Cafe De Vivre

Honestly so so disappointed. I’m a long time customer and I’ve always loved the suya and Jollof rice at this restaurant. But things have changed lately. The last two time I ordered suya and Jollof from here I have been extremely disappointed. The last time I ordered the beef suya it tasted spoiled, I didn’t say anything because I was hoping it was a one time mistake. Fast forward to today, I wanted to give this place another try but not only can I not eat the beef suya but the Jollof rice is also not good at all. I don’t know if they changed the recipe but y’all need to go back to the original because this isn’t it AT ALL. I just wasted my money AGAIN.

The suya was just like we have in Nigeria, fresh, juicy and chewy. I'm impressed. Very very nice. Their pastry though much more expensive than elsewhere is worth every penny and every bite. I will visit again when I come back to Houston.

Hands down the best sausage rolls, meat pie and chicken suya in Houston. Suya is also good, it's so good I've heard he supplies other Naija restaurants.

The food here is nasty. I ordered from here via grubhub and i was utterly disgusted. The meats were almost spoilt and was past their due date. Everything smelt bad, which causes one to subconsciously question the hygiene of the kitchen it was made in. I couldn't eat the dodo as it smelt like it was fried with oil that hadn't been changed for 7 days. Their food is not cheap either, so one wonders why they have to re-use 7 day old oil to fry things. I will never eat food from here again.

Food was bomb! I’ve tried many African cuisine restaraunts but as humble as this one is in size and exposure , it makes up for in taste and quality of food! Closest thing to home cooked !! And very down to earth people !! MUST TRY!!
