I was working in Charlotte for a month, then finally I found this amazing place. My last 2weeks I ate here everyday. Food, service and staff polite and just as beautiful as the food served. Can't wait to come back. GOD WILLING!!
This food is better quality in the area. The curry chicken has been seasoned and very tasteful. The collard greens are fresh and not sitting around all day like some places do!! I was surprised to see that the food was still fresh looking close to closing!! I guess it means, the eat their own food. ⭐⭐⭐⭐
The food here is amazing. The Mac and cheese tastes homemade. The chicken must be slow cooked because it’s extra tender. The rice is great. The portion size is also good so the price is worth it. I can eat it a few times since I’m a light eater. I’ve never been disappointed eating here. Try it out!
