Tasty African Restaurant in Dartford

Ordered items are missing. Foods are not tasty.

Great location in Dartford for quick Nigerian meals

Really really sweet food but a bit expensive.

Honestly the worst Tastys i’ve been to ever .The staff are very forceful with selling food and will make you feel very uncomfortable for both buying more. It is a very unprofessional environment, ordering food takes ages and workers seem to not care. I am also concerned of the hygiene here as i experienced food dropped on the floor and it being still served to costumers.Honestly i wouldn’t recommend here, food doesn’t fast fresh and is frozen in fact you are charged extra to warm up your food in their microwave . Zero stars

Staff still setting up( bringing out food containers, bread etc at after 12pm. 6 people including myself on the queue with 1 staff available to serve! Later, another staff brought some pastries and then went on to serve a customer who had just paid using the menu screen, she then went back inside. Interestingly, she did the exact same thing when she again brought some food out !! Not minding those of us in the queue waiting. Dear management team, please this needs to be looked into, seriously. Also, could your staff start wearing identification badges to enable us commend them of make complaints appropriately, please. Thank you. NOTE: I am categorised as elderly, I am very very deficient in typing and using technology, eye sight not too good; so it has taken me a lot of time and effort to write this. Please, do not just take it as one of those things. May your business not go into bankruptcy, amen.

Just ordered amala and edikan ikong from the dartford branch and I can’t even eat the amala due to the texture as it was hard, and not fresh. It slashed into 2 the moment I opened the wrap. Not tasty at all and the soup could do with a bit of sauce, too dry.

Food was stale, attempt to share this pointedly was perhaps misunderstood as looking for a free meal as opposed to constructive feedback the establishment can use. Certainly NOT going back there again. Feel free to do so at your risk!

Dartford tasty -It is the slowest service ever! Customers should not be served when they are on the telephone. The shop needs to improve on its service.

Great food and an amazing atmosphere

Very tasty(pun intended) and top quality african food. The staff are very professional and friendly. They make me laugh with their cheekiness

Tasty food, very well priced, quick service. PLEASE HAVE A PHONE SO ORDERS CAN BE PLACED OVER THE PHONE.

I’m just getting around to leaving this review from over the summer as it’s important to highlight good experiences. I frequently visit this Tasty as it’s my local and usually have standard experience. For a celebration, I ordered meat pie and puff puff online, but made a mistake on my order with the collection date. Cynthia got in contact and her and Onye were fantastic to help me resolve the issue. The small chops went down well for the occasion. All in all it was great customer service, so thanks ladies. I will be ordering more for upcoming Christmas celebration.

You know what you're getting in an African restaurant 👍🏾

I ordered ofe oha soup with assorted online, and I was really disappointed that I paid £14 for trash it contains ruminants of stockfish and a piece of shaki. You people need to do well by fearing God with what you serve your customers.

Their food is amazing. The puff puff 😍

Name it. You have it there. Fresh meal and the best customer service you would ask for. It's always worth a visit. Trust me Good crowd control and time conscious staff

What a shame!!! I ordered online for a pick up of bulky puff puff for 1:30pm. I got to the store and realised my order was not made. I had to wait till 3:30pm before they made it. The most annoying part of it was when the manager told my sister that the order was ready by 2pm and she had to sell them when she didn't see anyone to pick it up. I must confess that I am highly dissapointment by the dartford tasty team members for their lack of professional etiquette. I demand a full refund for the inconvenience. If there was anything less than 1 star I would gladly give rather than 1 star you dont deserv a star as I am so disgusted by the unprofessional team.

The jollof rice and protein are great but the swallows and the stew are not too great. They also don't have spicy food

Lovely varieties in their menu at reasonable prices.

Delicious food and wonderful staff

NEVER ORDER FROM HERE. I never leave a bad review but every dog has their day. I ordered £30 worth of food from here today hoping it was going to be lovely for me and my partner. The worst food I have ever had in my life. EVERYTHING was cold, tasteless and made me feel sick. Being wrapped in cling film was pointless seen as it had been in a fridge there was no heat to hold. Myself and my partner had 2 mouthfuls of the jallof rice and gagged. From an African restaurant?? The soups and sauces were congealed and had clearly been in a fridge all day or longer. We tried to give it the benefit of the doubt and heat it up ourselves it still tasted vile. We spat it out it was that bad! The meat was either all skin or all fat. Small small chunks of meat. I was embarrassed for them to even call or bring it back. After reading the reviews I fear to even ring seeing as staff are so rude. I love African food and I was so looking forward to it. Moving forward either they need to serve fresh food or shut down. 0 star rating all round.

Second time I’ve ordered food and items have been missing. Why deliver chicken if the rice I want to eat it with is missing

Love Tasty African food, but everytime i order Efo Riro (plain) - there’s always a lot of assorted stuff (meat, fish) in there which i have to sort out every time i buy

This place sell beautiful and healthy African food I enjoyed I will be visiting enough for real their food is in their name.

Food is good but the service in store is absolutely rubbish! I want to support this business but the service needs to improve, orders are nearly always wrong, queues are always long for no reason and it is clear to see there is no order or process in place so the team can function properly. Glad some of the dishes are in sainsburys as it cuts out this mess.

Worse restaurant to order your food in Dartford, food horrible, worst service ever. Ordered hot food and got delivered freezing cold food while staying in a hotel, I called the restaurant only for them to advised to return my call for resolution and never did while I drove to the restaurant to physically show them the food and found its closed. I had to drive Erith (Spices) to get something to eat. Please stay clear from Tasty African food Dartford you will thank me later.

Never pick up the phone always run out of food. Very unreliable place

This jollof gets better and better the opposite way. Smells nice but absolutely tasteless. Chunky swollen rice. For a Nigerian restaurant... if you can't serve a good jollof rice ... close up your store. This is meant to be a signature Nigerian dish!!! Shame

Sadly, they don't seem to have water when you eat here(in a restaurant). Last two visits, no water. Had to buy malt. Glass was dirty, pointed it out. Waiter was polite and explained it was dishwasher mark as well as dust from non usage over sometime. Today, I brought my water. Card machine playing up this time but I came prepared regardless as I had liquid cash. Still keep coming here because the food is very very nice hence I gave a five star rating previously. Now it is going to have to be 3star. Hopefully we can get back to 5 star ASAP please.

First off they intentionally serve cold food so that you will need to pay an extra pound to make the food hot. The staff are very slow and appear not interest the whole time. No observation to the queue so if you are dull and don’t get their attention then good luck to you getting served in two hours. Some of their food are worth the attitude of their staff, the soups are nice the jollof rice is good. The puff puff is amazing I must say it made me fix the bad review I had for them 😁. Just make sure you taste the fried rice though before you buy, they have one too many BAD FRIED RICE DAYS 😣

I’m only rating the restaurant with one star because it won’t let me proceed to write this review otherwise. I have made the decision to not order from here again, the food is awful, the customer service is even worse. I ordered ogbono stew and there was no meat in it, just bones. I didnt even bother to call up about this because I know the staff there are extremely rude and unhelpful. This establishment needs to be closed down immediately, every single branch infact!

The efo riro could do with a little more salt and some more spice. Also the fried rice was very bland. The jollof rice was good but needs more spice.

I called to place an order at the Dartford branch and the individual started taking the order, only to be told that I should order via Uber eats or Just Eat - that they were busy with other orders!! What poor customer service! I like Tasty, but they need to watch their customer service!

The que is ridiculous, and staff can be very rude and aggressive. Stay away!

getting through is always a problem which let's the establishment down...I waited half an hour and then received terrible service I was told just to hurry and come down and see what's there I thought I was ordering from a restaurant clearly not...I do not see myself ordering from this establishment again.

Fantastic local African restaurant

I placed an order on uber eats and two meat pie were missing. I immediately called the restaurant to let them know and a very rude lady picked the call. She said that is the reason why they say we should come and buy directly and not order because they do not trust the Uber eat drivers. If you do not trust them, why do you use them. We pay for service charge and the food is delivered in a nylon bag with no tag or seal. Can the restaurant not pack the food to be delivered well? As if that was not enough, she told me to come to the restaurant to collect the two meat pie. What will it take from you if you have to deliver the missing items ? I told her I was not feeling too well and that was the reason I placed an order. Then she said when next I place an order, I should put in the note that they are owing me two meat pie. I asked if she would also note it because what is the probability of me getting the missing items. She did not say she would also note it. I once ordered four chicken pie and I got four fish pie instead. I had to throw them away because I don't eat fish pie. The most annoying thing is that the staff are very rude and not customer friendly.

Great dishes and authentic African!

I am siting here eating as I type. Forget that the food is 'standard' and we eat here because we have an established palate, the customer service on a scale of 1 to 10 is -3. You will need to be Mother Theresa to have the required patience to deal with. They smile at you while treating you like cargo

Nice food but the service can be a bit of a let down

It says it opens at 12pm but they have kept the gate shut and have over 4 people waiting outside for 35 minutes. It is currently 12:38 and I am waiting because my daughter wants some pounded yam. Horrible horrible horrible service. The lady can see me through the gate and she just ignoring me.

I used to order tasty where I used to live, so it's been awhile and I was excited to eat from this new tasty again but was really disappointed. The food was terribly underwhelming. The egusi soup had no taste at all, the Plantain was soggy and was fried using the oil of the day (meaning you can taste all the things that was fried during the day by just eating the plantain) they haven't changed the oil. I forced myself to try and eat some of it. Just tasted like someone trying to learn how to cook and not good quality. Thanks goodness they ran out of mist things before I ordered if not I could have wasted my money. Atkeastvthe delivery was quick even though I threw 70% of the food away. I rather travel to my old place if I ever crave Nigerian food than order from there again.

Being a long time customer, after waiting over an hour on the queue on sunday, the yam porridge was nothing to right home about , the ewa agoin was salty, your standard keeps on dropping, never coming back again,if I could give zero star I would,what a waste of my time and money.

Cheating on portions food is greasy and when I asked what comes in the food barely get the answer

Food was okay . Service very slow. The mixed quite a few orders. Hopefully this will improve

I would have rated zero stars if there were any. I ordered pounded yam and Ogbono soup through Uber eats about 7pm after driving for 4 hours to London. The pounded yam was gooey and smelly. I contacted the restaurant and was informed by the sales person that the pounded yam was made by her colleague in the morning. She promised sending a replacement. I had to pay again to Uber to have the replacement as I was so hungry. The replacement that came was worse. I have been having stomach ache out of the little I tried to scope with a spoon out of starvation. I poured everything in the bin. It's absolute unfair to reheat pounded yam. It's not doable. We all know it's food poison. This has to stop.

Very nice food and friendly staff

I ordered food today from deliveroo and l was so disappointed. All the food l was inedible as itvwas spoilt. The ogbono had mould on it. My first tine ever but l will never order food from there again. Disgusting 🤢

Puff puff 🤤🤤 also everything else is nice!

Good food. Tastes like the real naija thing. Services can always be better though.

I have never been but know from friends the service is good and food very tasty

They don't know how to cook soups, very horrible Egusi and Oha soup. Should just stick to only rice dishes and meat pie.

Thank you Tasty for making African food available in Dartford. On point.

Food is very tasty but they treat customers differently as first time i went they said there was a £5 minimum and the last time they didn't say that

Tasty Nigerian food at good prices

Very delicious food, varied options and courteous staff. You may have to wait a while though..

My favourite restaurant in Kent for takeaway.

One of the best you can find in london..

I love their food ... they are just really really terrible at customer service

Awful food. Ordered x2 curried goat, one of which was thrown away without being opened! The meat was a horrible, chewy texture. Genuine concern it may have been tongue due to what seem to be ‘tastebuds’. Photos to prove it but unfortunately I can’t attach them.

Tasty Nigerian dishes... Yummyyyyy😉

Very bad customer service at the Dartford "Tasty". They always try to overcharge or trick customers, I almost had to force the lady to give back my money, after I took time checking the price list of my orders. I have experienced that twice and it's so embarrassing as a regular customer. Please try your best to be correct!!!

Ordered food through uber eats. 50 minutes later the uber eats driver calls to say when he got there they were shut and no one is answering the phone. (2hours before stated closing time).

I have been supporting Tasty African restaurant for years but unfortunately the standard of the Dartford branch on Lowfield Road has dropped drastically. The last five orders I have placed at this particular restaurant has been tasteless..these were orders over £50 each time..My family and I had to empty most of it in the bin. My guess is that the food is no longer prepared by Nigerians or people who are familiar with the delicious taste of the Nigerian cuisine. The fried rice was tasteless, the stew was so acidic..it tasted like Tabasco which is a sauce bought in supermarkets..the yam porridge had no taste whatsoever, it was literally yam cooked in red oil with nothing else..absolutely tasteless. It really pains me when you spend so much because you want to eat authentic Nigerian food, only to be presented with food cooked by staff you have employed who have no idea how Nigerian food should taste. Please look into this and improve your cooking please.

The service at Dartford is rubbish most times. They forget to put everything you ordered in your order. You have to ask them for spoons even though its a takeaway. The worst part is the egusi I ordered had particles or something in it. The staff also keep complaining of being understaffed

Great ambience. Good and courteous staff and great Jollof rice.

All types of African food and soups can be found here.

I love the food. Good service and reasonably priced.

Food is alright, hit and miss really. Some days great, other days not so great. They run out of food really quickly too and don’t pick up the phone when you call to find out if they have something before arriving. We bought fried turkey from them and it was way over fried, harder than biscuit. We considered returning it but it wasn’t worth the trip. Their puff puff is really good though.

Food is Ok but the customer service there is appalling. You sometimes have to wait ages with no one talking to you. The place needs better management as any good competition will put them out of business.

Lovely selection of African Dishes

Surprisingly good fresh tasting food even though they are pre cooked and reheated. Was surprised at how fresh and well seasoned it was would go again.

Nice food. Well cooked food. What else shall I say...... good food.

Better than Woolwich branch. Great atmosphere

Great service and good food. Enjoyed my meal there. A small restaurant though-crying out for space.

The food is nice.. service came slow at times

Fantastic. They never fail to deliver.

I've no idea what you are talking about. Where is the Tasty African Restaurant?

The food is okay and official opening time is 12pm, but this restaurant often opens later than 12pm. try at 12.20 or 12.30

Great restaurant for Dinning. African foods style

Extremely beautiful service and food! I love each one of their dishes. But my favourite is the Jollof-Rice.

Great staff and delicious authentic Nigerian food.

What's the point of having a telephone number when you never pick up? On various occasions, I have tried to call in advance to find out if a specific food is available, but I can say only once have they picked up. This is me calling random days and times (total about twelve times) and you have only answered once. And, when I actually make my way there, I find out the food i wanted is not available. Pick up the calls when customers call!!!

Great food! Service could be a bit quicker.

There are no words to describe how awful the food was (we chose to eat in the restaurant). After one or two morsels, I gave up and pushed the plate away. They did not have any diet drinks. The Waiter was constantly on her phone. Very disappointing experience!

Great place, True African dishes. Good customer service too.

As with most Nigerian restaurants, customer service was poor

Some workers are rude there. Sometimes they give you wrong food that you never ordered. I bought fish rolls one time, but it had beef in it! Don’t get me wrong, their food is tasty. But the workers need to be changed to more experienced and friendly people. The workers there aren’t welcoming.

Good food Good place but jeez they can't open on time for good

This is a highly unreliable restaurant. Food is almost always finished by the time you get there and they don't care. They open from 12pm -10pm and what you want is finished by 2pm! The girls never give you a receipt unless you ask for it. Most times they overcharge you without you knowing when buying different food items. Most people don't notice this but this has happened to me several times and then with no apology they'll readjust the total. The other day, they had run out of serviettes. How can you run a restaurant with no serviettes!!! Dont get me started on the waiting times and extremely sloooooow service! This is a typical 'Nigerian' business mentality, focussing more on short term gains rather than building excellent and trusted customer service with a view to long term gains.

They need more staff especially on sundays

Recently received a catering service from tastys and i was very impressed. Service and food was on point. Professional and affordable. Will definitely be coming back. Thank you Tastys.

Nice coffee. Pleasant staff. Food is ok. They could be open longer. 5pm during school and 5:30pm during summer holidays is quite early to close... They also could open earlier.

Great place with great menu and service.

I went in there about couple of hours ago not having any idea what the food was gonna be like, got in the queue a lovely young lady came to serve me I told her that I’m gonna need some help due to I’m not familiar with this type of food she understood and started going through it with me, got the food home eaten it. It was beautiful and the service from the both ladies was 10/10. So Thank you very much for the good experience

You can trust them for their authentic African cuisine. Been back several times.

Excellent food, clean and fantastic service with a smile. Will deffintly come back to the grays branch !

If I could give 0 stars I would... Very rude staff... Not all though.
