This place is hit and miss. I've been getting food from here for about 8years. I have to say the portion and quality has gone way past subpar. It's $24.99 for 3 pieces of meat i always choose chicken leg but have had the goat and its tasty, and vegetable stew. The last 3 times I've ordered this same dish the container was barely full and all I got was 2 pieces of meat. This last time it was a chicken leg and a half. I'm already paying 18 bucks more to get it delivered so it's not worth it any more if the portion listed isnt getting delivered. Oh and the size of the fufu also varies. I learn to order and pay $5 just to have enough to eat the small portion size the stew has now become. I hate to say this, but I now feel I must. Don't waste your money on delivery. I've only eaten inside twice and the portion size like most places is a lot better. However, I have not been inside in over 4 years. It saddens me that I need to find a new establishment to get my African food.

I am west African, and just came from the motherland and I was craving west African food again. I found this the closest spot and stopped to grab a much needed bite. I should've read the reviews first.As people are saying, really mean vibe in the customer service, and the food is so bland. Were it not for the hunger I am feeling right now, plus the absurd price, I will just throw the food out. I am hissing as I am eating it sef. The jollof is so dry (so much for Nigerian jollof being the best) and there was no onion sauce to accompany it, the sauce i got tasted like BBQ sauce mixed with ketchup. The plantains felt like rubber and the forks couldn't even stick it..The portions were so tiny I thought it was a mistake. And ordering was waaay too much more of a hassle than it should've been. Maybe I met them one bad day but 1st and last time here.Do NOT recommend!!!! Tofiakwa!!

Had the jollof rice with chicken, lamb, and tripe. The chicken was my favorite part - juicy, flavorful, and fall-off-the-bone soft. The tripe and lamb were tougher than my taste. The lady who works there was very kind and attentive. The space is quite small and simple - a very hole-in-the-wall kind of vibe. Unfortunately, I must deduct a star for two reasons: the meal was very expensive compared to other options in the area ($30 after tax and tip), and I would've needed to pay a $2 fee to use my credit card had I not had any cash. The food is good, but bring cash - quite a bit of it.

The food is a complete mess, it doesn't not represent Nigerian food in any capacity. it taste like some leftover food from weeks ago, the meat and the fish tasted like shit. this restaurant need to be reported to the dept. of food and safety....

This place is just not it. The food was bland and the meat was too tough and nauseous. Not authentic Nigeria food at all.
