It is very nice place to eat Naija food. The food is very good and the customer service is top notch. The atmosphere is extra ordinary...

This place is amazing! My parents and I ordered two goat and chicken platters (included rice, plantain and coleslaw) as well as Egusi soup (included pounded yam). I mean what can we say? Mouth watering and flavourful! I could eat this anyday anytime - soooo good! Thank you for adding a little extra too! Welcome to the neighborhood and wishing you continued success with your business! Ps: my mom even called the restaurant and spoke with the owner to rant and rave about the food LOL!

Yum Yum Yum!! I love their efo riro and pounded yam! The jollof combo and egusi is also tasty. I wasn't disappointed by my online and in-person orders. The lady who took orders on during the AFCON finals live viewing is a gem, great job everyone!

This restaurant deserves a million stars. Yesterday day I have tried the Egusi and it was so delicious also the amount of food was good too. The customer service was excellent and atmosphere was very nice. It was my first time trying Nigerian food and I’m excited to try the other dishes too. Thank you for everything.

So the place was friendly I don't have experience with African food so the owner was nice to let me try before I ordered. We got a mixed platter and the beef was good but the goat was the best. Plates were generous proportion and flavourful. Over all the experience was good. Wish to try more options tho.

First time here and from start to finish was excellent. Obi (hope I spelled it correctly) was a fantastic host. Told me about the food. Great attitude. The food was delicious. First time there but not my last.

A very delicious meal with good portion of meat Deserves a second turn. Oh! And the inside of the restaurant is really impressive. They are probably going to be having a live band or something. You will have a great sense of Home when here. The customer experience was great too
