Food is good, but customer service is poor. Many times things on the menu not available to order.

Please do not go here they have very terrible customer service and they yell at their customers. They also try to charge higher than what they display online.

This is a very honest review. This lady charged me at the rate of $20 each plus tax it was $43.30 for two plantain and fish that was supposed to be $17 each. I did approach her and question her about the different price and she got defensive and couldn’t provide a reason why the price was higher. She also refused to issue me a personal receipt for my purchase but I got a screenshot from my bank app and I’d be attaching it below. I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone. Kindly go somewhere else to get good food. I think they should learn to be sincere and maybe they’d be able to keep their customers rather than finessing their customers and trying to play on customers intelligence. I also attached the price of the items if I was to order online.
They never miss, anything the have to offer will always taste good

This place is crap and the owner really needs to improve the restaurant. The goat meats were way over grilled and even hard to chew. Server wasn't very enthusiastic, like he didn't want to be there. The Ladies toilet was way dirty that you will prefer to pee on yourself than use it. Bill holder is way damaged, like the owner cannot afford to buy new ones. This place needs to shut down as it doesn't meet the Foods and location hygienic standards. Will never recommend this restaurant to anyone.

I took my mother for her 70th birthday - Those are my findings:
- The restroom is very dirty - no even soap was available - the door were literally black,,,this is how dirty it was
- The goat was not even boiled in hot water and very Oily ...
- The jolof rice was overcooked - the tomato sauce was just concentrating tomatoes and Oil - no flavor
- Double shot of Jack Daniels Whisky + redbull - USD 29
- Plantain bananas not cooked properly
They have a lot to learn about cooking African Food / Hygiene is an issue / bottle of champaign is being sold for USD 150,,,,,
An African restaurant in Houston should be A rating - they do not have issues with water / power and finding ingredients....as you find anything you need -
Do not waste your time and money in that place - very disappointing !!

This is a terrible place. They lie about their soup. They serve egusi soup with hard chicken and call it assorted meat. The egusi soup has so much palm oil it can fill half or 3/4 of a cup. The waiter guy will tell you they have something then bring you something else and be begging you to understand that they will do better next do, whose coming next time? The lady at the reception has an attitude. The waiter man will give you a lower price then time to pay the lady will give another price that is higher with same bad attitude. You will be eating at the table and they be setting up your own table for another customer that they are expecting a group of people when you have not even finished eating. It’s just a bad experience. Will never come back. Try other African restaurants if you looking for authentic African food with good service.A zero star fits this place

We came here to celebrate my sister in law’s birthday. Customer service was terrible from start to finish. One person received spoiled fish and another got their food 20 minutes after everyone was already served. I will never return and would definitely not recommend this place.

Marie’s food has gone down hill! I was able to overlook the terrible customer service because the food was good. But now, i have received dry, tasteless, and tough suya on two occasions. They short you when you order soup as well. I will be looking for another Cameroonian restaurant.

Worst place ever, the chicken was so hard and dry, it’s overpriced as heck, the egusi has no flavor at all! And they mixed chicken and fish into my food. Worst food I’ve ever had never coming back again.
TThis restaurant deserves more than 5 stars. I had the Markarel fish; it was $25 but it is worth more than $25. The food was extremely good, very friendly staff.
