Jemima Abu
Such a great restaurant. The food was so fresh and came out immediately it was prepared so everything was nice and hot. Our server was very attentive as well. My favorite items on the menu were the jumbo spicy wings with a side of fried yam and plantain. The rice akara was also interesting (kind of a cross between plantain mosa and puff puff) so I’d recommend that too.

Really lovely staff and tasty food. This restaurant came highly recommended by my cousin, I haven’t eaten Sierra Leonean food in a long time. Everything was packaged and handled with care. I drove down from north London with my partner and we called ahead of time and they were really helpful on the phone, I will be happy todo it again. Thank you, Merry Christmas and God bless.

I have been to this restaurant a few times, this is the first time sitting in. Calabash serve numerous dishes from west African countries. The starters are expensive, Turkey tail £7. The main dish potato leaves from Sierra Leone was delicious. I also got the natural ginger juice delicious! Our waiter was nice, be expected to wait 30 mins for the main food. Aside from this I recommend.

When we arrived we had to wait a bit before finally being greeted and seated. The rice balls were nice, very tiny though. I had the cassava leaves soup with pounded yam. It wasn't that great, I just ate it because I was hungry. The pounded yam was nice though, with a nice texture. My Sierra Leonean friend said they skimped on the cassava leaves and that it tasted more like peanut soup. Imagine, he asked for boiled yam and they gave him fried yam instead! There was plastic bits in my wife's crain crain. The homemade ginger beer was decent, very fiery. Even though the waiter poured it out from what I think was a 500ml bottle into a glass in front of me, they charged me for a jug. This was not amended when I brought it to their attention when paying. We were disappointed with the whole experience and found it.a bit cheeky when the woman (the cook I think) told us to spread the word to others about the restaurant. They did apologise for the aforementioned issues but should also have made the necessary amendments such as giving us what we ordered and!/or taking money off the bill
