Food was amazing, I had the Egusi soup. Loved the spice level, it was just perfect. It’s also very nice in here, esthetically pleasing for everyone that loves take pics. Music is also played but it’s not too loud that you cannot hear each other.

I visited Scotland and found this restaurant on TikTok, i was not disappointed. Food was so good, fresh and it was served quick. Ranga was our server and he made us feel welcome and taken care of. He was kind, attentive and respectful, i will definitely come back here and tell others about it.

Had a great time here... Met with Kome who made sure we had a feel of home. The space is a bit small though but the service and tasty food made up for it.

Came here by chance with a friend as we wanted to try out something different from the usual "exotic" food. The place is small and was not crowded when we went. As non-Africans, we were not familiar with any of the food names, recipes and most ingredients, but the waitress was very kind and explained every item on the menu, making some suggestions for "beginner-friendly" options - you really need to be used to some flavors to appreciate some of the dishes otherwise it might scare you away! For us, it happened with one of the meals that had a "meat mix" - it was a bit weird at the beginning, but then we grew fonder. As it is not our native cuisine, we can't really judge how close to its roots it is, but I guess it's always nice to try out different food. The waiter(/owner?) was very amiable as well and we had a lovely chat about a range of interesting topics. And of course, we really enjoyed our drinks - the Nigerian Fanta does taste different!

Lower your expectations on the smoky party Jollof. I ordered Jollof with Turkey and then Ewa Agonyin to take away. Turkey was good with a tasty pepper sauce on it. The Jollof was a total let down and, for the price, not something I’d recommend. The Ewa Agonyin sauce was bland - just pepper with palm oil and nothing like the Agonyin sauce you think you’d get. Perhaps this was a rare occurrence but I was literally forgotten at the table. I was customer 1/2 at the time I walked in but it took about 10 minutes before I got a menu and I had to call someone’s attention again to take my order. I think the owners should realize that people visit to remind themselves of home. Least they can do is match that expectation with how the food tastes.
