One of my favorite Nigerian restaurants in NYC. I recommend the Jollof rice, ogbono, esgui, okra stew, mixed meat, snails, shaki & goat meat. They have palm wine too. I love this place & recommend this place over the over hyped Lagos Nigerian restaurant in the city. It’s always good food & good vibes here. ??Parking: Plenty street parkingWheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible
I don’t know if it was because I ordered late but, the fisherman meal tasted old, like the meat went bad, I’ve ordered before with no problem but I’m not trying to get sick!

I mean, first and foremost I can’t stop emphasizing how much revitalizing the food is after couple of drinks. The Staff is so friendly and accommodating, Specially mama Rabe, she’ll have you feeling like you’ve just discovered a brand new mom that knows exactly what your stomach need lol. I definitely recommend to check it out.

I’m a first generation Nigerian woman in America, and this place feels just like my parent’s house or like one of the African parties I grew up attending. The food is also very good. I tend to compare it with Accra Restaurant in Harlem. If I had to choose between the two; I would choose African Pride because it feels like a safe haven for Africans and First Gens.
The best place on NYC that serves Nigerian food,customer service is also really great. The women who work here are always so helpful. I’d you’re looking for a place with good efo riro, or efo elegusi, this is the spot for you !Their okro is also really good , the Jollof rice has a real Smokey taste. The wait for food sometimes might be about 20min , because they have to prep it , but it’s worth the wait.They also do catering services, where you can order food in bulk.Parking: Parking is a little difficult in busy days and hours. They only have street parking.
Used to be good. Lately the salt is too much and the food doesn’t seem fresh anymore. Did they change chef?

I frequent here but lately they are starting to fall off. I don’t know if they changed chef or something but too much salt in the food. It’s a shame. They used to be good. I had high hopes for them.
