I taste many African food and this is the worst food I ever taste. When you go to a Hispanic restaurant or Asian restaurant you will never see a black person cook them how come is expanded cooking African food. I said I didn't want no meat in my food and it was a whole bunch of dry fish I will never go back there anymore. I had to put my own season in my own spice into the food to taste good so I don't waste my money.

I say the food was different for me but it was also a new experience. I asked our server Saker about his favorite dish. We got that and tried it. We also got some Suya, beef skewers. Spicy but flavorful. We got some jollof Rice with Plantain, fried Tilapia dish, Egusi Soup with pounded yam, We tried the stewed Goat in tomato broth. That one was my favorite. Everything was very good. I enjoyed it very much.
I say one lesson by the staff for newcomers is to teach us how to eat the food. I say every culture is different, so having a lesson I think is vital when visitors come. I didn't know you put the fufu in the egusi soup and eat it.
I want to understand the culture and respect it. It's all about a cultural experience. For one evening, I felt as if I was a new country. Eating their food and partaking in their culture.

This is one of my favorite places to satisfy my cravings for delicious cuisine. 2024 November Update. I took my family to this place to try African cuisine for their very first time. We ordered Talapia with stew, rice, spinach and plantains, moi moi, goat meat and my all time favorite Egusi soup with assorted meats and pounded yam Fufu. The service was Outstanding and the food was a delicious delicacy totally ? ? 10 star delicious. They absolutely loved it. We drove 2 1/2 hours to get there and we were not disappointed. I look forward to bringing more of my family there to experience these delicious foods and more. Keep up the excellent work ?.

Not safe for vegans. They told me they had vegan options, but the Egusi soup I received had fish bones in it. Either they don't understand what vegan is or they don't care. Either way I wouldn't trust any "vegan" food from them.

Clean environment but staffs have no manners and can’t even be corrected both Nigerian and Hispanic and I am sure he can’t do that if working for an American restaurant they so rude its African that patronizing you, the top of were you keep your meat pie and fried fish needs to be clean also what ever you use in picking the fish most be place in a plate not top of the wormer that’s collect so much dust of time

My pounded yam is white white and doesn’t even smell like pounded yam. I’ve been eating this for decades I know pounded yam when I see and this is not it. WHAT IS THIS????
The food was good, authentic Nigerian cuisine. The Jollaf rice wasn't too spicy, like some others I've tried. And the service was excellent.

Had no idea this place was actually opened, I love moi moi so when I looked some up near me it popped up in the same area and I decided to pop in. The restaurant itself wasn’t very inviting, it was dark and empty I was a little hesitant to go inside but I did, the wait wasn’t long. I ordered moi moi, jollof with veggies(spinach) and beef. $12 for all of this, portions were nice and I LOVE that the beef was included in the rice most African restaurants make you buy separately. I was a little upset and semi disappointed that the moimoi was given to me cold out of a fridge up front, when I got home the rice looked a little disappointing as it was brown vs that beautiful red we tend to see, I warmed up the moimoi and dug in! So good!! Food was great! The beef did taste slightly different as others said but NOT sour, just like they use a different seasoning. I will definitely be going back next week.

The food is always delicious, but their customer service needs serious help and training. I order my meal for pickup in order to avoid the customer service reps.
