Nkwagala Concept — Restaurant in Los Angeles

My experience here was very beautiful & I am so moved by the energy, hospitality, and souls that catered to my first time being here. The lady on the phone was very kind and inviting. I got lost while trying to find the building. Her voice and aura spoke a thousand words before I was able to place my order and meet the gentleman that came down just to make sure I was able to have my order taken. I ordered the Mac wings with cucumbers and the oh La la egusi soup. This was my first time trying Nigerian dishes and i really enjoyed the palette journey. I started with the wings & indulged in the cucumbers. I absolutely felt the love in everything that I ate. I’m a big fan of going to restaurants that serve beautiful energy that washes over you to the point where you have a miniature awakening in the process. I’ve only encountered this once in my life from cooking outside of my own. This would be the second! Amazing job! I’ll see you again...

Drop everything and go eat at Nkwagala Concept! 😋 OK but seriously, plant eaters, meat eaters, everyone.... this is some of the best food I've had in my whole life! The flavors are mind-blowing. Like a homemade meal and the best restaurant food come together. I drove 30 mins to get it because sadly I do not live close. My faves: James Brown Salad and the Egusi! I actually ordered extra and froze it 🤣 Everything is delicious and I can't believe we don't have more amazing food like this. I've attached a bunch of photos, they are the JB salad, the Egusi, the Biko Soup and the Katogo (🤤). My preference is to eat it with rice instead of the fufu, but I know many people enjoy the fufu, I just find the flavors are yummier with rice (or just alone). Please support this restaurant instead of all those chains, one because they deserve it! and two so I can keep eating here! Thanks SO much Nkwagala, I'll be...

First time having Nigerian. Tried Egusi and a big phenomenal wow. I've traveled all over the world and this may be one of my favorite meals I've ever had. The combination of spices creates such a complex and distinct taste different from any other cuisine that I've had.

I'm reminded of Indian or Thai curries, but only as a way of helping others relate to it. The truth is, it's something entirely different and exotic.

The heat gave it an awesome kick that further enhanced the flavor. I'm sold on trying more Nigerian cuisine, but I suspect this Nkwagala Concept is true homemade and authentic Nigerian food.

They even called me afterwards to ask me how the food was. Such kind and hospitable people.

If the price seems high I promise you it's worth every penny and then some. Skip the Michelin restaurant and order from Nkwagala instead. You...
