was not blown away. i was very excited to finally try thisplaceand went there for supper the other day. i may of over-hyped myself before i got there because i was expecting a little more from the food. that being said both our meals (goat curry, spicy peanut shrimp) were very good and we had no complaints with anything, except maybe thought prices were a little high. overall it was a good dining experience, but everyone had thisplacehyped up so much we were just expecting a little more. i did like it, but probably will not be back as it didn't leave much of an impression on me.

it was good. we just went last friday for a birthday and i was not blown away, but it was still good. i ordered the ox tale which was described as being a lean tender beef. i have never had ox tale before and so when it came i was a bit disappointed. the meat was very fatty and it was mostly bone in the centre and had a little bit of meat on the outside of the bone. the meat that i could find was very good and soft, however there was a lot of fat and i am not a fan of fat. the potatoes that came with my dish were very good and so were the vegetables. however for $22 it was very expensive since it was mostly potatoes and maybe 2 - 3 oz of meat. next time i will get the rib special, which looked excellent. the johnny cakes are like thick elephant ears and are very good with some sauce that is on the table.

it was ok. i went for lunch and expected to have the supper menu since thats what is online. i was sadly disappointed by the menu to be honest, more of a canadian burgerplacethen african fair.

will have to return in the evening to try what i actually wanted. you would have better luck eating somewhere else for something authentic during lunch.

where did this gem come from?!?!. wow...thisplaceis good on every level. i went here with my wife an our friend earlier this evening, so i'll walk readers through our experience.

we reserved a table, so when we got there glasses of icewater were waiting. we were also greeted by an incredibly nice and attentive waitress. we received a tasty starter: deep fried johnny-cakes. i could eat these every day for the rest of my life. next came our apps. my wife and i both had the soup (tonight's was a pumpkin soup with chicken, potatoes, and beans), while our friend had a caesar salad. everything...everything was made from scratch, to our hearty soups to the authentic caesar salad dressing with anchovies. a beautiful start. oh, and even though we ordered the small soups and half salad, our portions were more than adequate.

next was entres. i ordered the west indian curry chicken off the menu. it was a delicious dish that came with a coconut rice with red beans. a cold can of coconut water was the perfect drink to accompany the meal. my wife had a rib special, pork with a slightly spicy mango sauce. they were cooked beautifully. our friend had a spicy mahi mahi. although it was spicy from the jerk sauce, she said it may have been the best piece of fish she's ever had in a resaurant. i had a bite, and i agree, it was tremendous. both of their dishes came with side of roasted potatoes which were carmalized and tasty.

we couldn't resist, so we chased it down with a round of key lime pie. it was the perfect finish.

i'll close by mentioning a couple things. thisplacehas a great, laid-back and friendly atmosphere. we were greeted by the owner and the chef, and all of the waitstaff clearly love coming to work. the prices might shock someone who is looking for a cheaper eatery, but i assure you this meal was worth every penny. lastly, don't be afraid of the condimints. they are an adventure in themselves. bravo konga, you have three new fans.

another night, another awesome time. i went there last night with my wife and some friends. i had the ribs with the house salad, and it was, as usual, great. everyone with us likes the place. my wife had the spicy peanut shrimp and potatoes and was happy with it as well.

the staff is cheerful & friendly, the food is great. why wouldn't you go there?

ps
make a reservation if you go, they are almost always packed.

awesome staff. the food, as usual, was at it's usual high standard but what truly sets thisplaceapart from any other restaurants i have been to in saskatoon is the staff. the wait staff treats you like close friends, the owner is always friendly and even though they are busy, the waitresses are attentive, friendly and always helpful.

i could talk about the food as well, but this has been well covered by everyone else here. one of the people i regularly go with has yet to order from the menu, as he loves the specials so much (mahi-mahi, ribs or curried goat).

this is the best restaurant in saskatoon.

i've heard lots of good things about thisplaceso i was excited to try thisplaceout.  the wraps were good but the flavouring was not as spicy as i was expecting. the spicy peanut dish was good but again it was not as spicy as anticipated.  my companions and i enjoyed our meal but overall wanted better flavouring.  service was great.

thisplacewas unreal!
pretty sure i'm willing to call it the best food in the city, amazing atmosphere and friendly staff.

best, most tender, perfectly done pork chops i've ever had.. they can jerk my chops any day! also tried the chicken soup, bbq ribs, jerk mahi mahi and jerk chicken all of which were off the charts good and had the whole family commending my choice in eatery. portions were perfect for me, probably even too much for most.

convinced my family to go there when they were in the city to visit, had been wanting to try thisplacealready 2 years ago but couldn't convince my friend to go.. what a mistake he made lol.

will definitely be going back and taking any visitors to the city who haven't tried it.

place looked like a promising hole in the wall.  wait staff very friendly,placewas busy.  food was mediocre.  i had mahi mahi.  flavours were great but fish was over cooked and dry.  rice and beans were really dry and veggies were cold. the kids chicken fingers tasted good.  nice light batter.   roasted potatoes were really good. just like at home.  atmosphere is good.  overall it wasn't horrible but won't be on the list for first choices when visiting the city.

it is located at the bottom of caswell hill in saskatoon and features an amazing assortment of caribbean food and fare.  being from guyana, it feels like i have travelled back in time and can eat some of the food that i grew up with. when we go to the restaurant, it doesn’t feel like we are going out to eat in an establishment but rather like we are going over to a friendsplaceto eat their excellent home cooking.  from the first time we went, we were made to feel at home at the konga cafe.  it has a festive laid back atmosphere.  not only are you chatting with your server but chatting with other guests.
