I paid almost $28 for this.. it wasn’t uber eats .. I drive down there to get charged $28 for this. I don’t even want to talk about the taste of the food. Very little effort! Next time I have $28 to waste, I will just throw it in the bin atleast it saves me the stress.

I walked in today, excited to try the food. My partner is in the hospital and there aren’t many good food options. I don’t know what was going on there, but the one weird rude woman who was there, was terrible. She looked at me like I was bothering her for walking in. Then when I asked if they were open she asked me what I wanted without even giving me a menu. When she did, I had questions as I had no idea what most of the menu was and didn’t want to blindly order, she looked at me like I was an idiot. I walked out and ordered next door. What a weird experience. Was she in drugs? Was she special needs? Does she just not care? What a weird weird weird place.

Have visited a couple times, and every time the cashier tries to persuade you into buying things you did not ask for. Ordered a dozen or more meat pies and unknown to me, three were actually burnt. It just goes to show how deceitful and desperate the one female cashier is to make a sale. Very poor customer service. The jollof I had was overly spicy and quite small for the price to the point where you couldn’t taste the other seasonings in the food. This establishment is not worth your time or money.

Considering my past negative experiences with ordering from restaurants in New Jersey, I was hesitant. However, the lady I spoke to at Iyalaje's Restaurant assured me that I wouldn't regret it. For Christmas, I decided to give it a try and ordered some food. To my delight, the food was absolutely exceptional. I was thoroughly impressed. The lady followed up with me to ensure I enjoyed the food, and I expressed my satisfaction. This positive experience led me to order again for my baby's naming ceremony. It was during this occasion that I had the pleasure of speaking with the owner, Iyalaje herself. She was incredibly sweet and pleasant to deal with. We negotiated the price, and once again, she delivered nothing but the best. Every dish I ordered, from Eforiro to Moimoi, Ayamase to Asaro, along with goat meat, fish, and pastries, was impeccable. My guests loved it. In fact, my sister was so impressed that she ended up ordering food for Eid Al Fitr as well. I consider myself a food critic, but Iyalaje's food surpassed all expectations. You won't be disappointed.

Food excellent, service top notchBest african restaurant in New
First off let me start but saying May God continue to BLESS this establishment! I’m Kenyan but I love some good Nigerian food. A lot of my coworkers were giving great reviews about “one proper Nigerian spot down the road”. I came here after work ordered Jollof, chicken, fish and my favorite Asun. I wish I took pictures for this review but when I tell you not one thing missed the mark. CONSISTENCY ACROSS THE BOARD. I will definitely be coming back perhaps tomorrow even.

Save yourself the stress, do not let the name catch you. I ordered white rice with ayamashe, it was the most stale rice and food ever. The white rice was so gummy and sticky meaning its been sitting in the kitchen for days !!! i had to dump it . Very ridiculousCheck out NAIJA HOUSE RESTAURANT rather, and thank me later .
