"The steak and plantain taste good. The jollof tastes kinda stale today. But usually, the jollof is good. The restaurant is good. Some items can be hit or miss depending on the day tho."
"Generous portions, but the suya misses the mark on authenticity. While you get a lot of food for the price, the suya unfortunately doesn't taste like real suya. It completely lacks that signature smoky, charred grill flavor, and it doesn't even look like it ever touched a grill. On the bright side, the plantains were a 10/10—perfectly cooked. Just be aware that their stock picture is highly misleading; it looks like you get two side orders, but you actually only get one."

"food was great as always. lumpia arrived still crunchy and warm. my one complaint, is their order prices are significantly more than their in store prices. probably wont order from them again because of that, but if youre craving filipino food and cant get out of the house, kuya ja's is worth it! "
"We love Kuya Ja's! The Pancit is delicious, the lechón belly is so yummy, but no matter what we always get at least three orders of the empanadas and shrimp lumpia (I got tired of fighting over them, lol, there is only 2 of us). 10/10 recommend. "

"The flavor and freshness, as well as great labeling for the Gluten-Free 100% Teff Injera imported from Ethiopia is wonderful!
I also enjoy that I can select my favorite brand or light/dark Teff injera here!
As a wheat-allergic diner, Dama is an amazing place to enjoy Ethiopian cuisine without worrying that someone will make a mistake and I will have a horrible reaction. The staff is very careful about using only Gluten-Free injera in our orders, so we have loved this spot for all the years since we first discovered it. The staff are all warm, friendly, and conscientious people as well."
"The vegetarian platter was soo soo soo delicious
Exactly right amount of spice
Collard greens and beans very very good so were the yellow lentils and the other lentils cabbage
But I loved lentil and collard greens most will definitely order again "
