I had the egusi soup with goat and fufu. The best Nigerian food I've ever had in Miami! It's hard to find authentic Nigerian cuisine so I'm happy I found a place that meets the standard. read more

I ordered food via delivery. The Fofo was more like mashed potatoes and it had an after taste, which is not good and it did not go with the beef soup that I had gotten. The beef soup was small had four pieces of meat and the meat was tough. The soup also was not satisfying and lacked seasoning. I did have the moin moin and that was really good. The seasoning in there it was on point. The amount of money that I spent on this meal was not worth what I received. This establishment needs to do better. read more

Service was fine, food was pretty bland. I've had a lot of Nigerian food and this place didn't hit the spot. I ordered the Jolof rice and Pepper chicken, they put in a plastic to go container and then NUKE IT IN THE MICROWAVE FOR 3 MINUTES...best part is they have the audacity to charge 28$ for a portion of rice and 3 pieces of chicken. So many other Nigerian restaurants with bold flavor, WAYYYYY friendlier service, and cleaner ambiance. read more

Ambiance: It's clear this place is on its last leg. It looks like a serving station in the middle of a storage room. Service: Fast Food: I ordered the egusi and fufu. It lacked much flavor compared to egusi that I've had from other establishments. It was simply yellow broth. I won't EVER go back and the Miami-Dade DOH needs to take a gander at this place. read more

Went back again.. I absolutely love this authentic Nigerian cuisine the best in Miami thank you, mama Sherry. read more

Mostly oily with no flavor. I didn't like that the food is sitting out Buffett style, you order, then they microwave your food. It wasn't until I got home that I had concerned since I got chicken. My Meal: Jollof rice with chicken, okra soup, fufu The chicken. The chicken was tough. It left me wondering if it was old. The fufu was too sticky. The rice was ok. A little oily due to the "gravy" from the chicken. Of the food I got, the okra soup was the most flavorful, but not by a lot. read more

Terrible service. Foreigners need to understan, just because im black dnt mean I know what you are cooking. We are coming to try items. All that turning your nose up because I'm not sure what to eat or because my choices isn't what you would eat. I drove from pompano to try these food. Definitely won't be back.

Didn't know Nigerian food can be that bland. The most rude workers (i get that you hate your job but cmon) Every single dish I had had zero flavor - most disappointing spot I've been to ever honestly read more

Never had worse African food lol. Literally disgusting Most rude customer service as well It's kind of insane how they're open the food was inedible and tasted nothing like it should read more

Ok, so I went to this location with some friends. Because I wanted to try some nigerian food. I have been to Nigerian restaurants in Miami. But I want to try this location now. The first thing I loved about it was that it felt like I was in Nigeria. The smells, the interior, the Nigerian household products for sell and the family helping out in the restaurant. All of this was nice but the main reason I was here was for the food. We had a lot, fufu, egusi, eba, jollof, steamed fish and puff puff. It was so amazing and bursting with flavor. Honestly just based off the food alone this is my new favorite spots in Miami for Nigeran food. Also the cashier was extra nice when she found out it was my friend's first time having Nigerian food read more

It was my first time here and it was the worst. I am an African and the way this lady portioned the food off just to over price it for something I didn't want. I got charged 90$ for basic food. On top of that they have a lock on the door so you have to pay to leave or the door won't open. read more

I had the pleasure of meeting Mama Sheri, and she is truly a beautiful soul--inside and out. Her hospitality was warm and welcoming, and her food? Absolutely incredible. Authentic African cuisine, cooked with love, clean, fresh, and full of flavor. Every bite tasted like home. If you ever get the chance to experience her cooking, don't pass it upyou'll be glad you did! read more

I came here for my mom. She's been wanting to try egusi, fufu and jollof rice for a while now and finally found a place. When I walked it the restaurant I was greeted by a woman who was helpful and answered all of my questions with no problem. My mom enjoyed everything. Her only complaint was how oily The egusi was. She wants to try okra soup next! I paid $23 total for everything. read more

My favorite African restaurant.in miami for almost 20 yrs, it's takes me back home I enjoy the egusi and my favourite is the vegetable soup with stew, thanks sherri read more

My favoriteeee African restaurant in Miami! The best efo riro and pounded yam you will try! Must stop by.

Honey! Let me just say that I have been missing out! Ok! After some serious scrolling on Tiktok, I came across this new trend of trying/eating African food. Of the various videos, people were either eating egusi soup and fufu or okra soup and fufu. I opted for the egusi soup simply because from the videos I saw the okra was slimy. So after seeing this, of course the first thing I do is hop on yelp so see if there are any local African/nigerian food restaurants. Lo and behold there were 3 between Miami and Broward! Won't he do it?! Initially I was going to try a restaurant in the North Miami area but because of where I was and the laziness in me of not wanting to drive, I settled for Sheri. What's even crazier is that I have passed this restaurant plenty of times and always wondered what type of food they sold. Now if you are too bougie for whole in the wall establishments, this is not the restaurant for you. This is a half restaurant, half store. The food is out and uncovered but keeps the temperature. I saw that someone commented that they didn't like the fact that they warm your food up in the microwave. I asked her not to and the lady didn't complain. She actually explained why she microwaved it but I told her it was fine. To my surprise the food was piping hot. Especially the fufu. Now one thing I will say is that based on the videos I saw, this restaurant does not give you much egusi. Instead what they do is put about two spoonfuls of egusi and offer you a meat. You get to choose from beef, goat or chicken. Out of the three, the beef looked the best. Not to mention, I don't eat goat. The meat and the egusi was delicious. However honestly if I had to choose, I would have preferred more egusi and no meat. The fufu I discovered is nothing but pounded yam (potato). I even watched a video of how it was made on Tiktok. From the videos, I assumed it was some kind of wet dough. Just based off of pure appearance alone. It doesn't have a taste when eaten alone but with the egusi it is amazing! I am definitely going to try out the other restaurant just to see if they give more food. However on days when I don't feel like driving there, I will definitely come back here. read more

So damned rude. Came to try different food and did not get very far at all! Why? Let's just say I don't know about the food and the lady serving was so rude. I was asking questions and she was oh God! So I left...not going to eat what I don't know..what a shame.. read more

Amazing place. We were greeted by a man And immediately they took care of us. The restaurant is big and clean. The lady who works there gave us big portions. I really like this place and will definitely be back. Customer service 10/10 food 10/10! And they also have a store that sells Nigerian products, which is also a plus. read more

This restaurant has very good food! I had the fried chicken with fried rice and plantains. Everything was cooked perfectly. My husband had the fish with veggies and pounded yam. We both enjoyed the food very much. The lady the served us was very pleasant. We would definitely come back here if we lived in this area. read more

Sheri had excellent customer service!! Food was amazing!! Would definitely recommend!!!

This was my first time trying this dish. And it was really good. I'll be honest I'm not sure if I was eating beef or oxtail, it was still delicious, but just a bit fatty on the pieces for me vs having more meaty pieces. read more

Don't believe the hours. They may or may not be open. I would call ahead before making the drive.

Good authentic Nigerian food. The joloff rice is perfect. The okra sauce was good. The beef was good. The fish was good. Didn't try the chicken. Next time I will. The turkey was good as well. Gives plenty of rice. Not as spicy as I would like but it was good. read more

Great Africa food, this is my spot..My daughter and I love the goat pepper soup... so many nice dishes...fufu, aww the best...Mama Sheri thank u every time read more

The food is 5 star, I can't even lie. The issue is pricing. She doesn't have a pricing menu available and it seems as if she charges you what she feels like for the day. Last time I was there we order egusi soup and efo with pounded yam / I swear it was $45 for those deliciously small meals. I recommend having visible menu and pricing on all your meals and products you sell to make it fair and better customer experience read more

Fufu was nasty People were laughing Unpleasant atmosphere Expensive Fly's were everywhere read more

I found a zip tie in the FuFu but besides that everything was good! I don't know if that's going over my head but the service was nice too! Made me feel at home read more

I came in and prepaid $32 to be able to pick up 20 puff puffs the next day at 8 am for a class. When I arrived the next day I waited until 8:30, at which time I could not wait any longer without being late to class. No one ever showed up to open the store. I called over 20 times through out the day and no one ever answered the phone. Not only did this restaurant steal from me, but my grade suffered as a result of not bringing in the food I was required to bring. This was a horrible experience. I would give 0 stars if I could. read more

Sheri Restaurant - African Near Me - Miami Gardens, Florida

Recently there was a talk thread of Nigerian food on Yelp, which prompted my curiosity. I love adding pins on my imaginary culinary map. Sheri is right off Palmetto in a much bigger location than expected. I see a buffet counter with trays of food, behind glass. After assisting another customer the lady asked me what I wanted. I explained to her that I've never tried Nigerian food and not sure what to try. This is my standard phrase when visiting restaurants with unfamiliar cuisines. Usually I get a brief intro. If lucky I get an enthusiastic response with offers of samples. However, this lady sure didn't seem thrilled. She was probably rolling her inner eyes. I pointed to a dish with chunks of meat and bones and asked her what that is. "Meat" came the answer. Geez who would have thought! I pointed to another with what appears to be some grains. "Is this rice?" "No." "Vegetables?" "No." I asked her how much are the dishes, she said $12, but I was unsuccessful figuring out what goes into the $12? Any two entree? Three? With rice? Rice only? She held up a lump wrapped in aluminum foil and said, this is $12 but I had no idea what that is. And unfortunately it's not a barrier of limited English. After a few very awkward and unsuccessful rounds of twenty questions, she asked, "where are you from?" Not in the friendly, curious manner about how I came to this place, but rather a rebuking, don't you know you don't belong here challenge. Tired of my questions, she told me to look at the menu, which is helpfully filled with foreign words and no description or picture. I am amazed at myself... it was a couple of minutes after she walked back into the kitchen that I realized: 1. She is not coming back out. 2. It is not rude for me to just turn and go. Well, if you are looking for a review for the food - sorry, I can't tell you anything about it. Maybe another day I'll muster up courage to try another Nigerian restaurant. read more

Great place food awesome customer service great atmosphere awesome I 100% recommend this restaurant

I'm so happy I was able to find this place. About an hour ago, I went to another Nigerian Resturant in the area to find the doors locked and the owner out on an errand. Having driven 30 minutes and not wanting to waste my gas, I waited 30 minutes for the owner to return, to no avail. Needless to say, I didn't leave a good review. I found this Resturant on google and I'm glad I gave them chance. That Egusi soup was very good. She mixed it with stew and gave me some pounded yam. It's $15 dollars for Egusi (a bit steep if you ask me) but it tasted good. The only problem I had was the fact that they microwave your food to serve, and do it in front of you. All of the food it sitting out, and when you order thru microwave it and give it to you. Other than that, don't hesitate to buy some Nigerian food from here. The portion sizes are decent. I will be back when I need my Nigerian Food Fix. read more

I can't say enough good things!!! All the food is amazing and wish I could eat it everyday!

I truly don't know where to begin. The people working there were very friendly. Place looked clean. Food could've been better. The jollof rice reminded me of the texture of brown rice and it didn't have a lot of flavor. Food is microwaved before served which I didn't mind but the soup was just bland. I will not be visiting again, not worth the money to me. read more

Contrary to what most reviews have mentioned, the food is the exact opposite of bland. It is not processed and is 100% authentic and amazing. I had the spinach, beef, and the recommended Spicy chicken. Very spicy (comparable to wasabi) yet amazing. Service is great, very friendly staff, and more importantly clean! P.S. if you want authentic, clean food come here. The microwave doesn't make a difference! read more
