The food was absolutely on point! Every dish we tried was delectable! The service was really nice too. The restaurant is old and not updated, so this place doesn't have a nice ambiance, however, the food will make up for it! I have been here twice with my husband and daughter.

I stumbled into this place because I wanted to try Nigerian and was passing by. I sat with KeChee the owner and was treated like family while the order was prepared. The stewed goat, rice, joloff, dodo and fufu was delicious. They even walked me to my car on the way out.

Fantastic dining experience! It was our first time eating at a Nigerian restaurant and the owner/chef was super kind and hospitable. It felt like we were guests in her home and enjoying food that felt home-cooked. She gave us recommendations for what to order as first-timers and even made the dish not spicy for our palates as we requested. The best part was that she explained to us about the food and sat down with us to demonstrate the proper way to eat the food, including how to dip the fufu (sweet potato dough) into the ngusi (African melon seed soup). We took her recommendations and ordered the jollof rice, which had a nice tomato flavor with spices. We ordered it with the combination of beef and goat meat. It came with a side of crispy lightly fried plantains. The ngusi (soup) had a strong, earthy aroma and flavors and was very delicious. We ordered it with fresh fish. Great value as the menu prices included the tax and tip already. Easy parking in the attached lot.
