Ordered Egusi and Fufu to-go, only to get home, and see this soup. I might be miles away from Nigeria, but no way this is Egusi.

I enjoyed the food so much, as a Nigerian it really reminded me of home! Taste so so good, you definitely get your moneys worth I would go again. Take my word for it! There is even evidence we cleared the plate.

I I really don’t do reviews, but this lady made me made a review for her restaurant. If you want to be disappointed in a restaurant especially this African restaurant I’m not I’m not from Nigeria, but on two occasions this lady really really gave me a very bad attitude and attention and if I had to explain what she did, I’ll take the whole day that she’s so rude, she’s unprofessional and besides Restaurant is not even clean that’s all I can say she is so rude this restaurant that’s why it looks dead all the time because of poooor customer relations OMG!!!!!!

Drove 50 mins from Great Lakes to get african food, and this food was perfect. Taste and quality were wonderful. Owner service could have been better, but the food overpowered the service, worth the drive

The black menu is priced correctly and the white one is TOO high. Chicken and white rice is $16 not including taxes, and tip.

This food was so delicious. It has so much flavor. It tasted like it came out of someone’s grandma’s kitchen! The atmosphere isn’t the prettiest but the service was great. The last was super nice and attentive. Going to go back with more family and friends! If you’re looking for homemade African food please come here! I got the fufu with egusi soup. My sister had the jollof rice and chicken.

I am visiting Chicago with my partner and friends for a Navy Graduation. The graduate is Nigerian and requested his first meal be African food. We drove 45 min and the experience was well worth it.We ordered multiple dishes including, fufu, egusi, jollof, ayamase and different meats. We are all stuffed and HAPPY.The establishment felt homey and the food was made with love.You have to visit even if your drive is 45 min, it’s worth it ☺️
