Vee-Vee's African Restaurant — Restaurant in Lake View Township

Jollof rice: It was okay if you were going to someone’s house to eat, but not restaurant-worthy tbh.

Fried rice: It was terrible. It tasted like a bunch of village spices and crayfish were dumped inside. Not rich at all, which sucks because that is my favorite food.

Nkwobi: Bad. No cow feet at all, small portion, and just full of palm oil. Not appetizing at all.

Edikaikan: It was okay.

Pepper soup: It was okay.

Suya: Costs $5 per small stick with stale beef and flavorless spice, and a bunch of onions.

Oh, to top it off, I ordered a meat pie (my favorite snack) Please, why did it come as a store-bought Jamaican beef patty? For $4, I could’ve gone to La Fruteria to buy it cheaper if I wanted a beef patty. And if you don’t have meat pie, why not tell the customer instead of giving me a substitute I most likely would have declined. And I almost ordered 4 of them. Thank goodness I didn’t

We spent over $120 for that trash. We only ate the rice and suya there and ordered the rest to go so we didn’t know everything was just going be piss us off. I hate to leave a bad review but the meatpie did it for me. I can’t believe I ordered Nigerian Meatpie and got Jamaican Beef Patty. Nigerians and audacity sha.

Anyway, PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR and don’t waste your time here. Or at the very least check your food before you leave, before you goan pay...

SCAM!!!!!! Our server was extremely uptight. The other person at the cash register was polite and understanding. Honestly not worth it coming here. We sat down and the server gave us bottled water without even asking us what we would want to drink which later we were charged for. I ordered chicken and received fish after 40 min of waiting. Then my friend received his order but after another 20 min of us waiting. We were also charged and extra side dish we never ordered, and the icing on the cake was that you need to be careful and read the whole menu because on the bottom it says that prices are subject to change in the restaurant in typed letters. The guy said that it was an old menu.... ok why would that be typed at the end? its extremely easy to just update your prices, I've worked at a restaurant and we typed daily specials each day. Not worth the wait and food is edible if you...

I called at 7pm and placed my order. I was told the order would take 35 minutes (I already thought this was a little extreme but I ordered anyway). I came in at 8:15pm and proceeded to wait for my order after being acknowledged a good 5 minutes later. It is now 10pm and I STILL DONT have my food. This is clearly a joke. Next time I will make time to cook my own food. It doesn’t take 3 hours for jollof rice. On top of the fact that these folks are rude. Customer service not great at all.....😒 Don’t make no sense how terrible it is. To add insult to injury I wasn’t given my entire order. Omg.

Edit.....The food was good. That's why I'm giving more stars but next time be honest about...
