“I had never eaten Nigerian food, and the staff was very helpful in recommending dishes. I got the egusi with fufu, beef and chicken. They were also helpful in telling me how to eat it. I really enjoyed the food and will definitely be coming back. Now I just have to figure out how to reheat the fufu so I can finish my leftovers!“

“It’s about time Chicago gets solid West African cuisine. Dozzy didn’t disappoint. Had the Designer Jollof Rice Bowl and it was delicious. I combined it with a couple orders of the shrimp suya sticks which put it over the top. Now, I loved the jollof, but that’s to be expected. What wasn’t expected was the shrimp. I can honestly say it was some of the best I’ve ever had. The herbs were perfect and it was grilled just the way I like it. I’ve known Dozzy for a long time and I’m so happy he’s sharing his gift to the world. Y’all get some.“
