Mama G African Restaurant offers well-seasoned dishes like ogbono and ayamase. Customers praised the tasty jollof rice and meat pie. The restaurant has a spacious setting with home music. The food is often praised for its authentic flavor, tender meats, and good spice level. One customer mentioned that the meat is well cleaned and has no smell, adding to the enjoyment. However, some reviewers noted inconsistent pricing, with one customer paying over $20 for a plate and feeling the quality did not match the cost. Others shared mixed experiences with dishes like jollof rice, mentioning it can sometimes be oily, reheated, or taste old, especially depending on the day or time of visit. Despite this, many appreciate the restaurant for its Nigerian touch and flavorful meals. The restaurant is a good place to visit for a delicious meal with Nigerian culture, especially if craving jollof rice or native dishes.
