I absolutely adore this restaurant. Their Jollof rice with beef is the best I have ever tried, and I’ve tried several different west African restaurants. Kobam’s Grill has the juiciest beef tips with a sauce that I could about drink. They always graciously provide me with an extra serving of the sauce. I love the plantains it comes with as well. My boyfriend says it has the best Egusi soup , and we always order two of their meat pies. All of it is so delicious!

The food was very tasty, it took some time for the food to be brought out, but we knew it was being made fresh. Prices as other similar ethnic restaurants are much higher than what you would expect on non-ethnic food style. Definitely would be returning, but maybe once every 2-3 months.

The food is full of flavor! I really enjoyed the meat pie, chicken, rice and vegetable rice. I gave it less stars because it was a long wait time, it seemed like they didn’t have enough staff for the amount of people they were serving. They also just served everything on disposable plates. Limited drink selection, with good choices.

Amazing food and service! First time trying an authentic African meal and it’s now one of my favorites. The staff were very helpful and gave us suggestions and explanations on what we may like. Highly recommend the beef patties and jollof rice! Not to mention, huge portion sizes! Can’t wait to come back.

The best African cuisine I’ve had in a very long time! My friend ordered the catfish. I had the beef pattie, jollof rice n plantains. Delicious! The jollof rice is very spicy, so be aware if your spice tolerance is low. The owner is most hospitable n gracious. The atmosphere is warm n inviting. The kind of comfortable place where you can sit n relax, eat, n talk for hours… Felt like being at my Auntie’s house. The generous portions had me eating this yummy rice n plantains with leftover steak for lunch today!

Our first experience and our food was phenomenal. If you love SPICY food ask to make it spicy.

Excellent! What a wonderful experience. The owner is a very nice lady who did everything to accommodate my request for a non-spicy meal. She recommended the vegetable stew with chicken and fufu – which was delicious! My husband ordered okra stew with beef, which was also spectacular. Give them a try! Don’t be intimidated by the torn up parking lot 🙂

I will come back the food is very flavorful I loved it. The best part was having I believe the owner coming out to check on us and make sure we knew how to eat everything properly. The restaurant is clean and they have very very good outstanding vibes. Nothing to complain about I loved it.
