This won't be my top pick. The price was like $24.99 for each entree and I feel like you can get other nicer restaurants in the area for better pricing and quality. Coming from one West African to another. The food doesn't have any spice a mild flavor. They give you pepper sauce on the side. The ambiance is very casual!

I was excited to try this place out as I haven't had Senegalese food before!…read more I ordered the okra soup and the ginger juice. The juice was great, the ginger tasted of great quality and was very spicy, but was mellowed by the pineapple. They sell other juices in bottles at the counter as well. The food on the other hand was a little disappointing. The okra soup came with rice, the soup, and a small dish of pepper sauce. The rice was very hard and dry, which made it difficult to chew. The flavor of the soup was okay, but there was a lot of bone fragments and a thick layer of oil on top, which I wasn't a fan of. The pepper sauce was very good though, it was extremely spicy and had an addicting flavor. If they sold a jar of it, I would buy it. If I came again, I would try their other juices, but probably skip the food.

As for the food, we got the Okra Soup with paneer and fufu, Chicken Chu and Jollof. It was my first time trying fufu and I really enjoyed it. I had a recent dental procedure that prevented me from being able to chew so it was honestly the perfect meal for me, as traditionally you're supposed to swallow the fufu. My husbands chicken chu was very flavorful and totally new to us. As for the jollof I felt it was lacking a bit of flavor and the grains of rice were a bit too el dente for my personal liking. I have had jollof at other places that I liked a bit more. Overall great spot! I love trying new West African restaurants and would recommend this to others!

The taste of the food has improved. However, I went two days…read morein a row, just to see if the food would change and it's description. What do I mean by this? First off I've been to numerous ethnic restaurants, that serve goat meat. Everyone from Indian, Jamaican, actually all West Indies, and other Nigerian, restaurants in Randallstown, including Senegalese on York Road. The portion size in this restaurant in comparison to what it cost? Is absolutely ridiculous. I ordered GOAT this past weekend, and I got two big bones with a tiny portion of meat attached to each one, and that was that. Their jollof rice, the vegetable and plantain was as it should be. So the following day, I went back, and I advised them that I got mostly Bone in my meal. Only to be snickered at by the elderly woman, and a gentleman who was picking up food stating , "goat has a lot of bones." All of which I understand clearly because I fix my own goat meat at home, as well as buy a lot of it at other restaurants. However, these other restaurants insure that you get meat, alongside those bones. Essentially what I purchased? Was a vegetarian meal with meat gravy and bones, without the meat. So the next day, I went back and tried to deal with them again (*I must note, that over 7 years ago, when I first tried this food, the jollof rice was much more spicy, however, the meat was much tougher.). So the following day, I got the jollof rice again, only this time I got it with the Beef. Which was the same day, the elderly lady snickered at me with the customer. She stated "Beef doesn't have so many bones. (Of which I know fully), so try that." I went with her recommendation. However, this time, there were two very tiny pieces of beef inside of this food, of which I paid $14 for! The beef that was inside of there was no more than 2" x 2" per piece. I truly believe, that this restaurant, though has been operating here in America for years, is still moving off of what they would get back in the motherland. That doesn't work here in America. For $14? I should've had NO LESS, than four pieces of those little tiny pieces of meat. Then, if we double back to the day before, with the Bones? This restaurant is definitely not worth the money that it charges for what I paid for! Because the GOAT, cost me $16 and some change when it was only worth approximately $10. If you go out Randallstown to the Nigerian restaurants over there off of liberty Road, just Google them, you will see that their portions are massive, and are absolutely worth the price that they charge for them. Or,, go to the Senegalese restaurant on York Road, and their food is absolutely worth every single penny that they charge. The service, atmosphere, ambience, and patronism is absolutely spectacular there. This restaurant? I don't know how they survive, they must have a loyal African following. That is used to such very tiny tiny portions of meat. They give you a lot of rice, and a lot of plantain, but virtually no meat for what they charging for. I hate to give them one star, but they truly, and absolutely deserve one star for that food. I will post pictures of the food, as today is Monday, October 24, 2023, and I still have yet to eat the food. Because I'm actually sick, over paying that money, and getting virtually nothing for it. I truly would like other African-Americans to patronize our African brothers and sisters restaurants, however, I'm not being spoiled, or entitled, when I tell you, you cannot serve a person a bunch of bones, and expect that to be OK. You cannot charge people 16/$14 for food, and virtually getting no meat. If I was a vegetarian? That might be OK. However, I'm a meat eater, and there are definitely other restaurants that will put this one to shame when it comes to the true taste of African/Nigerian/Senegalese food. Because they don't even make their food spicy the way it supposed to be any longer! ** I actually still have the two big bones in the other dish as well. I will attempt to upload that on another post.

After a long day of getting my locs retwisted nearby, I decided to stop here for dinner on my way…read morehome. I didn't realize where the restaurant was located beforehand, so I was a little surprised when I arrived. It's in a very urban area, which may or may not matter depending on your comfort level. There was a decent amount of seating inside if you choose to dine in. The restaurant was okay in terms of cleanliness, but personally, I'd opt for takeout. I originally planned to eat inside but changed my mind once I got there. Unfortunately, the customer service wasn't the best. I wasn't greeted when I walked in, and when I received my order, the takeout container wasn't fully closed and was placed halfway into the bag. I'm not sure if it was just an oversight, but it didn't leave the best first impression. Now, the food, that's where they won me over. Everything was well-seasoned, and the suya had just the right amount of spice. They were out of the vegetable I originally wanted, but I'm actually glad I tried the corn because it was absolutely delicious. And that suya butter sauce? It was the star of the meal! Overall, while the location and customer service weren't my favorite, the food was flavorful enough that I'd come back if I were in the area and craving suya.
