"This Okra Soup was so so tasty and spicy. Best I have had yet on here. I absolutely enjoyed my meal. It was very good portion of both meat and soup. My Amala also came in great portion. Love the little extras added to my order. Zobo drink was so refreshing and good too. Definitely patronizing this restaurant again to try other items on the menu. "
"
First time ordering the half tray of jollof rice and half tray of turkey, and I must say, it was absolutely delish! The jollof rice was perfectly cooked with just the right balance of spices and flavors. it had that authentic smoky essence (party jollof vibes)
The turkey was tender and seasoned to perfection. The portion size was generous, and it felt like a great value for the price.
Delivery was on time, and the food arrived warm and well-packaged, ensuring everything stayed fresh and intact. I’ll definitely be ordering again! Highly recommended!"

"The Egusi was very tasty. I enjoyed it thoroughly. The fish and turkey was cooked perfectly. I gave 4 stars because it was a bit too much oil in my stew. Other than that everything else was phenomenal. And I enjoyed it. Not too mention the portion size was very good for a reasonable price. Thank you!"

"Equsi Soup pounded yam and 2 meat was perfect, salty, and they read the note that I wanted goat meat. Though, the container spilled a lot of soup. Jollof Rice with Plantain & Chicken was delicious, lots of plantains, and rice flavorful. Hearty and warm, love this place!"
"The egusi tasted as if it had been left over from last night and scraped from the bottom of the pot. There were two dry pieces of chicken and hardly any soup on the plate. I am highly disappointed in the food quality and taste. I expected better. I don't know if it's because I ordered it around noon and they didn't make any fresh soup, but this meal was not satisfactory."

"Bought multiple items in my first order from Posi's kitchen and im so glad I did. Every item was tasty and delicious. Asun was just the right level of spicy and delicious. Fried Rice was good quantity for the price and tasty. Shawarma was rich and tasty. Puff Puff and Meat Pie were the best I have had in a while. Mint Hibiscus Lemonade was the best tasting Zobo I have had from any African restaurants. The Single Big Birdie P was equally delicious. I literally enjoyed all my order. I definitely recommend this restaurant for that rich, ultimate Naija meal experience!"
"Like many, I have been craving egusi soup, okra soup, and fufu because of social media. I am from Oregon so we dont have a diverse cuisine and I was really excited about being in a city that did!
I ordered the okra and egusi soups with goat, along with the sides of pounded yam. I ordered way too much food for just me, but i couldnt decide! Overall, I really enjoyed it. My main complaint is that the goat was very dry. Not the end of the world, but it made me wish I had not gotten any protein because the soups were good on their own and ended up picking around the meat. I loved the texture of the pounded yam, its exactly what I hoped it would be. The serving sizes were also good, if you are like me and want to try multiple things, you could definitely share.
If you like spicy I would order it extra spicy, it needed heat (for me). They did give me a little side of a chili sauce though, which I used all of. "

"The absolute best Nigerian food in Maryland!!! Give them a try and you wont be disappointed. The best Egusi and Fufu / Poundo ive ever had!! The jollof rice is amazing!! Seafood Okro is so fresh and full of flavor!! All of the meat was so tender. Catfish Pepper Soup is like a taste of lagos on your table! Hands down the best ! True 9ja taste!!! "
"I paid 24 dollars for these kids menu portions. Great tasting food but you won't win any new customers serving these small portions. Clearly I'm not first to say this in the comments. It's actually extortion. I suggest going to the Senegalese joint on York Rd to see how they give it up."

Oh, we are definitely going to order from Pablano's again. And before I forget it was so much food we're going to save for lunch tomorrow."
"I was excited to try this place, but was let down. The burrito is massive, but came not wrapped up and leaking everywhere. The veggies in the burrito were pretty raw, and the flavor kind of took over everything else instead of adding to it. The chips are bland and the queso just tastes like onion, nothing else. Probably wont return. "

The chicken was well seasoned. Very delicious, juicy, and tender. We also got the pinto beans which were outstanding. The fried rice was pretty decent as well but I might opt for plantains next time. As for the sauces, the yellow is the rockstar and the green was a nicely spicy and herbaceous addition. We will be ordering from here again. Price was great as well. Highly recommend."

The veggies were fresh, well seasoned, and were the best veggies i have ever had from delivery restaurants. The chicken was moist and seasoned just right. My Hubby’s meal was just as delicious to him. He got chicken with mashed potatoes and green beans. His potatoes and green beans were very tasty too. He is hard to please when it comes to veggies, because his Mom was an excellent cook. He judges all food by hers, and he raved about how good the mashed potatoes tasted. We will make this restaurant one of our regular go tos!"
"First and last. Rice is cold and hard. Fried yuca soggy. The large salad is the same size of the small plantains and in only green decayed lettuce squeezed inside the container. Poor quality food. I do not recommend this store."

"I ordered from Pappas on Doordash again! The Pappas Club and Crab Cake Entrees was scrumptiously delicious. The Pappas Club is my new go to for a club sandwich. My sister got the Crab Cake Entrees the last time, but she had the small crabcake. This time she got the medium crab cake because it's all lump crab meat.

"You only get 4 stalks of Grilled Asparagus which was a huge dis and the only reason I did not give 5 stars. It was well cooked, actual grill marks very delicious. A: Crab Dip was perfect and the Sauteed Spinach had the right amount of garlic. Very good!!"
"The portion of Fettucine Alfredo Side was huge. It was a regular serving which was cool and it was good.. the stuffed Stuffed A: Stuffed Mushroom Caps on the other hand are usually a favorite of mine but today they tasted off, no lemon butter sauce on top either which was disappointing. Only got 2 mushrooms and they were flat and smooshed. The other two were just crab balls no mushrooms under. They used to be around $20 dollars as well now they are $26 which wasn't worth it today. "

"Dodah’s offers a flavorful take on vegan cuisine, delivering a variety of plant-based alternatives to classic comfort foods. The seasoning and textures of the vegan ribs and drummies were okay. I have ordered them on two different days over the spring break and I could tell that the drummies weren't cooked fresh. The collard greens had a rich, savory taste especially when you add the hot sauce to them. However, the presentation of the meal could use some refinement. The juices from the collard greens spilled over onto the other items, affecting the balance of flavors, saturating the drummies, and overall appeal of the dish. A little more attention to plating and separation would elevate the dining experience. That said, if you're looking for hearty, soulful vegan eats, Dodah’s can still deliver..."

"Unfortunately this was underwhelming compared to the last time I ordered. The bbq wings were half pieces with sauce on the side I feel robbed because it says 12 wings. The fries were extremely overcooked and soggy I don't even know how that happens. Also for the portion sizes these prices are way off. Soda was out of stock? The ocean paella was extremely dry. Just disappointed because we were really hungry and just knew the food was going to be great. The delivery driver was exceptional. "

The pork dumplings looked nice, exactly as pictured, and were delicious. They're pretty dense and filling so I'd probably only order one appetizer next time. Veggie spring rolls were nice and crisp. And the tofu green curry was good, tho not as spicy as the ka pow despite both being ordered hot. Overall it was great and I'd order again. "
