"Ate the egg and one meat already. Got the Jollof & Goat Stew massive portion. Worth every bite. Could use a bit more Knorr/ Maggie but I like it like mad. I go use my last card if possible get from this restaurant. It's THAT worth it y'all."
"The food was okay... the Fried Red Snapper w/ Veggies was much smaller than expected & the "veggies" that came with the fish was just raw onions & green peppers. It wasn't worth $20.
The Spinach Stew & Egusi Stew was alright, but the spinach could have been cooked softer. I did expect more flavor.
The Plantain was delicious

"Even though their food is pricy, it's really worth it. Compared to other african restaurants, their food is a lot. I really like their rice and atadindin, the egusi is very tasty as well. The puff puff, meatpie...., the list is endless. Their food really gives Nigerian vibes. I keep coming back every time. I pray I don't spend my life savings on their food 😩"

"Ever dish is appetizing . I only finished part of the dish of curry chicken . I'm a little let down because I was expecting the curry chicken to have a lot more meat in the food container that it was in but the flavor of the chicken juices is so wonderful that I can already tell I'll be returning soon . However I'm sure the oxtails and goat plate will be liked and taste excellent too . I have no serious about the Caribbean meal it's amazing and all of my drinks came with the order . The cream soda in particular is so good that it may really make me get five of those and I was really pleased with every dish that was prepared and served so I'll be ordering five more of those cream soda without adding a dinner I'm going to be reheating some more meals later because I'm so full right now . Tropicana and the Caribbean grill will be my two favorite restaurants . I'll place separate orders for two meals and beverages from each of them so please don't go out of business I will always be there to support your company "
"Egusi soup with Assorted Meat it was very bland, it taste like cheddar cheese. It didn't have any spice. The meat was very chewy. I also got the Oxtail (Large) the oxtail flavor was good but the size of the oxtail was very small (chopped up meat with bones) with a big portion of rice, very small amount of cabbage. For the amount I spent I wouldn't order here again. I am very unpleased. "

"Wow. I honestly had low expectations for the portion size since I ordered the meal box but it was absolutely perfect! I was able to save a little more than half a cup of the spicy rice to use for another meal (since it's packed with rice), and I finished the rest of the bowl. The beef suya, suya rice, plantain, corn salsa and the sauce were 10/10!!!! I absolutely have nothing else to say except the fact that I will be ordering this again multiple times during lunch time!"
"The fried plantain was absolutely delicious and the cucumber salad is excellent. This is my second time ordering from this establishment and the first time I ordered the rice noodles with double lamb and fried plantain, with the cucumber salad and suya rice. Everything was delicious and wonderfully seasoned. My only complaint is that I attempted this time to order the rice noodles again and instead of getting the noodles, I got rice with a double lamb, and not rice noodles with double lamb. But the food was still excellent and I would highly recommend the rice with double lamb."

"This was my first order and everything was perfect. I am Nigerian so a little weary with African restaurants, but I finished my okra soup and pounded yam in about 5 minutes; this was authentic! The okra was delicious (made just like my dad's). Saved the jollof for later, but I took a bite and that was made very good as well. "
"The plaintain was dry and there was only 6 in the entire container, meaning i paid over a dollar for each plaintain. The Tilapia Fresh Fish (1 pc) that i received was better. The stew was slightly a bit too salty but the tilapia was cooked well and was sizable and fit the price."

As always, I like to add extra curry gravy and ground scotch bonnet pepper to the main dish."
"The Fish Sandwich is the best fish sandwich in the DMV today for the spicy vegetables, properly prepared fish that is fresh, portioned generously, and delicious. As always, the Beef Patty is the best in the DMV, and both dishes are well complimented by the D&G Ting soda. I recommend the fish sandwich without the cheese, btw."

"The Eru was absolutely good and the most the way the Gari foufou is made wad excellent not hard like stone as you would find in certain place in West Africa. Bravo to that magic cook who did this successfully
.
I would have liked the Eru with fish and shrimp.
I liked the chicken but to have the Eru with mixed chicken, smoked fish and shrimp with crab added will give the Eru a very good perfume as we have in Togo and Benin .
I have really enjoyed my food one order served two meals. Good value for money and it's healthy.
Can you have the Eru done with peanut oil instead ok palm.
Thank you for this comfort food so well anticipated today.
Best regards"
"I ordered the same thing two days in a row. I don't like that their meals are inconsistent. The only thing consistent was the rice. The second time I ordered I didn't get any plantains, the chicken in the Signature Chicken Meal was smaller and hard. The Sausage Rolls was hard as a rock. I couldn't even dig my nails into it"

"This is my first time trying African Cuisine and I will say 10/10 recommend!!
I’m so glad I chose Juneteenth to try African food!
The Ogbono is so good! It is very spicy, idk if it comes that way. I will try to get regular next time. I thought it was completely vegetable, I had beef or stew meat - it was tender.
The pounded yam goes well with it, it reminds me of a ball of instant mashed potatoes. It helps with the spice.
The Moi-Moi is good! I might eat it for breakfast. The texture is smooth and solid. Its similar to tamale.
The Suya was a little tough. The purple sliced onions were really good and spicy as well.
The meat pie was good! I got chicken, it was flavorful. I was expecting the chicken to have more juice to it.
Overall each item was full of flavor and spices. I will reorder this again along with a dessert!! I think this is a great place for a first timer! If you have never tried African cuisine, be open minded and give it a try!"

"What a treat. I wasn't sure how well Ethiopian food was going to pack and travel but it arrived in perfect shape. The collection of vegetarian dishes was superb. Spicy but not overwhelmingly so. The Tekil Gomen and Shiro Wat are two of my favorites but their version of Kayser -- the rich, mineral-laden beet dish, was incredible. Just delicious. It was served on injera, as it would be in a restaurant, with several more rounds of the flat bread folded over the top to soak up any sauce that spilled over in transit. Ed I definitely did not need the extra side of injera I ordered. This meal would have fed 2-3 hungry people. There is a smaller sampler for one but I wanted to taste everything. So glad I did. Will definitely order again!! "
"Family Special was delicious, especially the beet dish. Definitely a hearty two meals' worth of food. The Sambusa was tasty as well. The pastry was doughier rather than crispy which was different than most others in the area."

"Absolutely delicious and deserves every bit of praise, the flavor is unmatched and rivals any Awaze Tibs I've had before."
"Ethiopian Combina Platter was extremely oily, I spent 20 mins trying to dab the red colored oil out of the soggy injera. And they included only one additional injera, this was the first time I've seen one injera included in a platter. Food tasted good but made me feel super groggy after. Not terrible but won't do this again."
