Electric Spaghetti savory option

I ordered the Electric spaghetti with Montebello mushrooms, savory option. Cucumber diced green onions red bell peppers added a nice touch. The sauce is amazing and the portion size is quite large enough for 2 people imo Great Vegan meal here.

Mac Wings w/ Cucumbers Ogbono Soup

This is my first time trying African cuisine and let me tell y'all: Good experience, Great food. My most favorite item from their menu was their Mac wings w/ Cucumers. I got Agave syrup with it. They're seasoned well. Its pretty healthy, and delicious. - 9/10 The Ogbono soup, delicious. Has spicy kick into it. Its almost has a herbaly gravy taste, comes with mushrooms for protein. Its hard to explain, but I like it. Comes with Fufu, a type of starchy/sticky dough, cooked already. I got Oat Fufu. Pinch a generous amount of Fufu by hand, dip and slide in the sauce and enjoy. My first time trying Fufu. It tastes like Oaty Sticky Rice. It easily gets you filled, so I suggest sharing. Pretty interesting texture and taste. - 8/10

Food was so flavorful and service was great! Will definitely be back! Make sure to call or place your order online.

Drop everything and go eat at Nkwagala Concept! OK but seriously, plant eaters, meat eaters, everyone.... this is some of the best food I've had in my whole life! The flavors are mind-blowing. Like a homemade meal and the best restaurant food come together. I drove 30 mins to get it because sadly I do not live close. My faves: James Brown Salad and the Egusi! I actually ordered extra and froze it Everything is delicious and I can't believe we don't have more amazing food like this. I've attached a bunch of photos, they are the JB salad, the Egusi, the Biko Soup and the Katogo (). My preference is to eat it with rice instead of the fufu, but I know many people enjoy the fufu, I just find the flavors are yummier with rice (or just alone). Please support this restaurant instead of all those chains, one because they deserve it! and two so I can keep eating here! Thanks SO much Nkwagala, I'll be back sooooon.

So I ordered here after sun went down on the sabbath and wanting a large vegan family style meal that wasn't your typical unhealthy vegan fast food I was pleasantly surprised when I found there was a relatively new unique restaurant in my area with a alkaline based menu immediately I was excited about trying something different but was a bit intimidated by the menu and the names so I gave them a call and was greeted by a women who was beyond helpful and patient and clearly passionate about the offerings and walked me through a few highly recommended dishes and even a shake that I didn't get a chance to picture below. I followed the recommendations and placed my order, she assured me that they make everything fresh so it'd take around 35/40 minutes which was perfectly reasonable when I arrived the location is pickup only and can be a bit confusing as you arrive at the Wilshire Royal in dtla area across from wispa if you were looking for a walk-in establishment with a sit down ambience, but there is a sign outside that signifies you are indeed in the correct place you just call and someone brings the order to your car simple enough and like many new pop up restaurants around the city these days. They also offer delivery through Uber eats and door dash which is great for the night in. Now when I get the order i immediately had an eruptions of smells and flavors filling my car the whole ride back home causing my mouth to water and my imagination went wild thinking of what the dish's were gonna taste like boy was i surprised at how much flavor and taste and the new textures I was In for given I never had swallow foods before and my first instinct is to chew but once I got used to the fufu and combining them with the okra soup it was second nature everything was delicious and perfectly seasoned with love and care you can really tell they make all fresh from the cutting of the mushrooms and the way you can pick which oil you'd like them to use and the breading style you choose everything seems tailored to the customers preferences which leaves you feeling special and well taken care of as if someone in your own family cooked the meal for you! Well done! I'm glad I took a chance and checked this place out and I will be going back again to try a few other dishes and get more of that matooke with onion gravy! My mouth is watering as I type luckily there's leftovers for my lunch today! Try it take a chance call with your questions they take care of you here fasho.

See all

Every dish was absolutely delicious and plated with stunning presentation. Chef Charlie even provided printed menus for each of us, adding such a thoughtful touch. Beyond the food, he was warm, conversational, and engaging--clearly putting intention and heart into every detail. We would definitely use his services again and recommend him without hesitation.

Chef Peter is the real deal. I contacted him to cater our firm's holiday party this year. From…read morefirst contact to the two months leading up to the event, he was responsive and kind. He worked with me on a menu and he delivered my vision. Even with extreme circumstances (another vendor broke our garage door 24 hours before the event) Chef Peter and his crew took it in stride. They were on time and hauled their heavy equipment in and got straight to work. He was basically cooking/grilling on one side of our building (back patio), having to run back forth to the interior kitchen and sink. He and his crew worked SO hard that night. They are very professional. Every plate was perfect, they cleared the tables and made sure everything was spotless when they left. I also hired Jacob the Bartender (he works with Chef Peter) and WOW! Crafted cocktails and excellent service. Every person who was late to my party was sat and had a drink in their hand in less than a few minutes. Jacob was a pleasure to work with. Great bartender. I could not ask for a better duo for the night. Also big thanks to Tomas and Erick - their waitstaff. Amazing night they pulled off. I'm a perfectionist. Type A host. I'm very particular on how I throw my parties and Chef Peter surpassed my expectations & more. My entire firm will not shutup about how amazing the food and service was. The party was a hit and I believe it was because of the food & bar. I will 100% hire this team again for future events.

Working with and learning from Chef Marie was a 5 star experience! Marie did an outstanding job of helping us celebrate my wife's birthday by teaching our family how to prepare a delicious French/Vietnamese meal, and the entire experience was fun and delightful. She offered many options for the menu and helped me select a spectacular assortment of flavors! From beginning to end, working with Marie was easy, professional and wonderful. She was punctual, communicative, budget friendly, and provided great ideas for our menu and is an excellent teacher. We learned to cook shrimp spring rolls, gyoza, her magic delicious sauce, Seabass, mushroom risotto, and Creme Brule. Each item was fun to prepare and turned out perfectly! Marie was a pleasure to be with, our kids loved the experience, and she cleaned up everything to perfection. We strongly recommend Aimer by Marie and cannot wait to have her out again to teach us French pastries, and more!

From start to finish, the entire experience was seamless and far exceeded my expectations--especially as this was my first time hiring a private chef. Chef Marie was incredibly responsive and easy to work with during the booking process, which immediately put me at ease. On the day of the event, she arrived right on time and brought such a warm, kind, and professional presence into the home. The food itself was outstanding--beautifully prepared, thoughtfully executed, and absolutely delicious. You could truly taste the quality and care in every dish. What impressed me even more was how much she handled behind the scenes. She prepared much of the meal in advance, served everything effortlessly, and left the kitchen spotless. It allowed me to fully relax and enjoy the time with my family, which is truly priceless. This was a 5-star experience in every sense, and I would not hesitate to book Chef Marie again for future gatherings. If you're considering a private chef for any occasion, I wholeheartedly recommend her--you will not be disappointed.
