"got the tacos al Taco Al Pastor / Seasoned Pork taco dinner. flavor was fine, price was good, portions were great. fresh cilantro and onions, but overall a fine taco."
"Tacos themselves were fine, chicken was well seasoned but didn't get any cilantro or onion. The Quesadilla Gigante / Giant Quesadilla was truly god awful. Store-bought quality tortilla and virtually no cheese on it. Tasted bland, stale, and it was very small for the price. Would not order again, looks nothing like the photo"

"That was one of, if not the best Gryo I have ever had. It had a lot of thick strips and chunks of very well cooked Gryo meat. I spent that extra $1.99 for extra meat and hell yeah for $1.99 it was definitely worth it and I'm definitely going to be ordering from here again. Give it a try, trust me you won't be disappointed."
"For what was received it taste good but the portions is a fraction of what is shown/expected. Miss the taste of home but if I'm spending over $20+ on a meal I'd expect more a few pieces of dawali and a tiny piece of zucchini. Needs a little more middle eastern flavoring. Not like moms but until another restaurant opens with authentic food- it'll do."

"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."

"This was my first try with african cuisine, and Im so glad I picked this place. The Spinach & Egusi Stew was special with lots of flavor. I ordered with chicken, I received two large drumsticks, they were juicy, fried (not breaded) and it added such a nice crisp and char to the dish. Also a good amount of spice! but it wasnt too much spice for me and im usually a mild spice person. Would reccommend to anyone curious about egusi"

Portions were generous and the food tasted authentic and homemade. Definitely one of the better African food spots I’ve tried on the road."
"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!!"

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 Combo #4 Vegetarian was delicious, however I overpaid considering that 85% of this dish was rice. There were barely any vegetables... The Peerakai Bolani perhaps didn't travel well as it arrived to me absolutely soggy with grease, but then again all of the food was excessively oily. It also seems I overpaid for this, as they were hardly filled. I had a late order, so I will give them the benefit of the doubt. Great flavors, poor execution. Better luck next time?"

"The Ofe Egusi has sooo much flavor! It was packaged tight so the stew and fufu was still, hot. I always try new African restaurants and ordered extra fufu because its so good. I'll certainly order again!"
"Could've had more egusi. Kinda looks like it's been eaten out of. More Spanish than melon seed. Flavor is nice. Looks a bit rushed & just throw in the bowl! Definitely not worth over $20.50 only 4 small pieces of plantain for the price is ridiculous."

"The Vegetable Samosa were huge and also the spiciest samosa I've ever had. Great flavor but if you are spice-averse be warned. The Mutter Paneer was good, large cubes of paneer. Sauce was slightly sweeter than I'm used to. The Steamed Basmati Rice was good, but might be nicer if it had cumin in it for extra flavor. Would order from here again."
"The food was great, I loved the Chicken Makhani, it was probably one of the best dishes I've ever had, and although the Saffron Rice wasn't to my taste, I could not stop eating it, it was very addictive for some reason, and you get a lot for the price. I will definitely be ordering here again someday. Thank you for the amazing food!"

"ALWAYS EXCELLENT. ALWAYS."
"Nile of Hyde Park misses the mark where it matters most. The chicken shawarma was dry and lifeless, the chips that came with the shawarma were stale, and the bread for the soup arrived still sealed in its plastic packaging. The rice was so over salted, it drowned out every other flavor. The lentil soup was merely passable.
The only redeeming dish was the kifta kabob, which was tender and properly seasoned. One well-executed item couldn’t rescue an otherwise careless meal."

"Chicken was tasty and had a good char. The rice and peas hit the spot. The cabbage was good but could've done with more seasoning. Portion size was excellent. I'd definitely order again. I was excited to try Ting but I didn't get it. My fault for ordering so close to closing I suppose."
"I ordered takeout from Ja’Grill and it was delicious. I was nervous because I have been eating authentic Jamaican food my entire life so I wasn’t sure if it was going to be as good. The food was ready really quick within 10 minutes so I thought it wasn’t going to be good or taste reheated.
However, everything was actually was hot and fresh! I really enjoyed the brown stew chicken. Lots of great flavor. Will definitely be coming back!"

Price is great, meals are affordable and even though portions seem 10% smaller now, it's still worth it for the amount of food you get, and it is always fresh.
SIMPLY THE BEST IN CHICAGO and I've been to many Peruvian places, trust me. This is it. Nobody paid me for this review. Just being honest and recognizing a GREAT place for others to try and enjoy."
