We were a party of three, and we opted to order the appetizer platter. Unfortunately, the server let us know that they didn't have a lot of what was on it (they only had meat pies and puff puff). We all ordered jollof rice, which was incredibly flavorful. I got the moi moi, talk about insanely delicious and the fried yam. The stew that came with it for dipping was again so good. My mum had the salmon, which she said was a little on the dry side, but still had a nice flavor. My daughter had the beef and fried plantains. She said it was delicious, and I concur that it was since I took a bite. The service was so so after we got our food. It could've been because it was a Friday night, and they had a lot of take out orders. The staff was nice and welcoming, though.

I highly recommend going to eat here. The food is very authentic and so full of flavor, and you won't break the bank.

Found this gem while visiting from VA! The best Nigerian food on the East Coast! The service was amazing, the location and ambiance of the restaurant warm and welcoming! If ever I find myself In Massachusetts again, I’d definitely find my way back to wonderful spot!

This place is absolutely amazing! It's my go-to spot whenever I'm in the mood for some incredible West African cuisine. I'd happily drive an hour just to savor the delicious food they serve.

I order from Uber Eats at this restaurant for quite some time now and I must say, you guys are disappointing the Naija culture. If I am writing this, that means you guys got me mad to the point I am typing up this review. Abegoo, food quality is to the pits of hell. What are you serving your people? Food has no flavor, no seasoning. Where is the maggie? Clearly, non existent. Besides the prices of a plate? Diabolical-

First time at Obosa. The egusi stew with fish was a good shareable platter that had a mild kick to it and a yummy grilled fish flavor. Be careful of fish bones. I never had pounded yam before - it had the consistency of bland mochi. I much rather have the jollof to pair with the stew. The puff puff had a consistency crossed between fried dough from the beach and sugar donut holes. My recommendation to the owner is to set up the table settings before guests arrive. It got awkward at times when we sat waiting for utensils and enough napkins to eat the good food. It also was confusing to serve ourselves drinks from the fridge.
