Lit African Cuisine by Zee in Lewisham - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I rarely give bad reviews. But this has been the worst service I’ve received in a take away or restaurant. I went in person to buy some food. I asked the lady working there which sides are included in the deal. She was extremely rude and cold, said when your ready call me. I called her again and explained I wanted to understand the menu. She literally just ignored me and left to go to the kitchen. Never got to try the food. It’s a shame because I hear that she just works there and doesn’t represent the owner,but unfortunately this shows lack of care.

Portions are getting smaller, but still very delicious,🤤 Love love love the Jollof rice

We got takeaway, pounded yam x2, egusi x2, beef & fried fish. The pounded yam is not authentic as we are used too, it tasted like flour from a packet. The beef was soo tough, fish was extremely oily. If you want authentic Nigerian food try somewhere else!

Popped by for a late night take away after a recommendation and was not disappointed! Didn’t get to sample the full menu as it was super late but the fried rice with prawns was delicious! Tasted fresh, the prawns were succulent and the service was with a smile. The stewed chicken was ok, not enough meat on the chicken for me and way too hard for my liking but the puff puffs were great both the plain and the Oreo filled ones. Also enjoyed taking in the Nigerian artwork on the walls whilst waiting for the food. I’d like to experience the lounge next door where the menu differs but I’d recommend it here.

Very nice egusi and pounded yam with fish , I’ve gone here a few times but I wish the serving size was bigger, I always have spare pounded yam left over because the egusi size is about a quarter of the container

The food here is amazing. Staff are helpful and kind. Feels like home cooked food. And I’d advice everyone tries the chicken. It is super amazing.

Absolutely lovely food especially their Jollofrice, to the point of me going to get another one but as takeaway. Normally, I get takeaway and get served by Farouk, who is always nice. Today I was served by Bukky in the restaurant part and she was very friendly and polite. Her customer service skills are great. From the food presentation to the interior decor to the taste and to the staff; 10/10 for real. I travel from east London just to get food from here when I’m craving authentic African food

Terrible service, manager rude. wouldn’t serve us drinks or food

The cook is lovely.The food is amazing .Nice presentation and decorations Defo recommended

I never tried African food other than jollof rice rice but decided to try the pounded yam and Eforiro this time It was genuinely the best meal I've had in a while, so addictive I couldn't stop eating it. It was a pleasant surprise for me. The only thing I didn't like, for me they use too much shrimp paste/fish sauce in the meat dish but I will definitely order from here again

Their food was so wonderful. Would definitely recommend

Nice taste of Nigeria dish. Quality food with good portion size.

Hmmm the food was so delicious, much better than I expected.. I definitely need to come back and try other meals

The food was amazing, would defo be having it again! 😍
