"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. "

"The food was okay... the Fried Red Snapper w/ Veggies was much smaller than expected & the "veggies" that came with the fish was just raw onions & green peppers. It wasn't worth $20.

"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.

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."

"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"

"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 food was SOOOOO good! 😩🔥 I’m so happy there’s finally a Haitian spot in town with food that actually tastes like home. 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! 🇭🇹🔥🤤"

"Quick order completion and delivery. Not many local Ethiopian spots offer meat & veggie combination platter (for delivery) and this is perfect when you're craving a bit of everything. The price & portion size of the Combination Platter 1 match with consideration of current food prices. Nothing was too spicy (could have been more but I get that would take it out of a general standard) or bland. Warmth @ arrival was decent for food variety. Would order again!"
"I love their dullet so much!!! The spices the portion and the kibe it just so PERFECT! but the other day I ordered Doro Wot wet and it didn't taste good. I wouldn't order it again. It was too spicy and didn't have a true doro wet taste. Almost no chicken on it. I will just continue ordering Dulet from this store. "

"Way too much plantains and barely any meat. I ordered the 2 meat Chicken Bandera and Goat Bandera: chicken and goat. They offered 1 chicken thigh and 2 very small pieces of meat. But I was charged for extra meat. If I hadn't of paid extra they would have given me one piece of chicken. . So they put extra plantains in my plantain so I would think it's chicken.
They're not providing as much as they used to."
