"Lunch today. Very few people there, smelled musty, waiter was super sweet and kind but the food was way overpriced and plainly disgusting, also took forever to get our food and again, it was not busy. The chicken was old, rubbery, bad, so bad; the greens were from old frozen greens near sour, the sauces tasted like they we made with dirty dish water, smelled rank. My friend and I hated it and we tried we deeply wanted to like it esp because we liked the waiter. I gave mine back, maybe consumed 5% of it at most so hungry and i really wanted to like it but i jusr couldn't, so bad...my friend ate maybe 20% of her dish, tops...rice with beef, nothing fancy but also bad. She paid as i grabbed the car and they did not take any of the food off the bill charged us the full amount. Wow. My friend did not argue just wanted to get out and move on. I spent the last few hours trying to get that taste out of my mouth and just feeling sick about it all possibly the worst food of my life and I'm brave with trying new or different things. People should know it's really bad. ?"

I ordered a takeout the waiting period before they confirm get your order is unnecessary.The dry fish with ugali is my favorite, but their fish is too salty even for the lovers of salt. Not once,not twice l have experienced this,but now trending.

This is a must go for anyone visiting Seattle/Kent area. We were visiting from Boston. The atmosphere is very welcoming, the level of professionalism from our waiter was top notch, I just can’t remember his name but he received one big tip from us on Saturday 9/2/23. The food is out of this world. Rafiki, keep on shining! View menu

Rafiki!!! I visit every single week! That's how great their food is! I also love how friendly the staff is. I took a trip to Kenya with my family, and the food there was fantastic! Discovering that they have a restaurant near my home was such a joy for me, both in my heart and in my stomach, haha! The atmosphere is lovely and cozy as well.

Don’t think I’ll be coming back to get food from there, I ordered chicken, curry it was tasteless as hell It had no flavor no seasoning no salt to make matters worse. I also ordered grilled goat meat it came with no salt whatever no seasoning , meat was hard as a rock. Do not recommend !!!!!! what makes it worse it takes two hours to get your food.

Every time I visit this restaurant, I'm greeted by friendly staff, excellent service, and a delightful atmosphere. The food is fantastic and truly delicious. I would give it a perfect score of 10 out of 10! Nancy, the owner, is incredibly sweet, making the experience even better. If you're looking for a great spot to relax and enjoy some wonderful food, this is the place to be. Be sure to let them know Miss Vee sent you! View menu

The food and atmosphere here was AMAZING. My boss took my manager and I here for lunch and treated us to some of the best food I’ve ever had — we got the Fried fish, Chicken Curry, Beef stew and all 3 dishes were so flavorful and AMAZING. I crave the fried fish so much, it was the best I’ve ever had — we also got the Samosa and Sausages as appetizers and I couldn’t stop eating them. I 10/10 highly recommended Rafiki Restaurant! The staff were so amazing and welcoming and the whole energy was perfect! ??

I visited this restaurant for the first time on a Saturday night for the club experience, and I had a fantastic time! The security staff and hostess were very friendly and helpful. My 24-year-old son has autism, and they quickly recognized his needs and offered assistance. The sound system is outstanding! If you enjoy bass, this is definitely the place to be—there's even more bass than at Monkey Loft, and it's at least as good as Trinity. We’re looking forward to returning for more club nights, as well as trying the food!
