A Plate of Jollof Rice with chicken wing
Kartanya B.

Suya on the spot is a Casual African restaurant. The Food was good. We arrived right when they open so it took a little time for the food. I didn't mind because everything was made fresh. I definitely would return and recommend to others.

1. A Pack of Beef Suya
Dara A.

Sorry, I started eating before I got a pic and had to get a quick one before I finished it!! Beef suya: 11/10!!!! I'll def be back! They make the suya to order and right in front of you! RUN DON'T WALK!!!!

Was in the area and saw someone make a TikTok about this place. The suya did not disappoint it was delicious! They give you a large portion too. The customer service was great as well. I would eat here again.

2. Two Skewers of Chicken Suya, with Jollof (extra)
Emile H.

This was my second attempt to eat here , first time they "ran out of jollof" (it was early afternoon) Went today, ordered suya chicken and jollof, Cost 16 dollars , was a 20 minute wait for the food. People I ordered before got their food before me.(maybe order for pick up) . Food rating 7/10

I was driving down the street one day and happen to see this sign so I was intrigued to try it. My friend happened to go this morning and enjoyed it so I figured let me give it a try on my way home. I ordered a pack of the beef and one order of the chicken. I enjoyed the beef more than the chicken. The chicken tasted like it may be chicken breast and was a little dry for my liking but It had a little spice to it as well so that helped give it a nice little kick. The portion size was lent bad for the price as well. I'd say the beef suya was 4/5 and the chicken was 3/5

Beef Suya with Jollof Rice and Beef Suya

For was really good. I would def be coming back. Service was good as well. I can tell the restaurant was going to be good because it was so many ppl coming in and out.

Egg rolls and 5. A Big Pan of Beef Suya
Jasmeen E.

This place is small but it's packing a lot of flavor. The customer service was good. The food is made fresh and they have homemade drinks. Almost everything me and my friends had was delicious. My favorite was the turkey Suya, meat pies, samosas, beef suya and zobo slushies. If you are looking for some good African food. I would highly recommend this place

Fresh made juices

I tried food from this restaurant at the Halal Festival. The staff was nice at the booth. They had samples of juice for you to try. I ordered beef suya and jollof rice plate, the pineapple ginger juice and zobo (sorrel) juice. I enjoyed them all! I do however wish that the cabbage and tomato had not been raw. It worked out though because when I warmed up the plate at home, it softened the raw veggies. The jollof and meat had a good kick of spice to it.

1. A Pack of Beef Suya
Eni A.

First time here. When I exited my car I could smell the deliciousness. I ordered the beef suya ($10) and chicken suya ($10) and a samosa pack (5 pieces for $5). Beef suya way better than the chicken, the chicken was just chunks vs the beef was cut more thinly. I will definitely be back for the beef suya.

Ikeogu I.

Wow they actually have the actual right suya spice. It's made fresh right in front of you over the grill. The meat for the beef suya could be drier but the taste makes up for it. Plus having the classic Nigerian games (Ludo, Whot) is cool.

OMG, this was such a nice find! My friend recommended ChopNBlok since she had visited both their…read moresit down restaurant and this more casual location. I'm always happy to discover a good restaurant recommendation, and this one definitely did not disappoint. They had someone out front handing out samples of their Jollof rice, curry sauce, and stewed plantains, which were part of their Golden Bowl. I'm not a big plantain person, so I initially asked for mine without them. But, I decided to give them a try anyway, both with and without them. I'm glad I did because the plantains actually added a really nice balance to the dish. The combination of the rice, curry, and plantains was mostly savory with just a hint of sweetness. Hands down, this was my favorite dish. I also have to give a shout out to the woman out front handling the samples. I spoke with her the most, and she did a really good job of selling the restaurant. She was welcoming, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience enjoyable. Sometimes it's the little things, like someone taking the time to introduce you to the food and make recommendations, that can really make a difference. All in all, ChopNBlok was a great find, and I'm glad my friend recommended it. I don't live in the area, but if I ever find myself back there, I would definitely return for the Golden Bowl. It's always nice when you discover a dish that makes you want to come back for more!

The food was decent, but unfortunately the customer service really ruined the experience for us. We…read morespent around $100 on three meals, so I expected much better treatment. The interaction with one of the employees was unnecessarily rude and embarrassing, and it left a really bad impression. For what we paid, I expected a much more welcoming and respectful customer experience. Unfortunately, I don't think we'll be coming back to POST location.

I shared the fufu with egusi soup with stewed goat added, the Stewed Hen, Moin Moin, & Jollof Rice, and the meat pie with a friend and it was plenty for both of us. The fufu with egusi soup was super delicious with a spicy kick that I loved (7/10) . The plate was the star of the meal. Everything from the stewed hen, to the rice, to the greens were all so well seasoned and I truly enjoyed every bite (8.5/10). The meat pie was also delicious with a savory filling and the pastry was thick and buttery but surprisingly not overbearing considering the pastry to filling ratio (8/10). Overall the food was awesome and seemed quite authentic. Would definitely come back to support this small local business!

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.

Overall, I found the food to be very flavorful, well seasoned, and unique. My daughter and I actually ended up liking each other's meals more than our own, so we switched plates, which worked out well. We also ordered a few extra items, including wings and yams. The pounded yam was interesting and very different from anything I usually eat. It is probably not something I would go out of my way to order again, but I am glad I tried it and now understand a little better how it is eaten. The one disappointing part of the visit was the ordering experience. The young man who rang us up was polite, but he was unable to make any recommendations. He said he had been working there for about three months and still could not really suggest what to order. For someone like me, who is unfamiliar with this type of food, recommendations would have been very helpful. I would have appreciated some guidance on the most popular dishes, common choices, or what first-time customers usually enjoy. That said, the owner was extremely kind. She came out to our table, spoke with us, and helped explain how to eat some of the food we had ordered. I really appreciated that. She came across as a very sweet person, and based on her hospitality alone, I would come back to support the business. This style of food may not personally be my cup of tea or something I will crave often, but I respect the flavor, the care, and the local business behind it. I would give Bantu House four stars. It could have been closer to 3.5 for me personally, mostly because of the lack of ordering guidance, but the owner's kindness and the quality of the food pushed it to four.

Such a delicious meal in every single bite with each bite being full of moisture and consistency too. The drumsticks had a slightly crispy exterior, really tender flesh, very juicy to almost falling off the bone feel to them. They were cooked thoroughly without being dried or burnt. That spicy, oily red sauce was so aromatic with just enough kick to it. It wasn't creamy, but not too watery either. The Jollof rice was smoky, savory, buttery and a little spicy. The greens had a subtle ingredient in them and complimented the rest with some earthiness, while the plantains were like a mini dessert. The plantains were very good with a really soft, creamy texture, good warmth and natural sweetness. The service was very welcoming, friendly and efficient. This poultry dish is a real treat every time with every flavor profile in play satisfying multiple pallets.

A very nice lady talked me through the menu and made suggestions. I went with the golden bowl and substituted shrimp. As I sat and waited for my order, I really enjoyed the music. It was loud, but perfect for the venue. The bar area looked so inviting. It was late afternoon on a weekday, but this spot was already 1/2 full. I noticed a few folks booed up on dates, as well as some friends hanging out. This spot gave me those cool back in the day vibes I'd have when picking the perfect hang out spot when I lived in NYC. My food was ready quickly. The spice and flavors were awesome. Everything was cooked to perfection and well balanced, ... and the curry --- OMGoodness! It reminded me of food my mom cooked. My only complaint was that I wanted more of those luscious stewed plantains. The next time I'm in HTown, I am definitely returning to this spot. I'll eat in, have some cocktails, and soak in all the good vibes here. The parking lot is small, but you can find some free street and metered parking in the area.
