My sons and I tried this place for his school project. He had to try a different country’s food and he chose Africa. We found ES African Kitchen on google. The lady there is so nice and attentive. She showed us how to eat the fufu and egusi and she washed our hands before doing so. She even provided smaller plates so that we could try each other’s food. I’m unsure of what it should taste like so I cannot really say if it was good, bland, etc. I will say it was worth trying something new and I will recommend it to anyone wanting to try African dishes.

I had the absolute best jollof rice and oxtail from ES African Kitchen! I’ve tried jollof rice from across the diaspora, but this one was truly next level; hands down the best I’ve ever had. Every bite was pure heaven. The vegetables had the perfect crunch, the rice was bursting with rich flavor, and the oxtail was melt-in-your-mouth tender. Yes, there was a bit of a wait, but honestly, food this good is always worth it. The sobolo was the perfect complement , a beautifully balanced blend of hibiscus and ginger that hit all the right notes. Please do yourself a favor and support this amazing business. You won’t be disappointed!
