First time here and I am glad I chose this one out of curiosity because it was definitely delicious! I was feeling indecisive and the man at the counter was a great guy and helped me choose and explained what things were and I had tons of questions! I’ll definitely be back!

My spouse got food from here couple days ago nd it was a disaster! The only thing I could say was edible to some extent was the meat pie and the Amala, and that was after I had to personally season the stew for the Amala, there was 0 spice nd flavor to it, the meat tasted ok tho. The ofada he got had stones in them! I mean with every bites! That is ridiculous considering the amount of money he spent getting all these to bring them back 3hrs, almost 4hrs away! And he got like double of everything considering there was he nd I.

The sauce for the ofada had no spice like ofada sauce should and no taste! The fish roll was tasteless, had great smell tho but no flavor. I did not even bother trying the egg rolls cause it was probably a disaster too with just boiled eggs.

I have been a customer at this restaurant for a long time, I even introduced my husband to the store nd I’ve always tried understanding when food did not tastes good but this was too bad!

How could someone sell that to customers paying money, I’ll say the ofada was the last straw for me! If you gonna sell ofada atleast pick them right or don’t sell them. Chewing on that much stone is ridiculous nd dissatisfying.

I wish I could get a refund for all we got cause they were not edible nd we ended up trashing most of them.

UPDATES: I do know what ofada rice should be and smell like! I never complained about the smell cause I am very familiar with how ofada rice should smell and I love the smell, I’m a Yoruba girl! But the stones? I know so well it can never be fully picked but it shouldn’t have that much stones or dirt in them With every bites! I ate ofada growing up nd you cannot tell me it’s supposed to be like that or maybe we were just more intentional about picking them right cause I didn’t chew on stones with every bites and have tasteless sauce to it! Maybe if the sauce was any better I would have gratefully ate it with white rice but it wasn’t.

I’ve been to different restaurants nd I try not to complain cause I understand how hard it can be selling food nd there are bad days as well but this wasn’t the first bad food experience we’ve had with African deli also considering we drive so far (3-4hrs) just to patronize you guys and I’ve never left any reviews cause something at-least tasted ok or edible nd was fixable. We’ve been a customer for over 3yrs! If the ofada didn’t have that much stones, I’ll have probably never left any reviews and just fixed the tastes myself but it was unfixable.

Such great customer service you got telling a paying customer to stay away from food they love just cause of your inadequacy nd unaccountability. Do better nd I’ll definitely be going somewhere else!

I ordered Afang soup (with beef) and fufu and enjoyed it very much. The people were very kind and the food was good. It was spicy, but only in a mild way. I will definitely return.
