I got the Efo Riro & peppered turkey. The peppered turkey had great flavor but it was way too dry, I had to simmer on my stove with water to make it more tender and the efo riro was tasty.
Suya was good but they burned the rice and the portion is too small for the price. I recommend southern suya
I ordered the lamb fried rice and suya tonight since I was in the mood for Nigerian food but to my surprise the rice was unbearable spicy. I’m not new to Nigerian spices at all but on a scale from 1-10 it’s at a 10! Like literal heartburn after one bite so I turned around and told the lady in there she could’ve told me it’s very spicy because I vent tolerate this and spent $40. All she had to say was that it’s Nigerian food like as if I don’t know Nigerian food. I told her I’d appreciate if she could make a new rice less spicy or atleast provide a different rice and she said there’s nothing she can do and I should call management or go on the “website”… anyway the rice was inedible for me though the flavor is good, the heat is just too much and that’s coming from someone who likes pepper.
Very nice young ladies and the atmosphere was small and intimate. I ordered 2 turkey combos for 25$ each. Luckily I checked the food prior to leaving and to my surprise I was given turkey bones. The young lady apologized and remade the turkey, and it was still a very small portion. The food lacked flavor and the rice was dry with like 8 bay leaves in it.. We will not be returning.
I didn’t initially plan to write a review for this restaurant, but after tasting the food, I felt compelled to share my experience. I'll evaluate this restaurant based on six factors: Quality of Food, Price, Ambience, Service, Location, and Parking. Let’s dive in: Quality of Food I only ordered one meal—the Jollof Rice and Suya—and it was exceptional. Based on this dish alone, I would give the food 5 stars. If the quality of the Jollof Rice and Suya is indicative of their other offerings, then I imagine the rest of their menu is equally delicious, if not better. A few highlights: the food was served quickly, tasted fresh, and the Suya was particularly outstanding. I'm very discerning when it comes to Suya, and this restaurant did not disappoint. It's clear they know what they’re doing, an
