Poor Taste, that’s not how Nigerian food tastes
My son and I went there twice in one week! Yes! We thought the food was absolutely exquisite and just the perfect amount of savory. Their meat pie was also delicious. As a matter of fact, my son and I will be going there again today. 😃 Not only was the food amazing but the customer service was definitely up to par as well.

I was in town from Massachusetts where we have a healthy Nigerian community and good Nigerian food available. I took a chance ordering from this place and was not disappointed! The food was delicious! Another friend who’s been in the US for just over a year now said this is the best Nigerian food they’ve had since being here. The white soup/Naala was amazing! Efo Riro/vegetable soup was delicious and the jollof was fine.
I was so impressed by the food I went in person the day I was flying out to get more to bring home. It was that delicious! The cook was sweet and accommodating.

A lovely place, food was so good. It was my first time trying the food so I was recommended the Egusi and Fufu. I chose goat meat and spicy. Loved it. It was so flavorful. The spice had a nice earthy heat and it calmed down rather quickly. I enjoyed this so much.

These people were so sweet, the place had such a nice vibe and greeted us with a smile, I feel like this place is super underrated and deserves way more attention. The food is out of this world, it’s so worth trying!!

My niece was visiting me for the weekend and was craving fufu. She looked up this place and we gave it a try. No regrets, fufu was delicious and the service was great! Will come back to try the other dishes.

We ordered lunch here and was pleasantly surprised by the amount of food offered. Bitterleaf soup with goat was delicious. My joloff rice and fried fish were slightly under seasoned for my taste but was good overall.

The bitter leaf soup I tried for the first time was incredibly tasty. They generously added a good amount of fish, making it even more flavorful. The server kindly offered me the option of having it spicy or not, and although it had a slight kick, it was just the right amount of spice. I enjoyed it so much that I plan on going back for another bowl. In fact, I prefer it over the egusi soup, as my previous experience with the egusi was a bit too salty.I do not suggest trying the chicken or the jollof rice. The taste was lacking, and the chicken was tough and flavorless. I will not order that dish again. So far, I have sampled three dishes from this establishment, and my favorite is the bitter leaf soup. At a certain moment, I ended up purchasing $60 worth of food out of curiosity to explore new flavors. However, I have come to the realization that this establishment does not justify the price tag. It was disheartening to spend such a sum on the food I received, especially considering that the taste did not meet my expectations. I had paid $24 for a single dish, which wasn't too terrible, it was delicious but it taught me a valuable lesson. Henceforth, I will opt to purchase multiple items at once, ensuring that my money is well-spent.The customer service is satisfactory. From now on, the bitter leaf soup is my absolute favorite. I highly recommend it for its deliciousness. Additionally, the restaurant had a very clean environment.

I have to come here again on an empty stomach. The portion to cost ratio is soooo good. We ordered jollof, egusi and okra soup. The jollof and egusi was really good, I would come back to have again. But I personally ordered okra soup. I thought no one could make okra as good as my mom, but I don't know how they did it, it was delicious!! I got the spicy, which I think is better because you don't want to have bland okra. I wish I got 2. The fufu was nice and soft, it was my first time having it and I can't believe I missed out. I got chicken as well, it was pretty good. The goat meat on the other dishes was so soft, my friend accidentally flung the bone across the table. Also while we were eating we ate puff puffs and meat pie, they were super filling and very nice. I can't wait to come back and try more dishes.

Food was alright, not worth what I paid. Service was horrible, cashier was rude, but I went cause I wanted to try it based on a review from instagram.
