No, but there have been good reviews on www.allearsnet.com

I miss the old Tusker House.

I didn't see any reviews on allears. Checked the main page and the reviews page.

Nope but we did Dinner, maybe it's similar. It was VERY good and we will be back. Wonderful food and wonderful service.

From the new Tusker House Dinner.

Apple and Endive Salad with Blue Cheese Bits and Bacon, Hummus and Babaganoush(sp) with two types of flat breads.

Curried Rice, Pearl Cous Cous, Seafood and Lamb Stews

Pork Lion with Kenyan Coffee glaze, Prime Rib, Samoskas(sp), Cold curried rice salad with golden raisins, Curried chicken and Chocolate Mango bread w/ butter.

Same stuff but this plate also has some mango chutney and cous cous with tomatoes.

Saved room for the best part...White chocolate macadamia nut cookie, white brownie, chocolate/pecan tart, chocolate cake with passion fruit, cinnamon banana bread pudding with vanilla sauce and pistachio flan.

2angels - Wow! That looks delicious! Almost a little like Boma, which I love.
Thank you for posting the pics. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'll be adding this one on for our next trip.

Did you think it was too similar to the menu at Boma? I have us scheduled there for lunch early and then Boma for dinner because I wanted to eat at AKL. I tend to pick at buffet's so the amount of food isn't an issue, it is more if it is the same. If you think they are too similar- any other options to give my day at AK and AKL a chance? Thanks

Some of the food was very similar to Boma's. It might be overkill but then again we LOVE Boma's and would do it twice in one day (if they offered lunch). I would suggest maybe Yak & Yeti for lunch and dinner at Bomas?

It was a lot like Boma. As it was the holiday weekend, the prices were jacked up a few dollars to $23.99 for lunch and $30.99 for dinner. I was surprised to see the prime rib for lunch, which was very good. Overall very good but a bit expensive. It was not crowded, 12:30 on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, so maybe the crowds agree on that assessment. I would not do Boma and this restaurant on the same day.
