SO EXCITED to have found this restaurant! Their egusi soup and fufu are super tasty and my friend got the stewed goat and jollof rice – also delicious. It’s the most authentic and flavorful African food I’ve had in California. The staff is helpful and friendly, and there’s lovely African art on the walls. Can’t wait to tell my friends and go again!

Golden Safari Nigerian Restaurant offers flavorful, authentic dishes that delight the palate, showcasing the vibrant essence of Nigerian cuisine. However, the portion sizes feel modest relative to the price, resulting in moderate value for money. Service, while adequate, lacks warmth and engagement, with staff appearing somewhat distracted. As an observer, I suggest the restaurant enhance the first-time diner experience by proactively introducing signature dishes, such as jollof rice or egusi stew, to highlight their culinary strengths. Improving portion generosity and training staff to provide more attentive, welcoming service could elevate the overall experience, ensuring customers leave satisfied and eager to return.

Eaten at Golden Safari a few times and it’s always very very good. I always get a Egusi with chicken, fufu, okra soup with chicken as well and jollof rice but this time I also got plantain and every single thing was spot on. I’m so happy that it’s halal food and I can enjoy the deliciousness of other cultures.

Again, your food is so DELICIOUS!
We saw the owner on KTVU Morning News recently being interviewed regarding Hatward Restaurant Week. Her presentation was fabulous. Its important that food be created by those who represent the food; culturally speaking. Although the spices, meat and vegetables are not directly from home, what is imported makes the dishes delicious.

My husband and I had Jollif, Egusi and Efo-Riro w/Goat.

NO COMPLAINTS FROM US. We loved the food, the hospitality and the cleanliness of the location.

We will be back.

First time trying Nigerian cuisine. Amazing. Waiter was helpful in guiding me to order Ebo Riro soup when they heard me order Fufu with nothing to dip it in. The GOAT was amazing. The Jollof rice was so flavorful. The chicken was also good but the GOAT was the star. Everything was so flavorful not overly salty just seasoned to perfection. I would definitely return here and am so glad I gave it a try.

I never leave google reviews or review anything but LET ME SAY this food was AMAZING , I was intrigued by Nigerian food and wanted to start with fufu and egusi and it did not disappoint !!! I called around 6 placed and order and they were so accommodating!! They held my food until 10 minutes before closing and were so kind about it , prices are very reasonable egusi includes fufu and very well portioned , more than enough to make you full !! The piece of beef in my egusi was so tender loved it , yea this is the place .

My philosophy is simple. If the chairs r empty dont eat there. I come 1ce every other week to order food to go but while my food is being cooked, i order another meal “for here” to eat while I wait. I even order puff puff. For 1 person I can say I spend quite well. They brought me my food to eat at my seat by the glass entrance door. 10 mins later i finish my food but my to go meal still isnt ready. I wait. 5, 10, 15, 20 mins and i start to get uncomfortable. From my table by the entrance, Im looking at the slim tall girl at the counter who took my order waiting for her to give me a cue that it’s ready since they didn’t call but she kept avoiding eye contact. U cannot make this up. The air wasn’t right. After bout 25 mins wait, still no food. I see some1 come from outside, walk up the counter, pick up their food and walk out then I said let me go to the counter and ask about my food and they tell me…..my food has been there…but they refuse to inform me. They know I’m in the restaurant, they knew where I was but refused to let me know my food was waiting for me at counter I spent $53 and my food has gotten cold, they didn’t Inform me. I ask y???She said she didn’t want to bother me from eating. I finished the food 20 mins ago. In my mind: how many mins does it take to eat. I was waiting for about 25 mins for my “to go” food and it was getting cold at counter the entire time. The owner went on to say “it’s African culture for me to come pick my food”. In my mind I’m like b.s. cause in thinking what shes really saying is African culture is “no traffic lights” just chaos and disorder. Im from east coast. I’ve been to many African spots. Even here in Oakland theres several including a Liberian spot, when your food is ready they alert u. What us this nonsense shes telling ne here. I spend too much for that kind of treatment. I broke 1 of my rules. After she said her part of the story I gave it a day or 2 but i still feel violated so I’m refusing her excuse or apology or whatever it is so I decided to share my experience. I refused to put my money into a place that what me to accept mediocre is African culture. Im not asking for exceptional,.I’m not a narcissist but just dont treat me bad.

Take out portions are ridiculous. Ordered the egusi and there was hardly anything in the container. So disappointed because I would have returned to patronize again the next day. Perhaps portions are better when dining, but not gonna return to find out.

I went to go try the egusi soup. It was a good but the fufu was a little sticky/wet. The egusi soup was very good. There were people sitting in there that were really loud and their voices were echoing, so it made it extra loud in there.
Not really service with a smile, but the food is good .
