Ubuntu Meat Bar & Safari Spice Grill

Absolutely loved our experience at Ubuntu Grill in Everett! The food was amazing - fresh, flavourful, and deeply authentic. The chef is Malawian, and you can truly taste the heart and tradition in every bite. We had the samosas, Nsiima, goat stew, and chicken wings. Each dish was spot-on and brilliantly done. The goat stew was rich and tender, the wings perfectly seasoned, and the Nsiima took us straight to Southern Africa. We’re already planning to go back often. Highly recommend!

Ubuntu Bar & Grill is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and from the moment we walked in, we felt like we were in good hands. The owner, Patrick, was incredibly kind and hospitable—and knowing that he personally cooks all the food made the experience even more special. We were blown away by the flavors. The garlic steak was perfectly seasoned and juicy, the short ribs were melt-in-your-mouth tender, and the plantains were the ideal balance of sweet and savory. Every dish was clearly made with care and passion. You can feel the love in both the food and the service at Ubuntu. Patrick has created something truly special here—we can’t wait to come back!

Food was delicious, came here with my dad on a recommendation. New to the cuisine but had fabulous guidance. I must say, although the bread (Parotta) was amazing by itself, you gotta save it for the oxtail stew. We also got Peri Peri Chicken, Jollof, South African Yellow Rice, and Chakalaka. 10/10 will come again with the whole family next time.

The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Patrick was super helpful and kind in teaching us about the different dishes and sides. We ordered the lamp chops, goat stew, and tilapia. Such a great experience and the prices for the amount of food you got was amazing.

This place is unique from the african art on the walls to the delicious food that won't be found anywhere else in Everett the plantains were mildly sweet that contrasted well with the light charring. The oxtail stew was delicious tender and flavorful. The grilled pineapple is a must try it's reminiscent of a great bread pudding. Nsima pairs with everything since it has little flavor but a thick mashed potatoes texture that is really pleasant. The dino rib is super tender and massive. The steak bites though large to be called bites were seasoned well and cooked to perfect medium. The turkey samosas are crispy and meaty with a roasted pepper forward flavor that is wonderful. The peri peri chicken has just the right amount of spice. The picanha was juicy.

This place is on fire with their food and service! As soon as we entered, we connected instantly with hospitality and friendly nature. Orders are placed through a QR code at each table. Menu is varied from different cultures but must try the South African dishes—brings you home! Highly recommended and you will leave happy and filled. Enjoy!

Lovely space, great service, beautiful and delicious food. I had the peri peri chicken, greens, nsima (pap), and chombe tea. Portions were quite generous, and they gave me complimentary grilled pineapple while my meal was being prepared. Highly recommend.

We ordered several cuisines from the popular menu: oxtail stew, peri peri chicken, nsima, and mango lassi. Braised oxtail itself was tender and lovely; peri peri chicken was flavorful and amazing; nsima was soft and well prepared; and mango lassi was delicious of course. 10/10 recommended - they were big portions as well! Chef brought fabulous Malawi and South African traditions to Seattle with love!

Not sure that this place is real. Placed a decently sized order early in the evening - an hour later the delivery driver said they turned him down and weren't taking orders. I called their number and no one picked up. Felt really bad for wasting the driver's time. Beware ordering and if you're willing to risk it then make sure you have a backup
