This was our first time here and they were very patient and accommodating to us. They explained all their popular items, went over their favorites, and even gave us samples of their popular stew items. We got the following: A seafood empanada A beef empanada Red stew with lamb and jollof rice Okra stew with chicken and fufu Hibiscus juice Baobab juice Everything came out to around $82, which I feel is very fair since we brought home a good amount of leftovers too. The restaurant is spotless. They have a cute bar area. They play music videos on the TV and it's been a great vibe. They have live music on some nights too. We're already planning our next visit, hoping to try the grilled meats or their red snapper next time!

We started with the black eyed pea fritters which were so soft inside and crispy on the outside. The black eyed pea dipping sauce was spicy but flavorful. The peanut butter stew was the star. Super flavorful and comforting. The Chicken was well seasoned and tender. The egusi was new to us. It has a nutty flavor and is sort of the texture of a tofu scramble. It was very spicy. Overall great time and food! We will be back.

There was one other party eating and us, with on server. Our was friendly and introduced us to their menu. We ordered the foufou and fish fataya. Some menu items were sold out. We waited quite longer than expected. The fataya tasted delicious and the dipping it came with. The foufou tasted fine but the lamb pieces felt a bit tough to eat and not much meat in them. Service could have been better with getting our food, utensils, and bill sooner. Hopefully we have a better experience next time.

The service was amazing when we were ordering in the restaurant and I would love to dine inside in the future. We ordered the tilapia and the oxtail stew. Both were really good, but the fish was amazing. The restaurant was very decently sized and I saw that sometimes they have live music. This is absolutely an amazing place to check out if you want to try a new cuisine and deserves every five star rating they've gotten.

I had so much anxiety cause ive never even ordered Nigerian food and didnt know where to start and im so happy I was there to receive service from David. He was patient and kind while guiding me through how to order. he was missing some things like chicken but he was open and honest about that and about the menu prices now being different which is a big complaint i saw in the negative reviews. he showed me what everything i ordered would cost and apologized for the error. I honestly didnt mind and the prices were super fair especially for the serving size. he asked what heat level i wanted from 1-10 and i said 5 and he warned me 5 was probably a 8-9 in american food. which made me laugh and i changed it to a 3 to be safe and fair warning it was still spicy(not too bad) ! but to say it was absolutely delicious is an understatement! the food did take about 20 minutes to prepare and its made fresh and i mean FRESH that fufu was super hot. my mom loved the jollof rice and i loved the egusi soup. 10/10 i would come again and try more things maybe a little less spicy though! i wish i took photos of the food but we were hungry and had such great comfort food. cant wait to go back!

I stumbled upon this cozy little spot and it turned out to be delicious.From the moment I walked in, I was greeted like an old friend, who has this infectious smile that could melt butter.The staff here isn't "friendly", they're the kind of warm, genuine folks who make you feel like family crashing a Sunday dinner. Now, the food... chef's kiss times infinity, it was Divine. I keep my choice very simple 1/2 veggie and 1/2 meat combo In and it was delicious!!! Prices are fair and service was quick. If you're craving food that's not just excellent but soul-satisfying, and service that restores your faith in humanity, run (don't walk) to Lucys Ethiopian Food. Every time I come to Las Vegas, I'll be sure to come. I can't wait to bring the whole family next time!

The portion is huge so be prepared to share and still have leftovers to take home. My favorites were the beef with onions and meat in green sauce. For veggies, I loved the greens and steamed spinach. Simple and clean to enjoy between the other flavors on the plate. I do wish the yellow and green lentils had more spices/ seasoning since they were a little bland. Overall a great platter though. The lentil samosa is also delish!

As an Africa-born person, I was pleasantly surprised at the precision of Ethiopian spices in the Berbere and the preparation of the collard greens. It was really a trip back to Mama Afrika. We ordered the Lamb Gursha and it did not disappoint. Hours later, I'm dreaming of that thick, luscious, viscous gravy, tingling on my palate. SO INCREDIBLY GOOD. The teff-flour injera was soft, spongy and melted in the mouth. The gomen (collard greens): served hot in a stone bowl was perfectly seasoned and not overcooked (I detest overcooked collards). Now to the lamb: it was melt in your mouth, fall off the bone tender. It was encased in the rich, viscous berbere "gravy". Oh my! They had incense burning, an Ethiopian show on TV with spiritual music. This is an absolute gem of a place. Exceptional service. SPOTLESS restroom, gleaming kitchen. Highly, HIGHLY recommended.

I looked over the menu and decided I wanted to play it safe... basically I chickened out on my original choice lol. I went with the whole catfish that comes with a stew and I also got Jollof rice. The owner of the restaurant provided exceptional customer service and we had small talk with him. I always prefer supporting small businesses and this is a prime example of why. The food comes at and the catfish with the stew was out of this world so flavorful and cooked to perfection. The Jollof rice was as equally delicious. Next time I am in Vegas I am going to have to go ahead and order the Ugusi soup and Fufu. There is plenty of seating however it is a little stuffy inside, but the owner busted out an industrial size fan which cooled us down in no time.
