The food here is always so delicious and the chef owner always comes out to ask how everything was and thanks us for coming in. I love the setting. Hard to believe this place isn’t packed, but it was nice to have a place to catch up with two friends and the warm breeze wafting through the open windows. LOVE this place!

This is definitely a trip worth to make to Watertown. The flavors of Nzuko dishes hit my palate perfectly. The chef has unique flavor combinations and tons of signature secrets. Worth the trip!

Reserved a table for Mother’s Day and it went great. The service and the food were excellent. The rum cake was the best.

Unique restaurant serving a fusion of Caribbean and Mediterranean food. A little off the beaten path but well worth a visit. Overall food was well executed and delicious! Highlights include Hummus, plantains, falafel. Plenty of meat dishes but also seafood and non-meat/vegan; great place for variety of tastes. Service was friendly and relaxed.
