Hi Mirabel,
Thank you for sharing your feedback on our tasty food.
We appreciate your input about the packaging and will certainly work on improving it. If you have any specific suggestions, feel free to share.
Looking forward to serving you again soon.

Not a bad effort...
I received my highly anticipated package as specified by DPD. My sister ordered this as a surprise as I had a craving for good old fashioned Nigerian food. The jollof rice was a bit too oily and needed seasoning. The efo riro was sadly three quarters cow leg, hardly any other meat inside or the efo itself. The turkey sauce was not very nice, more bone than anything else. The gizzard sauce, sausage roll and moi moi were lovely. So overall, it wasn't bad. I would say the food needs some improving. I was impressed by the packaging of the food and the delivery.

I’m pleased with my first order
I’m pleased with my first order! The puff puff and fish pie were amazing! I also got asun which was very tasty but a bit too bony and fatty for me. Overall, the service was straightforward and on time! I got my order on the advised day, via DPD. Portions are accurate to what was stated. I will definitely order from here again.

Very glad to have come across a company…
Very glad to have come across a company offering such high-quality service. They was a delay with my order due to a problem with the courier but Afrisian compensated for this. The puff puff was a hit in my household and loved the jollof rice, asun and meat stew. The moi moi in the leaf crumbled on heating for some reason, but it could be that I hadn't followed the heating instructions precisely.
All in all, great experience and I'll definitely be ordering again in the future.

Authentic, fabulous tasting Nigerian food!
This is the second time that I am trying food from this company and I am super impressed with the excellent quality of the food as well as the wide variety of choices that are available. Everything tastes very authentic with no skimping on the quality of the products or the meat or anything. Will definitely be trying some more things.

I was pleased with my order
I was very pleased with my order from Afrisian. The items were delivered on time, and were well packaged so they were secure and stayed cool. I loved everything I ordered, but my favourite was the asun. My kids loved the meatpies, they were tasty and just the right size for snacking on. I will be ordering again, and trying out other meals on the menu.

Jollof Rice and salt and pepper wings
I got a Jollof rice and a salt and pepper wings. I was not very confident on how the chicken wings would turn out but they crisped up amazing and was really tasty. Highly recommend both.

Excellent food and service!
I ordered food twice for a party and both times it was a great success. The order process was simple and straightforward, the food arrived on time, the quality of the food was impeccable both times and everyone really enjoyed it! My favourite is the simple moi moi, but also chicken wings, puff puff, meat pies and jollof rice are amaaazing! Will order again and highly recommend 👌 🙂

the delivery and package
the delivery and package - I cannot fault. but I don't understand why a blanket like material was used in the packaging.
The Efo riro was watery. I didn't mind because I could warm it to dry out the water. The Egusi, however, was very disappointing, the beef was morsel size, pretty much none-existent a lot of tripe & kpomo was used to fill out the equsi. Left me with a sense of being ripped off. I would have been a returning client but the Egusi left a bad taste.

Hi Pepperless,
We honestly do appreciate you sharing your honest feedback.
The recycled denim insulation that we use for packaging is a way to keep the food from defrosting faster while in transit.
It's really good at retaining the internal temperature to keep everything cool.
We are always open to improving our recipes, we also understand our style of cooking may not be everyone’s preference.
The Efo Riro and Egusi are cooked almost with the same ingredients. The liquid is there for a reason, it is to help steam the dish when reheating.
All our dishes are based on weight and the quantity will depend on the cut of the meat plus the stew.
I hope this helps clarify your query and that you can give us another chance for you to enjoy the vibes so many of our customers rave about.

Great tasting well made Nigerian soup
The website is easy to navigate . The eforiro soup is very tasty and well made and good value for money.
Delivery is by Dpd and arrives on dates chosen . The owner of the business is very responsive to any issues encountered. Great service and highly recommended.
I have been ordering Nigerian soups from Afrisian for over a year now .

no value for money
small portions of literally everything and not in line with price point
dry jollof rice
efo riro was very salty and full of pepper - one bite gave me heart burn
turkey stew came with more bones than meat
puff puff was bland
the akara was nice and the vegan moi moi was good but the one with fish was not.
highly doubt I will be purchasing again. unfortunate as I just wanted to support an African business.

Hi Ada,
I’m sorry to hear the vibes didn’t quite match the meals you received.
I understand that how we cook is not for everyone, but based on the feedback from our customers, they've expressed that they want more flavour and ideally less oil in their food.
Hopefully, in the future, we will come up with a range that is low in seasoning and less salt for those who are naturally less inclined to eat at that level.
I really hope that you can give us another chance, for you to enjoy the vibes so many of our customers rave about.

Stumbled on the website while looking for puff puff and I’m amazed by the variety of food available.
The food arrived on time and very well packaged. I loved the presentation aesthetics. On to the snacks I ordered; very tasty and tastes like home made food. As mentioned elsewhere please look into making bigger sized puff puff and meat pies. I gambled on buying the akara and it was tasty, spicy enough and not in any way oily. Will be back to buy some more.
