Waka Foods — Restaurant in Chelmsford

When it comes to many Nigerian restaurants in London, unfortunately, the best way to 'enjoy' the experience is to go with no expectations of quality service.

Our visit to Wakafoods (group of 7) fit this uninspiring stereotype.

There was only ONE person (presumably the owner) who was running front of house, serving tables and running food from the kitchen. Dude was literally sweating because he was working so hard. Although our visit was on a week night, they could have done with one extra person.

I guess because this person was clearly overworked/overstretched, he got part of our order wrong. We didn't kick up a fuss because it wasn't worth the trouble.

Overall, the quality of food itself was decent. The quantities for the soup dishes were slightly on the smaller side making us question the value for money.

In terms of ambiance, they had one track (Buga by Kizz Daniel & Tekno) on repeat the entire night. This became irritating after a while.

The restaurant itself is large enough for big groups and parties and is worthy of consideration for private functions. A public car park opposite provides sufficient parking.

Hopefully the owners can take some of this feedback and...

I’ve had more than one unpleasant experiences from this place. In addition to the food being ridiculously expensive, I went home with an order one time and had no meat in the food! Same food I had opened in the restaurant and sent back because it was incomplete. I assumed they got it right the second time and got home to utter disappointment. Another time, for delivery (mind you, price is twice as much as all other shops around), food took 2hrs 30mins to arrive! I’m honestly done with...
