"I LOVEDDDD 10/10 Egusi, Pepper soup, & Okra soup all with goat meat. Super fresh and hot & came with more than enough fufu for everything! Definitely my new spot ! The egusi did leack a bit of palm oil but im sure thats the dashers doing lol"
"This was my first try with african cuisine, and Im so glad I picked this place. The Spinach & Egusi Stew was special with lots of flavor. I ordered with chicken, I received two large drumsticks, they were juicy, fried (not breaded) and it added such a nice crisp and char to the dish. Also a good amount of spice! but it wasnt too much spice for me and im usually a mild spice person. Would reccommend to anyone curious about egusi"

"Really solid Nigerian food. The whipped okra soup was flavorful with fresh fish and good spice level. The dark fufu was smooth, sticky, and not too sour — perfect texture. Portions were generous and the food tasted authentic and homemade. Definitely one of the better African food spots I’ve tried on the road."
"This was my first time trying whipped okra stew. I must say I'm absolutely hooked!! My daughter and I found out about Nigerian Kitchen two years ago while walking through the Uptown area. My daughter tried the egusi and I had the goat pepper soup as well as their pounded yam. We knew then, that we would be "Forever customers". They are consistent in proportion, attention to detail and service. I enjoy the authentic flavor and the love put in every dish!! I thank you for talking with me about my order and making sure it was so delectable!! I ordered fish and goat with my whipped okra. The goat was tender and the fish was cooked just right. This dish has a slight kick, (I love heat) but it goes great with the pounded yam.. Chef's Kiss!! I will be back at the end of the week!!"

"The "boneless bangus paksiw" (fish stew) that I got in my combo was definitely not boneless, so avoid that if fish bones are a problem for you. That said, the taste was on point! Not too weak, not too strong, but just right. I enjoyed it very much; it just shouldn't have "boneless" in the name. And the portion was generous - I ordered a Combination Plate with the chicken inasal and that fish stew, and I got close to a half chicken and (it looked like) most of the fish other than the head and collar. So that combo plate is an excellent value for the money. I agree with the reviewer who said the garlic rice could use more garlic, but overall this combo plate was a good time, and I made two meals out of it.
The Suman Sa Lihiya could easily be split between either two or four people. Definitely too much for one person to eat in one sitting. It comes with toppings/dippers of a brown sugar based sauce and some shredded coconut. This seemed to be the most "basic" flavor of suman from what I could tell, and I liked it, so I'll be trying other flavors.
The Lumpia Sariwa pictured here was fresh and seemed well executed. It turned out not to be a wow for me, but I could tell it was a matter of "I don't particularly care about this dish" rather than anything wrong.
Overall, as you can see there were some minor imperfections, but overall it was very worth it, and I will be trying more dishes here. This was my first time trying Filipino food, and I'm glad I picked this place. "
"
First things first, the crunchy pork belly was a game-changer. The moment I took a bite, I was greeted with a satisfying crunch that gave way to tender and succulent meat. The flavor was out of this world, with a perfect balance of savory and slightly sweet notes. Each piece was expertly cooked and seasoned to perfection. It was like a party in my mouth!
Now, let's talk about the tocino sweet pork. This dish was a delightful explosion of flavors. The pork was incredibly tender and had a beautiful caramelized glaze that added a touch of sweetness. The combination of the savory meat, the sticky glaze, and the fluffy rice was pure magic. And let's not forget the perfectly cooked eggs on top, adding a creamy richness to the dish.
The pork belly was beautifully arranged with a garnish of fresh herbs, while the tocino sweet pork was served with a side of sunny side eggs and fresh tomatoes that added a tangy contrast to the sweetness of the meat.
I can't recommend Imas Kitchen enough. If you're a fan of crispy, flavorful pork belly and mouthwatering tocino sweet pork, this is the place for you. It's a culinary adventure that will leave you craving for more."

"As always, everything from here was so good, and the prices are phenomenal. Every burger I have tried from here is so tasty and that definitely includes the Classic Deluxe (a take on a Big Mac); and the caramelized onions with the Stuffed Falafel add such a level of yumminess, it's unreal. Highly recommend this spot to everyone and happy to have it in my neighborhood!"
"Love Ragadan, it is always consistent. One of my favorite go tos in Chicago. The Oklahoma Onion Burger is so delish. Their tahini sauce & sauces are so delish. The way they use Middle Eastern flavors is so unique & beyond delish. If you haven't you must try this place."

"The Puff Puffs are perfect everytime! We love the Jollof Rice, Fried Rice and Goat Meat - the meat is prepared so cleanly and all the food is so high quality. The Meat Pie & fish rolls taste just like they should! "
"Jollof rice was soft and soggy, Goat meat was hard, overcooked and bland, chicken was bland with NO seasoning whatsoever. Out of everything the plantain might have been the worst. I could handcount the number of plantains (WHICH WAS 5 DOLLARS) and they were so thin it felt like I was eating a paper towel. Would not touch this Restaurant even if they offered me a meal for FREE.

"Nile of Hyde Park misses the mark where it matters most. The chicken shawarma was dry and lifeless, the chips that came with the shawarma were stale, and the bread for the soup arrived still sealed in its plastic packaging. The rice was so over salted, it drowned out every other flavor. The lentil soup was merely passable.
The only redeeming dish was the kifta kabob, which was tender and properly seasoned. One well-executed item couldn’t rescue an otherwise careless meal."

"Ethiopian food is sooo good! I would order again. The meat sampler for one comes with enough injera bread but I ordered one more just in case. This was amazing, my first time eating Ethiopian food. 2 could defintely share one meat sampler there's a lot. It's Delicious! So are the sambusas I got the carrot and potato and beef one and they were both Delicious and The sweet sour sauce that comes with it pairs well. The potato and carrot was my favorite i recommend especially if you're already getting the meat sampler so having something different other than meat is a good option for balance. Everything was packaged well and warm when it got to me. I don't normally try new things becuse I'm scared I'll waste my money but this was worth it. I actually enjoyed it. One of the good ones."
"We've been ordering and visiting Ethiopian Diamond for over 20 years. The food is incredible. While we sometimes order spicier options, our favorites are the 29. Tikel Gomen and the 15. Doro Tibs Alicha (Mild). We love that there are so many vegetable options, and we often order the 39. Veggie Combo so we can get a variety. The food is consistently good and always fresh. The portions are large and great for sharing. Recommend ordering extra Regular Injera Bread. Everything tastes amazing. 10/10 we will certainly order again. Food is priced well, great value."

"The Combo #4 Vegetarian was delicious, however I overpaid considering that 85% of this dish was rice. There were barely any vegetables... The Peerakai Bolani perhaps didn't travel well as it arrived to me absolutely soggy with grease, but then again all of the food was excessively oily. It also seems I overpaid for this, as they were hardly filled. I had a late order, so I will give them the benefit of the doubt. Great flavors, poor execution. Better luck next time?"

"Better Filipino food than 5 star Michelin kuno"
"I LOVE their chicken Inasal...only like 2/3 of the time. I always order from here hoping that it's cooked thoughtfully but the last three times I ordered they've been tough and kind of burnt. This was from yesterday and the other from a week ago, like I still eat it but I get sad. It wasn't always like this. Hopefully next time I can change this review"

"The Asun Pasta was so delicious 😋, and packed with asun....damn l should've gotten a cold malt with it lol."
"The Asun melted in my mouth, and was delicious......the jollof rice was also amazing, it wasn't hard as a bullet, or lacked flavor/spiciness unlike the others l have eaten from other nigerian restaurants. The Plantains was also ripe an sweet.....though for $5 l expected more than 5 slices of Plantains. overall this meal is a 8/10."

"One of the best ways to get food for two people. Or one person. Each component is individually delicious and Casa Mateo is very helpful about accommodating dietary particularities (in my case, an aversion to blood-as-food). The arepas are good enough to warrant ordering more for their own sake"

"This place is affordable and very yummy!! The lunch deal is very good. The portion is good. I love the variety of salad, and crab rangoon. The spicy is not that spicy, so def ask for hot sauce if you want a kick. Their hot sauce is very good as well. "
"Curry was amazing and hot (temperature wise). I chose the mild option, but wished it was still a little bit more spicy. The crab rangoons are also very yummy, I wish the sauce that came with it was a little bit sweeter though. Overall very yummy and will definitely be returning :)"
