We had Egusi with cow foot and jollof with goat. Jollof and goat were good but not spiced enough, the cow foot needed to be cooked more. I like the skin on my cow feet to be soft and suck off the bone, these were not even close. My husband liked the pastries. My grandaughter liked the jollof. I will give them another try and request a little more spice. One other thing, the amount of Egusi was scant compared to all other places i have been to before. It looked like they scraped the pot to get the little that we had. Better luck next time i guess. For a first time Nigerian food eater this place would be great because you would have a very gentle amount of spice.

This restaurant is in the basement food court of the Robinson plaza building in downtown OKC. If…read moreyou are like me and have never tried this kind of food, you should really give this a try. The best part is, they know this will be new to most people, so they offer samples. You can try everything so you know you are getting exactly what you want. I get half egusi(I'll edit this if it's spelled wrong) and half peanut soup with fufu. You have to get the fufu!!

Naija Wife Kitchen is Nigerian, but I was nonetheless intrigued. I first ordered the Suya Chicken Wings and they were really good. Of late, I've been ordering the Okra Soup, and it's so good that it's hard for me to order anything else. The first time I added fish and it was great except I hate picking out the bones. The next time I added chicken and it was perfect. It's so, so good.

Tasty and authentic Kenyan/African cuisine!!…read more We had the chance to try the Plus 254 food truck at the Dallas Reggae Fest and enjoyed our meal! The line was slow, but it didn't take long to get our food after we ordered. We got the plate with Jollof Rice, Coconut Beans, Spinach, and Plantains. We also got a side of Masala Fries. Everything was served fresh, hot, and was super flavorful! We enjoyed the curry flavor in the beans and the saucy, spicy fries. My only complaint is that the food was way too salty! Particularly the spinach side. Might have just been on off day! Would absolutely try their food again!

The menu showed many other African options but there was really no place to sit and try so we figured the samosas would work the best. Will look for their brick and mortar place and try them out.

If you enjoy spice in your life, you've come to the right place. However, if you have a very low…read moretolerance for spice...be careful! Even the Mild is spicy and the Lemon Herb (bottom of the spice level) has a kick to it. To be clear, I have zero tolerance for spice, so when other reviews say there is no spice in the Lemon Herb, they are probably used to spice on the daily.... Is this place Portuguese or African? I'm not sure! All I know is that this African Bird's Eye Chili spice is the real deal. I got the Lemon Herb Chicken Rice Bowl. It doesn't come with any vegetables, so it's pretty plain. You can order steamed vegetables, but that is mostly carrots and green beans. Hubs got the half chicken with mild and lemon herb. He is more used to spice and he was downing his water. It is packed with flavor with a punch, just not somewhere I would come regularly. The prices were on the higher side for what you get as well. The restaurant was clean and the staff was friendly and patient with us as we were newbies. Easy parking.

I've wanted to try this place for a while but the location inside The Collective has been closed…read morethe last couple of times I've been there so I was quite excited to find this new location on a recent trip to Penn Square Mall. The food was delicious I got the beef suya sticks and the coconut jollof rice, my partner got the beef sandwich and the dodo (plantains). We were both really pleased with the food and we will definitely be back. The only reason for the 4-star rating versus 5 is the fact that they had one person working the entire store during a lunch hour. It wasn't super busy but the food took a long time to come out because the gentleman behind the counter kept stopping to help people at the register. I get the strain to find good staff but having only one person seems counter productive when you're trying to push food out to customers.

Might be new location working out the kinks, but after this visit I prefer the collective location…read more This Penn square shop was slow and the food was just ok. I had the Beef Suya sandwich with dodo ($13). The sandwich was good but the Bell Peppers and Onion were just big chunks and barely cooked. Maybe that's traditional so I'm not knocking them for that. The Beef was great. Edie's dressing had a nice flavor. My big issue was the plantains were frozen and just dropped into the deep fryer, so they were served in a pool of grease and total mush. Plus I'm pretty sure they were bananas due to the sweetness and texture. It was disappointing but maybe it was an off day.
