The chicken was so tender and the rice was cooked to perfection. Sofia is the chef and owner, she’s truly inspirational as she took the time to speak to us.

This place is so cute! We looked up black-owned restaurants and decided upon this place based on the reviews! The interior is cute and quaint-very warm, welcoming and cozy. The music was vibing! We had okra soup, the steak and fish dish. The meal took a little while to come out but bwoy was it worth it! The owner was also present and is very welcoming, a gracious host! We're glad we decided on this choice for dinner! Wishing the business continued success!!! If anyone is in the Lisboa area
