Mama Africa Restaurant in Barnet

Excellent environment, friendly service great menu choices and really decent food and at affordable price will be coming back what lovely restaurant good food and music

I went out for the first time since the corona lockdown with my friends and I must say I was impressed by how quickly this restaurant was up and running. They had everything we ordered for and food was supern and the lifeband with a sax man and drummer was beautiful. we ended up staying all night....

Volé a Londres el viernes con la familia y salí con mi esposa e hijos. Tuve una gran experiencia. . . Auténtica cocina africana. . . verdaderamente en casa desde casa. Gran ambiente con buena comida. Muy ocupado con Afrobeat los viernes y sábados.

Llegué a las 5:00 pm de un sábado y el ambiente era vacío, la puerta de entrada parecía como si la hubieran pateado. Pedí sopa de okoro y Amala, sabía que estaba hecha hace una semana. El proyecto de ley no reflejaba el nivel de la cocina, pero lo que me molestó fue que me cobraron 3 por una lata de Fanta, incluso para los estándares pre brexit es un poco exorbitante. El establecimiento y la gestión necesitan una reforma seria. Le hubiera dado un 0. 5 pero esa puntuación no existe.

This restaurant should come with a red warning! Don't even know where to start from. To start with, the place seemed dead. Like the previous reviewer, we had to announce our arrival. This was where the alarm bells started ringing. Let me quickly cut to the food, it was the most expensive Nigerian restaurant I've ever eaten at and easily the worst. The staff were clueless, at £18 for grilled fish, i thought you'd at the very least offer plantain AND yam. It was plantain OR yam. I had to tell them tht their portions had better be generous, portion was meagre, the plantain was overripe. The suya had bones. Who serves suya with bones? it was obviously asun meat passed off as suya with a DUSTING of suya spice. At £12 a plate, i felt like weeping. Asked for fried tilapia with fried yam, they brought tilapia drenched in stew with rice. The food was so bad i asked to speak with the chef. they kept saying the chef would come out but never did till we left. i probably wouldnt mind if it was pricey but was value for money. Only positive element was the fresh croaker fish. it did taste fresh. next time someone recommends a restaurant, i'd rather go somewhere i've tried and tested. never again

I just had a meal at this restaurant and I am compelled to write a review. Arguably the worst dining experience of my adult life. The food was a poor representation of Nigerian food. My efo riro was bland, had an overwhelming stale tomato taste and definitely not fresh! The pepper soup was at least fresh but not tasty at all .The hygiene level is below par, it took a whole for them to clean off the mess at the table near us. Un used furniture also hanging in view.The customer service was poor, we had to announce our presence and asked if the place was 'open' . I'm never quick to give a business a poor review but i cant help myself in this case.What a waste of my £62 . (2 adults)
