We were able to walk in on AMS and get a full plate of tasty food for a super reasonable price! I’d never tried Surinamese food before but it was on my friend’s list of foods to try and this place didn’t disappoint. Chicken and noodles paired with green beans and pickles was excellent! Probably I ate too much for a AMS before a night out and I still didn’t finish it all. Would highly recommend. Atmosphere is funny as well. Staff were very vibrant and helpful.

Some of my favorite Surinamese food in West. Shirley is super welcoming and the food is consistently great! If you’re looking to introduce someone to Surinamese food, I’d recommend trying this place out!
