West African Restaurants in Brooklyn, NY

“PERFECT meal. Everything was so delicious, Im only sad I couldnt try it all!!!! The octopus was cooked perfectly the moi moi loved, and the iyan ati egusi BLEW ME AWAY. Also the puff puff for dessert was the totally perfect taste and texture. I can not say enough good things about this. Also its BYOB but there is a wine store next door.“

“Incredible vibe. Unique vinyl selection, amazing food, and a host who has mastered the art of the evening. It feels like dining at the house of someone with impeccable taste in both spice and sound. The speakers are the absolute star of the room—crisp, warm, and perfectly tuned to the space. 10/10, would move in if I could.“

“Amazing food. Amazing service. 10/10“

“I had a wonderful time the food was delicious 😋“

“I ordered the Bissap and Ginger drinks. Personally I am not a fan of the ginger- it’s a little spicy which I’m pretty sensitive too. I gifted those to my mom who liked them! I really enjoy the Bissap. It is flavor packed and delicious!“

“A truly outstanding dining experience. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making it easy to relax and enjoy the moment. The food was prepared with great attention to detail, and the quality was consistent throughout. Service was friendly, attentive, and well paced. Every part of the visit felt thoughtfully managed, and it’s clear that high standards are maintained here.“

“I really like their steak suya bowl, it's spicy and has a healthy serving of veggies and we'll flavored meat. Definitely recommend“

“What a great meal! The flavor is amazing!“

“So I randomly stumbled into this restaurant in desperate need of food and while I was in the restaurant I found out my birth family sitting in the restaurant. The shock of it all maybe me choke on my food and I started hyperventilating. The restaurant staff were the kindest people and performed CPR and resisted me back. After that, they gave me food and water to recover from the shock and help ease the introduction with my family. 10/10 experience and the staff will be invited to the family reunion next month.“

“Delicious. Food is packed with flavor- like every bite is a party. The goat and fish were cooked perfectly- tender and full of spice and savory. Jollof rice had an aromatic smokiness to it which I loved.
Everyone was welcoming and friendly.
The fuufu was the best pairing for the food. Tried the amala too (I think base may have been cassava and it's more dense) and whole wheat fuufu too but neither topped the original.“

“It's on same block, few yards away from Masjid Taqwa. Food and price are great for budget, there is always people frequenting so you know food quality is good and its always moving. Plenty of seating, no frills, people continue to come here for so many years“

“I would post a picture but I ate my entire platter (2 people could've shared that but I ate all of it). Everything was delicious- it looks like they had not so great reviews a few months ago but maybe they fixed the issue because my meal and fresh juice was fantastic, especially for the price.“

“Went with my wife after church service, instead of take out, we dined in. The food is great, service is impeccable. While we were there, they attended to almost 20 orders. Everyone was just in and out with their orders. Very respectable. The following Sunday, we had to do a take out. The Iyan and egusi soup was so good that when I could barely finish the food, they thought I was done with the food, and they came to clean up... I was like nope, I'm just resting I will finish it 😀😀. Good food“

“This place is cash only!
I was in the neighborhood, so I looked up places to get Nigerian food and then I found this spot.
I was really excited to try my first jollof rice.
Talking to the owners,
I explain that I would only like to do vegetables and jollof rice, no meat.
They were very understanding and gave exactly what I asked for. Because there was no meat the price was different.

The food was delicious, thank you for a wonderful meal.
When I am done abstaining from meat, I will come back for their fufu and okra soup with goat. I look forward to trying that for the first time as well.“

“Good and tasty food. Neat environment. Pleasant owners and staff.“
