    On a random week night I was on that side of town waiting for my friends to come meet me to eat next door. While waiting I decided to check out this place. I so wish I made the plans to eat here instead! When I walked in there was a full Nigerian family from Dallas enjoying dinner after a long day at Seaworld. Not 5 minutes later I became part of the family including the restaurant owners! Since I had plans for dinner I only ordered the Suya to try. Until this day I still regret not trying more things on the menu! I live far so going to this side of town isn't easy. I cannot express about the ambiance at this restaurant! I got a glimpse of how it feels like to be in Nigeria! They came out with empanadas giving them to me for free to try! This is the real definition of hospitality! And yes Nigeria became on my high list of places to travel to! I will definitely be back to this restaurant soon!

    JOLLOF RICE 2 MEAT

    We've been searching for a good smoky jollof rice and suya beef we once had, never could find any quite matching. Alas! We came across Ultra Kitchen and their jollof rice and beef suya are on point! Beef we think they make it even better, more tender! My husband and son found this place first and insist that's the first place we needed to go after my months long trip away. They were so right!! The service is excellent. A very family business and so warm and friendly! The place is very clean and nice as well. Overall such an enjoyment. We licked the plates (see our before and after pics!) and definitely will be a usual there from now on! We still need to try their fufu and other dishes! Do plan for extra 15-20 minutes for the cooking though. It takes time, effort and heart to make these wonderful dishes fresh and amazing! And it's totally worth the wait!!

    went in to try fufu and had the egusi soup with beef and chicken as my protein. also had coconut rice plate with chicken and beef as well. owners/chefs kept coming out and interacting with customers 10 out of 10 delicious!

    The place looks amazing on the inside, well decorated. It is looking like you are about to have a great feast here but then you wait 1.5 hours to receive your food. And it wasn't even fresh. If you have had stew before, you know it doesn't look like that in the picture. My friends rice was half cooked and the meat tasted like days old. There was 1 guy running the whole place, he was working hard but he can't do everything you know.

    Jollof rice with plantains.  My camera is blurry for some reason. It was beautifully plated!

    A new cafe serving up Nigerian food on the Culebra corridor to 1604. The Cafe looks to be set up for events and catering. The woman running the show is super friendly and informative. I tried the jollof rice and plantains along with some suya. I didn't have time but she also has scotch egg and puff puff which I haven't seen in town. This shop happily reminds me of the small Nigerian cafes around Houston.

    I don't know if this is authentic Nigerian food or not, but it is delicious. The jollof rice was perfect

    Menu looks so professional!!!

First time: service was cool-shoulderish but the food was fantastic. We were all BLOWN AWAY. I thought the price a little high for what you get. I swear, there was an issue with my order. I'm telling you now...I didn't order the tofu, so when they delivered it to my table I asked....but they showed me my receipt, which said I did. I was skeptical, but whatever. I think the touchscreen ordering screwed me... Y'all, I wouldn't order tofu in a million years, I don't like it...but ended up eating the entire dish. It was fantastic! Talk about being surprised. Today, was extremely careful on the touchscreen when ordering, and went with the beef curry and chicken. My thoughts when it came out: is there even any beef in this? This is soup, not curry. Oh, and it's not even hot. It's barely even warm. Then, a co-worker was legit served the wrong dish. So, she goes to bring it to their attention, and the server borderline argues with her ...basically telling her "yes, that is what you ordered" - even though she had a receipt showing otherwise. Service is not friendly. Food costs too much. Ambiance is a mix of hole-in-the-wall, eclectic, retro...walls covered in weird posters. I like the vibe, seriously, I just wish the food was worth it and the people were nicer.

Try, in this given year to frequent a place maybe minutes from you. I am surrounded by spots I have never tried before. I am guilty of passing up a business based on its facade. Soups & Rolls definitely fits in this category. As I stated in my last review some of the best flavors in the city reside in the most precarious places. This place, which provides flavorful Vietnamese and Chinese fare is no different. It is another place in the Westside that quietly makes fantastic food. It used to be a Central American restaurant but in this area nothing is permanent. When I went the mistake was parking in the back. Not a problem, as I went to the proper entrance. In my opinion the age of Instagram and Tik Tok has aided bias on the part of the patron. Customers are seeking places that have an ambience to document their experiences. Via photoworthy posts on social media or selfies. So much so the meal becomes secondary or an afterthought. If you are expecting a giant dragon with waterfalls or a modern lighting that highlights the room you will not find it. Its table and seating is very humble, as the owners. We sat down and one of the friendly servers took our orders. Their menu is extensive with pho, lemongrass chicken, spring rolls etc. In addition they do carry some Chinese dishes in case you aren't into Vietnamese fare. But what cruel human being wouldn't be? I have always wanted to try a bahn mi for the longest time.. The thing is I'm not into pork. The owner suggested a beef one. I ordered that and a mango boba tea. My partner ordered spring rolls and a bowl of vermicelli. No sooner was I looking at the tiger painting on their wall did all food items arrive. Everything was hot and fresh. The bahn mi was gigantic. It was a huge french hoagie roll stuffed with beef, carrots and cilantro. I must confess I'm not a fan of cilantro but it fit here perfectly. The meat was tender and flavorful. It came with accompanying fries. I tried my partner's spring rolls and they were some of the best I have ever had. The rolls were fried with an equally flavorful filling. In addition the mango boba was really good. I like the consistency of mine to be thick. If I stick my straw into the boba and it stands straight up I know it is good. The chef came from the kitchen to check on us. He tried to explain that the bahn mi and the torta are very similar. But then again most cuisines share a commonality. I understand people's hesitancy to try a place in precarious neighborhoods. I implore you to try a place in your locale. If not, and you are up for an adventure please check out "Soups & Rolls" in the Westside. The service and food are both excellent. Next time I'm getting that big bowl of Pho with extra Sriracha sauce. First, I have to learn how to properly pronounce it.

I ordered the crispy dumplings (pork) and spring rolls as appetizers, and the spicy noodle soup as my entree. My server came to take my order, and brought me the items as they were ready. The entree came out before the appetizers. The spicy noodle soup was spicy (as named) and it was good, but it was incredibly oily and the noodles were overcooked, so I didn't eat much of it. I would definitely recommend ordering this with rice, or taking it home and making your own. The dumplings and spring rolls were crispy, but nothing special. I did like the duck sauce they had -- I would have asked my server for more of it, but she was busy in the back or something, not sure. I wish she would've checked in on me a bit more during the visit so I could have gotten more napkins and sauce. The service was alright. I wish I would've gotten checked on a little bit more, but she was nice and helped me pack my noodles to go. Overall, this spot wasn't terrible, but if I had to choose, I'd probably try another place.
