“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”

Hake Fish (1 Piece)

$5.50

Sautéed hake, also called panla, is served in a savory stew.

“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.”

Ponmo (1 Piece)

$5.50

Well-cooked cow skin sautéed in a savory stew.

“I tried this restaurant once about two weeks ago, and I’ve already been back three times since, even though I live 30 minutes away! The food is absolutely delicious, full of authentic flavors, and always fresh. Every visit has been worth the drive. The staff is welcoming, and the overall experience feels like a taste of home. If you’re looking for amazing African food, this place is a must-visit! 👏🏾🍽️🌍”

Shaki (1 Piece)

$5.50

“This was my first time visiting and the food left me impressed. I had the Ofada rice and ayamashe and that ayamashe is the best I’ve ever had. If you’re looking for that “party” taste? This is where it’s at! We also had the Abula and that was great as well. The meats were very tender and they had toothpicks readily available. The portions are a lot. I left there feeling full with enough for another meal! Great food, affordable prices!”
