I finished the food so fast no picture to take ? it’s good and the guy selling the food was nice. We came from out of town so it was convenient to get food on the way. His egusi and jollof was good. The meat was tender

I love this food truck! The egusi soup with chicken and fufu is good, super flavorful. I’m so glad there’s a Nigerian food truck in midtown. Plus the service was really quick and the guy was so nice! I will definitely be ordering from there again!

Drove up from DC for a weekend in NYC and made this our first stop even before checking into the hotel. We got a ton of stuff. SO WORTH IT!!! Best Nigerian food I’ve ever had. The Ewa Agoyin IS AMAZING!! Rich and smokey. I could have stoped there!! The Jollof rice was equally good. Crocker fish was delicious. Excellent Honey Beans. The guy who served us was a really nice guy. You have to go!!

I didn't wait long for my food after ordering. My only complaint is that this place is expensive. Paid $25 for my meal. I'll be honest, I haven't had a lot of jollof rice. I thought this one was good. There wasn't any meat or veggies mixed in. It was welled seasoned and had some spiciness to it. The stew beef was good but I wish I had more. I will say I had big pieces though. The fatty part was delicious while the other parts were dry. I wish there was more stew in it. The plantains were dry too but good. All in all, I'll probably be back here at some point. It was good even if it was expensive.

Went to Dallas Vegan Fest and this African vendor was the worst food I've ever tasted! Overpriced nasty and nothing vegan about this $hit.

The jollof rice was good. I loved the sauciness of itThe chicken however that came with it was dry and the bones were troublesome.I would only order jollof rice if I come back

I tried DF Nigerian Food Truck at Vegandale Festival and I was glad they came! They offered something unique that was different from the other vendors / food trucks. I liked that none of the dishes was spicy.We got the box full of everything they had on offer that day: Jollof Rice, Fufu, Egusi, Efo Riro (spinach stew), Plantain, Puff Puff. The jollof rice was flavourful. The Egusi and Efo Riro were nice and soft. The fufu and plantain were nice carb additions to fill you up. The Puff Puff were just fried dough balls. Good and filling meal overall.

I just stopped by yesterday to get jolop rice and chicken. It was the worst food I've ever tasted. The rice tasted like they scraped the bottom of the pot and it was so burned tasting it was a shame that they would sell anyone that mess. The plantain was cooked burned black. I'm Jamaican and I know what a plantain is supposed to look like. My problem is I ordered a large meal and I had to throw all of that out! No one has money to waste like that! Never going back again. Just lost a customer! They should really be ashamed of themselves to sell something like that!?????

I really wanted to like it. But the rice which I expected to be spicy that's what the Jollof rice I've had tasted like. But to my disappointment it was not only NOT spicy but all tasted burnt. I also got sweet plantains which was okay but tasted old. I had callaloo which is spinach. It was okay. I don't understand how they market it on a menu as all vegan and hardly has anything vegan. It's a truck with mainly meat dishes. I guess that's a way for them to pull the non meat eating people. It was not a good eating experience for me. Unfortunately I can not recommend this franchised company.

Today was my first time I ate Nigerian food, well it’s super good! A little spicy for me but it’s something you must try! Thank you!

Great food, appalling service. They just can’t figure it out and there’s constant confusion over simple things.(Reply to question from owner:)I waited 48 minutes for my food, a TooGoodToGo order. There was no update on the time, no apology and no explanation whatsoever. I could have made fufu at home in less time than that.
