I hate to leave a critical review here, because I am so happy to have this kind of cuisine in Greensboro. The food was very tasty (I was delighted to see they had a vegetarian/vegan plate), and the people who work here seem really sweet. However, the wait time was disappointing. I called in a pickup order, was told to retrieve it in 30 minutes, and then stood waiting an additional 40 minutes before the single item I had ordered was ready.

The people who work here really do seem kind and friendly, and they apologized repeatedly for the long wait.

I assured her that I've been eating cassava leaf for years and have been to multiple restaurants in multiple states and know when I'm eating collard greens. She offered a free plate of any meat, rice, etc combo since I didn't like the food. For that reason, I give them a 4 because of their service and professionalism! Also, the curry goat (replacement meal) was amazing! Very...
