"I really like it. The steak was seasoned to the gods! I think I would have enjoyed it more if I was closer and ate it hot. The tortillas got soggy by the time, I started eating and just a bit more of a kick okrhe salsa verde . Overall great!"
"Aguachiles Verdes
I have tried the ceviche here and really liked it. I wanted to try the Aguachiles Verdes. I don't know if I'm not used to the taste of it but it taste like the shrimp or something else went bad in the entree. I could not finish the rest of it. There's a horrid plastic like undertone to the taste of the food. Maybe I'll try again in the future."

"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."

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 Stars
Absolutely delicious! I ordered the chicken samosas and chicken tikka biryani, and everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. The spicy green chili sauce paired with the sweet reddish-brown sauce was amazing mixed into the rice. The biryani had plenty of chicken and great spice without being overwhelming.

"I ordered the Lamb Biryani and it was perfection. Flavorful, spiced well, generous portions of lamb layering the bottom of the tray, and enough for three-four meals (for one person). If you've eaten in, you know this place is a hole in the wall attached to a small grocery store. It reminds me of the places in Korea that are open for long hours and cater to cab drivers and folks working night shifts by offering wholesome meals for cheap and without any frills.

"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.

"I ordered two Chicken Shawerma Sandwich سندويش شاورما دجاج wraps in tomato basil flats, a double cheeseburger, and two beef meat pies-- large.
Everything was good, except for the meat pies. They don't look anything like the photo at all and were very light with the beef filling. I took pictures, but there's no accommodation to upload here. They were not bulging "pillows" with an open square in the middle, but were overlapping flaps of dough. No pine nuts, either. I would think that less than half a cup of beef was inside the folded dough, as there was empty space at the folds. It would be charitable to describe them as MEDIUM, not large.
I was very disappointed. I would not order them again.
Would like to get a refund for them, in fact.
The Double Cheeseburger was above average, with a goodly amount of tomato, lettuce, onion, etc. The Chicken Shawerma Sandwich wraps were superb, better than ones I bought from a different restaurant. I will probably order the wraps again.
So, the lack of consistency is the overall problem.

I shared with my family and they loved it as well. "
"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. "

"We've been ordering and visiting Ethiopian Diamond for over 20 years. The food is incredible. While we sometimes order spicier options, our favorites are the 29. Tikel Gomen and the 15. Doro Tibs Alicha (Mild). We love that there are so many vegetable options, and we often order the 39. Veggie Combo so we can get a variety. The food is consistently good and always fresh. The portions are large and great for sharing. Recommend ordering extra Regular Injera Bread. Everything tastes amazing. 10/10 we will certainly order again. Food is priced well, great value."
"My first time trying Ethiopian food, and this was incredible!! The meat on the E2. Meat Sampler (For One) was so tender and heavily spiced, and the Regular Injera Bread is perfect, more tangy than I was expecting but delish. My favorite part of the sampler was actually the greens! So stewed and filling...plus, the portions are generous for the price and the sambusa was SO crispy!
Also... HIGHLY recomment the D3. Chocolate Diamond*. A perfect ending for the meal - the chocolate wasn't sickly sweet, and the fried chips were perfect.
I will definitely be ordering from here again!!"

"If I could write a whole essay about this food I would, I LOVED EVERYTHING! Horchata was sweet and refreshing unlike pop, my favorite out of the 4. Corundas - Queso/Cheese reminded me of tamales, they made it well. If you havent tried the Corundas - Queso/Cheese it kinda taste as if you mixed corn and flour and steamed it. Doesn't sound appealing but its really good. If you've had moi moi before then think of that consistency but corn. The meat in the Carnitas Taco tasted great with all the sauces and toppings on the side. The Chicharron tasted just as I thought, I've seen people hype it up on Tiktok and I was confused because I grew up eating something similar and I didnt really enjoy it. I still don't like Chicharron but I guessed it's a refined taste. Definitely eating here again. Clearly authentic Mexican food."

"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 Asun melted in my mouth, and was delicious......the jollof rice was also amazing, it wasn't hard as a bullet, or lacked flavor/spiciness unlike the others l have eaten from other nigerian restaurants. The Plantains was also ripe an sweet.....though for $5 l expected more than 5 slices of Plantains. overall this meal is a 8/10."
"Honestly I expected more cause what have been hearing but it was not good especially the meat I keep eating funny tasting part most of it was fat and the rice was also not that good
Overall for the price was not it"

"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."

"The "boneless bangus paksiw" (fish stew) that I got in my combo was definitely not boneless, so avoid that if fish bones are a problem for you. That said, the taste was on point! Not too weak, not too strong, but just right. I enjoyed it very much; it just shouldn't have "boneless" in the name. And the portion was generous - I ordered a Combination Plate with the chicken inasal and that fish stew, and I got close to a half chicken and (it looked like) most of the fish other than the head and collar. So that combo plate is an excellent value for the money. I agree with the reviewer who said the garlic rice could use more garlic, but overall this combo plate was a good time, and I made two meals out of it.
The Suman Sa Lihiya could easily be split between either two or four people. Definitely too much for one person to eat in one sitting. It comes with toppings/dippers of a brown sugar based sauce and some shredded coconut. This seemed to be the most "basic" flavor of suman from what I could tell, and I liked it, so I'll be trying other flavors.
The Lumpia Sariwa pictured here was fresh and seemed well executed. It turned out not to be a wow for me, but I could tell it was a matter of "I don't particularly care about this dish" rather than anything wrong.
Overall, as you can see there were some minor imperfections, but overall it was very worth it, and I will be trying more dishes here. This was my first time trying Filipino food, and I'm glad I picked this place. "

First things first, the crunchy pork belly was a game-changer. The moment I took a bite, I was greeted with a satisfying crunch that gave way to tender and succulent meat. The flavor was out of this world, with a perfect balance of savory and slightly sweet notes. Each piece was expertly cooked and seasoned to perfection. It was like a party in my mouth!
Now, let's talk about the tocino sweet pork. This dish was a delightful explosion of flavors. The pork was incredibly tender and had a beautiful caramelized glaze that added a touch of sweetness. The combination of the savory meat, the sticky glaze, and the fluffy rice was pure magic. And let's not forget the perfectly cooked eggs on top, adding a creamy richness to the dish.
The pork belly was beautifully arranged with a garnish of fresh herbs, while the tocino sweet pork was served with a side of sunny side eggs and fresh tomatoes that added a tangy contrast to the sweetness of the meat.
I can't recommend Imas Kitchen enough. If you're a fan of crispy, flavorful pork belly and mouthwatering tocino sweet pork, this is the place for you. It's a culinary adventure that will leave you craving for more."

"I ordered the Tocino breakfast since I forgot to eat this morning and it was the best decision I could have made! The eggs were cooked perfectly and the tocino was delicious. The grits and Lugaw were seasoned so well I could cry, the little lemon in the lugaw was a nice touch. I also had a side of rice chocolate pudding that was also amazing!!!
