We were luckily to catch patois food’s residency at Loop and throughly enjoyed our meal! We can’t wait to try her food again and loved the atmosphere and friendliness of the Loop staff. We’ll definitely be going back soon.

Nice food - does go cold very quickly. The sauces make the meat. They're cooked well and very tender, but without the sauces it's quite basic (seasoning wise). Would recommend only 1x rice for a group of 3/4. Tasty and ticked off the TikTok list.
