My first exposure to Nigerian food! The beef suya was really tender and the spice on it was heavenly. I think it's going to take me several visits to master eating egusi with fufu, but that was very tasty too. The Suup! -- soursop soda is delicious and refreshing. The employees here are really friendly and helpful, and it has a great relaxed atmosphere.
Nice Environment & Clean❤
I ordered the egusi with goat meat. It was absolutely delicious. I don't know if it was the addition of the goat meat, but it was so savory and flavorful. Just all around a very good meal. I am definitely ordering it again in the future!
