I recently tried the Jollof Spaghetti at Kings Pride Food and it did not disappoint. The portion size was incredibly generous, the container was packed! The spaghetti had that perfect, authentic Jollof flavor (spicy and savory), and it wasn't dry at all. It came with a great side of sautéed cabbage/veggies which added a nice crunch, plus an egg and meat which made it a complete, filling meal. It definitely looks good and tastes even better. If you’re looking for hearty, no-nonsense comfort food, this is the spot. Highly recommend!

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Delicious! My first time trying and absolutely going back! To try some other options! Please be gracious as I had the opportunity to talk to the owner and chef! Who's super sweet and she is a party of 1! I had the jollof rice combo w/ chicken came with cabbage and plantain! I love spice she made it mild next time I will ask for the full spice! And the puff puff great had a few literally straight out! And yes they're this crispy and chewy texture with a hint of sweetness! Wish had maybe ordered some kind of side of sauce to push them either way more sweet or savory! But will have them again for sure! Also the portions are huge solo I now have food for 3 days!

We had a wonderful experience dining here for brunch. This is an authentic Nigerian restaurant! Not a fusion or pan African style. We had fresh yam, egg, and pepper sauce. The owner is kind and attentive, would highly recommend for anyone in the area!
