Tasty African Food — Restaurant in London

I’ve always tried to overlook the staff unfriendly and rude behaviour any time I’m in the store but yesterday, I just couldn’t deal anymore and that will be my last time there! I’ve always noticed that whenever the staff are serving Nigerians, they have this belittling attitude, they seem irritated and rude for no reason. They don’t smile and when you ask them about the products they are reluctant to tell you any information. Yesterday, as usual I made a 30 mins journey (1hour return) to buy some snacks, when I got in there was a man in front of me being served. The staff serving him was absolutely rude, didn’t look at him and I was already just thinking to myself why they have zero customer service. Only for a white guy to come in, remember I was to be served next after the African man in front of me. Immediately this white guy stepped into the place, this staff started smiling and immediately started serving him. Not even just her both staff left the rest of us on the queue and attended to the white guy who just came in and wasn’t on the queue. And when I asked to be served, one of the staff there had the audacity to tell me to hold on lol. Anyway, I know it’s probably a waste of my time typing this but I hope any African/nigerian person reading this knows that they’ll be disrespected if they ever go to patronise tasty barking. I’ll never come back here,...

I recently tried the assorted okro and pounded yam, and while the pounded yam was well-portioned, the "assorted" okro left a lot to be desired. I was expecting chunks of fish or other proteins, but it was just a basic okro dish. Given the price difference from regular okro, I was expecting more substance.

I also tried the turkey, which was decent, though I'd rate it a 6/10. The puff puff, however, was a standout, with a perfect balance of juiciness and sweetness, earning an 8/10 from me.

As for the bread, it didn’t quite hit the mark. It lacked the fluffy texture I was hoping for and ended up feeling a bit dense—I'd give it a 5/10. Noting that not everyone likes sweet bread. The moi moi was tasty, but it wasn’t as rich as I’d hoped. While there was a small amount of egg in it, it didn’t have the depth I expected, especially for a dish like moi moi. It would have been nice to see more ingredients or flavor richness, even if it meant a higher price.

Overall, I was disappointed with the okro, giving it a 4/10—definitely not up to standard. The packaging, though, was well thought out, keeping everything secure...

My dad went to bring me lunch from here, and all I can say is we try to support business but sometimes it’s hard. He waited outside for 20 mins for them to open, even though they were late, there was no apology. The staff are tired which in return makes them Irritated and it Comes across rude! They have lost there happiness. The food is delivered pre packed which shows there is still a trust issue. The price of the food is like the stock market some days it up and some days it upper. The location is not talking to clean or tidy and has formed a relationship with messy and untidy. There is no point asking the staff for anything as they don’t care it would be better to install a Digital menu atleast you will get the hello on the screen. Food was rough, half of it cold the other half hot, random bits of fish bones just chilling. Ask for beef got fat covered in sauce Pounded yam gets smaller each time. I hope the management reads this so they can acknowledge the problems some people have with this place. Staff can destroy your business without you knowing My mum ate the food Me…… I’ll...
