9JA FLAVOR BY SESSYKS

The owners are super welcoming and take the time to explain the menu for anyone new to African food. The chicken egusi and fufu was full of flavor, and it made trying something new really easy and fun. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to!

Although we didn't book online because Google Maps indicated it was a restaurant, we found that it was actually a takeout place. The staff was very accommodating and took our orders promptly, with our food ready in about 40 minutes. The main highlight was the extensive menu, and the food was definitely worth the wait, it was delicious! However, she indicated that they will be relocating to be able to establish as a functioning restaurant.

I went in there expecting a pleasant place to order food for my sister who has cancer to cheer her up and give her the meal she desired to try for the first time in a cozy environment. The name of the restaurant is not on the door, when we went in the place was dark (during the day) and a tv show with cursing in it (what if we had kids). The lady that came out and said you gonna have to wait a while in a dismissive manner as if she was upset we chose the place. She could've said, "Hello thank you for coming. We are backed up and expected wait time is....." I gave it the benefit of the doubt and we sat down anyway.

Drove 2 hours down to make it there before he closed, got there and was greeted with the best customer service I’ve received! Was a very rough day which he made better for me little did he know, made my day!

I order the goat, fish & goat okra Egusi. I gave 4 stars, bc of the texture of the meats. The goat wasn’t as tender, as I thought it would be. It was a bit rubbery. The fish was a bit tough. The okra tasted like they were cooked long enough. The flavors were great, and I loved the fufu. Even though there no salt added to the fufu, the flavor from the Egusi helps in that aspect. I was shocked by the prices. I’ve eaten at African restaurants before, and what I paid for those 3 dishes, I could’ve gotten 5-6 meals at others. I’m not sure if it priced that way, bc they don’t get much customers, or what. Also, I was expecting more Egusi than what I received for $28-$30. Example: previous African restaurants I’ve eaten at, I pay $17 for Egusi/Saka Saka with 2-3 large size fufu balls. This restaur
