"The food is really good. Jollof rice and ayamashe is the best. It’s also affordable but the delivery fee is quite expensive. It’s better to order pick up"
"Tasty jollof that would actually fill you. I appreciate the food size and the bundle with 3 proteins. I would however appreciate it if things are super specific. I ordered Suya but there was no way to know the size of what I'm expecting. I would have ordered more if I knew it was just one stick ."

"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 !"

"Fantastic food. Some details: Egusi Soup Egusi is 95% Egusi 5% "vegetable"(greens). Layered, rich seasoning ( a little light on salt/Maggi). Comes with 2 small pieces of protein, wonderfully seasoned. It was a bit heavy on the oil though. Eba seemed to be " Igbo gari", it was yellow. Good portion size.
Goat meat cut was one smaller really delicious piece of meat.
Jollof Rice was good. Decent seasoning, not oily at all. rich tomato/pepper.
Random. I got a lot of the fried fish. It may have been whiting. It was a really soft fry, so no crunch or anything. But, still really yummy."
"I wanted to get some smaller in portion items to taste how well the food is, well the Mini jollof bowl did not include any grill chicken as posted, and the rice was ok. I order a Fish cut and Beef cut and they literally gave me a tiny piece worth a dollar not $3.20 of each and the beef was tough and overcooked but the droplet of fish was pretty good."

"Jollof rice is like Spanish rice...delicious. The beef cubes are like goat curry from Indian restaurants but I don't have to worry about bone shards and the sauce is a lovely and strong tomato sauce. I'm told it should only be served with white rice but hell they go together well!"
"The egusi and efo riro was dry. Barely any oil in the soup. Not very spicy either. I've tried egusi & efo riro from houston, lauderdale, miami & New York so im very accustomed to the dish. This taste really bland. "

"The jollof combo is perfect! The rice is flavorful, spicy, and has that perfect level of smokiness. The suya is well-seasoned and the portion size was really good. Everything I've ordered from here has tasted really fresh, spicy, and delicious. I'd gladly recommend this place to friends and family! Be warned though, the food is genuinely spicy (by Yoruba man standards)"
"I’ve been a regular here for a while, and they continue to exceed my expectations every single time. On my recent order, they surprised me by adding their new signature dish (Goat meat pepper soup) for me to try — completely complimentary. That thoughtful gesture truly shows how much they value their customers.
Not only was it generous, but the new dish was absolutely delicious and beautifully prepared. The quality, consistency, and attention to detail are why I keep coming back.
It’s rare to find a place that combines great food with genuine hospitality, but they do it effortlessly. Highly recommend — and I’ll definitely be ordering that new signature dish again!"

"Came in a super small 4 oz container for $25. And did not include my beverage. Items are always missing or the soup is filled with bones, fat or the heart, liver and other organs. There’s literally no meat in this pepper soup.
Pounded yam never fresh always had bits of old, lumpy, hard recycled yam they threw in a new batch. Extremely disappointing. "

"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. "

"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."
