Eba Wrap

$5.50

A vegan wrap of eba, a smooth dough made from cassava.

“delivered a truly satisfying meal. I ordered the panla fish in stew along with a piece of hake fish, and everything was done right. The panla was perfectly cooked—tender, flaky, and well seasoned. The stew was rich, savory, and deeply flavorful, the kind that tastes slow-cooked and intentional. The hake fish was also well prepared, cooked just right, and clean in flavor. Ordering the eba already prepared saves me time in the kitchen.”

Ogbonno Only

$10.50

A vegan seed-based dish cooked in vegetable oil; contains tree nuts.

“I enjoy myself anytime I visit the restaurant. They have a solid good customer service and have variety of West African foods, prepared in a lovely environment and well serve to customers. The efo riro is superb, ewedu and gbegiri is fantastic and their solid foods are very okay. The jolly rice is on another level, the protein is very okay and there prices are very reasonable and affordable. I give them 10 over 10”
