Best KPortal Reviews

Jollof rice: It was okay if you were going to someone’s house to eat, but not restaurant-worthy tbh.
Fried rice: It was terrible. It tasted like a bunch of village spices and crayfish were dumped inside. Not rich at all, which sucks because that is my favorite food.
Nkwobi: Bad. No cow feet at all, small portion, and just full of palm oil. Not appetizing at all.
Edikaikan: It was okay.
Pepper soup: It was okay.
Suya: Costs $5 per small stick with stale beef and flavorless spice, and a bunch of onions.
Oh, to top it off, I ordered a meat pie (my favorite snack) Please, why did it come as a store-bought Jamaican beef patty? For $4, I could’ve gone to La Fruteria to buy it cheaper if I wanted a beef patty. And if you don’t have meat pie, why not tell the customer instead of giving me a substitute I most likely would have declined. And I almost ordered 4 of them. Thank goodness I didn’t
We spent over $120 for that trash. We only ate the rice and suya there and ordered the rest to go so we didn’t know everything was just going be piss us off. I hate to leave a bad review but the meatpie did it for me. I can’t believe I ordered Nigerian Meatpie and got Jamaican Beef Patty. Nigerians and audacity sha.
Anyway, PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR and don’t waste your time here. Or at the very least check your food before you leave, before you goan pay for rubbish.
Theee absolute best African food ever, my daughter and I buy food here so often!!! This is our favorite spot (simply a treat for us) the people at the restaurant are extremely nice. I love this restaurant 10/10 for sure!!! We get the egusi soup (vegetarian) and Fufu…
This has to be a new owner cuz the food was delicious but now it's disgusting, ur not supposed to cook fish in the same pot as chicken I don't eat fish and it makes me sick. The man hung up on me and told me to go to grub hub for my money smh. This place needs to be CLOSED DOWN
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! THE WORST AFRICAN FOOD I'VE EVER TASTED. I ordered the pepper soup and goat meat. The soup was tasteless and a small portion. The goat meat didn't have any MEAT! I paid $30 for this mess! I don't understand how this restaurant is still open!
Great service and good food. The owner/manager was very accommodating and answered many questions about Nigerian food and culture. Turns out many foods I thought were Caribbean actually originated in Africa. I look forward to my next visit to try more things on the menu.
This is not even Nigerian food. The food was absolutely disgusting and not edible. No flavor at all. Never coming back here, I advise no one to go here. Not authentic.
Both meals I ordered as carry-out were bad. My mistake was not checking before leaving the restaurant as I was in a hurry. I ordered goat meat pepper soup but got assorted (beef, tripe, liver), didn’t even taste like pepper soup more like beef stock. Also ordered Nkwobi but received trash as it did not contain cow leg but cow skin and taste was horrible. It’s like the cow skin was boiled until tender, then sautéed in palm oil with some sort of vegetable that gave it a bitter taste (see attached). Got charged at higher price than what’s listed on the menu. ORDER AT YOUR OWN RISK
2 stars because I had nice size fish , but fish did not taste fresh . Very small amount of egusi & efo for 20$ , fufu was very lumpy not fully cooked had some black stuff on it was not happy
