AfriCali Dinner Parties
At Jikoni, chef Kiano Moju hosts dinner parties where guests gather around a shared table for a seasonal multi-course AfriCali meal.

The atmosphere is communal and social – like being invited to dinner at the chef’s home, rather than dining at a traditional restaurant.

Hosted at our Beverly Hills private dining room.
