I visited this location while visiting Houston. It is perhaps the best African restaurant I have visited decor wise. It is a small restaurant, but the ambience is impressive. The food was good but pricey compared to what I typically pay in Dallas. The service was good too. Parking can be a hassle because it is a busy area.

  • Stefanie

I’m very disappointed. After waiting one hour to receive my order, my bowl of bitterleaf soup was full of oil. There was very little soup. Also, my beef was extremely tough. I’m very familiar with Nigerian food. I know what is decent and what is rubbish. A total waste of $98.00.

  • Shanda

The food is good but the portion size has gotten smaller. The prices have gotten higher but the food is enough for only a child. It’s better to order online because when you go in person the owner doesn’t greet you. Myself and My Coworkers won’t be going there anymore. More

Small, intimate restaurant. I got the oxtails and joloff rice. Flavorful, but oxtails were tough. The rice was ok, but you could taste the scorching from the pot. Server insisted on a tip, which was a bit rude. Maybe give another try with.different entree. More

  • laolu Owoyems

Very good food. If you want to taste west african (mostly nigerian) dishes this is the place to go. But..... MY LORD do you have to wait YEARS for your order. I think the dinosaurs would somehow make a return before you get your food. Thats their biggest issue.

  • j Brown

With it being my wife & I first time eating at an African restaurant. I can't give it a 5⭐until we visit another establishment out of respect. I have heard great things about this place, and it stood the test of great impressions. We always

  • Alex Anyaorah

This is an awesome place to eat. Other Nigerian restaurant need to go see....how to treat customers. The food was very good and compares to what you will get from similar restaurants in Lagos. The place was clean and welcoming. I was served

  • Bisi K

Welcoming atmosphere. I ordered ewa agoyin which was delicious. My husband ordered Afang soup which he also loved. Great service. The only negatives I have is my appetizer came after my meal arrived. This is an issue that happens with a lot

  • Samuel Ejiwale

I heard about the restaurant from a college all Nigerian group. I had to visit with my college buddies for our reunion. The servers were so nice. They were really informed about the Nigerian culture. The food was out of this world. If this

We arrived at around 6:50 pm, and I guess the servers weren't expecting customers that late or something, but customer service was horrible. The tilapia pepper soup was great. We also ordered Cameron grilled tilapia, but we received fried

I was at this restaurant yesterday with my husband after a long flight thinking we would eat something nice but, unfortunately the ofada rice was so hard and the stew is even worse the meat tasted like it spoiled. the only thing I can eat

  • coat o

The food was just OK. The soup and jelloff rice was good, but the fried rice was poor. The service was HORRIBLE. We had to wait for close to an hour to get our food. Literally, we were told that the fried rice was ready for the kids , but

  • Tosin Obe

The food was not satisfactory. I ordered pounded yam with egusi and goat meat. I got something different. The food took a long time to come out, and it was warmed. The egusi tasted so bad (no salt), showing it had been made days ago. The

  • Christian Affirmation

I called to order food. I drove 1 hour to get to the store. After arriving at the store, I was told they couldn’t sell me the food. This store is very unprofessional. I will never go to this store again. I don’t recommend this store. The

  • Geneva Harris-Osondu

I came into Cafe Abuja because I normally enjoy the food. Well tonight was a disaster. I not only waited over an hour for my order (expected), but they tell me no Nkwobi to yes we got enough for 3 orders. I only needed two. I waited for

  • Cristy Luv

This place is just ok. Upon arrival me and a friend were greeted and seated promptly. The waitress was nice but she wasn’t attentive AT ALL. The food was meh. They shouldn’t call it “soup” when it’s really just grease, a bowl of grease.

  • Amber Young

Came to this place at the suggestion of a friend and I was unpleasantly surprised. This was my first experience trying Cafe Abuja and it’ll definitely be my last. I ordered the jollof rice, Banga soup with the pounded yam, and goat. And

Me and my husband first experience trying this restaurant. He got the oxtails and wasn’t satisfied with them. I tried the fufu, agusi soup, etc. We had great things about this place. The customer service was great! However he spent $69

This restaurant is amazing. The food was soooo good. I got the jollof rice with chicken and plantains and the suya appetizer. Everything was really good, especially the plantains and the stew for the chicken. Also, the staff was very

  • Aishat Onusi

I have a mixed review. Good Nigerian food variety but I wasn't so impressed by their quality control and customer service. The two pieces of goatmeat I was served were so tough I had to abandon them after struggling helplessly to cut
