The dishes were delightful. The portions were very generous.

The Jollof rice was very scrumptious. The presentation of food was amazing and my relatives also said that the Banga soup was really good. Well done . My mother said: The Banga was spot on

The pepper soup was not good and small. The meat were so tiny. It felt like kids menu. The soup itself felt like boiled meat soup.The puff-puff was 3 tiny puff puffs for $3. Meatpie is small as well. Could be better!Banga soup for $18 or $19 was so small and the goat meat was overcooked. The soup had lots of oil on it. I had to drain it before eating the damn thing.Also, you pay the taxes that the owner is supposed to pay when paying for the food. When I asked, I was told I wouldn't have gotten charged the taxes if I had paid with cashapp or zelle. I was like, are you kidding me?

Food is above average compared to other West African restaurants in the area. Egusi and vegetable stew were good, but Jellof rice is on the hard side and kinda dry and a bit bland. Service is mediocre at its best, they are definitely more cater to takeouts. Puff puff are good but pies are dry.

My first time visiting. I had lunch I with my sister, a local who has been here before. I had the Jollof rice and moi moi with chicken. My sister had the egusi with chicken. We shared some puff puffs.We were disappointed that they were out of the Suya beef and chicken). We both enjoyed our respective meals, so much so that we placed an order of moi moi, Jollof rice and puff puffs to go. Service was excellent.
