“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.“

“Great food. Excellent service. Thoroughly enjoyed my lunch here“

“Afrikiko is an absolute gem for authentic African cuisine. The food is incredibly flavorful, fresh, and prepared with real attention to quality and tradition. Every dish we tried was rich in taste and beautifully presented.

The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff are friendly, attentive, and make you feel right at home from the moment you walk in. You can tell they truly care about the customer experience.

If you’re looking for genuine African food with great service and a vibrant environment, Afrikiko is definitely a place worth visiting. Highly recommended!“

“Great suya“

“An excellent place. Great food and coffee.“

“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.“

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

“We were in the area as I was dropping bae off at the airport and we were looking for something to eat before his flight. We stumbled upon this place and boy am I glad we did because the food was absolutely divine!

I had the garnished tilapia with jollof rice and vegetables. Not sure what vegetables I was eating perhaps spinach but they were cooked to perfection. Bae had the garnished goat meat which was so tender and I appreciate the bite sized cuts instead of the chunky portions. I low key wished I had gotten the goat.
We ended up getting a side of jollof rice because the goat meat plate did not come with any sides. I will definitely be back if I am on that side of town again.

The four stars are because I wish they adjusted the spice levels. I like my food spicy and Bae who is Yoruba’s spice level is not for this world! so the food wasn’t as spicy to both of us as we would’ve liked.

Service was a little bit slow, but I think it’s because they do make the food fresh. Nice clean restaurant great customer service and cannot wait to be back next time I’m in humble“

“I will always cheer Wazobia on for a lot of things, especially when it comes to customer service, cleanliness and product availability. There is a BUT….. of recent, I am not sure what’s been happening with the cashiers. Some of them look so disgruntled or upset. No greeting, no smile, no engagement with their customers until they get to the required membership question. I understand that standing on your feet all day attending to people can be a lot but I drive past other African stores to Wazobia for the customer service experience. Pls bring that back!“

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

“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.“

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

“Muy buen lugar para pasar un rato agradable“

“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!“

“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“

“Nice foods beautiful and friendly environment“

“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 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“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“I think wingstop got new owners or something because their service got slower and the wings don’t taste like they used to, so I decided to try Wingbay. The wings are better than wingstop and the cheese fries were loaded with cheese. This will be my new wing place.“

“Best Suya in Houston!!!!.“

“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.“
