"This was my first try with african cuisine, and Im so glad I picked this place. The Spinach & Egusi Stew was special with lots of flavor. I ordered with chicken, I received two large drumsticks, they were juicy, fried (not breaded) and it added such a nice crisp and char to the dish. Also a good amount of spice! but it wasnt too much spice for me and im usually a mild spice person. Would reccommend to anyone curious about egusi"
"Spinach & Egusi Stew:
The stew was extremely oily, and the flavor just wasn't to my taste. On the positive side, it was cooked thoroughly, and you could tell care was taken with the preparation.
Turkey Tail (Tsofi):
For the price they're charging, this felt like a rip-off. You can buy a whole pack of turkey tails at the grocery store for about the same price and get much more. What was served were just small, bite-sized pieces coated in suya seasoning, which didn't feel like a good value."

"The ONLY reason this isn't a 5 star review is because it was a little pricey especially for the portion sizes. Specifically the Mac and cheese. But the flavor was really really good on everything! The Spicy Chicken Caesar Wrap was delicious. The 12 PERi Buffalo Wings & Chips were seasoned and had lots of sauce on them & the chips were crispy! The chicken tasted fresh and it was hot when it arrived . Definitely will be ordering here again! "
"I chose the sweet potatoes as a side to the 3 Chicken Thighs. Sweet potatoes were burnt to a crisp and hidden under other sides. Small portions for the price. Food containers are not completely full. Burnt food ruins the meal."

"Could've had more egusi. Kinda looks like it's been eaten out of. More Spanish than melon seed. Flavor is nice. Looks a bit rushed & just throw in the bowl! Definitely not worth over $20.50 only 4 small pieces of plantain for the price is ridiculous."

"I'll definitely come back for seconds, I had the Smoked Jerk Brisket 1/2 LB and the Large Sweet & Spicy Smoky Baked Beans and they SLAPPED! The flavors are just perfect and the serving is good enough for 2 meals or sharing if you're into that"
"Jerk was my go to spot but lately portions have been wildly inconsistent and the quality/care seems to have gone out the window. Grilled Jerk Chicken Thigh Combo used to have at least 8oz of chicken and a generous helping of rice, now it seems to be closed to 4-5oz and a small spoonful of rice. Not the value it once was. The Smoked Jerk Pork 1/2 LB was drier than shoe leather, cannot believe someone saw that and thought serving that was a good decision. Sweet Plantains continue to be dry and portion size has also gotten smaller."

"Jollof rice was soft and soggy, Goat meat was hard, overcooked and bland, chicken was bland with NO seasoning whatsoever. Out of everything the plantain might have been the worst. I could handcount the number of plantains (WHICH WAS 5 DOLLARS) and they were so thin it felt like I was eating a paper towel. Would not touch this Restaurant even if they offered me a meal for FREE. High prices for low quantity and even lower quality "

"The red snapper was barely large enough to feed two people AND it was dry/overcooked. I can do much better for $32. Do yourselves a favor and try the Nile's snapper (when it's available) and take some notes. I gave two stars because my husband liked the plantains. They were good, but I prefer a bias cut. The Djolof rice was just ok. "
"Real authentic food. I love The Fish was sweet and had a special taste to it with the fresh crunchy veggies... boom :) The rice was a bit dry and could've been a little more portion but overall the flavor and freshness was amazing I enjoyed can't wait to order again. I shared with my family and they loved it as well. "

"Nile of Hyde Park misses the mark where it matters most. The chicken shawarma was dry and lifeless, the chips that came with the shawarma were stale, and the bread for the soup arrived still sealed in its plastic packaging. The rice was so over salted, it drowned out every other flavor. The lentil soup was merely passable.
The only redeeming dish was the kifta kabob, which was tender and properly seasoned. One well-executed item couldn’t rescue an otherwise careless meal."

"Really solid Nigerian food. The whipped okra soup was flavorful with fresh fish and good spice level. The dark fufu was smooth, sticky, and not too sour — perfect texture. Portions were generous and the food tasted authentic and homemade. Definitely one of the better African food spots I’ve tried on the road."
"The Amaka, gbegiri and ewedu were topnotch. I expect the rice and ayamashe to taste the same. Even my white colleague enjoyed it. The portions were also filling and fresh. I would definitely order again. The fried fish and goat meat were also succulent."

"As a Nigerian, this was my first time trying Ghanaian food, and l decided to go with 3. Waakye because l have heard great things about it and wow it was delicious, fresh, the beef was bursting with flavour and the portion was great.......l was so full, l had to take off my pants to create space for the rest of the food!!! My fellow Nigerians, and others please don't be hesitant to try Ghanaian food, it's very delicious 😋. Next time though l will get extra stew then also try their fufu and light soup."

"I spent over 16 dollars on six shrimp, but they were quite small. The batter was coming off, and they had a slightly fishy smell. I've ordered here a few times before, but I think I might not do so again, as I'm disappointed with the quality. On top of that, I received the wrong dessert this time."

"Me gustan mucho las empanadas, sin embargo recomiendo variedad de salsa al empaque. Ya que solo empacaron verde y solo una rosada para 8 empanadas. Que sea mitad y mitad"
"The Chicharrón is extremely over priced for what you get back. Should be no more than $5, it is not a high quality piece of meat. It's very thin and rubbery. I would not order again.
The Arroz con Pollo is a nice size but lacks flavor and its very dry. Not close to a traditional Colombian arroz con pollo.
As a Colombian it was disappointing and underwhelming. "

"First of, this is my first order from this place and I'm blown away by how tasty and well flavored my bowl was! Furthermore, the guacamole was fresh and balanced in seasoning and chips were extremely delicious. As a former chipotle lover, I typically dont have high hopes for establishments that are similar to chipotle, but this one surpassed them!! Also decent portions! "

"Wow! The food was amazing! Took a risk at ordering on DoorDash from a place we haven’t been. Plus we didn’t get the food until 2 hours later (Doordash’s fault). With all that being said I just knew the food wouldn’t be good…& it was true. Instead the food turned out to be GREAT. Can’t wait to visit the restaurant and Dine In. We ordered Curry , fataya, and yassa with shrimp. As well as Jollof. Everything was delicious, the jollof a bit too smokey for my liking but we truly enjoyed the meal. "

"I’ve ordered from Urban Turban by VeerGi multiple times, and this order was another great experience. The Chole Bhatura was excellent, with flavorful chole that had a rich, well-balanced spice profile and tasted freshly prepared. The bhaturas were soft, fluffy, and generously sized, making the portion more than satisfying.
The food arrived well packaged, and everything was still fresh when I opened it. I especially appreciated that the curry was packed securely with no spills or leaks. The quality and consistency have been impressive across multiple orders, which is one of the reasons I keep coming back.
The portions offer great value for the price, and the flavors feel authentic and comforting. It’s not always easy to find restaurants that consistently deliver both quality and quantity, but Urban Turban has done that for me. The ingredients tasted fresh, the food was filling, and the overall experience exceeded expectations.
Highly recommend the Chole Bhatura to anyone looking for a satisfying meal. Looking forward to ordering again soon!"
"Paneer Tikka Blaze is undercooked, hard and marination is still raw. Has no flavour and is terribly overpriced."
