"4. Pounded Yam Served with Your Choice of Soup & Meat. Is my ultimate favorite meal I always get the pounded yam and cassava leaf with goat meat, it's a hit every time. "
"EVERYTHING WAS COLD AND NASTY WHEN IT ARRIVED... My order was ready when the Dasher got there so, my food sat for an hour before a Dasher was assigned to my order. This place is selling FAKE AFRICAN DISHES!!!!!!! I ordered Pounded Yam with Egusi and it was awful. The pounded yam was mashed potatoes rolled into a ball and the bowl of spinach was NOT EGUSI. My Jallof rice is mushy.. Also ordered the "Jumbo Shrimp" for $4.99 and they are NOT jumbo. The shrimp option has no description, so I was given Frozen Coconut Shrimp that were cooked in bad grease. I'm so pissed. I spent $56 and could not eat the food. I feel like I was robbed of my money and Doordash acts like there is no understanding of what's going on. If Doordash can't accommodate me for this terrible experience, MANAGEMENT should!"

"This Egusi is definitely 10/10 very authentic and very well portioned .. Everything was sooo delicious and well seasoning , that spicy kick makes you want to back off but because the dish is so delicious you just have to have one more bite ! "

"The food was SOOOOO good! 😩🔥 I’m so happy there’s finally a Haitian spot in town with food that actually tastes like home. Usually, I feel like I have to go all the way to New York or Miami to get good, authentic Haitian food, but not anymore! 😂🙌🏾 The griot was delicious, the legume was flavorful, and the pikliz had the perfect kick. Everything tasted fresh, seasoned, and like a real home-cooked meal. I’m definitely happy I found this spot and will absolutely be ordering again. 10/10! 🇭🇹🔥🤤"

"You will not be disappointed, this food healing for my mind, body and soul. the food flavorful and seasoned to perfection."
"Pepper Soup : there were too many different types of goat meat,I believe there was a cut cow or goat tongue in there as well with cow skin and some other parts I couldn't recognize. I prefer less meat . $19 for small soup in a container :( . Did not taste like regular spicy pepper soup. Was a little watery. Moin Moin :was hot but okay, I notice some fish in it and it makes it not very appetizing to eat without worrying about swallowing some. Vegetable Soup (Efo Riro) : It was okay, I did not find it tasty, took a few bites maybe three to taste it better. notice it was cooked in palm oil, along with the pepper soup."

"I will always continue to order from this location. They follow order notes perfectly. The taste of all of their food is delicious!! The Quarter White Chicken is always well seasoned and juicy. Everything is so fresh! Today was my first time trying the Carne Asada and I was blown away!! The mashed potatoes and macaroni and cheese are well made. I read reviews regarding the "soupiness" etc. But all it needs is a little salt and pepper, then it's perfect! I actually like my Mac and cheese the way it is prepared at this location. I have ZERO COMPLAINTS!! Thank you Super RICO!!! My family loves your food!!"
"Their food is so good. The restaurant is spotless, and the staff is friendly. The chicken is flavorful, the Yucca Fries are fluffy, the steak The Quesadilla is full of meat and cheese...but the star of the show for me are those Brussel Sprouts & Carrots! They have me in a chokehold. I am still working my way through the menu, but everything I have had so far keeps me coming back."
