Tip: always call ahead. They usually say 15 minutes but I come in 20 if I don't wanna wait, still no complaints - perfection takes time. The food: now, granted, I am an African American woman who grew up on southern recipes but for some reason this food gives me comfort and love. Always flavor up. Always fresh. Always prepared nicely. I usually order the collard green, or spinach, and I use to enjoy cassava but have since strayed away because of the greasiness. They have the perfect amount of meat in the dishes, and the portions are friendly. Overall, I love Mila's. The people who serve there are so sweet. I now drive 24 minutes every weekend to get my fixing and I have no regrets. Love ya Mila!

The seating area in the back deserves a better presentation, but the food? 10/10. Now, usually when I go I ALWAYS get the collard greens. They taste fresh, flavorful, has a nice crunch, and a hint of spice. The guy who owns the restaraunt with his wife is so sweet. I enjoy seeing him each time that I come in. My first time here was in 2013. I'll always come back.

It's all been consistently made fresh well and perfectly seasoned. Staff is always super helpful even though I butcher the pronunciation of some dishes. There's plenty of meat options but you can get them all vegetarian if you want. My personal favorites are the beef patties and sweet plantains. You'll find that this place gets extremely busy right around lunch and dinner time, but always stays clean despite it being small and seating maybe 7 groups at a time. If you're looking for an ethnic/home style option this is it!

Any seasoned foodie will tell you that the ones tucked away, perhaps a bit more rough around the proverbial edges and missing bells and whistles are where you will find the most authentic (and delicious) cuisine. City Afrique was an INCREDIBLE experience in West African fare. I'm accustomed to food from this region, when cooked here, is often overly spiced, too salty or too hot. I ordered the okra sauce with fufu and it was the best I've ever eaten. And I've eaten a lot of okra sauce. The cook allowed you to add hot pepper as desired and the salt level was subtle and supportive of the sweet fufu and savory okra. I couldn't stop eating it- it was simply a perfect balance traditional flavors. Prices are very reasonable for home cooked West African dishes, which require extensive simmering and taste testing. Without rice, regular size dishes (they have large too) range around $11-16. With rice or fufu, prices range between $19-25. The ambiance and decor proudly displayed select traditional Liberian art and cultural pieces, along with other wall hangings reflective of bigger stores. The host greeted me warmly and shared it was his uncle's restaurant. When I shared my delight with the flavors, he brought out the cook. She was genuinely thrilled that her cooking was appreciated- the sign of a true culinary artist. They also have a small party room they rent out for $500 a night. You have to try this spot if you like West African fare. I will be back.

First time coming to Value foods and only second time trying African food. Overall great…read moreexperience. It's a grocery store with a butcher shop and then the deli counter in the back of the market. There was a line of about 6 people and after we lined up, more people waiting. The person ordering ahead of me was telling me that he was getting the whole fried tilapia and plantains, which was his favorite. Not gonna lie, sure did look good! We ordered the red okra stew, collard greens, and goat soup. They offer regular and large sizes and your choice of fufu or rice. Also ordered the fried plantains and a meat pie. The guy behind the counter was friendly and helpful. He let us know which ones contained peanuts (my son has a peanut allergy) and which ones were considered spicy (goat stew) but since I love spicy foods, I didn't mind. My review of the food: -Red Okra with fish and fufu: delicious, greasy, and flavorful. Be careful because the fish was a big chunk and still had bones. -Collard greens with meat and fufu: I think meat was chicken. Our favorite dish of all of them. Flavorful, greasy, and delicious. -Goat Stew and rice: so full of meat (with bones). The Goat chunks remind me of pork belly (fatty, chewy, flavorful). This stew was spicy. Strong goat flavor. Had habanero peppers. -plantains: they gave us so much! Starchy and sweet. Yummy -meat pie: was just ok. Felt a little dry. Overall good experience. Food was so flavorful and full of spices. A little more greasier than how I normally like to eat but the grease also helped with eating the fufu. Total bill was about $60. Was enough food to feed about 5-6 people. No seating area. Everything is packaged for to-go orders.

Finally the employees, the grocery side and restaurant are very clean. I'll not hesitate to recommend this place to anyone. Keep up guys for your business and making the community happy.

Baarakallah is set back from the street and tucked inside a corridor that is shared by a Halaal grocery shop. Once you arrive inside, the clientele may observe you but it's fine. The server at the front is approachable and can describe the dishes and is very prompt with service. And the food is spicy yet balanced, savory but not over seasoned. The prices are very affordable for the amount of food you get! We were very happy with the beef over rice and the samosa style pastries. Great food and a unique experience.

Both were delightful, and the Somali-styled black tea was deliciously like a chai tea. Highly recommend.
