This is by far one of the worst restaurants that sell African food in the whole of Texas. I’ve been consistently ordering from this place and jollof rice with goat meat has always been my go to order but I usually get it via delivery with a piece of goat meat and chicken. This time I decided to get two pieces of goat meat and chicken but what was sent to me was ridiculous. The first goat meat was small which I was just going to ignore but the second was just a piece of BONE. I put a call through and whoever picked gave a silly response. It’s okay for your food to be pricey if it meets the standard but if you’re charging those prices but not delivering on quantity or quality then there’s an issue. This will be the last time I buy from you guys. I originally came here to complain about a previous order where I was literally sent BONE instead of meat. I was given a number to call, but after calling multiple times with no response, I finally reached the owner today. Instead of apologizing, he immediately sounded skeptical and even implied that people “take advantage” of situations like this to get free replacements basically suggesting I was lying. He then asked if I could delete my comment. I told him I would after the issue was properly resolved. He agreed and promised to replace the BONE from my last order. Based on that promise, I placed a new Uber Eats order for Jollof rice, Amala, with soup and assorted meats and chicken and I called him right after. He assured me everything would be taken care of. When my food arrived, nothing was corrected regarding my previous complaint, absolutely nothing. No replacement, no fix. When I called back, he claimed he “forgot” to tell his staff. Btw, this is a very laughable statement! At this point, the dishonesty is obvious and i regret believing you the first time or even reaching out to you since you’re not even accountable. I’m attaching a photo of the stale food I received today. (Yes! The Amala and soup was stale but the jollof was ok) This place does not care about customer satisfaction at all, they only care about their pockets and selfish interests. I spent almost 50 bucks on today’s order expecting the issue to be resolved, only to receive stale food and absolutely no correction at all. You care more about how people perceive your restaurant online but not willing to be accountable. Still the worst African restaurant in Texas, you’re never beating the allegations!! Zero accountability!!! As his wife, I want to clarify: You think we would spend $50 to fix a mistake that cost about $12? My husband explained the situation to you, yet you continue to make excuses and refuse accountability. This is your problem to handle, not ours. Shifting blame and claiming others “take advantage” of the same issues does not address the real problem. You repeatedly fail to take responsibility for your mistakes, instead making it seem like your customers are at fault. You even requested that we take down the post, yet no accountability was taken. Well, this post remains because it reflects the truth.

A very cool atmosphere very inviting like the vibes of the restaurant. I enjoy the wallpaper with information on the various leaders of Nigeria. The staff were very helpful in being able to not decide with the shoes, but in giving us a sample so that way we could taste some different cuisine. I’ve never had Nigerian food, but definitely would highly recommend this location. The vegetables were really well spiced and flavorful was delicious a little bit tougher than what I would like in eating meat, but I thought it was a great place to get Nigerian food. Note my rating system: 1 Star: I wouldn't recommend 2 Stars: Didn't hit my standards 3 Stars: Average (nothing special) 4 Stars: Above Average. Would recommend. Still looking for the 5 Star. 5 Stars: Top of their game. Great food. Great service. Would recommend and plan on returning.

I wanna start with the meat pie which was dry as hell and lacked any flavor. I was nearly choking on the damn thing. Then I got two beef and rice bowels and one of them didn’t even have beef. I wanna point out that they charged 5 dollars extra per bowel for a meat. And the one that did get beef is a freaking joke! Might as well not have given me any beef at all

This cafe was recommended by a co-worker. The service was great, and the servers were friendly. The restaurant looks nice and clean. The food is great! They had multiple choices of cooked food. I tried the stewed goat meat, jolof rice, grilled chicken, and meat pie. All are delicious. I highly recommend their meat pie. It's very tasty with full flavors. For drinks, I tried the pineapple ginger juice, and it's the best and one of the must try!

For someone who never goes out of their comfort zone my best friend made me try this place today and I can’t say nothing bad about it. The food is phenomenal. The seasoning and taste is amazing. I’ve always seen videos about eating this type of food and I’ve always been intrigued to try it, but never had the guts to do so I’m so glad I did today every bit of it!! Highly recommend this place, Staff was so nice and also gave me a sample platter to try everything he had before ordering to make sure that I liked it, he also explained to me what was in detail, and the mixed drinks were very good as well
