| - We have been to this place twice. The first time was just shortly after they opened and they had a very limited and casual menu. This Kenyan fusion thing was very strange. We ordered a combination plate that had several different items on it, because we thought it would be fun to try things we hadn't eaten before. After sampling each one, we decided we wouldn't be trying those things again, and probably wouldn't be coming back to this restaurant again. We were there for dinner during the week and were the only ones in the place, which is scary to begin with.
I went again tonite with friends who had been there before, and said they enjoyed it. So, I'm game, I'll try any place twice. But after this experience, I will never go back again.
I know some people will gag when I say this, but I love liver and onions, and when I see it on the menu, I will order it. The menu had quite expanded, and was much more upscale than the first time we visited, as were the prices. Liver and onions was $19.95. My friends had the pork chop the last time they were in, and they ordered it again. Our waitress, who was the only waitsperson in the place while we were there, was incredibly incompetent. I won't go into our complaints with her. She was bad enough, tho, that I left no tip. I have never done that in my life. But I digress.
The plates of food were huge. My friends said their pork chops were good, but neither ate the veggies (carrots, asparagus, green beans) because they said they were too raw (I wished I could have eaten them off their plates!) When I ordered the liver, I told the waitress that I wanted it medium, to tell the cook to please not overcook it. When it arrived, it was buried in a huge pile of deep fried onion pieces, with a few pieces of asparagus on the side, and plain mashed potatoes. A small dish of what appeared to be gravy with chopped carrots in it was on the plate. I tasted the gravy and it was overwhelmed with vinegar. When I finally got the waitress's attention, I asked for some other kind of gravy that wasn't so sour. She brought out a bowl of what looked exactly like what I had, sans carrots, and in tasting it, it was exactly the same. I pushed it out of the way, and someone from the kitchen came out and after talking to him, he brought out another bowl of "gravy" which was better, but still vinegary.
After digging through the deep fried onions, I got down to a thick piece of liver, cooked to death and all but inedible. I ate the asparagus which was perfect, and a couple of bites of plain potato, and left the rest. When the waitress finally came back to our table, she asked if I was still working on it, and I said I couldn't eat any of it, because it was awful. She took it away. My friends finished their dinners, and we waited at least 15-20mins for our check, finally calling out to the waitress and asking her for the bill. She brought me my bill for $28+ ( I had a beer), and when she came to collect, I said she should be ashamed for charging me for that meal, especially since it was obvious nothing had been eaten. She said "Why should I be ashamed", and took my credit card and rang it up. My friends asked for coffee after our meal, and the waitress said she would have to make a new pot and it would take about 4-5 mins. After waiting almost 15 mins, we left . I should have called the manager or owner and complained to him, but I didn't. I just decided it was lesson learned, and I would never go back.
