Okay so as a West African that eats Nigerian and French West African food all the time, I'm always…read morevery skeptical to try West African restaurants because I worry the flavors will be Americanized. I heard so many amazing things about Heritage Spice so I absolutely had to check it out! Also I friend of mine recently catered from Heritage Spice and the food was delicious (I loved the jolllof. It had the perfect smoky party Jollof flavor). I'll start off by saying the menu items are pricey and the prices nearly turned me away...but the food was INCREDIBLE! I seldomly come across a Nigerian restaurant that fully hits the mark on flavors and keeps everything true to the culture. I tried the egusi soup with goat meat and fufu. The stew had a generous amount of goat meat and the egusi tasted very fresh. There was a good level of heat without it being overly spicy. The spices in the stew reminded me of my grandmas home cooking. Lastly, the fufu itself was soft and tasted very fresh as well. The egusi stew truly hit the spot and was the highlight of my work week. Overall 8.5/10 for the egusi and fufu (8/10 for the jollof I tried at a catered event and 10/10 for the puff puff I tried at a catered event). I also ordered the food on Grubhub so that most likely inflated the prices. I'm excited to try out other items on their menu! When I went to the restaurant I was hoping to also get the puff puff because I tried their puff puff at a catered event but I was told they only sell puff puff on Sundays or do pre orders for specialty items like puff puff or meat pie.

I later realized it seems like more of a takeout restaurant. I ordered the peanut butter soup with goat and a side of fufu. I was expecting the peanut butter soup to have more of a peanut butter taste, but it did not - it tasted more like a stew, but still delicious! It was my first time trying goat so I wasn't sure what to expect. I really enjoyed it, the meat was super tender and flavorful. The fufu complemented the meal nicely as well. The person taking our order, as well as the chef were super nice. The chef came out and made sure we were enjoying everything. Overall a very good experience. Prices were reasonable. I would definitely recommend for takeout versus dine-in.

It was spicy, but I actually loved the heat and flavor. For the main dishes, we ordered fufu with lamb, jollof rice, banku with fish, and later tried the fried fish with fried yam. Everything tasted delicious, and everyone at the table loved the food. Our server, Ladina, was amazing. She explained the dishes well, was very attentive, and provided awesome service throughout the meal. The atmosphere was nice, clean, and welcoming. The prices are a little on the high side, but the food quality and service made it worth it. Overall, it was a great first experience with West African cuisine, and I would definitely recommend Safari 77.

There are different rice dishes available as well as accompanying stews. I don't eat meat and I don't like fish, so the woman behind the counter, I assume is Betty, was able to accommodate me by combining two rice offerings (Jollof and Waakye) with a red sauce and a spicy condiment. A very nice and clean establishment. She was very gracious. I'll be back.

It all came out to $12 dollars and lasted for two days. The jollof had more of a smoky/peppery flavor than Nigerian jollof I've had in the past. The standout to me was the fried chicken, l loved how the African spices enhanced the flavor. I saw a previous review where someone called this place ghetto and unsafe which isn't fair. Can it be intimidating to walk into because of its appearance and customer service? Maybe, but it's exactly like going to your favorite Jamaican, Spanish, or halal places in the area. The language barriers and cultural differences shouldn't stop you from enjoying new restaurants.

So if you see Tasty Ethnic Foods, Nhyira or Sidibe, all are referring to the same restaurant. For entree I went for jollof rice and waakye. Both of these are very flavorful and slightly spicy rices. By default it comes with chicken fry, mutton curry, boiled egg and fried fish. Portion is huge, and you get to taste everything. And everything is flavorful also. I had a couple of drinks as well. Ginger lamurgreen drink was less like a cola and more like a ginger herbal medicine. It had a strong ginger flavor, which is so strong that it burns in the throat a bit, like herbal medicines do. Housa fura millet drink was also less like a cola. It was more like a congee in a bottle which is slightly sweet. I feel it is more like a meal replacement drink.
