The food is great.. The service isn’t. The young guy working there was nice but not the girls. However, I enjoyed the food. The soup was flavorful and I would definitely recommend. But, the portion size for the soup was too small for the price.

I’d never had Nigerian food before coming here. It’s really good! I’ve eaten a lot of different cuisines and this was distinct, not sure what to compare it to other than to say it’s spicy (in a good way). We tried the jollof rice with goat, the meat and sauce it was paired with was very flavorful and the rice had a unique zingy flavor. The other dish we tried was made from yams and was a nice mix of sweet and spice. The pineapple ginger drink was also very good (bottle says from Jamaica). I’d like to go back and try some of the other dishes.

My husband just brought home this Nigerian food and he was quite happy to know this place is not all that far from us. He was very happy with the taste of home, especially some of the delicacies. He did go out of the blue so didn’t order in advance. They make the order fresh so he had to wait an hour (and the place was cold inside) but he said it was worth the wait. I think he got a little carried away on his first visit, considering the bounty he brought home!

I see some ugly reviews about this restaurant on here. I’m so saddened, it’s your own people that would take their time, sit behind their computers and want to destroy you! Let’s support our kind and stop bad mouthing small businesses. No business establishment is perfect. If you feel you didn’t have a good experience with the service, kindly pick up a phone and let them know and give them a chance to get it right before coming here to rant! I tried Olaide’s Kitchen with my family this week, and I can categorically tell you that it’s one of the most tasteful African cuisine I’ve had since my 17 years living in NJ! The customer service is good too. They attended to us fast and the food came out at a reasonable time after we ordered. The place is very clean and cute. My 2 year old daughter enjoyed her Jollof rice, and while we were leaving, she became so fixated to and fascinated by one of the beautiful painting of an African woman hanging on the wall by the exit door.

Took photos and videos for Olaide’s Kitchen on multiple occasions. Great people, an absolute pleasure to work with. Their service never disappoints and you always feel welcome walking into their establishment. Definitely order suya and fried plantains, they were delicious! Check them out ASAP!
