I had been wanting to try this place since it opened and honestly I was disappointed my first experience here. I purchased the lemon iced tea, which was not good. Ended up purchasing hibiscus tea after searching their website and saw it was offered in cups although it is not on menu. We purchased the Yassa with goat meat and chicken jollof. The wait was about ~20 mins and the jollof came out first. Although the person I was with did not immediately eat, the food was rather warm, not hot and looked almost as if it had been sitting out. The chicken was dry. I received my yassa with rice and the portion was not worth the cost at all for either meals. The meat was so very tough I couldn’t finish and they were very small with majority having fat on it (which I don’t eat). Mostly my meal had onions than anything so I ate that with white rice. We also purchased fufu. If I did not enjoy African food prior to this experience, I would not be intrigued to eat African cultured food again. Paid around ~$55 and no receipt was even asked to be given. Meanwhile leaving, the owners plate were filled with huge portions of food. Although the owners were very kind, I honestly will not return and I am saddened I did not enjoy this experience.

This was my first time trying African cuisine and I must say I was not disappointed. The oxtails were so tender and flavorful. I absolutely loved the cabbage, vegetables and rice. Everything was seasoned perfectly. This was truly a good comfort meal. I can’t wait to try the egusi and fufu next. Great experience here and great service as well. Thank you! I will definitely be back! Also I ordered takeout and my food didn’t even make it home lol.

This place is WONDERFUL. If you’re looking for affordable African Food .. THIS IS THE PLACE! EVERY THING WAS GOOD, FRESH, AND HOT! They even have specials only thing to me is that they need to add a little more food to your plate but other than that it’s AMAZING !

Authentic West African( Nigerian) food. Way better than the place across the street( IYKYK). The egusi was warm and flavorful. The jollof was spicy and savory. Very good.

Check out ‘Afrishoppi’ – it’s like a home away from home with amazing food. The staff was so inviting and welcoming that they helped explain our meal to us and the customs of how to eat it. Their dishes are packed with flavors that’ll unlike any other ethnic food I’ve ever had. The staff, food and just overall experience made it all worth the money. It’s a 5-star spot for sure! Make sure to stop in and check the two sisters who own the resturaunt if you visit Jackson, Mississippi.

Food was terrible, first of all it’s a hair salon. You have to call in an order and pay before you even get your food. Waited over 30 min to get it and when I did the plantains I ordered was cold, the egusi was so watered down with only a little bit in there with two big beef pieces that was NOT tender, I didn’t get fufu I got something else. It was terrible. Everything. Do not recommend .
