During my recent visit to the restaurant, I indulged in a delightful meal featuring perfectly cooked red snapper, accompanied by a flavorful serving of black-eyed peas and fragrant jollof rice. Each bite was a burst of savory goodness that truly tantalized my taste buds. To complement the meal, I savored a refreshing hibiscus tea that added a delightful floral note to my dining experience. Everything was simply exceptional, and I can’t wait to return for another round of such
amazing flavors.

AMAZING vegan/vegetarian spot! I had the vegan peppered curry, fried sweet plantains, and jollof rice. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. It was my first time trying it and this will definitely be my first stop next time I’m in Memphis. Highly recommend to anyone, vegan or not!

I ask for lamb chops. The picture is what I received. It were bones and fat neat. It was seasoned, for to go into there stew looking item. I was given the scraps but no $25.00 lamb chops. When I took it back, he kept $10.00 due to I left the sides at home. We did not eat any of the food. We threw the sides away the next day
.we would have wasted another $10.00 taking them back. It appeared he need the $10.00 more than he need a return customer

I love the esthetics! It’s warm and inviting. I didn’t know how to proceed to the counter as the cashier was socializing, but he was extremely friendly so it was understood. I’d rather a “hey long time no see!” Type of vibe like that. I’ve had the egusi long ago and it had a chemical taste so I was afraid to try it again, but I remember trying the fish back then and how much my son loved it so I only ordered the tilapia this time. The fish was good and what I saw in the food holder looked delicious. I’d definitely come back and try additional dishes. The plaintains I wish was smaller and crispier. I’d get to the middle and it would be just slightly undercooked for my likingl

This is a gem of an African restaurant! The staff are so friendly and helpful! I highly recommend the vegan saka saka (spinach dish), okra, peanut- butter stew but only if you’re not allergic to peanuts, fufu (akin to a slightly chewier form of mashed potatoes) and the hibiscus drink. There’s a free parking lot.
I would return when in the area.

Bala’s Bistro is an amazing experience and vibe. Then, on top of that, the food is amazing.

The first dish i was introduced to was the “Salmon Wrap,” and it was amazing.

My current personal favorite is “Chicken Shish Kabob,” but they don’t have them every day.

Amazing food! This is the most flavorful and delicious food I’ve ever eaten. I highly recommend the curry potato stew, collards and fufu the flavors are perfect, chef’s kiss. They have a huge variety of vegan options with very generous portions for a great price. I highly recommend this restaurant, they are 10 out of 10!

I order beef fatayas and egusi soup. The eggs I soup was great and we all love it but the beef in the fatayas was bad. You can tell from the taste, I allow multiple people to tasted it, and everyone could taste of spoil meat. I have had fatayas many time from this business and quickly realized they use bad meat on this batch. I support your restaurant despite the overpriced food, so yes I was 100% disappointed. My children ate this mess including other family. If it’s bad just get rid of it, it’s not worth getting anyone sick nor the Reputation of your business. The sauce couldn’t even cover this foul taste of the spoil taste… Unfortunately I had to come back and do an edit on my comment here. One of my family members claimed that’s it was my tastebuds until they got into the middle of this. Smh I can’t believe this is what we was consuming the whole time, which is why it tasted weird. It’s raw spoil meat with rubber in it.
