This is a small suburban hole in the wall type of restaurant. Jamaican Food in the burbs. It's a…read moresimple place with Jamaican colors and a few cool art pieces. They have a television and it's clean. The owners give it a Jamaican feel and vibe. I believe it's a couple that owns it. The man working the counter was pleasant. The food comes out hot and promptly. So no issues with service. However, the prices inside and online don't match. I need an updated menu to make sure that I am paying the correct price. As far as the food it was decent. I really liked some items and others were just ok. The Jerk Shrimp is a winner. The shrimp are seasoned with some love. The flavor is amazing with the sauce and the vegetables are delicious. 4 STARS The cabbage is lacking in taste. I expected it to be more flavorful. It could have been a bit softer too. 2 STARS The oxtails were tender, but again lacked in flavor and seasoning. 3 STARS The rice was cooked perfectly. 4 STARS The plantains weren't good. Something was missing. I was disappointed with them. 2 STARS The portion size is good for the price. I felt they gave me a fair amount of food. It's hard for me to rate them. I love supporting small businesses. However, I have definitely had better Jamaican food in the USA. I also have been to Jamaica and loved the food. I would definitely recommend the Jerk Shrimp. I would return for this and the rice only. Overall I would give it a 3.5 STARS. It was cool to try a new place while visiting home. I always enjoy having a new experience. I'm not brave enough to try the cow foot on the menu. I do wish them success.

I've been to the food truck 3 or so times and have gotten fufu, egusi soup with goat, puff puff,…read moreand iced Zobo. The fufu was a good consistency wrapped in cling wrap so it doesn't stick to the packaging and can be eaten fully. The egusi is rich and flavorful; I definitely wish there was more of a spice to it but I have only ever had egusi from here so I don't know if culturally, it is meant to have more spice than that. Regardless, it's very tasty and I usually get a decent amount of goat in there. The puff puff is always delightfully soft and the perfect amount of sweetness to end my meal. The Zobo tea is very much not for me, the cinnamon along with ginger and hibiscus is something my tongue didn't like, but that's just a taste preference thing, I believe it was made well. As far as service, the lady who takes my order is always very kind and helpful. I appreciate her a lot. Her patience, especially when I first ordered, was greatly appreciated. This may be dramatic, but I found out later in life that I'm Nigerian and didn't get to enjoy my culture so she helped me pick the right things and it was a great encouragement to me. The chef is kind as well but we haven't had many interactions. As far as ambiance, I always get it next to the A2 farmers market which I love a lot because I get to walk around! Overall, I really love fork in Nigeria. My only cons are that it's a little expensive (one meal usually costs me $25-$30 for one person) and the wait can occasionally be a little longer but I don't mind it. Also, one time I got there right when they said they were going to open and they were an hour late. Other than that I've had amazing experiences here and can't wait to have more.

Five stars for the service. Three for the food. I didn't use atmosphere in the star rating because…read morewe did take out. However, I will talk about it. The set up is pretty simple. You order and pay for your food. Then wait at a table to dine in or wait to carry out. My husband and I carried out. It was late at night and the time it took for our food to be made was very fast. There was a table of 2 in the dining room. The dining room looked a lot like a typical Subway restaurant dining room with the particle board booths. What I saw of the place looked clean. The service impressed me. I'd give it 6 stars if I could. We ordered Pad Thai and crab ragoon. My husband and I both enjoy spicy dishes so we were excited to go to a place where the reviews warned that they took spice seriously. The woman who took our order explained the spice levels. Warned us that their mild was pretty spicy. We explained that we normally order extra spicy at other restaurants. She helped us pick the spice level of medium. In the most polite way possible, refused to let us go beyond that level. (I'm glad she did). While we waited for our order, the cook came out and verified that we for sure wanted medium. After some convincing, he went back and made it for us. I was very impressed with the spice verification process. I know they were doing a cya but the way they handled it was polite and professional and made me feel cared for. As for the food itself, it was fresh looking and tasting. The crab ragoon was pretty good. Less breading and more filling than your typical order elsewhere. The dipping sauce that went with it was pretty unique also. I'd order that again. The reason I gave three stars for the food was the Pad Thai. It was spicy. The exact level I expected and craved. However, I could not taste much else. It was not the Pad Thai flavor I am used to. This version tasted oily and spicy and that is it. The noodles were the only thing I could taste. I guess in summary, the sauce needed more flavor. I'll be back. Their menu had some pretty interesting items on it.

We ordered on the tablet they have at the front counter and sat down to wait for the food to be delivered to our table. They did have happy hour going, but I don't recommend it. The drinks weren't good honestly. Not sure what was being mixed but the liquor didn't taste right. We both had the Classic Village Meal (Jerk Chicken, jollof rice, and plantains). It was good food. I loved how the jollof rice and plantains were well prepared and hot. The jerk chicken wasn't served as hot as the rice and plantains so I think they had a timing issue in the back, so that was disappointing. There is a lot of food, so we were able to take home half and have it for breakfast the next morning. We also tried to the jerk taco and it was good and hot, but awkward to eat because there so much on top and it was just falling off as I was trying to pick it up and take a bite.

We have familiarity with senegalese food, and have even made yassa and maffe at home before, but could not do any justice to the food here. Our server was friendly and helpful. We ordered yassa with jollof rice, maffe, and a sorrel drink, a baobob drink, and the orange ginger. We got some fataya as well. The fataya came out, red with palm oil and extra crispy, with a tomato/chili sauce that had a depth of flavor I couldn't describe. Rich, deep, earthy, but still fresh tasting, a nice contrast to the fish (tuna? tilapia?) in the fataya. The drinks are sweet, but delicious - the baobob is almost a smoothie, and the sorrel is close o a hibiscus with less bitterness. The orange ginger is also very sweet but with a great ginger kick. I did order the lamb yassa but was brought the chicken yassa. I was very hungry so I didn't ask to change it - and it looked delicious - and I am happy they gave me the chicken. Crispy on the outside, seasoned well throughout, and totally juicy. The onion sauce on the side adds a punch of umami, and the well-seasoned jollof rice as a nice medium for everything. I couldn't finish it all and ate it for lunch the next day, where it heated up beautifully and remained tasty and juicy. The maffe is very rich - lots of palm oil - we got it wih chicken. The chicken was juicy, the vegetables in there were pleasant and added to the overall flavor. I'd order it again but definitely to share, it fills you up quickly. I'm now recommending this place to everyone because I can't get over how good it was. I'm looking forward to trying the rest of the menu!
