If you're in the mood for authentic African food in the Central Jersey area, I highly recommend this place. The food is absolutely delicious! The manager Michael, is very kind and welcoming. He patiently walked me through the menu and offered suggestions. I ordered the jollof rice, fufu and peanut soup, kebabs, and meat pie which resembles an empanada. The jollof rice came with baked chicken, plantains and a marinade sauce. They also have another location in Newark that's about 10-15 minutes from EWR airport.

The service was good and we appreciated that they had a hand washing station available on the main floor for use. For our appetizers we ordered puff puff which was my personal favorite. It was warm and delicious. We also ordered a scot egg, meat pie and veggie spring rolls which were also good. For our entrees, I went with goat, jollof rice and plantains and both of my friends got fish. One got the red snapper and the other got a white fish which they enjoyed. As far a my meal it was decent but the goat and jollof were more tomato based than I expected. Good flavor but definitely not the best I've had. I also would've liked if the plantains were sweeter. The only issue was that the prices on the menu did not match the prices on our check. They were higher on our check, which can be frustrating if you're expecting to spend a certain amount.

They were open again. I ordered the red snapper and jalof rice with a side of pepper sauce. It comes with plantains. This dish cost over $40. The price has just reached my ceiling of what I find to be reasonable. My pots, pans and Mr. Shoprite is calling me to get to cooking. Ugh! Oh well! It was great while it lasted. I Love this restaurant, but I will be retiring my dollars from this restaurant. I wish them the best. One whole fish, rice, plantain and pepper sauce isn't in my mind worth $40 especially for take out food. Again, I hope for all the best. I will miss the freshness and tastiness off their food but I feel like they have out priced themselves.

I love that they have options to add chicken and shrimp in your food. A lot of places haven't done it that way so I was happy. I ordered cassava leaf with shrimp and rice on the side for someone and it was 8.9/10 the flavor was good had a great kick to it and it was my first time trying potato greens and I was happy with it actually I'd always ordered Egusi soup but I wanted to try something different this time and I paid $10 for fufu enough for two people or more. The portions are fantastic I actually can't wait to eat the rest later. It was 10/10. The best fufu I've ever had. I'm a texture person and I'm part Korean and black so I didn't grow up eating African food so I could never eat fufu much I end up wasting it but here was totally different it was PERFECT I know I'll keep coming back to try their food! The pricing wasn't bad but it also can get costly. I paid $4 for a Minute Maid drink so total I ended up spending about $50 for two people and one drink.

He mentioned something that my food came with sauces and confirmed that they would but when the food came out, he declined he ever said that. I ordered the pepper soup and it was outright nasty.

We could actually hear the microwave while they microwaved our food. Very disappointing experience, I wanted to see what everyone was raving about but this is just sad.
