Ordering takeout is a privilege- a luxury if you will. So if I go spend my hard earned money, and drive 25 minutes to pick it up- I expect my order to be correct especially when I have to wait an extra 20 minutes. I ordered collards and okra stew.. They gave me the correct items but why did I come with NO meat? Excuse me? What am I paying for then? There is non a NON MEAT option on the menu so why was I given just greens? Of course I did not realize until I got home- so I tried calling and guess what? No answer. I called multiple times and no answer..

There are two reasons that I am giving this place 3 stars. The first is it took 45min for me to get my order. As you can see from the picture, this should not have taken 45min. 2nd I had to go back inside to get utensils for my to go order. The young working the counter completely ignored me when I came back in. I said excuse Sir 3 times. I had to wait for the server to get the utensils. The food is decent but time is the only thing I can’t get more of. I suggest you place your orders before you arrive.

I have been here many times and keep coming back because of the food. I usually get the spinach with chicken which is always good. I would highly recommend it. Th e chicken jeloff was also very good and make correctly. I would definitely recommend this place to people. But order a head of time if you don’t want to wait long

This place added a sauce that seemed like someone’s leftover in my order when I asked for sauce the that was missing in my order. If you look at the sauce containers, one is not even up to half of the container, talkless of being full like the rest. The woman just picked it from the back so it seems like she didn’t pick it from the stock but just a leftover from someone. Also, their food does not have the quality that it used to have. I will not go to this place again. They may be serving leftovers to customers.

Terrible customer service. One star is just because the Mc is good. Your security needs more training on how to talk to humans

Great lil place for delish African food. The cashier/server was so nice and helpful since it was our first time. He warned me that the snapper I ordered was fried whole which was nice. My son got to try the eyes–but only after I went to the car. Hahahahahaha. Also, he didn’t even make fun of us for taking pix. Lol.
