My husband and I agree that this is some of the most delicious food we’ve ever eaten in our lives. Everything is fresh and delicious, great variety

Clearly marked vegan options (of which there's plenty). Cafe is no frills but the food more than makes up for this. We were first to arrive when it opened but it quickly filled up. We were able to try dishes before we chose which was great. We both went for the vegan platters, the peanut stew and plantain are particularly delicious.

I got the fufu and chicken kebab. The chicken kebab was okay compared to the fufu because the fufu was disgusting ?. The first red flag was that I saw one of the employees PUT HER BARE FINGERS (NO GLOVES) In the fufu to get something out of it. The fufu, the pounded yam part smooth like it’s supposed to be, actually it had so many humps and clumps in it. And the egusi wasn’t even egusi it was like a gravy of something. The only good this was the hibiscus slush and when I tasted a sample it literally had black stuff on side of the cup. And it’s a buffet, the food wasn’t really fresh at all.

Absolutely delicious!!! I mean when I say it's a 10 out of 10, highly recommend!!! I got a lil of everything. It was so good. I promise you will not be disappointed. I'm happy I found this place because I will most definitely be there every other week (if not every week).
And the staff is friendly, the place was nice and clean and that is so important as well. And the price isn't bad for the amount and selection you can get.

I order beef fatayas and egusi soup. The eggs I soup was great and we all love it but the beef in the fatayas was bad. You can tell from the taste, I allow multiple people to tasted it, and everyone could taste of spoil meat. I have had fatayas many time from this business and quickly realized they use bad meat on this batch. I support your restaurant despite the overpriced food, so yes I was 100% disappointed. My children ate this mess including other family. If it’s bad just get rid of it, it’s not worth getting anyone sick nor the Reputation of your business. The sauce couldn’t even cover this foul taste of the spoil taste… Unfortunately I had to come back and do an edit on my comment here. One of my family members claimed that’s it was my tastebuds until they got into the middle of this. Smh I can’t believe this is what we was consuming the whole time, which is why it tasted weird. It’s raw spoil meat with rubber in it.

I’ve been there a few times my last time was not so pleasant because the amount of food I pay for was not the same as the credit that they owed me. You could tell they were being stingy. Therefore they are not honest or fair.
Plenty vegan food on the menu, tasty peanut butter stew, but food wasn't hot and was served up in take away tray. Didn't enjoy the setting, run down

Delicious comfort food, generous portions, plenty of vegan options. Everything clearly labelled and reasonably priced.
First time visit. The attended offered me a sample of each stew that pairs with the Fufu. I ordered the beef and okra stew and four plantains with an herbal Honey Ginger drink.
