It's a bright, casual room, large enough that you can sit away from other tables.

This was so incredibly good I honestly had no words as I was eating it. I got the fufu and egusi soup with goat meat, chicken and beef. Everything was fresh, delicious and tasted like it was made with so much love. The entire staff was so sweet and welcoming. The food does take some time to prepare (around 30 minutes) because it is homemade but in my opinion it is so worth it, especially if you love Nigerian cuisine. I was having such a bad day until I got here and this meal turned it all…

MY MANNNN Veronica is DA BOMB. I was SO surprised at how DELICIOUS this is. This is my first time eating Nigerian food and it is SO FLAVORFUL. This is definitely worth a try if you're feeling adventurous. I wish I lived closer to here, I would be coming here WEEKLY to try all their dishes. Great price. Amazing food. 100/100 experience.

My first time ever having fufu and egusi soup and I will most certainly be back for more! The soup was so flavorful and Had three whole chicken drums sticks!! the fufu was so soft and easy to eat. The dining area is elegant and large enough that you can easily be seated away from another patron for a more intimate dining experience. Service was as quick as it could be, they make everything fresh so if you go in early be ready to wait a little but it's going to be worth it.

Food was very authentic West African. We ordered Jollof with mixed meat red stew and fish and then Eba and Okra Ogbono goat stew. It was so delicious. Food was freshly made to order and owner was on hand to greet customers. Very friendly staff.

A beautiful place to eat African food. The soups are so giving from the edikankon vegetable soup always freshly cooked and delicious, the egusi, okro/ogbono soup, efo riro, I love the fact they have varieties of swallowing like pounded yam, eba, oat meal, malaria etc. Of course their jollof rice is superb comes a side stew, plantain and protein of choice. Its my number one place to go for my African meal.
