Just ordered right now in person and I must say that the taste was great and quantity was reasonable. 10/10 I love it 😋

Absolutely over priced for dry overcooked chicken legs. I like to support ethnic businesses but, wont go back. The order counter was a mess and only had 1 menu item. Why even be open at that point? The lady was really sweet though.

I go here all the time for Abula and have never been disappointed. I’ve never had a bad meal here, the owner is also super sweet. I’ve had Abula, pounded yam, and Jollof rice and they are all so yummy.

To top it all, I’m under the weather and just ordered pepper soup for the 1st time through DoorDash and it is so yummy. It was so good, I called the store to compliment the chef. I will say that if you can’t handle spice to ask for less spice, but the spice really helps. Love this place and I’m loyal forever.

I can’t even tell you how the food tastes. Just to order food is a problem. They don’t have yam that we all see in the pictures and they don’t have goat meat pepper soup. I can only imagine what else the menu claims they have but they actually don’t. Cus it’s giving all they have is stew and goat meat which is fine just say that so i don’t waste my time. Plus $20 for a small baby plate of suya? Please be for real! There’s a reason why that place looks deserted. The lady that answered the phone to take my order, after ordering i asked her how much is my total and she told me when i get there she will tell me how much it is because she’s doing something? I’ve never in my grown life heard an establishment that wants to chop my money EVER say nothing that wild. I asked so how will i know how much to bring? Then it made sense to her..cus lol duh???If she isn’t the owner fire her expeditiously If that doesn’t tell u not to eat there. Idk

Honestly I came from Illinois for a business trips to Houston TX.just of recent. I was badly hungry and looking for what to eat i drove round the city of Houston looking for delicious food, suddenly I saw a sing post on top of a business building written Amala Joint. I stop over to check the restaurant out guys guess what,their food was so delicious and the staff was so amazing. They make me feel at home. I recommend this place for everyone please go there and get something and eat.

The owner she was very nice. I got the ogusi soup, I could not really enjoy it because it was too hot and spicy. My wait time was about 15 minutes. If I'm back in the area I would go back and try a different dish.
