"The Curried Chicken Dinner and Beef Patty are the best of the DMV area that I consistently order for lunch and dinner: generously portioned with fresh vegetables, chicken and spices, the chicken dish tastes excellent; the beef patty is also freshly baked with tasty filling. As always, I like to add extra curry gravy and ground scotch bonnet pepper to the main dish."
"The Fish Sandwich is the best fish sandwich in the DMV today for the spicy vegetables, properly prepared fish that is fresh, portioned generously, and delicious. As always, the Beef Patty is the best in the DMV, and both dishes are well complimented by the D&G Ting soda. I recommend the fish sandwich without the cheese, btw."

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"

If the food remains this quality the store will always be highly rated. the Efo Riro was really good and had good meat portions. the Fried Plantain was done perfectly. its been a while since I ordered from this store because their food quality was starting to go down.

"This was my first order and everything was perfect. I am Nigerian so a little weary with African restaurants, but I finished my okra soup and pounded yam in about 5 minutes; this was authentic! The okra was delicious (made just like my dad's). Saved the jollof for later, but I took a bite and that was made very good as well. "
"The plaintain was dry and there was only 6 in the entire container, meaning i paid over a dollar for each plaintain. The Tilapia Fresh Fish (1 pc) that i received was better. The stew was slightly a bit too salty but the tilapia was cooked well and was sizable and fit the price."

I was able to save a little more than half a cup of the spicy rice to use for another meal (since it's packed with rice), and I finished the rest of the bowl. The beef suya, suya rice, plantain, corn salsa and the sauce were 10/10!!!! I absolutely have nothing else to say except the fact that I will be ordering this again multiple times during lunch time!"
"The fried plantain was absolutely delicious and the cucumber salad is excellent. 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. Everything was delicious and wonderfully seasoned. My only complaint is that I attempted this time to order the rice noodles again and instead of getting the noodles, I got rice with a double lamb, and not rice noodles with double lamb. But the food was still excellent and I would highly recommend the rice with double lamb."

"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!"

"I put in special accommodations that I wanted white rice I still got rice and peas. The rice and peas seemed a little sweet. And the curry chicken was only 4 pieces one of which was mostly bone no meat on it. The flavor wasn't all that great to me either. I don't think I would order it again."

"Egusi Soup with Chicken was great could have given more Pounded Yam for the extra $3.00 they charge you for it! That's why I didn't give 5 stars but the food was good! "
"They sent 3 small cut pieces of oxtail, which is basically the equivalent to one whole oxtail. A ton of rice was sent, and you'll see I removed the salad that was supposed to be cold, as it was mixed with hot food. I've cooked oxtails, and ordered oxtails for over 20 years, and this is not right!"

"Real African food with Real Pepper! I love it! Their Jollof Rice is perfect and their Pepper Soup is wonderful! Don't change!"
"The food was just ok in my opinion they are pretty generous with their portions.. at least with rice but the meat inside the stew was hard to chew it was really tough! They give you the option of 3 different meats but they give you one small piece of beef that's hard one piece of tripe that's super tough and two tough pieces of chicken and all the pieces are super small. I gave them a chance because they have reasonable prices but the quality is not good. I definitely will not order from them again"

"The best. So delicious. So fresh. My new food addiction. The spicy goat is the best"
"I am sorry to say that I am disappointed in the food that I received from this restaurant, as I had such high expectations from a 4.9 rated establishment. Unfortunately, the portion sizes of both the Beef Suya and the Lamb Dibi were not worth the high prices that we paid. We especially found the Beef Suya way TOO salty and were unable to finish the small portion received. This was definitely not money well spent."

"Unparalleled flavor and service in a very crowded Ethiopian cuisine landscape in Montgomery County."
"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"

Thank you for the very prompt delivery !!"

Some of the fries were limp and not crispy. Others were hard, but still not crispy.
