African Restaurants in Houston, TX

“My boyfriend and I ordered takeout from here a few days ago and it was some of the best food we’ve had. We typically eat from Nigerian restaurants , so this was our first time trying Ghanaian cooking. We ordered Egusi soup and meat pies , the service was quick and kind. We will definitely be back to try more of their menu items. Highly recommend“

“I had an opportunity to go Kofochi Nigerian Restaurant all the way from ATL. Let me start by saying thar customer services and food were top notch. The decor was right on point and not to mention cleanliness of the place. I came with few of my friends, and we had Amala with abula, jollof rice and I had a fish. All the food was perfect. I will go back there when I make my way to Houston again.“

We ordered 3 different bowls and each one blew us away with depth of flavor, intense yummyness created with authenticity and uniqueness unlike anything else in this city!

“I've probably ordered about 4 times and will continue to do so, it's amazing and they also seal your food well for your protection if you order from them through Doordash. The best african restaurant in houston, the food is always so fresh 🩷“

“Daughter (12 yo) chose Aria Suya kitchen. Great experience with real African food. Tasty, fresh food. Nice atmosphere.“

“1st time here love the food first time fufu man I love it the help was Amazing“

“Best Suya ever in Houston. I love the home made Zobo drink, tigernut drink, ginger- Pineapple juice and even the jollof rice, it was delicious. Thanksgiving package of Turkey and juices was great. The environment is clean, and Customer service is 100% . I will be visiting again.“

“The customer service was exceptional. I really enjoyed the fact that the person preparing the food went above and beyond to make sure I was happy before I left. She even gave me new food to try and a bottle of water before I left because it was my first time eating fufu and egusi. I will be back because at was treated kindly.“

“I placed my order on Monday but got a Friday delivery date. I am unavailable Fridays hence I called and they gave me an accommodation, offering for me to pickup Thursday. I went and EVERYTHING was ready. A true professional service (huge respects to the brother in charge of handling catering orders….he was very professional and calm). Tho in fairness, ALL the staffs were very good. I appreciate the service and including the packaging. You guys clearly know your job and you do it well. Huge respects, love and appreciation to you guys, I am your happy customer

I normally buy in bulk here and always get great service and products. Today, I went and Mr. I
Adetomiwa attended to me and he is the best person you’ll ever meet. His personality, service, maturity…..perfection all round. I always enjoy interacting with the staffs but this young man, so special. I told him that I will do this review because of him and will mention his name; he earned it! I am most grateful for all you guys there and the service, everything! GodBlessYou!!“

“Omg went here and got me some ogbono stew with fufu....I didn't catch the cooks name, but it won't be the last time I see him so I'll update it when I get his name....he was so nice and understanding he helped me decide for sure what I wanted...and when I got home I tell you...omg it hit the spot, exactly what I wanted and was so good!! Thanks so much for that!! I will be visiting again soon!“

“I took my father-in-law to the restaurant to try their Fisherman Soup for sentimental reasons and the soup didn't disappoint. My son had their vegetable soup and both were top level. I tasted some of my son's soup and I can tell you it was the best vegetable soup I've had. We tried their Nkowbi and it didn't disappoint. Everything tasted like your grandma's village cooking. If you go, call then ahead of time because they prepare everything from scratch.“

“This restaurant is great 10/10 definitely recommend! Best Suya and Jollof Rice.“

“Tried them for the first time today & was pleased. Service was friendly & dish of chicken, rice & veg's were tasty. Great 'spicy' spice!!“

“I stopped by this cozy African restaurant known for its succulent and finger-licking fish, soya, and alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages to spend quality time with my wife - Madame Chief, and friends.

We had a swell time and shall stop by on our next visit to Houston, TX.

You, too, are invited to discover the milieu and have a fun time that you shall forever remember.“

“I enjoyed my meal, baked tilapia with stew, jollof rice, spinach, hen, coke & water, very delicious“

“I tried the ready made rice and spicy stew and it was amazing! I also met the owner in the store and he was very hospitable. The store was busy and he went out of his way to speak with the customers. Great location also. It was easy to get in and out. Thank you for the service!“

“This feels like grandmas home the lady was super nice and so was the guy as well any questions I had were answered and we dined in and we got to wash our hands in bowl which served to me as a really authentic experience all in all my food was delicious and flavorful.“

“So i tried this place today. I am a sucker for a good customer service no matter who walk through your door(money is money). When I walked in the hostess was kinda cold so my first thought was another Nigeria place with attitude but I was determined to try it anyways, when the cook came out(I think she might be the owner) her attitude and presence was warm and friendly so needless to say I will be going back. As for the food.....Taste= 4/5 Portion= 5/5 cleanliness= 5/5 Customer service = 3/5“

“I was in Houston for a wedding with my husband a couple of weeks ago and was so excited to find a Nigerian restaurant close to our hotel—Nativeport did not disappoint! From our very first order, the experience was nothing short of amazing, and it stayed that way for the four days we kept going back.

The owner was professional, dedicated, and most importantly, can seriously cook! I fell in love with food all over again. Everything we tried was authentic and delicious. I even ordered extra food to take back home to California, and she kindly froze everything to make sure it would travel well on my flight.

P.S. My last meal before flying out? Fried rice, plantain, and peppered goat meat—perfection!“

“Thanks for the warm welcome“

“Great taste of Real African food“

“I believe this is the place to be if you want to get the real african home taste. My first time experience was above expectation. I don't normally like egusi outside, but this exceeded by expectation

Parking: Very accessible and huge parking“

“5 stars because this is the best food I’ve ever had. I frequently get the egusi soup with catfish and poundo. I could eat it every day! The only thing I don’t like is the unnecessary teasing and small talk that some of the male cashiers try to have with me mostly because I’m introverted so i really appreciate when the younger female cashier is there. Her service is quick, friendly and efficient.“

“It was a very great experience at Olachi's Place,The enviroment was well in order,The service was prompt with smiles from the attendants,The food was so delicious.I ate okro-ugba,it was just home made.As a customer i must say i was satisfied and would always recommend Olachi's Place to anyone craving for home made food.“

“From the moment we walked in the front door, even though it was busy, the gentleman who greeted us provided superb customer service. He made sure we were seated exactly where we wanted, brought water to the table promptly, and still managed to attend to other guests efficiently ….that alone was impressive. We actually drove an hour and 30 minutes to get there. While we were on the road, I kept saying, “I’m never driving this far again!” ..but I really wanted to try the food. And let me tell you, it was well worth the drive. When the food arrived, it was beautifully presented and piping hot. Even the powdered yam was wrapped neatly in what I believe was a palm leaf ….a nice touch. I ordered the seafood okra and egusi with assorted meat, and every bite was undeniably delicious. As someone who has eaten a lot of Nigerian food …especially for an American girl…I can confidently say this is by far one of the best experiences I’ve had. I’ll definitely be making that drive again before my summer vacation is over!“

“I love Love Love the food here and it's the only place I get catering for all occasions 🤗“

“8/13/24
I'm vegan and the Lady chef made feel comfortable and prepared my meal and it was quite delicious.
I had the spinach mixture with no fish, a lot of plantains, the tomato stew was to die for totally tastefully.
I will be back.“

“Food is super delicious and Freshly made never a dull moment were I don't enjoy the food. Espically Jollof Rice, best spot ever“

“Nice portion sizes. Great customer service. Flavorful cuisine.“

“Royal Point has mastered the art of preparing grilled fish, suya, fried rice, and grilled chicken to five-star perfection. With every visit, I'm treated to a culinary experience that exceeds my expectations and keeps me coming back for more.“

“I’m just in town Visiting from NJ and decided to try this place . I ordered the Designer Stew ( Ayamase) and white rice. It was absolutely amazing !! I also ordered the Whole tilapia with Jollof rice incase I didn’t like the first meal and both were very good.“

“Went there with some friends to grab a few drinks and I enjoyed the experience. This place has been temporarily closed due to the fact that they were selling alcoholic beverages without a permit. This place ended up Making the nightly news twice concerning their permits. if this place reopens I will visit but the city shut them down for 1year. The owner(s) should reopen and do it right.“

“Food was Absolutely Delicious, fresh and Hot ! Service was Friendly. Meat was juicy and Tender!!“

“I have ordered here a few times and food has always been good. Timing might not always be right (sometimes, it is very off) but the people have always been pleasant. However, I can understand how they can make customers upset because even when running late on orders, they address customers like they are nonchalantly telling their family/friends that dinner will be a little late. The pace of the cutomer service lady is also really slow! These can be upsetting to a paying customer who is on a time crunch.

I am not keen on their barbecue chicken nor their French fries but everything else I have tried so far, I like. We usually get the spring rolls, samosa, puff puff, mosa, and whole grilled fish. I really like their asun but think it is over-priced, so I pretty much leave that alone.

A dining lounge has been added to the business and looks like it would be a good place to bring family/friends, and even hold business meetings but I haven't used it, so I cannot review that part of their business. However, I do hope they make whatever they decide to show on the TV screens family friendly, especially the music as we were once very uncomfortable with the music videos playing in their pickup area as they were not children friendly at all!“

“United sister's restaurant is a very nice restaurant, a wonderful place to be.. they have good food, good customers service. their quality of food is out of this world and a trial will convince you... if you need tasteful food go to United sisters!!!❤❤“

“Thanks for the warm welcome“

“My African people please great me with a smile when I walk in. I was visiting from Minnesota but since we don't have many african restaurants. I wanted to try some egusi in a place with more of an African community. Well I must say come to Minnesota and try Value Foods Africa Deli in
Brooklyn Center - I'm sorry to say it is so much better.
I would come back maybe I will try something else.
And please work on the menu - it is confusing - does the egusi come by itself or with rice (is it part of the meal or not?)
The fish please get rid of that sauce on top of it - just give me a fried or grilled on suya seasoning or something.
Lots of parking and clean bathroom“
