Tolitoz Motherland Restaurant and Catering - Bremerton (WA)

4 /5 Marion H.: We tried the Kenyan beef stew and the sticky ribs. Everything was super delicious! The owner was very nice and friendly. Well definitely visit again.

5 /5 GWP: After seeing a post in this group we decided to try TOLITOZ MOTHERLAND today. We opted for the platter ($60) so we could try a variety of dishes. We chose the Huli Chicken, Butter Chicken, & Sticky Ribs for our entrees along with Naan bread, 3 sides, and Passion Fruit juice drinks. This fed 4 people with leftovers. The owner/Chef is from Kenya but has also worked in Dubai and other places throughout the world. The flavors were amazing and the chef clearly cares about the food he is preparing. You will order at the counter and take the food home. While you wait for your food to be freshly prepared (about 15 minutes) you can shop the rest of the store for the perfect wine pairing or spirits to complete your meal. Support a local! You wont regret it. Note: this restaurant is located inside the Pacific Liquor Store in the same parking lot as Churchs Chicken & across the street from the east Bremerton Kitsap Transit station.

5 /5 Stefan G: Finally a place in Bremerton with some unique and tasty dishes. Everything on the menu looks delicious. Their shawarma and lamb is on point and their samosas are super flavorful.

1 /5 Ann Jay: I was genuinely excited to try this place after seeing all the positive reviews. Unfortunately, I never even got the chance to taste the food. On multiple occasions, we went only to find the restaurant closed, with the explanation being "catering commitments." upon calling. While inconvenient, we gave them the benefit of the doubt. However, the final straw came when I called ahead to confirm they would be open, only to arrive and find a health department closure notice on the door. To make matters worse, I later received a call asking why I hadn’t just ordered online. With all due respect, as a customer, I should be able to choose whether to dine in, take out, or order online, and not be told how to engage with a business. Whats even more concerning is that the health notice clearly stated they were not permitted to operate, including catering, until it was lifted. Yet they continued to imply they were still fulfilling catering orders. Overall, this was a very unprofessional and frustrating experience. I won’t be attempting to try this place again.

5 /5 Marcus Oswalt: All I can say is it was so AMAZING! The flavor was something I’ve never had, so full. Every piece, magnificent. I can’t say enough good things, even the white rice was especially good. The Kalbi Beef, fantastic. The chef came out to speak to us, to ask us how we felt, he brought the flavors of the world into his restaurant. The Huli Huli chicken was amazing, had Sticky Ribs some cucumber salad and I was so blown away. I thought this might be the best food I’ve ever had. I hope this secret of a restaurant in the liquor store in East Bremerton is realized. There are a couple tables out front, perfect day. Can’t wait to go back
