This restaurant is tucked away on the end of the building. It looks sketch from the outside, but…read moreit's appears clean inside. My order was taken promptly, and I didn't have a long wait for the food. I ordered the chicken curry lunch special for $10. For my side options i choose rice & peas and cabbage. The rice was mushy, but the cabbage was the best I have had in Jacksonville. The curry chicken was standard. They fit a lot of food in that little container. If I'm in the area, I would stop in again. I wouldn't go out of my way to drive from my home there though.

Tony's Piri-Piri Chicken is a food stand that adjoins in same parking lot as Pet and Feed Store…read morelocated on the west side of Jacksonville. They just opened for business last Saturday (10/5). They specialize is Piri-Piri and Teriyaki dishes. Tony Chong (owner) created his own version of the Piri-Piri sauce which is Chinese/Malaysian/South African inspired. The sauce is a light spice mixture that compliments well into any meat. They also serve Fragrant Rice, which had a sweet light coconut taste into the rice. So I ordered the Piri-Piri Chicken with the Fragrant Rice and it was pretty damn good combo. Additionally, Tony has collaborated with Eggroll Empire to serve Garlic Crab Eggrolls, an eggroll I've never had before; delicious. Aside from the Crab meat inside the Eggroll are Mung Bean Noodles, which reminds me of how some Vietnamese Eggrolls are made. It is served with your choice of a Spicy Sauce or Garlic & Vinegar Sauce. I've tried both sauces and it was basically a 1A and 1B choice in my opinion; me giving the Spicy Sauce a slight nod. Something noteworthy: Tony has plans of introducing Peking Duck dish into the menu lineup. I'm looking forward to this as I love Peking Duck. Nom Nom Nom Come show your love for this new business.

I've been waiting to try this place. Had it bookmarked for the longest. Anyways, I was driving down…read more103rd and saw a food shack with a big sign that stated they had Garlic Egg rolls by the liquor store and thought maybe they moved, so I dropped in. The sign was exact to what's posted for this location. When I walk up the menu had wings, hot dogs, burger and fries and I was a little lost because I thought it was Asian food. I asked if they served up the egg rolls and the lady said yea, $3 a piece. I placed my order but after waiting 25 minutes and food still wasn't ready, I bounced. This is more of a for your information. Yesterday, I was going to be in the area so I called the number on the Yelp app. The poor girl picked up and I asked if they were open until 8 and she said this isn't something chicken. Not sure how long this number has been posted and she probably had no idea how to remove it. I already reported it to Yelp. I made the drive anyways and when I got there this truck was not there. It showed that it's claimed so hopefully the owner sees this review and can address if they moved.

First time being in the Jacksonville area of FL. Glad to have come across this international market…read morethat came highly recommended. I was excited to try the jollof rice and plantains....I was not disappointed. The food was very tasteful and nice size portions for meals ordered.

I ordered the okra soup and fufu. I have eaten okra stew before but this okra stew was so delicious with savory spices and lots of flavor.

As a retired chef, and small business owner I did not want to write this review. And I will be…read morebrief, as my experience was honestly so shocking and upsetting that I won't recount every detail for my own peace of mind. I also didn't want to write this, because honestly the food was delicious and I was excited to have found our new Ethiopian spot here in Jax after just moving to the area. But sadly, I'll have to restart my search as I will never come back here. Which, is sad, as so many others had great experiences. So, I'm not sure what the heck happened but it's not ok to treat customers like dirt even if you misunderstood. I don't think the customer is always right. But this was beyond acceptable. I'll bullet point it: - they gave us an OLD menu with old pricing and didn't disclose it. - they "misunderstood" our order despite having recapped it to be sure we did understand each other. Misunderstanding is my word, they called me a liar. -when questioning my bill, the server got hostile, accusatory and unprofessional despite my coming with a smile and starting with the compliment that food was great. - they charged us for 3 dishes instead of the two we ordered and overcharged us compared to menu. And the service was amongst the worst I've experienced. -server was inhospitable and rude despite all of us in our party just being happy to be there. So again food was great but the experience was like none any of us have ever had. I get people have bad days but this was not ok. And not disclosing your menu is old and prices have all increased is not a good business model. I get menus can get expensive. But some white out and a sharpie would be just fine. Or just tell us the prices are a little higher now. Anything. But I'm so traumatized I can't even go there for take out. And all those in our party were shocked. So fair warning. Perhaps you'll have a better experience and this guy just had a bad day but I won't subject myself to such unprofessional hostility when I'm just trying to enjoy a nice meal. Too bad.

It's inside the Pecan Flea Market…read more I went here only for the African food. I was a bit taken back by the outside of this flea market. I had no clue where the establishment was that I wanted to go too. I passed by a lot of stuff. I'm just going to say, one man's junk is another man's treasure Then I ran into the food spot. The owners are really nice. I saw they had the oxtails, but after she explained the menu, she said the place is so small that they pick one main item off the menu for the day. So today it was the fried chicken, mac n cheese, and green beans. I also go a side chicken pie. The plate came out, and that big section was full of creamy mac n cheese, I think I had 4 or 5 pieces of chicken, and it was flavored to perfection. The mac n cheese was good, the green beans, needed some flavor, but I wasn't expecting green beans so it's ok. The chicken pie was full of flavor as well. Not lacking at all! I think it had cheese in it as well. If you're a vegetarian, today, the only options would be the green beans and Mac n cheese. Due to me being picky, I was unable to get the African food experience. I really wanted to try the fufu, but I don't like okra, and what it's served with is something with Okra in it. She wouldn't just sell me the fufu, I could have h made something at home to go with it. lol They are only open on Saturday and Sunday from 12:00 pm to 5:00 pm

Their potato leaf stew is cleansing feeling and just the right amount of spice to remind you it's food for your soul.

Located in the far corner of the market, near the restrooms and N-40.
