Stango Cuisine - Champaign

Friendly place with great food. You have a number of sampler plates here that is ingenious to try new things and you get to choose the pages! We share Emma's dish, the delicious meat and vegetables selection offered.

I can't believe I'm so good. I've been living in the area for years and had this for the first time. Probably one of the underestimated restaurants in the entire Urbana-Champaign area. When someone from Brazil I will say these flavors reminded me of home a little. I had the oxtail with beans and rice, a side of fried plantains, beef cakes, ginger tea and beignets. Everything was on the spot, tasty and fresh. If you have not tried sambique food before and you enjoy Mexican or general Latin American flavors, this will meet a lot of this craving. If you are still not sure whether to go, remember that this is the ONLY Sambische restaurant throughout North America, so enjoy an experience that few had/will have the pleasure.

Five stars. This is the kind of food that makes your soul happy. It's warm, secret, tasteful. Everything is cooked to absolute perfection, tender with love and care to any dish and ingredient. If you're not here yet and you live in the area, that's a must try! Plantains, beef, Nshima, everything is good, you won't go wrong!

Oxtail tasted really good! Fried plantains is a must try side.

Chicken pie from the Stango booth at Flannel Fest. Amazing. Lots of warm curry like spice and comfort and flaky fresh crust.
