I ordered through ubereats because I live about 30ish minutes away and always wanted to try african food. The dish I’ve been dying to try was their egusi/pounded yam (fufu.)

I ordered through Uber eats for pickup. I got jollof rice with chicken, fried rice, plantain, egusi soup w/fish, and efo soup with chicken.

The restaurant is clean and the customer service was good. I'll definitely return.
