"I wanted to try the fufu because I heard it was good. I ordered my food, and I asked the young lady who prepared my food if they had a military discount .She directed me to the store area where the owner was, which is a lady with bleached skin. She was the rudest thing I ever saw, and the food was too expensive, 18.99 and $9 for and extra fufu if i wanted more than my order' for wet bread fufu very expensive. She Went on expressing to me how she was the owner and the young lady always doing things she shouldn't do' I felt very uncomfortable "when the young lady clearly stated she had given discounts in the past. She took $1 off and still gave me the round amount of $20. I asked what she took off 10%, and she got so nasty saying she gave me $1, and I act like I wasn't happy. " $1 is nothing to me."I'm blessed beyond that!!! I told her just charge me regular price either you give or you don't it wasn't a big deal. Also, the information she was telling me regarding the young lady as a customer it should have been handled differently between & her employee, and I told her this. Also, the place does not look clean at all, I end up trashing my food. A person so nasty in attitude I wouldn't never eat from. I would never go back, she do not need to run a restaurant more a juggle. The food can't be made with love. I HAVE 1 REGRET, NOT LEAVING THAT NASTY FOOD AT HER BUSINESS. NEVER AGAIN. Ms. Owner kindness takes us far and respecting people. 1 customer service lead to many, just like 1 horrible experience lead to none. I wouldn't dare eat from you!!!"
"Order Equsi soup, fufu, and jollof rice. Equsi soup wasn't cooked with the protein. There was three proteins to choose from all in the same pan. I did not like having to mix my protein into my egusi. It was not flavorful. I had to do a remix (add my own seasoning at home) of seasoning. The jollof rice was hard and dry. I will not be going back to this place. For me, it was a waste of good money."
"Food taste great but over the years the portions are smaller and smaller. They used to fill up my bowl...now 1/3 of the bowl is filled...then if you ask for 1 more spoon..its $6..for one spoon more of soup...great tasting food but very expensive..the fufu outlast the soup now."
"I totally enjoyed my experience. Ms. Joy was totally down to earth, and not just trying to take your money. Everything that I tasted for my event was delightful. I was trying not to scrape the bowl lol. Even the grocery store had reasonable items."
"Reason I gave that 2 star Have none respect Black Young lady with short hair has problem terrible attitude with me so she don’t communicate right to tell me and I told her that I though it 4 fufu because I ordered 4 but she keep face eyes roll didnt write down paper I trying to calmly myself. Bec I’m deaf ! don’t understand what she say so I decided to call my daughter help me to understand what she say now I understand about for 3 soup ok. She begin be funny look at me little too hard during she pack foods set out in the bags I not appreciate what she did. I not going there again might not friendly. anyway foods tasty not bad but I and my girls love fufu with Vegs. But gave us small size that cost expensive no make a sense to me."
