"The steak and plantain taste good. The jollof tastes kinda stale today. But usually, the jollof is good. The restaurant is good. Some items can be hit or miss depending on the day tho."
"Generous portions, but the suya misses the mark on authenticity. While you get a lot of food for the price, the suya unfortunately doesn't taste like real suya. It completely lacks that signature smoky, charred grill flavor, and it doesn't even look like it ever touched a grill. On the bright side, the plantains were a 10/10—perfectly cooked. Just be aware that their stock picture is highly misleading; it looks like you get two side orders, but you actually only get one."

"Big fan of west African food and was looking for something new to try. I judge Senegalese restaurants by their theibu jenn - which wasn't on the menu - but the Dibi Chicken and Macaroni and Cheese didnt disappoint!

"The Eru was absolutely good and the most the way the Gari foufou is made wad excellent not hard like stone as you would find in certain place in West Africa. Bravo to that magic cook who did this successfully
.
I would have liked the Eru with fish and shrimp.
I liked the chicken but to have the Eru with mixed chicken, smoked fish and shrimp with crab added will give the Eru a very good perfume as we have in Togo and Benin .
I have really enjoyed my food one order served two meals. Good value for money and it's healthy.
Can you have the Eru done with peanut oil instead ok palm.
Thank you for this comfort food so well anticipated today.
Best regards"
"I ordered the same thing two days in a row. I don't like that their meals are inconsistent. The only thing consistent was the rice. The second time I ordered I didn't get any plantains, the chicken in the Signature Chicken Meal was smaller and hard. The Sausage Rolls was hard as a rock. I couldn't even dig my nails into it"

This is my second time ordering from this establishment and the first time I ordered the rice noodles with double lamb and fried plantain, with the cucumber salad and suya rice.

"You will not be disappointed, this food healing for my mind, body and soul. the food flavorful and seasoned to perfection."
"Pepper Soup : there were too many different types of goat meat,I believe there was a cut cow or goat tongue in there as well with cow skin and some other parts I couldn't recognize. I prefer less meat . $19 for small soup in a container :( . Did not taste like regular spicy pepper soup. Was a little watery.
Moin Moin :was hot but okay, I notice some fish in it and it makes it not very appetizing to eat without worrying about swallowing some.
Vegetable Soup (Efo Riro) : It was okay, I did not find it tasty, took a few bites maybe three to taste it better. notice it was cooked in palm oil, along with the pepper soup."

The portions are hearty and worth the money, especially if - like me - you enjoy having a nice lunch from leftovers the next day. You can't go wrong with the 16. Doro Wot and 9. Abyssinia Vegetarian Combination . 5 stars."
"I was looking forward to trying Abyssinia, and I love lamb, but while the Tibs sauce was good, the lamb itself was overcooked and it didn't taste fresh at all. 😑"

Only thing, the Wakye is soooo dry and no flavor at alllike its been sitting for days dry. No way this rice was cooked fresh or even cooked today at all."

"Ever dish is appetizing . I only finished part of the dish of curry chicken . I'm a little let down because I was expecting the curry chicken to have a lot more meat in the food container that it was in but the flavor of the chicken juices is so wonderful that I can already tell I'll be returning soon . However I'm sure the oxtails and goat plate will be liked and taste excellent too . I have no serious about the Caribbean meal it's amazing and all of my drinks came with the order . The cream soda in particular is so good that it may really make me get five of those and I was really pleased with every dish that was prepared and served so I'll be ordering five more of those cream soda without adding a dinner I'm going to be reheating some more meals later because I'm so full right now . Tropicana and the Caribbean grill will be my two favorite restaurants . I'll place separate orders for two meals and beverages from each of them so please don't go out of business I will always be there to support your company "
"Egusi soup with Assorted Meat it was very bland, it taste like cheddar cheese. It didn't have any spice. The meat was very chewy. I also got the Oxtail (Large) the oxtail flavor was good but the size of the oxtail was very small (chopped up meat with bones) with a big portion of rice, very small amount of cabbage. For the amount I spent I wouldn't order here again. I am very unpleased. "

"Excellent as always! Prompt, accurate service with instructions followed, boxes labelled as to which contain mild food, absolutely delicious, great selection, cooked to perfection, every morsel completely tasty! Perfect!
Oh, what did I eat, you wonder? The Dinich Wot (Potato Stew) I had never seen or heard of before so naturally, it was a must! Nicely spiced, saucy stew! That was had with a side of Ater Kik/ mild yellow split peas and the 'regular' injera served in America .... My dining partner and I shared most everything including my Fosolia with a side of Kay Misir -- spicy red lentils -- and the authentic Ethiopian injera (the original teff rather than teff mixed with wheat -- thinner, more sour-tasting, with a totally different long-term bodily effect!) -- and a delicious, crispy lentil sambusa for to end! Again, it was just perfection! Mmm ... ! :-D"

"This is my first time trying African Cuisine and I will say 10/10 recommend!!
I’m so glad I chose Juneteenth to try African food!
The Ogbono is so good! It is very spicy, idk if it comes that way. I will try to get regular next time. I thought it was completely vegetable, I had beef or stew meat - it was tender.
The pounded yam goes well with it, it reminds me of a ball of instant mashed potatoes. It helps with the spice.
The Moi-Moi is good! I might eat it for breakfast. The texture is smooth and solid. Its similar to tamale.
The Suya was a little tough. The purple sliced onions were really good and spicy as well.
The meat pie was good! I got chicken, it was flavorful. I was expecting the chicken to have more juice to it.
Overall each item was full of flavor and spices. I will reorder this again along with a dessert!! I think this is a great place for a first timer! If you have never tried African cuisine, be open minded and give it a try!"

"4. Pounded Yam Served with Your Choice of Soup & Meat. Is my ultimate favorite meal I always get the pounded yam and cassava leaf with goat meat, it's a hit every time.
"
"EVERYTHING WAS COLD AND NASTY WHEN IT ARRIVED... My order was ready when the Dasher got there so, my food sat for an hour before a Dasher was assigned to my order. This place is selling FAKE AFRICAN DISHES!!!!!!! I ordered Pounded Yam with Egusi and it was awful. The pounded yam was mashed potatoes rolled into a ball and the bowl of spinach was NOT EGUSI. My Jallof rice is mushy.. Also ordered the "Jumbo Shrimp" for $4.99 and they are NOT jumbo. The shrimp option has no description, so I was given Frozen Coconut Shrimp that were cooked in bad grease. I'm so pissed. I spent $56 and could not eat the food. I feel like I was robbed of my money and Doordash acts like there is no understanding of what's going on. If Doordash can't accommodate me for this terrible experience, MANAGEMENT should!"
