My wife and I came here on a Friday night and had a wonderful meal and experience. We had the suya and jollof meals as well as a samosa. We got to try a side of the cabbage and well which was super good. Everything was so good and well prepared. We also got the chai and hibiscus tea which both were awesome. Very nice people and great service, it was are first time and we will definitely be back.

This was my first time trying any kind of African food and not only was the food delicious but the staff were so friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend this place. The portions are huge so come hungry!!

I was really impressed with this place. I ordered the stewed chicken with fried plantains and rice for my sides. This reminded me of a creamed chicken dish my grandmother used to make. The saltiness of the chicken worked well with the sweetness of the plantain and the rice was good too. I would like this dish more in the $14.99 range rather than $19.99 but the guy said they do lunch specials where the prices are batter. The food itself was excellent though.

So I went to Foodateria Kitchen again this evening. They specialize in upscale Kenyan & Nigerian cuisine.
Also, they do have 8+ vegan / vegetarian options as well. Ya’ll the place is straight
The service and food is absolutely exceptional. It’s a must try. It’s where WyCliff’s Kitchen use to be in the northeast side of Columbus.

Customer service was great, very friendly and welcoming! The coconut soup was so rich with flavor. The stew and goat was delicious! I also purchased hibiscus tea, and ginger tea both were bold in flavor. I highly recommend and I definitely plan to come back again.

We ordered yesterday and the food was delicious. The gentleman that greeted us at the front was very nice and chatted with us about the area as we had just moved in. We ordered a samosa, egusi with fufu, and jollof rice with beef and chicken. The meat and jollof was very tender, and well flavored. The samosa was very tasty and my picky daughter even tried it and asked for more. The egusi was a dish I had never tried before and was pleasantly surprised at how delicious it was, and the flavor was just as delicious the next day when I ate it for lunch. We will be returning customers!

This is probably my 100th time coming here with my wife and the food NEVER disappoints. From the samosa, to the chai tea with oat milk (my wife is lactose intolerant) to the efo riro, to the fish, the food is top notch. A 10/10 EVERYTIME. Food is always fresh (made to order and doesn’t take too long).
Environment is very friendly and clean. The owners are very friendly they’ve actually become family. They’re very accommodating, parking is also very available.
Overall I highly recommend coming here. You won’t regret it. The pictures should tell you everything you need to know. Tell them Providence sent you.

I offered casual food and catering food. The casual food is usually ready in under 30 minutes sometimes 5×10, sometimes 15 depending on which order. The catering food is ready and usually at least 30+ minutes depending on how big to order it could be as long as a day like if you order something like a turkey you have to order before you order through the website. Are you coming person and pay or it could be something like something that wasn’t batch cooked in the back and because of that it has to be made from scratch and I could take an hour, maybe even two hours so that’s why it’s always best to check if I would order this today how long would it take to be ready and naturally you get a feel for the menu everything is delicious highest quality.

My husband and I dined at Foodateria this evening with a group from church. I have never before eaten at a traditional African restaurant, and I’m so glad we came. The food was delicious. I highly recommend the samosas and the karanga ngombe (beef stew). The chef and her son are so friendly, hospitable, and hardworking. Highly recommend!

It was the perfect choice for two of my Ugandandan “grandsons” birthday dinner! The samosas were THE BEST I have EVER eaten! The goat stew was superb. Two of the guys ordered the fresh tilapia that looked scrumptious and was beautifully plated! The Hibuscus tea was fresh – and refreshing and Gideon said it is also “heart healthy!” I look forward to a return trip!
