I love African Chop!!!!! I've NEVER had any type of African food before trying this food truck, so…read moremy review might be skewed due to that. I work near Grand Park, so I always catch them during the food truck days. The staff is very friendly and does a really good job at explaining the flavors that each dish has. My favorites are the Fish and Suya combos. . The fish is perfectly cooked and super flavorful. The suya is well-seasoned and they give a relatively good portion. The jollof rice is soooo good. I've always heard my Nigerian and Ghanaian friends arguing over who makes the best jollof rice, and now I understand why they place so much value on it. It really does set off a dish. I believe that the combos are reasonably priced for the portions provided. Bottomline, I highly recommend African Chop!!

They advertised as if they were authentic Nigerian jollof rice like Veronica's kitchen but the so called jollof rice tasted like a sour, salty watery fried rice with some weird spice. The so called fried plantain was tasteless dried chips, and the so called suya was weird tasting limp beef slices. What a disappointment and a waste of $20.

Extremely unprofessional and VERY sketch. Needed to pick up a takeout order and you would have…read morethought they were doing me a favor by making it clear where they were located. Pulled up to the the exact address noted online (as seen in the attached photo) only to find an apartment building with NO mention of them in the call box. When I called to make sure I was in the correct location customer service was extremely passive aggressive and angrily hung up in my face. It seems as though someone is cooking inside of their apartment and an actual brick and mortar does not exist. I'm all about doing what you have to do to survive but perhaps you could maintain some professionalism and tact and pretend customer service matters. You'll notice there aren't any photos available of the inside or outside of this business. Although it all seems shady ultimately I feel empathy for this individual whoever they are and will not leave the much harsher review that immediately came to mind after ending my call with them. At the very least I encourage them to make better practices at whatever business venture they are pursuing and I advise buyers to be aware.

We didn't know what to expect as it was our first time trying Jamaican food. But boy let me tell you- we were blown away! We ordered 4 entrees to share- Jerk chicken, oxtails, Brown stew and the fried chicken. The portions for Large size were indeed large and all came with rice and beans cooked together, and a fresh medley of sautéed vegetables. My first bite was the rice and I was already in love- so flavorful that I could've just eaten that alone and been happy. All of the dishes were packed with flavor, and the oxtail was melting off the bone tender and oh so yummy! I think this was my top favorite, but the Brown Stew chicken was also super tender and delicious. The Jerk chicken had a nice smoky flavor, and a tingle of heat on the tongue- reminiscent of a smoky bbq chicken but with more depth of layers. The fried chicken was also flavorful with its red spices and lightly coated exterior. It was not oily at all and reminded me almost of a crispy baked chicken. I almost forgot- we also tried the Cow foot soup at the end- it was rich from the collagen of the foot, like from pig's trotters, and packed with potatoes, carrots and a deeper orange veg- perhaps a squash of some kind? All of our dishes were spot-on delectable and we will definitely make the trek from OC to visit again. Fresh juices were also refreshing: watermelon, soursop, pineapple ginger (whooo with a real ginger kick to it!) The owners are from Panama and Jamaica and are super sweet, attentive and humble as well. When asked if they wanted to expand, the owner stated they wanted to keep it small and by word of mouth only. But with the home cooking quality and authenticity served up here I'm not sure how long this place can be kept on the DL! Sssshhhh!!! (Sorry some pics are missing as we were too hungry and forgot to take a pic of our brown stew, soup and chicken curry patty!!)

They have…read morebeen at this new location for one year after a prior spot for over 20 years so they are no strangers to consistent quality food. I ordered the oxtail plate which came in such a generous portion - flavorful, tender and with the perfect amount of spice. My friend got the ackee and saltfish which was also delicious. We paired our meals with passion guava and sorrel juices. Both of which were the perfect complement to the food. The establishment is clean, service is friendly and quality is top notch. Definitely a spot I'd come back to when I'm craving authentic Jamaican flavors!

When someone did help us, she was fine. She answered our questions. She wasn't super welcoming, was somewhat knowledgeable. The food took quite a while, which was a surprise given there was only one other group in the restaurant. The food was honestly the best part of the experience. It was solid, good size portions, And had a nice kick of spice (which we like) to it. The beef and chicken patties tasted very good, but did not seem fresh like they were just made. overall the food had decent flavor, filled us up, and we enjoyed it.
