The best Jallof Rice in Laurel! Not overcooked and seasoned to perfection. My son is a picky eater and I introduced him to Vieve's food, no complaints! The service is wonderful. Will be bringing the whole family here. Thank you!

Was very excited to eat here. If you look American, the man at the register sits there and stares at you like you have 2 heads. You will also be overcharged and questioned about your eat habits. The price on the menu for okra soup with fish and 1 side is 18.99. I also ordered plantain for 7.99. When he rang it up but then overcharged me the okra soup at $21.99 and then taxed me after that. When I asked him about it, he acted like I was going to be too dumb to notice and said it’s just tax and quickly changed the screen; I told him to go back. When I pointed it out to him that it’s a different price from the menu he said it’s because of the rice. The menu says the okra soup includes a side (choice between rice, bakku and something else). He told me he can remove my side to lower the price to the menu price. I said I just want what’s on the menu. At that point I was so pissed I just left and said forget the order. I don’t like that type of treatment at all

What is it with new businesses and outrageous pricing? How do you sell one grilled tilapia for $21? Please do your research about factors like atmosphere, pricing, location of your competitors before overpricing your stuff.
How do you expect first time customers to comeback which such outrageous prices? Smh

This is my favorite african restaurant by far!!! Their food will put a smile on your face!!
I had the Jollof with plantain and kelewele. Everything tasted great! I just wish there was less grease. Then the food would’ve been perfect. Also, I think the Jollof would’ve been even better if it had veggies mixed into it.
My friend had Banku with peanut butter soup. She absolutely loved it! I would go back again and let them know my preference to see if they’d change it up some.
We were looking for a seafood restaurant that the hotel recommended. But we went to the wrong location, and it was just a fish market. But next door was a Ghanaian restaurant and decided to get some takeout.
I got Egusi with Fish. Heated it up the next day. It was so good.
I thought it was eggs. LOL. Turns out it's a seed they mashed up. It sort of reminded me of Ackee (Jamaican)
Genevieve Flo and Philjean were so friendly. We chatted while waiting for the freshly made food.
If we lived in MD, we would be going to try everything on the menu ?

Omg!!! Please dont be fooled by the stars!!! They must be friends and fam. I wish i took a pic. The fufu taste like box mashed potatoes stuff you get from the store. The pepper stew taste like straight tomato paste and it was 26$!!!! Im not used to African food but i wanted to try. I knew right away i ordered from the wrong spot when there was a paper banner for the title and walking in to see the run down shop with the depressed staff. They must not get much clientele cuz when i came in my orders was already priced and ready for my card to swipe as if they was waiting for just me cuz i called. I asked for a meat pie which was $6. The cashier who spoke like she was on her last breath or just didn’t wanna be at work barely knew how to used the cp and took like 10 mins tryna add it on until i said its okay just gimme the stew.
I realized i was scammed today when i went to ranham african cuisine in beltsville and got jellof and meat(13$) okra soup with goat and fufu(13$) and puff puff(2.5) and fish pie(2.5) for 32$. And the place had a lot of ppl in it. Lol atmosphere says a lot honestly.

Delicious food and very caring staff. They were happy to talk with me about the different dishes they serve, gave me tips on how best to eat it (gotta get that technique!), and my 2 friends and I had a blast dancing to the music in the shop while we waited for food. I had the peanut butter soup with goat and fufu and it was everything I hoped it would be and more. Just the right amount of spicy and comforting.
We were visiting from Michigan and so glad we found Vieve's!
