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."

"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"
"Amazing all around. 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. But it looks like they are back in the game."

I judge Senegalese restaurants by their theibu jenn - which wasn't on the menu - but the Dibi Chicken and Macaroni and Cheese didnt disappoint!

have complained about the small

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."

"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"

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!"

"Absolutely amazing! The koshary was delicious and full of flavor, and the feteer meshaltet was incredible fresh, flaky, and so good! Everything arrived clean and beautifully packaged. You can really tell they care about the quality of their food and presentation. Definitely one of the best Egyptian food experiences I’ve had. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"
"The food wasn’t as good as it usually is. The pasta was chewy, almost like it had been reheated instead of being freshly made. The sauce tasted like it was made from canned tomatoes rather than fresh tomatoes, and the rice wasn’t cooked evenly—some parts were done while others weren’t. Overall, the meal just wasn’t up to the usual standard."

"Veggie combo was delicious and plentiful, enough for two meals. Lots of great variety. Especially love the red lentils. Relatively mild spice but very flavorful. "
"This was my first time trying Ethiopian food. My husband (who had tried it once before) and I got the Meat Sampler #1 with split peas and collard greens (we were able to specify which veggie sides we wanted in the special instructions). Both meats were very tender and everything was perfectly spiced! Had I known that the entree would come wrapped in injera - a spongy bread that's foldable like a tortilla but thicker, and thinner than naan - I wouldn't have paid $2.49 to add on additional injera. We will definitely be ordering from Ahadu again."

"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 "
"I got Suya and jerk chick
The portion is good for the price on the jerk chicken but its literally so salty and spicy not good , i can't eat it
