I ordered a whole fried fish with plantains from door dash.. Does anyone see anything missing from this photo? The plantains! I didn’t pay $19 just for you people to not give me what I requested. Yall raised the prices & made the portions smaller. Now you people aren’t serving the entire order per the customer’s request? This is ludicrous! I’m never ordering from here again! I don’t work 8 hours a day just for a silly restaurant to take from me like this.

So so good. So warm and comforting, and the fluffiest fufu ever. That yellow pepper sauce ain't no lie either 🥵

The lady taking orders had an horrible attitude after I asked about the small plates. Won’t be going there again.

Food was amazing fresh hot and authenticly delicous. Traveled 30 miles just to eat here and it did not disappoint. A little warm inside but quickly cooled down where we sat at, complain worth every penny!! 👌

Ignore the bad reviews. The owners of this restaurant are wonderful people and the food is delicious. Mariama hooked me up with a free platter once when she could tell I was down bad. She always remembered my face and asked how my family was doing, who I've brought here many times along with tons of friends. After not having eaten here for 2 years after moving, I returned for my mother's funeral. Mariama was on a Hajj at the time but her daughter remembered me and was very sympathetic. Their pepper sauce is gas too.

Lately the meat portions have shrunk while the rice and onions keep piling up. Please be generous with the meat and ease up on the fillers; like the rice and onions. And can we get rice & beans instead of yellow rice every time? Skimping might save costs, but it disappoints customers, especially those paying extra for delivery, fees, and tips.

I’ve eaten here since 2014, and oftentimes drive up from Baltimore to eat the fish and yellow rice. Unfortunately, the quality has declined drastically since the relocation. The young gentleman cooking was nice, but my rice lacked flavor and salt, same with the fish. I saw reviews about the mushy rice, and it’s true, but I like it that way. Please season the food again. Also, I stopped getting the curry goat because over the years the portions have declined and it’s more bones than meat. I am aware of inflation, but I may not make the trip any longer.
