Ikoyi Suya Africa Restaurant — Restaurant in Great Britain

Really quite disappointed. First ever time trying African food, so we ordered 2 lots chicken egusi soup and Jolof rice.

My egusi had one chicken leg that was the skimpiest, skinniest one I’ve ever been served and the meat was so dry and hard it was almost inedible and another bit was that literally just a bone, and the second egusi had literally just chicken bone, there was no edible chicken whatsoever.

I really wanted to like it, and when you’re paying over £30 for a takeaway you expect a certain standard. We ended up throwing most of it away and we won’t be going...

Honestly the food was inedible. We got egusi soup and there no soup at all, it was just overcooked and dry. Zero liquid! The meat was absolutely inedible. The whole thing looked like it had been left on the hob for days and days. Most of it was thrown away. I’ve never had a takeaway this bad! I never send food back but if we were in a restaurant that food would have been sent straight back without hesitation. I love African food, but I will never get it...

The reason place like this don't tend to have many white customers is because unlike Indian, Chinese, Caribbean etc etc, we don't know what on earth it is. I've often wanted to try some African food but it's never properly explained what is in it or if it's spicy etc. The are plenty of African restaurants in Medway contrary to this guy but there are not any good...
