Taste of Nigeria is a delightful gem in Houston! 🌟 I visited for lunch and was impressed by the cozy atmosphere and quick service.

I tried the Jollof rice, which was perfectly spicy and flavorful, and the stacked plantains were a highlight - sweet and just the right texture! I also enjoyed the crispy fried chicken served alongside; it was moist and flavorful.

The staff was attentive and even made great drink recommendations! I did wish for a bit more rice to complement my sauces, but overall, it was a very satisfying experience. Will definitely be back to explore more of the menu! 🍽️
