Really nice food, a bit expensive but their foods always come out nice especially since it’s not all African restaurant that can give this same quality of food

Great place. The portion for the Jollof Rice with chicken is huge, but everything I have ever ordered the portion is big. Their prices aren’t as high as most African food places. The taste is also very good and their customer service is also really good. ❤️

Have had authentic egusi soup with pounded yam before, and I wanted it again. Atiga delivered with a generous, shareable portion that was just as my friend had made for me years ago. Ordered delivery and my biggest complaint was the messy packaging (containers hadn’t been wiped down).
If you haven’t had African food before, this is a great entry point to try a staple that isn’t too exotic. Eaten with hands, the pounded yam is a lot like mashed potato but more glutinous. You can dip it and eat the soup with it for a fun experience!
Overall, would definitely order the egusi soup and pounded yam from Atiga again!

I only tried their cassava leaves. Amazing taste but poor portion. 20$ you get a tiny bowl. The bowl looks wide from the top view. it is small in height. it may be filled with small sauce. By the time they add the big piece of chicken there is not that much stew tbh. It comes with rice ( the rice is more than the stew can serve). Those plantains are worth 7$. The chicken also tasted great

Atiga was an experience. Not necessarily a good one, but certainly an interesting one. From the Paw Patrol table mats to the AC that was randomly on on a cool September evening, to the way none of the four menus that our group received were the same (and possibly didn't include all of the same items), to how we were the only patrons in a 2hr window.

But you're there for the food, and the food was pretty good. Not as spicy as I like it, but tasty nonetheless. While we were there, there was a steady stream of food delivery guys, so they certainly appeared to be doing good business via one of the food delivery apps. The portions are also huge, but while it's good I think think I would rather go to Akin's. The food IS good, but it's not the only thing about going out, and Atiga's sole strength seems to be only the food. I haven't even talked about the quality of the service, or how there was no itemised bill. Nevermind all that, the building itself needs at least a lick of paint if only to brighten it up and make it more welcoming.
