This is the only place I go for Egusi soup and Fufu! Every other place I tried is not flavorful and as expensive as this meal is, it needs to have all the flavor.

Can we just start with amazing! The service was phenomenal. They were so kind on the phone and so kind in person. I just knew I was going to get some good tasting food here. I ordered the goose soup with the foo foo and a ginger root drink. That ginger root drink is so, darn good! Matter fact, I’m gonna go ahead and order me another one tomorrow. Who is so flavorful the energy is on point. The location is perfect. There’s easy parking. I just love a location because it’s only two minutes from my house. You can feel love cooked in the food. I definitely recommend this place 10 out of 10. :)

I got the peanut butter soup and a side of plantains. Not only did they give me a ton of food, it was so good that I could have eaten it all in one sitting. I’m very much looking forward to the next time I order from this place.

Was referred by my girlfriend at work. I was able to try her attiéké and fell in love as I have never tried and had to go back. Well… 4 months later here we are. I was able to get some with wild caught snapper, decided to get a side of jollof and plantains. My oh my oh… the food was amazing. The fish was fried and delicious. The attiéké was good, it had a mild sour taste which with the container of oil and onions complimented so well. The jollof was good, not sure what grain was used as it wasn’t white rice but it was amazing. FYI I would suggest ordering ahead as when I went it and place an order at restaurant it took roughly 45 minutes as it’s made to order. Overall worth the wait ?????

Food was delicious and the portions make it family friendly shareable! We ordered the fried Snapper with white rice, jollof rice and chicken, and Egusi with fufu. Since it was the first time eating here, I will definitely go again to try other dishes!

Best African food in Frederick! Portion size is great and the flavor of every item is impeccable. I've been eating here for a few years but hadn't been there since the pandemic. Craved them my entire pregnancy but always craved them when they were closed lol. Finally went there today and ordered cassava stew and peanut butter stew both with FuFu. It was my first time getting fufu from this particular place and when I tell you the portion they give you, you won't get at any other spot! This was my toddlers first time having African food and he loved it. Will definitely come back. Tip: place your order ahead of time giving yourself an hour or so to get there. They make everything from scratch so be patience with them. Most who have complained about the wait times must not be familiar with African food. Perfection takes time!

The portion size was the best thing about the dishes.The dishes weren't as described at all. I order lafide with fish. I received brown rice with sautéed onions and hot peppers and a fried fish. There was no okra and that is the reason I ordered the dish.The attieke with fish was similar with couscous and cups of vegetables and a piece of fried fish. I was so excited to try African food and am left extremely disappointed. It took over an hour to prepare and over $20.00 a dish to be left disappointed. I really wanted to like it.
