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!!!

"the oxtail is so delicious its my staple dish from here they are always full of flavor and very tender i just wish they gave more than 2 or 3 pieces in a portion or that they were bigger but with prices i undrstand i just wish they had an option where u can add on to get extra oxtail and extra gray when ordering with wakyee.
The waakye is very flavorful and not as dry as other restaurants however i have ordered the suya chicken multiple times (4-6 times) and literally each time i recieved it differently..a couple times i was given a completely different protein just with suya powder on it and the other times the chicken was cooked different and they use different ckicken as wel (party wings vs drums. etc) The egusi stew and fufu is delicious, I have also order that dish multiple times and it is ALWAYS PERFECT the blended herbs with the fish is 🔥 always delicious. I want to give it 5 because the flavor is great however the inconsistency can be very disappointing when ordering and not knowing if it will be correct or not."
"Portions are very small but flavor is good and spicy , I ordered the spinach and Egusi with beef , it came with 3 pieces of beef but it seemed like they just put the egusi around the meat definitely need more spinach and egusi for the price !"

"This was my first time trying whipped okra stew. I must say I'm absolutely hooked!! My daughter and I found out about Nigerian Kitchen two years ago while walking through the Uptown area. My daughter tried the egusi and I had the goat pepper soup as well as their pounded yam. We knew then, that we would be "Forever customers". They are consistent in proportion, attention to detail and service. I enjoy the authentic flavor and the love put in every dish!! I thank you for talking with me about my order and making sure it was so delectable!! I ordered fish and goat with my whipped okra. The goat was tender and the fish was cooked just right. This dish has a slight kick, (I love heat) but it goes great with the pounded yam.. Chef's Kiss!! I will be back at the end of the week!!"
"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."

"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. "
"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. "

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.

"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."

"Hot and absolutely delicious! Arrived faster than expected and super fresh. Lentil Soup, Kefta Kabob Sandwich wrap, and Grape Leaves & Falafel Combo were flavorful, healthy, and fresh. "
"I love this restaurant. I have celiac disease & other serious allergies/health conditions so eating out is very difficult for me, if not impossible. I really appreciate all the gluten free options and how they take the time to be careful of cross contamination if needed. Not only is it awesome to be able to eat out without worrying about getting sick, but the food is delicious! My favorite place for sure in the neighborhood. Can't wait to try more dishes, though it's so hard to not get the Moroccan chicken tagine every time because it's so tasty! Thank you."
