I recently visited Somie’s Bar & Kitchen and was pleasantly surprised by the cozy atmosphere and friendly service! 🌟
I ordered the Egusi soup and pounded yam, which had a comforting, homestyle feel, though I wish for a bit more spice to kick it up. The staff was attentive and patient, explaining the menu well to help us choose.
The highlight was definitely the drinks; they pack a punch! If you’re in the mood for a casual evening with live music and good vibes, this is a solid choice. I’ll be back to explore more of the menu! 🍹
