Everything is great about this restaurant! If there’s a 10 star, I would give it to them. The crew are very sweet and friendly. You can feel the Ghanaian vibe as soon as you walk in. We met the owner too and she was very down to earth. Not all owner operators go out the from the kitchen and greet customers. This restaurant is the most authentic Ghanaian food in Hampton Roads. Make sure y’all go during their happy hour to try their booze. I recommend this place and will definitely go back!!! #teamYendidiVB

The food was delicious, our waiter was kind and attentive to our table. The wings are a must try. My husband and I ordered spinach stew,, it was so tasty and perfectly seasoned. My daughter ordered Okra stew which was my favorite. So happy they opened a location in the Virginia Beach area. We’ll definitely come back again. ❤️

I’ve traveled over 30 countries, slept in countless hotels, and eaten at numerous restaurants, but never have I felt the need to leave a negative review for my worst customer service experiences until tonight (8/26/2023).

Sat at bar because it was a 30 minute wait, waited about 20 minutes before bartender took my order, which I never received because he was running around waiting tables so I just left… I will try the Norfolk yendidi because VA beach store has no customer service… They lost a Great customer because I love to eat…
