Seafood okra with fufu, made fresh to order in under an hour. Perfectly spiced, good portion, nice presentation, still hot when I arrived home 45 minutes later. Would recommend catering services.

10/10. You won’t be disappointed! The food taste amazing and very fresh. Finally, west African food in the DMV that makes sense! The presentation alone is also award winning. Very pleased.

The packaging is 5 star. The food portion 5 star. The customer service is 5 star. I am so happy I didn't order a tray or half tray. I started with a plate of each item to give it a try. The plantain ended up in the trash, was very soggy and lot of oil underneath. The vegetable soup wasn't bad. The Jollof rice is just basic and nothing smoky. (I expected Jollof rice to be better than that). The meat okra? I believe it was just mixed in a stew. Overall I did not enjoy the food. If you are hungry and looking for something to eat without observing the taste of a food, then go for it. If you have a thing for a good taste of food, good luck.

Freshly made food with massive portion. Yes, you get your money worth. We ordered 2 plates of jollof and a plate of okra with assorted meat (the plates were filled up. He is extremely generous with the portions). The packaging is lit. He is fancy with the food and packaging. My man is an extreme food critic but he said, the chef is a professional cook. The assorted meat was well flavoured. The okra soup and jollof was good.He sells from his apartment. we paid before service. Be ready to pick up at his door.We had no problem with our order. He was polite.We are from Atlanta and it has been difficult finding a good restaurant here in BWI each time we visit.I definitely will come back again.

100% recommend. I’ve been trying to introduce African cuisine to my son, but he wouldn’t eat anything after the first taste. He tasted Chef John’s okra stew and instantly asked for more. He was so excited we finally found African food he loved. It was such a beautiful moment for my family. The food presentation, quality, and portion size were all outstanding.
I found this place while I was looking for African food near me. I was a little skeptical given the very few reviews and the fact that the address is an apartment.It is indeed not a restaurant but a carry out run in the chef’s apartment.I became extra skeptical when he wanted me to make payment upfront through Zelle or cashap so I decided to just order one item.Fast forward, he texted me to say the food was ready. To my surprise the food came presented in really nice containers and well packaged. I couldn’t wait to get home and give it a try. I am happy to report that the food tastes really good. He literally killed every single item. I will definitely order more items and update my reviews.Things to note:-He’s currently operating out of an apartment, I think it’s take out only from my experience.- I think he’s a real chef, no kidding.
Wheelchair accessibility: It’s take out only. NA
