Jagabans LA — Restaurant in Los Angeles

Cozy restaurant that can fit no more than 13-14 people at a time. Went there twice! First time I had the goat meat pepper soup which was spicy and delicious but wasn’t a lot of meat. The GOAT meat Suya was delicious! The next time I came I tried the cat fish pepper soup, it wasn’t good! The owner is pleasant and personable. However the first time I came the server was slow and wasn’t paying attention. The second time the service was more attentive. It took too long for food to come out. The drinks were fine, I had the zobo. The zobo was made in house. They should always have ice cream for the puff puff. Which they didn’t have when I arrived. It’s a new restaurant so, I’m excited to see what they will do next. Oh there is...

So good! Definitely give it a try! I got the egusi soup with chicken. It came with about 4 chicken drums. They had lots of meat on them & the flavor was great! I got extra fufu, but didn't really need it. I also got the goat, jollof rice, & plantains. So good! The goat was tender, tons of rice & the plantains were cooked so well! Would definitely order again! I'm not very good at food pics, & was too hunger to stop & take them, but trust me!...

Incredible food at Jagabans - I have been eating Peppered Goat for a while and was thrilled to find out JP opened a sit-down restaurant. Highlight was the Dodo with house sauce - the plantains were deliciously soft and flavorful, and the spicy sauce that came with them was next-level. Street parking was pretty easy to find right outside, and the space is nicely decorated. JP is super personable and convivial - great...
