Naija Restaurant — Restaurant in Newington

This was my 1st time trying Nigerian food so I was looking for a spot that was close to me. I came across this restaurant and decided to give it a try. I go have a seat look at the menu and had trouble figuring out what I should get and the lady there was very nice and directed me to get the beef stew so I order that fried rice and tried to order the ponded yam (which was one of my main reasons for going) they didn’t have that, tried ordering the poundo they didn’t have that so finally she suggests I get Oat fufu so I settled for that.

In the middle of the bowl I was one big piece of bone and a piece of goat skin. After spending almost $40, they got me messed up. Overall the egusi was fantastic and not oily at all, but that piece of goat bone was so disrespectful. No meat. Just one piece of bone. I am not happy at all. And they get away with this because you’re...

My husband and I , come crossed this place decided to call to see what time they were closing. It was two hours before closing so we rushed to get there. first of all the service customer service A+, we only ate Ghanaian food with our friends. First off, the young lady at register was very patient with us in explaining the different types of Meals. And making sure we knew what we was ordering. I have not experienced customer service like this in a long time. Now we got home and started to partake in the food. We have 4 kids who loves spice food. We are foodies. We ordered two Goat pepper soup, five Fufu and 4 beef pie, which was all so delicious. A real home cooked meal that taste amazing. I also ordered a side order of veggie stew, which was also amazing. Because of the warm welcome and the amazing food I would be visiting this...
