    Family Meal Plan Jollof Rice with Chicken, plus an order of spinach.
    Kristina W.

    DELICIOUS!!! not 5 stars bc customer service is not the best, but it's ok with me bc the food is WORTH IT! We got the jollof rice & chicken fam Meal, which comes with just rice & 6 piece of drumsticks. I added a bowl of spinach to order. The 3 of us gulped the spinach so fast. Everything was so TASTY. They do need to update their website & social media Information. The dining room is minimal & almost bare, no special decor. We like the food so much, that the place & customer service don't matter, as long as the portion & taste stay consistent.

    The food here was so delicious. Definitely a hidden gem, don't be turned away by the small setting, as it means you will get quick service. I got some tilapia, and jollof rice with meat pies. All of it was delicious and great.

    Beef efu One piece of beef

    Wanted to try a small business out plus love African food when I got here lady was on the phone the whole time I was here even while taking my order Was very rude when asked what type of stew she had I was told "just stew" very disappointed fufu was grainy and not smooth , beef was okay only came with one small pieces for 9.99

    Pallet and boxes in the dining area.

    4:41pm. I am starting my review while sitting here waiting on food. The inside is very boring and the lady who took my order has no personality or customer service. And I couldn't hear her when she talked so I had to keep asking what did she say.‍ (still waiting). 4:47pm. 4:49pm.. still waiting. I notice they have a buffet behi the register, however the foil pans are empty.. 5:54pm The lady says it's ready in a low tone‍ with her back turned. There are pallets in the dining area so I'm not sure why. So, now to the food... The fish was warmed in the microwave. (It's rubbery). The rice is consistently hot throughout. And the plantains are fresh and good. I took some of the rice and put it on the plantains. And threw the fish away! So, three stars.

    Egusi beef w/ fufu

    Every once and awhile you'll find a random courier on Uber Eats that is nearby a restaurant that is nowhere near you. I kept seeing people eat fufu on tiktok. I had to try it after seeing it on my tiktok 100 times. I quickly ordered when I seen Taste Afrik pop up on the UE app. I ordered the egusi beef with fufu. I also ordered the chicken with jollof rice. All for me. I'm not exactly how to describe what I ate. The fufu is like the texture of mashed potatoes. Traditionally, you use your fingers and eat the egusi that way. That is what I did while jumping up and down in my kitchen over how good this was. So good. So much flavor. The chicken was good and spicy. The jollof rice was a little bland compared to the rest. Amazing.

    Tripe and efo

    So 1st off I guess I should have read the reviews before I came here. You're absolutely correct. The waitress or cook or whoever she is, is rude as hell!!!! f I called order in and wanted fufu, efo and goat. But when I arrived I had tripe and 1 miniscule piece of goat. She said it's assorted meat & that's how the goat comes. Told her that's not what I asked for. She then says it would be an extra $4.50 for more goat. And that's on top of the $18.50 I already paid!! Are you crazy??? I'll never be back...

    I tried their Egusi with fufu and it was delicious! Lots of flavors. I will definitely come back!

    Dude. This place is amazing!! Super friendly staff. Had a flyer on my car last might and saw they had a goat burger. Had to head there asap!! They only do the burger on the weekends after 2. So I got the grilled goat and veggies instead. The jollof (fried rice) is so good! The goat is spicy just the way I like it. And they throw in a free bottle of water. If you havent gone. Please do. Not gonna lie, the inside of the restaurant doesn't smell too appealing, but the food is amazing. They're also hosting a sale of African attire on the 10th of December. Plus they have board game night at the restaurant as well. Think that's pretty cool. I will definitely be back!

    Honestly the egusi had almost like a meat/spaghetti base to it. Absolutely not good.

    I loved the food! I love new experiences. Staff was willing to explain the food to new comers. Quite spicy! But that's to be expected.

    When I go to Nigerian restaurants, I'm often worried about long waits and not-so-great service,…read moreeven though I'm Nigerian American myself. During my last visit, I ordered ahead and it took me about 25 minutes drive, which wasn't too bad. The person who took my order was nice, which was a pleasant surprise compared to what I expected. I ordered two portions of suya and two shawarmas, costing a bit over $40. The shawarma was okay in size, but it didn't really stand out. It satisfied my cravings, but nothing more. Now, the suya was a letdown. It had too much oil and lacked that real suya flavor. The taste of curry was too strong, overshadowing the authentic suya taste. Plus, there were way too many onions compared to the meat. I'd rate the suya a 4 out of 10 for the effort. On the other hand, the shawarma, though of an average size, was pretty tasty. It was spicy, so you'll need a drink to handle the heat. I'm giving a three-star rating for both the food and the service, also appreciating that they're open on Sundays. I've tried suya and shawarma in many places around the DFW area, and I think this place can do better. If they work on improving the spice mix for the suya and balance out the meat and onions, it would make a big difference and bring them up to the level of other spots in the area.

    This little place serving big flavor! It's a one lady cooking right in front of you. Portions are…read morepretty big. Very very tasty. Highly suggest you go if you're looking for something different and never had Nigerian food.

    Texas barbecue meets Ethiopian cuisine...? It's brilliant and absolutely delicious. I recommend the…read moreTex-Ethiopian platter for a thorough sampling of all the best things this restaurant offers! It includes: Smoked Doro Wat (Spicy Chicken Stew), Awaze Rib Tip Tibs, Awaze Brisket, Awaze Pork Ribs, your choice of 2 sides, Texas Toast, gluten-free teff injera, and rice pilaf! The hardest part is choosing the sides because they're all amazing, from classic BBQ sides like potato salad, fried okra, baked beans, corn, collard greens, and mac and cheese to Ethiopian sides like shiro wat (chickpea stew), misir wat (red lentil stew), tikil gomen (cabbage and carrots), and more. Even berbere-spiced mac and cheese! Berbere is an incredible blend of Ethiopian spices that is amazing on everything, savory or sweet. If it's just me eating with no one to share, I like to get the Big Ash loaded baked potato. Your choice of meat on a perfectly fluffy hot potato with plenty of butter and sour cream -- it's soooo comforting and delicious!

    We drove 40 minutes from north Dallas to try this highly reviewed Ethiopian BBQ fusion restaurant…read more I guess my expectations were set too high. I expected "knock your socks off" but got very good food instead. I expected a packed dining room but at 12:30 it was almost empty. We ordered the sample plate for 2 which included ribs, brisket, rib tips, and doro wat (chicken stew) with rice, injera and we got beefy collard greens and cabbage with carrots sides. The ribs were excellent. I also really liked the chicken stew. I was surprised by the sour flavor of the injera. The thin bbq sauce was tasty while it was not sweet or full of vinegar. It was a nice alternative to traditional sauces. While we enjoyed our meal, and I would order the ribs and chicken stew again, this place is a bit too far for a repeat. But it introduced me to Ethiopian food which I can find closer to home. I love the creativity of the owners.
