Everyone that step in your store will definitely want to leave quickly due to so many reasons and you still brag about having so many food leftover. Having a lot of Foods leftover is a sign that you need to improve and do better. Feed your workers and help people around you first. you walked a bit far distance to ask for A dollar balance and yet claimed that you are doing well whereas you aren't doing well even to people around you.Foods served from inside and not from small buffet. Disregard foods photos on their website because the foods inside the restaurant are opposite . As an African. This is not African soups for fufu that i know. The fufu here is for those who don't know anything about African food. Real Africans don't go there and that's why it is always empty.The owner is always right and not the customers, very greedy ,very selfish and too arrogant and don't care about customer's feelings, no fresh soup and he keeps soups inside and still call it buffet restaurant. lack good manners.People who have visited Africa will not come here for the second time to buy fufu.customers are required to pay first before seeing what they are buying for which is totally prohibited in all the African countries and is not complete buffet restaurant because some of the soups are kept inside and you have to wait atleast 20 minutes for them to prepare it. This review is to help the owner to do well in his business and to let him know that these are the reasons why people don't come to patronize him. Worst service experience at this location. Customers are not treated well here. 2 smaller size of pounded yam and no boneless chicken or no boneless beef soup of any choice is cost atleast 29 to 30 dollars and not what is in the menu meaning that this the most expensive African restaurant in NYC and yet with poor taste,food and poor service and also being very aggressive, rude and disrespectful. the owner of this restaurant shouldn't ask why Africans including Nigerians don't come to patronize him. You can't cut in green and red pepper , carrots with onions in ogbono soup. If you can't hire a cooker to cook for you. Atleast know how to talk to customers and stop denying customers their rights to ask you questions about your food that they...

THEY POSTED A HUGE FESTIVAL ONLINE FOR OCT. 28TH - OCT 29TH, 2022.
I WENT HERE ON OCT. 28th ONLY TO FIND --- NO "FESTIVAL," NO "EVENT."
NONE OF THE COOK STAFF HAD A CLUE ABOUT THE EVENT. AT ALL!
I FEEL THE OWNER APPEARS TO BE DECEPTIVE ABOUT A FAKE "EVENT," TO GAIN ATTENTION TO THIS TINY, UNPROFESSIONAL CATERING ESTABLISHMENT.
I INVITED A FRIEND AND WAS VERY EMBARRASSED!
IF THEY CAN'T BE PROFESSIONAL ABOUT SUCH A SEEMINGLY HUGE EVENT...... (THEY POSTED THERE WOULD BE MUSIC, DANCE AND EATING COMPETITIONS, TALENT SHOW AND GAMES AND MEAL GIVEAWAYS).
NONE OF THAT WAS THERE. JUST A TINY CATERING STORE.
THEN THEY POSTED THE EVENT WAS "CANCELLED" ALSO, AFTER I COMPLAINED.
I PERSONALLY WATCHED THEM TAPE THE NOTICE TO THEIR DOOR.
I TRIED CONTACTING THE ORGANIZERS SEVERAL TIMES, AND RECEIVED NO RESPONSE.
IF THEY CAN BE SO UNPROFESSIONAL WITH THIS SO CALLED "EVENT" THAT COULD HAVE BEEN A GOOD MONEY MAKING EVENT FOR THEM, THEN WHAT ELSE WILL THEY BE JUST AS IRRESPONSIBLE WITH??? ........ PERHAPS YOUR EVENT THAT YOU NEED CATERED???
WHY TAKE THE CHANCE OF BEING DISAPPOINTED?
STRONG WARNING!!!! -----...
Read moreThe portion sizes are disappointingly small for 34$. There was more pounded yam than there was meat and I asked for the mixed meat. For that I got 3 cow feet without bones and 3-4 quarter coin sized pieces of tripe and two dry small chunks of goat meat. There was also barely any Egusi. When I order from places like Festac NYC I get a full bowl of Eguasi with lots of juice and that is 6.00 then I can get mix meat for 12.00 and when I get my bowl of mixed meat it is full with a LARGE slab of tripe the size of my palm, cow foot, bone included, pieces of fish and 1 chunk of goat. Also a large helping of pounded yam. The takeout package that Divine catering has reminds me of a rather small school lunch. The pros is that you can change your spicy level though, which is nice. The cow foot had a good texture and the tripe was tender and easy to chew. There was an off smell though, different than what I am accustomed to when...
