I order Kemi's on GrubHub. I love the fresh fish platter and jollof rice. I love the poundo yam. The lady on the phone if I call with questions she is very nice.

This place always has undercooked meats. The cow skin was tough and inedible. No way they should have allowed that to come out of their kitchen! Somebody could really get SICK! These people are also VERY RUDE and don’t even care about the customer concerns.. why are they still in business?

Ordered the fufu platter with cow skin and tripe. I guess people don’t order these meats often because they do not know how to properly cook them. They were both very undercooked I could barely even cut through with a knife. This undercooked meat was in my soup so I didn’t eat the soup either of fear of cross contamination. Please do not order fufu platters from them. They didn’t even try this is terrible.

I order food from here all the time and it’s the BEST African food I’ve had! Ronke was very nice and polite and I will be back not only for the food but for the customer service she showed me. Thank you Ronke!

So I'm going to be very honest! I hope the restaurant makes the right changes with their seasonings and assist the chef with how Nigerian sauces are cooked.1. I live 25 -30 mins away from the restaurant. No form of delivery service was available to my area, so I was forced to drive there. I ordered 3 types of meals; Fufu and egusi platter with goat meat, Whole Tilapia & Fried Plantains, Ogbono sauce & Goat meat.2. The Egusi was terrible! (ZERO STARS) It only took one bite, and i almost stood up, but i was famished. The more i ate, the more it was obvious how terrible it was. It tasted bitter & sour. It did not seem to have any form of crayfish & seasonings typical with egusi. It tasted like an excess amount of canned tomato sauce(usually sour in taste), dry pepper, egusi, salt & vegetable oil were the only present ingredients in it. It was awful! The stew from the goat meat was not any better. It also tasted like they only used canned tomato sauce, salt, oil, and some weird spice. It was sour and very lacking in flavor. The meat did not taste like goatmeat and was very overcooked. The sauce entirely lacked all things Nigerian about it. It tasted like an experiment without a West African cooking background! I will revamp what i just could not continue to eat when I get home!! Basically, the Egusi sauce needs just a little blend fresh tomatoes with lots of bell peppers and other peppers of choice and onions, dry whole& ground crayfish, shredded dry/smoked fish, shredded Norwegian stock fish, fermented locust beans, fresh palmoil, good bouillon cubes, beef stock and dawa-dawa to start with.3. The Ogono smells legit, but I have not tasted it or the extra goatmeat i bought in it. I will taste it tomorrow and give an update.4. The tilapia itself was very nice and well baked or grilled. The sauce on it, however, tasted sour but with a little more flavor than the previous sauces. The plantains were mostly fried alright but could use less heat and more cooking, so it cooks all the way through in the oil. (2 STARS)5. Both the customer service I received over the phone and in person were impeccable!! The lady who attended to me was attentive, kind, professional, and respectful, and service was fast! (5 STARS)6. The area the restaurant is located in is very nice, and the atmosphere in the restaurant was good. (4 STARS)7. Would I go back there? Not for the stew or Egusi. But for the excellent customer service I received, I'm willing to give other dishes a try.

It is absolutely one of the best African restaurants that I have gone to in quite some time. The food was fresh, and the service was great. I highly recommend them!

We order all kinds of delicacies from Kemi's kitchen for any event. Kemi's moi-moi is everything. I recommend Kemi's Kitchen for all kinds of African foods.

I tried this restaurant because I recently tried African cuisine elsewhere and wanted to try it again. The food was great and you get a lot for the price. I ordered fufu and egusi soup with fish and beef and I added okro soup and jollof rice on the side. The fish was not my favorite texture but the flavors were good. Everything tasted amazing. I will definitely be going back!

I ordered okra for my pregnant sister, when it arrived there was hair in the food. I immediately called and spoke to the owner a woman. I calmly explained to her the issue and she proceeded to hang up on me and block me. When I called from a different number she had someone answer to tell me... its a DoorDash problem and there is nothing they could do for me. They put my pregnant sisters life in danger and didn't care at all. PLEASE PLEASE I beg you... be careful eating here. It's not safe. I am so disappointed
