Visited recently for lunch. I must say their Jollof rice was one of the tastiest jollof rices I have ever tasted…my goodness. I was alone in the restaurant, I needed to clear my head and the atmosphere was calm, the decor excellent. The food was yummy including the Turkey wings. The only thing was the waiter didn’t offer me a drink until I asked for it after 10 minutes of waiting. Other than that he was respectful and pleasant. I have already told two of my friends and will definitely be going back for that Jollof.

Every now and then you find a gem! This little Nigerian restaurant in an out of the town area is one such gem! There was a warm welcome, then suggestions of what to order. I went for the Explorer platter, with goat, chicken, jollof, plantain and yam. All beautifully prepared. I had enough to take away for my son to try! The meat is on the bone for extra flavour; the spice was hot, but not vicious. There was a nice atmosphere for a Thursday evening. As a small business, go and support them!

After work, and shopping for essentials, I found myself on a street full of various restaurants and takeaways. I chose this one as I'd never had Nigerian food before and thought I'd give it a try... WOW...I am so glad that I did. Right from the start I told the young lady at the counter that I didn't have a clue what to order and left it up to her. After some simple questions on my favourite things to eat, she suggested the Joloff Rice served with chicken and a portion of plantain. She described the heat but told me it wasn't too much and would be very tasty. When it came, I had to drive home for the next 15 minutes, with the most incredible aroma coming from the bag on the seat next to me. The portion of rice was huge, with a really big chicken thigh and 5 wonderful pieces of plantain. I ate, what I thought was, more than enough and kept the rest for work tomorrow. That great idea lasted for about 45 minutes until I wolfed down the rest of the meal. The taste was incredible...bursting flavours in every mouthful. I am a definite convert now and plantain has a top spot on my future shopping trips. I would happily recommend this restaurant as your first experience of Nigerian food or, if you've known about these flavours for years...go there and see what magic they create...! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED...!

Haven’t tried Nigerian food, and it impressed me with the rich flavour. Friendly staff. Very nice marinated chicken and fried yam and plantains. Would love to try again soon. Highly recommended.

What a treat! My partner and I wanted to try some Nigerian food and this was a superb treat! We were first timers and therefore open to any recommendations. The meat platter we were recommended was just perfect for us. It had all of the staples and option to also choose additional sides (ie try more). Everything on this platter was just *chefs kisses*, and the spice was perfect (for us spice lovers). This place truly is a delight and will definitely be visiting more; not only for the delicious food but also the exceptional service. Thank you

Just ate here tonight. I had the Nigerian fried rice with pepper chicken and n8gerian fanta (of course). The food was delicious, and the chicken fell off the bone. The service was friendly and polite. I will definitely come again if I am in the area
