The jollof was spicy (in a good way!) but a bit flavorless, and the chicken was pretty dry. The soups were also on the bland side for me. That said, everyone's taste is different -- just because it wasn't for me doesn't mean others won't enjoy it. The staff was friendly, and I'm still glad I gave it a try. I'll definitely keep exploring more African/Caribbean spots!

The beef was a tasty addition to the egusi adding more flavor and protein. The fufu was nice and warm and had a great texture. I know we will be back to try other items. Food aside, I would like to see some improvements to the seating and decor. It was giving pizzeria when I was hoping for more cultural vibes.

When I arrived home, I tried it and it was everything I expected and wanted based on what the previously read reviews. My okra soup which is enough for two meals was everything! Omalicha Kitchen did not disappoint. Service: I walked in and was immediately greeted, not with a smile but attentively. The lady was thorough and made sure that I was ordering exactly what I wanted. She made suggestions and touched on everything. I was quite pleased with the quality customer service I received. Ambiance: The restaurant was pristine outside and inside. Every empty table and floor was clean and chairs well placed. There was nothing that made me think that I shouldn't return to this establishment. In the contrary, I will be back and I recommend anyone in search of delicious West African food to visit Omalicha Kitchen.

I canNOT believe what I have been missing!!! I tried the egusi soup with pounded yam and was literally floored by how good it was. I brought some home for my wife and kids and they all loved it. I've been back several times since. Unfortunately I NEVER see anyone in there so I hope they are getting enough service to stick around. I've had their jerk wings as well as their jollif rice and all of it is amazing. The restaurant itself is simple and the staff friendly.

I ordered the egusi soup & okra soup with yam fufu and corn fufu. Very very flavorful! The egusi soup with yam fufu was my favorite. However, when I left the soups sitting out for my partner to try after coming home from work, they both somehow became a bit salty? And he wasn't able to enjoy it like how I did when it was fresh. There's not a lot of African restaurants in Cypress, but this place is definitely worth a try. Still can't get over the texture of fufu! It's so pleasant with the soups.

I can't believe I waited so long to try the GOLDEN BOWL. This is one of the best bites to enter my mouth in a long time. ChopnBlok is nestled away inside of POST Houston. Their menu is quaint, and in fact, the famous Golden Bowl was not visible on the menu. Fortunately, the had a few signature dishes on display - the Golden Bowl was one of them. The Golden Bowl is one of the most complex and well balanced dishes I've ever had. Sweet, salty, smoky, spicy, and soulful, this dish is an explosion for flavors that will have your tongue tingling. The succulent grilled chicken, fluffy jollof jambalaya, stewed plantain and crunchy black eyed peas work together to create an unbelievable mix of textures that keep you excited for the next bite... and the next... and then suddenly it's gone. My only regret was sharing the bowl with my husband. I could probably eat two orders in one sitting. If you haven't had a Golden Bowl, please do your tastebuds a favor and get yourself over to ChopnBlok.

When I woke up this morning and checked DoorDash it said that the order was picked up at 7:37pm and my card was charged $60, which is honestly too much for 2 soups and 2 appetizers. Also on top of that the location was sketchy, had no visible signage, and was dirty. Would not recommend this place at all if I could give negative stars I would.

"If we will not eat it we will not sell it." -Marvin Amadi (Owner)…read more So my husband told me that we needed to try out Naija Eatery because he had their Pepper Soup and LOVED it. We decided to go after church service. This place right next to an African food store. When we walked it the place was very intimate and had the really gooood Afro beats playing on the big screen TVs. IB the waitress/ hostess greeted us and allowed us to pick Our seats. My advice: Don't look at menus, but ask IB instead. It pretty much worked like this: We: 1. Picked our rice (plantains are included as a side) 2. Pick meat (goat, fish, chicken, or beef) 3. Order the moi moi (a must have if you are new to Nigerian Cuisine) The menu had a wide variety of soups and stews, but I'm not much of a menu reader. I usually go with what the waitress or waiter recommends. I had the Jallof rice with plantains, goat, and moi moi. Now, I am an American that knows and loves spicy food. THIS Nigerian food is perfection.... Not too spicy as some Nigerian restaurants can be. The best thing is, if you want it spicy, the chef will bring it to the back and add the spices to your liking. I had the pleasure of speaking with the Chef. Her name is Auntie Christy. She recommended (for people that are really looking for a taste of Nigeria) : Fisherman's soup! She said that it has a lot of ingredients from the Motherland and is one of her most exquisite dishes. I brought some home to my husband and he LOVED IT! as did me and Our children She did NOT disappoint! I also had the pleasure of speaking with the Owner whose name is Marvin and he mentioned how good The Egusi and Ogbono soups are when mixed together. I will be sure to try that next time we go! Did I mention that I brought my elders who are from Nigeria (Edo State) and they said that the food "Tastes like HOME". This is the place to go if you are looking for an Authentic taste of Nigerian Cuisine!

I saw that they had a lot of good reviews on Google so I figured I'd try them out. And I am so happy I did. I ordered some egusi stew with mixed meats (which does not include pork - Thank God). And I had it with pounded yam. It cost about $19 I think, which when ordering I thought was a bit much, but I was still anxious to try them out. When they brought the food, I then saw why the price was what it was. They brought 3 containers (1 for the egusi, 1 for the meats and 1 for the pounded yam). It was A LOT of food! So $19 actually wasn't bad. And what's more is it ended up being enough food for about 3 meals!!! Anyway, the taste was phenomenal!!! It was sooooo good that I've been bragging about this place ever since! The restaurant itself is very beautifully and tastefully laid out. The service was great! Once you order, you are able to get a text message when your food is ready. Which I really liked because I wanted to check out the other stores next to it while waiting. They are also playing good Afrobeats music inside, so you are nice and relaxed while enjoying your food, or the wait for your food to go. This is my new staple spot for naija food!!! Chefs kiss

I have finally tried fufu... and it's a delightful experience! I got the assorted meats (tripe, cow…read morehoof, beef) with Egusi Soup and a side of fufu. The meat with sauce was really delightfully salty and complemented the neutral fufu. Much of the meat is collagen so I'm not sure if I would get it again though. The egusi was right in the middle in terms of spice and flavor and also very beginner friendly! This thing can feed like 3 people because fufu is so filling. For the appetizer we also tried a beef pie! Pretty good, nothing super outstanding but I liked it :) Ola our server was happy to tell us all our options and even gave us free Nigerian bread with Nigerian butter on the house! I'm not sure what was different about it but it smelled very sweet and had the similar texture to milk bread. Also being two Asian females apparently attracted some attention because gentlemen from a different table tried to pay for our drinks and they were very curious where we were from. This has no bearing on the establishment I just wanted to mention it cuz it was so startling. No worries though because we gracefully (?) fended off their advancements. Definitely felt welcomed here though haha.
