Our Guestbook
“ My experience here was great. I ordered egusi, fish and pounded yam—it was excellent. Not only was it palatable, it was hot and I received my order within 5 to 7 minutes after being seated. The owner was very pleasant as well. I’ll definitely be dining here again. ”
“ We were in town for a wedding and people recommended Wazobia for us. From a view of a Nigerian that stays in Chicago with a lot of Nigerian kitchens, I guess wazobia is good for to-go only. The place is not up to standard but the food is good and tasty. The wait time is very poor too. The owner is very nice and polite. ”
“ Everyday breakfast, lunch and dinner plus catering during multiple parties, I've been eating from this restaurant for years and will never grow tired of their food. This is the party food I look at forward to ”
“ Authentic & Fresh Nigerian food. Most orders are made from scratch so I recommend calling ahead to place an order to allow time for preparation. And especially for Moi-Moi, call early before they are sold out for the day. They never disappoint when I'm craving Nigerian food. ... ”
“ I love the taste of the food. I had ordered a chicken dish and I received a leg-thigh piece with little meat and the meat that was on the bone was tough like beef jerky. I don't like that part. I have ordered the same food again but with fish, the fish was better. This is more like a greasy spoon hole in the wall type restaurant. Nigerians from all over the country when they come into town know to come here when they want to eat true Nigerian cooking. ”
“ Delicious Jollof! Quantity is very Good! The giat meat is on point! Love the real egusi flavor not fatty! Thanks so much! Will be ordering again! Even my American friend enjoyed it! Keep it up! ”
“ Jollof rice and goat stew was on point! Very sweet! It was real party Jollof. The Egusi was very rich with large pieces of meat. I wouldn’t suggest the Egusi for those who aren’t ready for a very very authentic Nigerian experience. Fast service too. ”
“ Food absolutely delish! & plenty of it for your . The gentleman that took my order over the phone and greeted me was very kind. ”
