Bissap is a great restaurant nestled in downtown Oakland, a few blocks away from the 12th Street Oakland BÀRT train station!. Vibrant atmosphere, colorful African paintings, and music. For best value, at $10.99, try the lunch buffet-flavorful veggies, spicy red black eyed peas,chicken drumsticks in peanut sauce, plantains and salad. Be sure to get the delicious creamy dressing and the spicy orange sauce for the eat. It's not an all you can eat buffet, you can get two helpings only, so pile up your plate! The dinner menu has the same dishes, us a few more. I don't recommend the lamb, it was tough and chewy. The shrimp with coconut is tasty. Dinner is more costly, and the meat portions are tiny. There are tropical cocktails, made with tamarind, a ginger margarita, and more... The tall drinks are pretty and festive, but full of ice, so only a small drink.

I'm glad this spot has reopened. The live music playing as I walked by tonight was all the invitation I needed. I never went in when they were open previously-- for no particular reason except I never made the time. I'm glad they're back. Based on my brief visit tonight, I'll be back too.
