African pride Food and kitchen

"Oh my God today I went to this restaurant called was a store/restaurant called African pride and I got this food called jollof rice it came Beef and plenty I just did a taste test and could not stop eating it. You guys have to go check it out. It is on Matlock in Arlington, Texas. A male fit for a kings and queens"

"The lady running the place was very friendly and kind. The building reaked of raw sewage. The food was ok. My kids liked it. I didn't care for it."

"Well, the hours on Google match what's listed on the door but nobody is here. It's 11am. There's curtains up over the door. the door is padlocked. After reading some other reviews and the response from I'm assuming the owner not sure I'll even return. They seem rude or at least the opposite of good customer service. Maybe they don't realize that they're being rude. When I went to Kenya and had dinner at restaurants there with my kenyan husband, their idea of customer service also does not match what we consider to be good customer service here in the states. He laughed at me ...was like get over it. Those higher service standards won't work over here. Accept what's served. So maybe it's not intentional or they see it is as ok to respond in this manner. The response that I saw to the young lady that took a while to decide what she wanted to eat...the owner actually said "make sure you tell them that you changed your mind 5times before deciding, who does that" WOW at the owner. I feel that's unacceptable.. You should not rush your customer especially one there for the first time and new to your cultures expression of food AND giving their hard earned money during these hard times.. if we're getting on your nerves that much then, yes we need to take our business elsewhere. Just my humble opinion. I know you're in the business to make a profit but as consumers we're in the business of trying to stretch our dollars these days So if we choose a new place to try we want to make sure we leave with exactly what we wanted and get our moneys worth. There's nothing worse than food you end up not liking, it's like you just rolled down the car window and tossed the money out the window. I would like to think you can appreciate that perspective as a business owner as well. God bless you and your business. Just something for you to consider."

"The experience at this restaurant warmed my spirit. Oby was our server and she went above and beyond to accommodate us and make sure we were happy. I will definitely visit again. So far it's my number one restaurant. Keep up the good work ma'am!"

"I have never tried African food but was always curious. I have decided to explore my palate and found this place online. After some research I decided to start with the Egusi soup and fufu. I called my order in and the woman was very pleasant. They actually called me 10 minutes later saying my order was ready. That impressed me. Made me feel like they cared about me getting my food. Went into the shop and was greeted by an entire family with smiles on their faces. Went home and ate. Food was piping hot and literally THE. BEST. FOOD I've had in years. Such a good experience all around! I will be coming back."
