So we went for the Egusi soup. It was very good with the swallow. The chicken that we ordered with…read morethe soup was undercooked. But the soup and the swallow were amazing. Delicious. We also got the jollof rice and it was amazing. Also plantains were cooked perfectly caramelized deliciously. I got the goat meat side and there was only bones no meat so that seemed like a very bad deal to spend $34 for rice and two water bottles. Even if the rice was very delicious. I would definitely give Egusi soup again and the rice again, but I wouldn't get any of the meats. The people there were very sweet, but the air-conditioning was out so it was very hot in the dining room.

Everything was about 100 bucks, for 3 entrees and one meat pie. (kinda expensive, if you ask me). for myself, i had the fufu and egusi dish, and it was my first time ever trying Nigerian food. I really wanted to try it since i saw multiple videos online with people trying it and it look so interesting and delicious. honestly, it was quite an experience. You take a small piece of the fufu and shape it into a ball and dip it into the egusi soup. trust me, your hands will get very dirty after eating it. The reason i'm giving this place a 3 stars is that the portions were on the smaller side and the meat that came in the egusi soup was really tough to chew through. Flavor was good, but it was a bit on the spicy side...Also, the meat pie was kinda dry and lacking flavor. i still want to find a legit restaurant that serves fufu and egusi, but i don't know if i'll come back. Only reason i picked this place is that its the closest one to my office in coppell.

Selected this spot for birthday weekend. Sunday brunch and music. I was not disappointed with the…read moreatmosphere. The music was spot on and the MC was interactive and entertaining as well. The vibe was nice. You must make a reservation! This is what I enjoyed: Side of Lamb chops: 10/10 tender, meaty, nice smoky and sweet flavor, well seasoned. Side of Mac and cheese: 6/10 a bit dry, needs a bit more seasoning, if both of these things were not an issue it would be perfect. Oxtails and jollof rice: 10/10 oxtails were full of flavor and enjoyable. They could have been a bit more tender. Overall the flavor carried it to a perfect 10. The rice is seasoned and a bit smokey and cooked to the perfect doneness. Table bread: 9/10 puff puff style bread. They were fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside. Brought out first and provided with every meal. It had a sweet seasoning mix on it. The mix to me was more for after dinner instead of right before the meal. Dusse mimosa: 10/10 nice and stout. I prefer Dusse over Hennessy which is what was on the menu. Jerk chicken: 10/10 flavorful wings. Jerk seasoning was there and not too spicy. Cooked just right and not dry. Collard greens: 6/10 savory flavor. I am a collard greens specialist and I prefer a sweet and hot profile. Although these are just savory they were cooked to the correct tenderness. Candied yams: 10/10 get blend of cinnamon and sweet flavor. Cooked perfectly.

For an appetizer, I started with the oxtail spring roll. I will say it leaned more toward a pot roast flavor because of all the cabbage and carrots inside. It didn't quite taste like oxtail or have much of the Jamaican flavor I was expecting, aside from the little bit of gravy served with it. For our meals, my friend ordered the Poundo Fufu with Egusi Soup and Beef, and I got the Jollof Rice with Stew Beef. The jollof rice was definitely some of the best I've had, really flavorful and the meat was tender and well done. The owner, Will, was very friendly and gave us some great recommendations for other dishes to try next time. If I'm ever back in Dallas, I would definitely stop by again.

The sambusa was delicious, but the eugusi was a little bit too salty. The fufu was decent, and the…read moreserver was friendly and caring. However for some reason, I was charged extra for fufu that was not stated on the menu for egusi since I thought it was included for no extra charge, which was deceiving.

My girlfriend and I have been coming Here now for about a…read moremonth now after we stopped in on our first visit. The store is great, lots of South African groceries to choose from. We have been eating in the restaurant every visit, and we haven't had a bad experience from the food, or owners yet, (I don't expect to either.). My new favorite is the, "bobotie," and my gf likes the mince stew a lot! Bobotie has a meatloaf flavor and a bit of a sweetness from what looked like raisins. It's delicious regardless. Their breakfast is great as well! The biltong, (jerky) is a great snack to purchase, if you eat every 3 hours like I do. It'd make a good stocking stuffer around Christmas for your family and friends, if you might not know what to get anyone. All of their products in the shopping center would be Great gifts this holiday season. We will continue to come here weekly to eat, shop, and chat with the owners. They're very friendly, helpful, and make great food! Awesome bakery as well. Their loafed bread is light, fluffy, and scrumptious. I could keep reviewing every item we've had, but it would be better if you just stopped in and tried it for yourselves. Don't be hesitant in stopping in, you won't be displeased!

Went to this Halal restaurant for the first time and the overall experience was not good!…read more First of all, their website listed on Google is not correct. It directs to an article about this restaurant on D Magazine website. Not sure why the owner has not noticed and corrected that yet. If there is no website then Google should not show it at all. It is just confusing to customers. Second, their restaurant menu is not up to date. Majority of the items under "Les Grillades," "A La Braise," and "Sauces" were not available. We were told by the server that they used to make it in the past but not anymore. If not anymore, again, why the menu is not up to date? Why wasting customer's time? There is a picture of a full grilled chicken with coleslaw on Google. When asked for it, we were told it is a "Pepper Chicken" that is only available during the day time and we also have to order in advance. We didn't see this item on the menu and not sure how customers will know about this item and when to order. Pure carelessness from the owner! For the food, we ordered "Meat Pie," "Benachin," and "Afra/Dibi" chicken. Meat pie was good but little expensive in my opinion. Afra/Dibi chicken was good as well and also came up with a decent portion. What I didn't like about it is that it only came with a bunch of onions and nothing else. No sides at all which I thought was little bizarre specially for the price they are charging. I did not like Benachin! Small portion, expensive, and tasted just okay. It was just a boiled meat with some rice and vegetable curry. Vegetable curry was good but rest of the dish was just okay. I don't recommend this dish. Their customer service was iffy. We were not checked upon in a timely manner. There was a short hair African American lady and her customer service was good. There was another African American lady and she definitely needs training on her customer service and attitude. She would barely come to the table and hardly answer any questions or try to help. Rest of the time I saw her behind the counter spending time on her phone! This restaurant only has bottled water and they charge for it. I may or may not come back to this restaurant in the future.

I loved the pies, the flavor of both of them were really good and the crust was perfectly crunchy. The sauce they provided on the side was quite spicy. We decided to get the top 2 most popular items, the Benachin and Chicken Yassa. The Benachin had good stew meat and flavor, however the meat was a little tough for me. I really did love the onion and carrot mix on the side, it gave the dish so much flavor. The Chicken Yassa also had that onion mix, and this time included fried potatoes as well, which were lightly seasoned. The chicken flavor was good, but also a little on the drier side. Overall, a good experience! Portions were large too.
