Customer Reviews

"It should be 5 stars, but they don't have somewhere you can sit to enjoy the absolute delicacy they serve. The Bole is not unripe but not too ripe; it's perfect. The sauce is to die for, and the turkey and fish are delicious. I hate that I discovered them too late into my time in benin."
