9ja Buka Restaurant

“Food is loaded with generous portion of assorted protein.”

I have been patronizing this restaurant every Saturday for the last 3 months. Up until this last week (besides one incident when I received some less than yummy jollof) everything was ok. I bought an egusi platter with goat meat this past saturday. Its Wednesday afternoon. I went to reheat the leftovers and there were maggots inside. Not sure what to make of that, but I wont be going back.

Aside from the dish coming with 2 very small pieces of protein, my food was dry. No sauce at all and the Eba had no flavor. The ladies professionalism and demeanor can withstand a lot of improvement. The man was nice and offered respect with his conversation. I’m willing to try again. Please add more protein. They cut up in incredible small pieces, robbing us. Smh please do better

Bland taste. Worst African food I ever tried in Newark. Ayamase sauce was not saucing. The rice was cold as hell. The customer service was very poor. DOH needs to come visit this place . Ayamase 0/100, rice 2/100 . Very poor

I’m really disappointed with my experience at 9ja Restaurant on Springfield Ave in Newark. The food was not as tasty as I expected, especially considering the reputation Nigerian food usually has for bold flavor. What bothered me the most, though, was the customer service. The staff were unfriendly and rude, and I was completely ignored when I greeted them. In the food business, basic courtesy should be standard. It immediately made the atmosphere uncomfortable. On top of that, the restaurant had an unpleasant smell and could really use better ventilation. Cleanliness and ambiance matter jus
