"The Fufu With Fresh Fish Egusi Is Delicious! It Was My 1st Time Eating From Here, Hands Down Food, They Were Quick, Easy, I Made A Special Request &' They Did Exactly How I Wanted My Food. The Fish Was VERY Moist, Fresh And Flavorful"
"My Okra tasted soapy. The fufu and egusi was amazing though! I also asked for fried fish but it was fresh fish instead. Portions need to be better for the amount being paid. I spent $70 for little food. Other than that, egusi is the best on the menu. "

"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."

"Hands down the best spot for African food I've ever been to. The suya pizza is the best pizza you'll ever try."
"I love the Achu here, it's one of my favorite places to get it from, soup is nice and concentrated and the coco is good quality. The Grilled Tilapia is good as well! Wasn't a huge fan of the Suya (Grilled Beef) bc a lot of pieces were fatty but it's usually better and I wish they would've put the powder on the side, was a little soggy with it on there while it's covered."

"My new favorite Nigerian spot. As a fellow Naija babe, the Jollof Rice with Goat Meat or Fried Fish was on point! Fish fried perfectly. The Egusi Soup with Goat Meat and Pounded Yam was DELICIOUS. I would have pictures but I ate everthing that fast! I will be ordering again. "
"Just like the egusi soup the Ogbono Soup with Goat Meat and Pounded Yam is fresh and tastes great, and the portion is very good for the price, I will definitely be getting this again, and it's a must have"

"I never leave reviews. However, I was compelled to leave one this time. This may be the first time I have taken the time to write. This is perhaps one of the greatest dining experiences I've ever had on DoorDash. I've made at least 500 orders. In my life, I've had Ethiopian food all over the world. And I grew up in Strong Ethiopian communities. I have been gurshawed and have gurshawed... insofar as vegan/vegetarian -- the food at Ethiopic is out of this world, it's tastes like grandma made it but it's presented in a modern clean style... but all in all Ethiopian... I loved every single item. Perfectly seasoned, perfectly complimenting each other. I pray this place has so much success... and they gave you so much food, I'm over-full and it was so so so fresh. My colleagues thought so as well."
"Ethiopic continuously proves why it is an elite spot for Ethiopian cuisine. Having ordered from here repeatedly, the quality is remarkably consistent, but this order of Awaze Tibs was an absolute standout.
The meat was tender, perfectly seared, and rich with deep, aromatic awaze spice that delivers just the right kick. Paired with fresh injera and flavorful sides, every bite was incredible. From flavor complexity to takeaway execution, Ethiopic delivers absolute perfection every single time."

"This was by far the worst Nigerian food I’ve ever had. The jollof rice, fish, and chicken all tasted old and had a really unpleasant flavor. The fish pie was absolutely gross, and the meat pie was just as bad. I only managed to take a few bites before I had to stop eating because it tasted so bad. I ended up throwing everything in the trash and went to a different Nigerian restaurant just to get something edible. It was a complete waste of money. I definitely won’t be coming back, and I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic, good-quality Nigerian food."

"Omg! I have never done a review before but this meal deserves 100 stars. I have never tasted any food that tastes so good, fresh, home meal with a hint of buka. Everything was banging, when I saw the portion, I'm like there's no way I'm going to finish this food by myself. I finished it all!!! The chicken was falling off the phone, well seasoned, the jollof rice, a banger! The vegetable, omg! I ate with the fried yam I got on the side. I love everything about this meal!"
"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"

"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.

Usually, I feel like I have to go all the way to New York or Miami to get good, authentic Haitian food, but not anymore! 😂🙌🏾 The griot was delicious, the legume was flavorful, and the pikliz had the perfect kick. Everything tasted fresh, seasoned, and like a real home-cooked meal. I’m definitely happy I found this spot and will absolutely be ordering again. 10/10! 🇭🇹🔥🤤"

"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!"
