The goat meat was small pieces and not tender which is what you would expect for the price. The service was good they have a buffet for you to see all the food. I inquired about the suya and they said it would be $22 for an order so i declined to add it. Definitely not worth the hype unless you want to spend more.

I will definitely be back.

Solid food and excellent service! We'll start with what I ordered:…read more Jollof Efo Riro w Snapper Spring rolls Black Eye Pea Stew Pounded Yams Standout of the meal were the spring rolls with Shito dipping sauce. Just yum! It was my first time having shito. The Jollof wasn't my favorite, unfortunately, but it finally settled the debate for me once and for all - I'm team Nigerian when it comes to Jollof. Although the Efo Riro was nicely flavored, the mix of collard greens did not compliment this dish as I thought it would. I prefer it with spinach and from my Nigerian food connect (Mina's Jollof in LA). Hers can't be beaten! Black Eye Peas were unique, and the plantains were cooked nicely. Now for the ambiance: We were one of two tables during the day, so having the place for ourselves felt nice. It also looked tidy. Our waitress was a sweetheart. I forgot her name, but she was attentive. Would I return? Perhaps when revisiting ATL. Overall: The experience was enjoyable!

There was no one in the restaurant when I walked in. It kind of had a strange smell inside.

He quickly tried to say "it's going to take awhile" and when I asked how long he said "depends on what you get.

Flavorless and if it wasn't for the Suya powder it would have been inedible. The Suya was decent. Service 1/5 Ambience 1/5 Food 2/5

I am not sure what has changed but this weekend I had a very disappointing visit. The service was…read morefriendly but once I got home (45 mins away) I realized I was definitely hustled. I ordered mix meat stew with jollof and received literally 2 pieces of edible meat and 1 non edible piece. Egusi had a weird taste but garri was perfect. For $60 to cover 2 take out orders, I felt hustled. The food was already packed up so I guess if I had stopped and checked before leaving, I could have asked for the rest of the meal because there is NO WAY this is what would be served if I was dining in.

I came here on a date with a friend as an introduction to Ivory Coast/ Sengal style African food…read more It was so tasty!! I don't normally eat tilapia, but I had the Sengal Jollof rice and whole grilled Tilapia fillet, it arrived pretty quickly and had a great taste. The topping was similar to pico de gallo and carnalities curry onions on the side. I had no complaints. This is the type of place that you need a little help with the menu. The egusi soup was bangin!!! W the fufu which had a sweeter taste than Nigerian fufu. I think it was made with plantains. Delicious. I still will opt in for snapper or mackerel instead of tilapia but I peeled the skin off and enjoyed it more. Beware of the bones. It is a whole fish! But I enjoyed my experience here and will be back to try more food with friendly service.

This place is a joke! I walk in at 15 minutes before close to here, "we don't serve fried food 30…read moreminutes before closing". Seriously you are a joke! You know nothing about serving customers in the restaurant industry. Every real restauranteur knows the at 1 minute to close you are full service. Lost a customer for life! I also tip very well especially close to closing so counter dude that offered baked chicken or oxtails instead of my fried catfish list atleast $20 because I respect good service late. But whatever you'll be closed in a year no doubt

Located in a strip mall, the restaurant is pretty unassuming, though many great restaurants are…read more When you walk in, there's almost a nightclub vibe inside. Very dark and not many traditional tables and chairs. I came around lunch time and there were quite a few ladies in beautiful traditional dress (it was Christmas Eve). I had called ahead and ordered takeout and when I walked in I was promptly acknowledged. Food arrived in the quoted time (25 minutes). Nigerian cuisine is not one I'm incredibly familiar with, but I have tried many of the standard dishes. Today I went with White Rice and Red Stew, which comes with plantains. It was delicious. Piping hot and incredibly fresh. The spice level was perfect. Just spicy enough but in no way overpowering. The plantains added a sweet element which played beautifully against the spice of the stew. The only place they lost points was the price on the website is not the price I was charged. $19 on the website and I was charged $25 but maybe they just haven't updated to reflect current prices. Regardless, I really enjoyed my food and can't wait to go back and try some other dishes. Edit: Take note, it doesn't say "The Island Grill" on the sign. It says "The African Grill."

Those beef suya tacos were really good! Since they come with Jollof Rice in each taco, i think…read morethey'd be even better as a burrito. They came with steak fries, which i'm usually not the biggest fan of, but they were fried crispy so I didn't mind them. The jollof rice also tasted good on it's own - not the best Naija jollof I've had (not spicy), but solid for a restaurant/bar. Our server was really sweet as well. Even though they're open for dinner hours, it's definitely mainly a bar/lounge based on the size and setup. I will warn - if hookah is not your thing, this isn't the place for you. Since it's pretty small in there, there's nowhere to really get away from the smoke or people who are smoking. I'd go back for dinner, but would make sure I'm out before ~11pm, which is when it seems to pick up in traffic and smoke.

I can't speak to how the service is on a busy night but I haven't had any problems on the days that I've gone. Some menu items are served on select days which is a bummer but other than that, me and my friends have always been satisfied with the food. I've had their shrimp tacos, asun (peppered goat) and jollof which are delicious. My friend has also ordered their kpomo and had no complaints. I've been to a few African restaurants and this is by far my favorite. The food here is so flavorful compared to others OTP. My only con is that the music is very loud even when there's hardly anyone in the restaurant. I wished they'd turn the music down but I guess that is the culture here in Atlanta. Definitely give this a place a try, you won't regret it!
