Wow, first and last time here (8/22/23)I ordered two entrees (palasas w/fish) and I called to confirm if hot sauce would be placed in the bag. The person who answered the phone seemed frustrated that I called to confirm this (which should have been my first sign) and stated “you don’t have to call for this , you could just include it in the app). I choose to call because although one may request hot sauce (even with in person orders) there’s still a chance you may not receive it. When I finally received my order the oil and sauce was all over the bag which got all over my clothes (I am nurse practitioner) on duty. I called to speak with the manager and the owner answered and spoke very aggressively to me stating he’s the only employee at the store. You do not take that out on customers. He then stated that “ obviously the Uber driver spilled it”. It is not obvious to a first time customer and to me it seems as if poor packaging was used. The food had so much oil in it, I felt sick after one bite. Due to the owner’s nasty customer service, I will not be returning or ordering again from this place !

I had a very delightful experience when I visited Mansa Kunda Restaurant yesterday evening. When I entered the restaurant, I was immediately impressed by the decor, which made me reminisce about my travels to Senegal and the Gambia. The menu has several appealing dishes, and we chose Yassa with fish, Oxtail Stew, and Jollof Rice. The portions were large and the food was delicious. For dessert, we had toasted almond bread pudding and blueberry pound cake with a blueberry glaze, and I was pleasantly surprised when they added a candle to my cake and sang happy birthday to me. The service was awesome. I highly recommend this restaurant, and I look forward to visiting again.

This was hands down a 5/5 experience. I’ll start by saying Hatib, the owner, was so kind and confident about his menu. He helped guide me and my vegan friend through the menu. We ended up ordering Che Bu Jain with Beef and the Yassa with Tofu and wowwww. First off, as a non vegan, I have to say the Yassa with tofu is some of the best food I’ve had to date. This is a plant based/vegan paradise as the owner is a vegetarian that has carefully crafted a menu that seamlessly has delicious vegan and non vegan food. The Che Bu Jain was also a 10/10. This restaurant is a gem that I regret not discovering earlier. The owner is kind, and deeply cares for his customers, culture and cuisine. The ambience of the space is also amazing. It’s a great place to do work or just hang out. I’ll be here regularly and I hope this review is your sign to come visit. Bonus, the owner is a phenomenal baker with both vegan and non vegan desserts.

This was my second time at Mansa Kunda. The food is delicious. My sister and I ordered the vegetable pies, meat pies, and akara fritters. The appetizers were amazing! My sister had beef with jollof and I had paneer with jollof. We loved our food. I also had the hibiscus juice.

Our book club had a wonderful dinner and discussion. The food was delicious and unique and interesting. The art work was just as interesting as the food. I had peanut stew and FuFu it was delicious and I highly recommend this dish. We had an assortment of appetizers and desserts they were all amazing.

All of the meat was cooked to perfection, every single thing we ordered was a hit! I believe it was Hatib that helped us & he was lovely! Can’t wait to come back to try more, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

My friend and I loved our experience at Mansa Kunda! Yes I said experience because the tasty food, beautiful art on the walls, bar stools made from large drums, great cultural conversation about the origin of jollof rice (Senegambian) with the server and I believe owner, was more than you normally expect from a night out for dinner. We had fried plantains which were not greasy like some I’ve had in other places. The benachin (jollof meal) had the best jollof rice I’ve ever had. FYI I’m an American but I’ve had jollof from both a Nigerian auntie and a Ghanaian friend! I also had a very yummy shito flatbread with fish. Oh and the desserts were amazing! Most were gluten free and vegan. We tried 4!! I can’t wait to bring my family and friends!!

Sincerely appreciate that they can make nearly any dish vegan! Have been a few times now and everything is always so delicious. Service is great and the outdoor tables are also a big plus!

Terrible customer service. I ordered the jollof rice with chicken and the chicken tasted horrible/old. I asked manager to switch out food for something else on their menu and they did not want to, even gave a little attitude. So I will not be back and I do not recommend this spot at all. If I could give zero stars, I definitely would. This place needs to go and make space for another restaurant that will have great food and great customer service. I am looking forward to KOMA opening soon.
