The food was so delicious, rice steak my favorite, i recommend.

Really good place to go.
I personally think it is a great restaurant.
I like it.
My kids did not because the food was too spicy.
At home, we purposely do not put hot peppers ? in the soup.
We put it on our individual plate.

I wish she had our option for kids.

Yet. I can understand that at a restaurant, you have to focus on the majority of customers and not specific groups or requests.
This is the one reason why I give it a 4 star interest of 5.??

Pre ordered my food was told 5 minutes get to the restaurant took there wasn’t greeted just stared at and walk past. Then a lady proceeded to ask me “What you want? Give her my order. The a little boy asks my order I give it to him he goes back to tell her. Now this is 3 times I’ve been asked my food. seems to me the lady had an attitude because I wanted fufu she huffs rolls her eyes. At this point keep the food I won’t be back.

Every time I place an order I’m told my food will be ready in 5 to 10 minutes. I always give it 20 to 30 minutes before showing up because it never fails my food is never ready as advised. I also noticed that when prepping or banging the food they never have gloves on. They’ll go from sitting around being on there phones, checking people out to heading directly into the kitchen. This last time I seen pots and bowls on the ground with food in them. Not sure if it was scraps or what but why not place the dishes on the counter top or table? Why not dispose of old food into a trash can or waste? As fare as how the food taste. It’s pretty good but I have my concerns from what I’ve witness and if I’ll ever get terrible sick one day. Customer service wise 1 through 10 I’ll give them a 8

"Madam Patience, I love your cooking, but for the benefit of customers who aren't from Liberia, could you please reduce the amount of pepper in your dishes? I found the food I bought from your restaurant to be too spicy ?️. I'd like to enjoy your cooking, but with a milder flavor. Thank you for considering this request!"

Best Liberian restaurant in Iowa. Trucker if you looking for good food check this place out.

I love African food but this place needs to learn not to be too heavy on the spice they should have mild at least...not saying I can't take spice because I'm Indian and Mexican. I eat all kinds of spices so if they made one that's with less spice I would be able to finish the whole damn thing..but since it's so overwhelmingly spicy I don't get my money's worth...I literally made beef curry and ate the fufu with that smh do better please if you want more people to come to your place of business....more people more money less spice more money and people ???

Remember before she opened her restaurant buying a pan of cassava leaves my family loved it! This was back in 2016. It's like crack in a pan! So flavorful! Also got into potatoes green and it was absolutely delicious! I order for pickup & it's quick.

Very fast and respectful service. The food was amazing. The spicy meals were very delicious and very spicy. Refreshing to finally have a spicy meal be spicy. Also the portions are very large. Ordered 3 meals for a group of 6, we split up the meals and still had lots of left overs.
