The restaurant is located in a little shopping plaza which looks a little sketch at first glance, but I’m giving 5 stars because Amala’s joint was the perfect experience. I’m a fan of Nigerian food and have eaten at about 6 different Naija spots in the Houston area, but their service was by far the best. The first thing I noticed when I walked in was how clean and tidy everything was. Sanitizer and hand soap at every table and they bring a bowl of water with your meal so you can clean your hands. Also, the dining room didn’t smell heavily like food, which was nice since I had somewhere to be afterward. I had Efo with pounded yam and tilapia. Y’all!!! It was soooo good. Perfect level of spice for those that can’t handle too much heat, but enough for those of us that really enjoy the kick of peppers. The tilapia was perfectly cooked. A little crisp on the outside, soft & flaky fish on the inside. The ladies that took care of us were absolutely sweet. I don’t usually rate on Google but I just had to rate on both Yelp and here!!! If you’re still reading stop and go to Amala’s Joint for some bomb food!!

I love this place and the ladies that work here are super nice! I had the egusi and okra soup. Both were super yummy and flavorful! The chicken in the okra soup was tender and flavorful and the beef in the egusi was tender too. I love Nigerian & west African food. The food is full of flavor and I will return! I also love that they play Christian music in the dining room. May God Bless this business! 🙂

OMG! This was my first time trying Nigerian food. I didn’t know anything about African/Nigerian food walking into the restaurant. I didn’t even know the difference between Amala and Pounded Yam or Fufu. The nice lady in front recommended me the Goat Meat Stew and this other spinach dish she mentioned(sorry, I don’t know the name) and OH MY GOD. It was AMAZING. More than amazing! I’m Vietnamese and I try to explore other food cultures and this was the perfect introduction to Nigerian food. Not only did the food taste FRESH, but the ladies and guests were nice enough to explain me some things. The stew and spinach were spicy, BUT I LOVE MY FOOD SPICY. It was sooo flavorful! And the portion size was shareable! Will recommend to friends ✨

My wife and I love food but west African and Nigerian food is something we don’t have in the Bay Area nor all the major cities we’ve explored. When planning our trip to Houston we knew we wanted to get some authentic West African and Nigerian food.

It’s was totally delicious. This is the real abula style. So much like Amalatohsure in lagos. Best Amala joint in Houston.

I’ve been to this restaurant a few times and was never disappointed UNTIL today. The food was delicious as usual, but I was charged $85 for 4 items! Receipt only showed the total, not the individual prices of each dish. Seeing as I travel 8 hrs to frequent this place as is, being overcharged doesn’t sit right. May have to find another spot when I visit Houston.
