I've ordered a few meals from this restaurant both on a recommendation to try Nigerian and broader West African cuisine and also out of enthusiasm to just try something new and different.

I am happy to say that I have been happy with all of my orders. Egusi Soup w/ a side of Fufu was warm and earthy with a variety of spices. Using the Fufu (sort of akin to a large dumpling) to absorb juices was a pleasant texture compliment.

Jollof Rice...

I didn't dine in so can't give a review on that but I ordered through a 3rd party delivery and was blown away by the restaurant they called me to let me know they were out of something and had to substitute.. the food was incredible and was promised double fufu on my next visit! Highly recommend! Great customer service 👏

I got take-out from here a few nights ago. I'm relatively new to this cuisine but have been wanting to try a stew for a while now so got the black-eyed peas stew without meat, fufu, fried plantains and a side salad. Holy moly this place is good! had no idea what to expect but I have never been so grateful for leftovers the next day. Truly a gem in the neighborhood, can't wait to dine-in next time!
