JOY & PEACE KITCHEN

I had the Egusi and my boyfriend had the Jollof Rice. So delicious and great service! The gentleman who works there was very kind and even gave us free puff puff to start.

Don’t be intimidated if you have never tried African food. The owner was very helpful and helped us order based on food preferences. We had Egusi, fufu, okra stew with chicken and plantains. He explained how to eat it and it was so delicious! There are numerous options ranging from Asian hibachi to oxtail and tripe.

Food was nothing like described in the menu or pictures. Took a long time to get Nothing!!!! $80 wasted!! No onions and the fish was not fresh with veggies overcooked!!

This was originally a Japanese restaurant called Sushi Star until it was bought out by the guy who owns it now. I used to go to Sushi Star every week, but I had to stop going once it became what it is now. The food is outrageously overpriced, they began charging customers for veggies in a hibachi fried rice of all things. The restaurant's decor was switched from nice and clean looking tables and chairs to a very cramped set of tables covered in those old sticky tablecloths you see at rundown 50 year old Italian restaurants. The wait times grew exponentially longer and my food was never ready when I arrived. The guy who ran the register, whom I assume is also the owner, isn't very good at customer service. He even tried to secretly tack on extra charges I didn't ask for and insisted I did

Finally, an African restaurant in Charlotte that truly means business! The food, flavor, and presentation were on point. Hoping they keep this same energy and consistency!
