Came in for the first time yesterday. Wife loved the salmon. Chicken was delicious. Sides, yams, greens & vegetables were great. Will try some other dishes in the future.
I can only say WOW!!! I’ve eaten here a few times now and I’ve never had anything that tasted less than great. So far I’ve tried the ribs, crab cake, beef suya, yams, Mac n cheese, greens, potato salad, crab cake, Jollof rice, and big fish special (different combinations on different days lol). Everything tastes so good! Last thing I had was the ribs, Mac, yams, and greens. It tasted like a homemade thanksgiving plate! Y’all should definitely check it out. Regards to the chef!
I was thrilled to visit this place when I noticed the sign, as I'm a huge fan of jollof and suya. The initial greeting and overall customer service were excellent, which I appreciated. I didn't have to wait long for my food, probably around 5-10 minutes. I ordered the suya and jollof with a side of greens. Unfortunately, the greens were quite disappointing in both taste and value; they were overly sweet and undercooked, giving off a stevia-like flavor. I'm not sure what sweetener they used, but those greens were the least enjoyable part of the meal. The jollof rice was slightly overcooked but showed potential, while the suya was good but not exactly what I had expected. Considering the price, I'm hesitant to give this place another try, as I don't want to risk wasting my money again.
I ate here for the first time and the food was amazing. The ribs had so much flavor along with the fish. You have to come check it out.
I have to agree with the previous review the initial greeting and customer service is excellent! I ordered fish, yams, mac and cheese and crab cake. I want to be honest because I usually read reviews before dining and want to give honest feedback in hopes they will improve. The crab cake is not good at all and I personally think it should be removed from the menu until they can fix the recipe. The yams and mac and cheese both were not good either however, I'm hoping they just didn't have those items freshly made. I will say my husband enjoyed the fish. Bottom line I will give this place another try simply because I want to support small black own businesses.... but will stick to the items cooked on the smoker.
