Got the goat curry rice and jollof rice and both of them were delicious. The vibe was small and empty and the server was ok. Would def come here for good African food
Catered for my mum’s 70th birthday party and the service is one I will not forget. The owner, Chi is an amazing human and she goes all out to ensure you are satisfied. Need to mention that ensuring she delivers a great service is her priority and not the money which is a rare thing to see these days. The best part is her food are mouth watering delicious dishes and the guests kept going back for more. My fave is the pasta Alfredo - easily five stars!
Decided to trek from near Ft. Sam for more African food. I’ve been to two in the area before now so wanted to branch out again. I was pleasantly surprised by my experience here at Ubuntu. I really enjoyed the egusi soup with chicken. My attendee had stewed beef and fried rice which was also delicious. Thank you for giving me a place to return to.
Must try place. We loved it. The portions are big, so be ready to stuff yourself or bring some back home (by the way they’ll put your leftovers in the to go boxes for you). Totally recommend the Joloff rice and goat meat, but the chicken is good too. Their seasoning is great. If you like spices this is the place to go. Spicy too, but on the side for those that are more sensitive which is great. The service is great: friendly and welcoming. Also there’s a bit of a wait for the meals to come out but that means your food is freshly made. We will definitely be back.
Amazing place for African food. Very gracious and hospitable staff. This is a well kept secret in San Antonio and definitely a must try for everyone! I had the fried rice, plantain and chicken and it was so tasty I ordered the fish and jollof rice to go. Will be back to try other items on the menu.
