Omowumi O.★★★★★ — What a lovely place to be✌️✌️I enjoyed every bite of the meal
Joseph N.★★★★★ — Disappointing Experience – Not Worth the Price
I had high hopes but my experience was nothing short of disappointing. The food was honestly terrible—bland, poorly cooked, and nothing like what I expected. On top of that, my order was completely messed up. I had specific preferences, but they were ignored, and I ended up with something I didn’t even want.
To make matters worse, the prices were ridiculously high for what was served. If I’m paying a premium, I at least expect decent service and food that tastes good. Unfortunately, they failed on all fronts in my opinion.
Definitely not returning.
Paul A.★★★★★ — The food sold here is delicious. Different delicacies, especially if you love calabar food.
Sekinat G.★★★★★ — Varieties of dishes / soups ate available. Get ready to dig in deep into sumptuous meals prepared. Customer service is also on point and service is done on a first come first serve basis. Parking space could possibly a major issue though. Finger licking meals I must say
Onifade A.★★★★★ — I didn’t really enjoy the food, but overall the atmosphere was clean and neat.
