Sumptuous African Restaurant

My family and I are visiting LA from the bay and we were looking for African food. I’m so glad we came here first. We had the afang soup, efo riro spinach soup and Jollof rice plate. You get sooo much food!! And huge pieces of meat, we got assorted. We all had to get to go boxes because we couldn’t finish it in one sitting. Everything was super delicious and fresh!!! Larissa took our order and we were so happy to hear that she’s Cameroonian too. Service was quick and there’s ample space to dine in. Next time we’re in the area we’ll come back for sure!

MY HUSBAND CAME HERE YESTERDAY FOR ME SO I WAS ON SPEAKER WITH MY HUSBAND ORDERING THROUGH HIS PHONE SO I GOT THE OGBONO SOUP WITH BEEF & TRIPE AND 2 FUFU'S & A BOWL FULL OF ONLY SPINACH AND IT WAS SO DELICIOUS I ENJOYED IT. THIS WAS MY SECOND TIME EATING FROM HERE AND I MUST SAY IT REALLY WAS DELICIOUS BUT IT WAS MY HUSBAND'S FIRST TIME TRYING IT AND HE LOVED IT. THE FOOD WAS DELICIOUS, THE CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS GREAT THE ATMOSPHERE WAS NICE AND THE TIMING FOR MY FOOD TO COME OUT WAS ON POINT ABOUT 15-20 MINUTES. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. -THANK YOU! FROM: MR&MRS.HENRY! Vegetarian options: THEY HAVE 2 VEGAN FOOD OPTIONS HERE WHICH IS A PLUS DUE TO MOST AFRICAN FOOD SPOT DON'T HAVE THAT OPTION. Kid-friendliness: BRING THE KIDS YES ITS KID FRIENDLY 100% Parking: THERE IS PLENTY OF PARKING THAT SHOULDN'T BE A PROBLEM AT ALL.

Right place to get almost all types of Nigeria meals. Not just that the food taste good, the lady at the reception is great! Was in Cali for a few days, this place was MY SPOT! Parking: Easy parking Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access

I love the food especially when they have puff puff. You should try the jollof rice with turkey.Food: 5/5

The customer service is amazing! They help you pick if you don’t know what to get. The food is delicious, the place is clean, and it is a good portion for the price. Parking: Spacious parking lot!

The lamb was so hard to chew on. The taste was so dry like it was days old not fresh of the day. The amount of oil used it this meal is not suitable for people with acid reflux or sensitive digestive system. I had high expectations based on reviews but was so disappointed on the food and service. They need to get better personal because it was very difficult to place my order when they couldn’t understand what I was saying and the lady taking the payments didn’t even know how to work the tablet. She touched my food with the same dirty old gloves she touched the money and that alone should of been a red flag for me but I still bought the food and spent $60 plus on a meal we couldn’t even enjoy. Completely dissatisfied.

The food at this restaurant is actually really good. But if Katy is working, don't bother. She is incredibly rude. She refuses to do substitutions that the owner has no problem doing even if I'm willing to pay the difference. She treats me like an inconvenience instead of a paying customer. I have been ordering from this restaurant for over five years now and I did not start having issues till they hired Katy. The food is great, but its not worth getting treated like a gum on your worker's shoe. I suggest you train her in customer service before she drives your customers away. I know everytime she picks up the phone and I know it's her, I hang up. I am also actively looking for an alternative restaurant to eat at because it's just not worth it.

This is my go-to place for every time i want to eat authentic nigerian food. Its always freshly cooked and steaming hot. The food is on display in the hot steam tables, but they have other food options from the menu that can be made within 20 mins depending on the rush

This was my first time eating at Sumotous African restaurant and it was amazing! The Fufu and Ewedu/Gbegri with fish was the right amount of spice and very filling. The host was very friendly and explained all the different dishes in detail for me. Overall, very good food, plenty of flavor, and I'll be back for sure.

I placed an order over the phone and once I get there they hadn’t even started on my order yet after 30 minutes of placing it. I patiently waited and my food and it was finally brought out to me and I tried paying the cashier in cash and she didn’t even know how to count bills. I helped her letting her know what she owed me in change and she was still confused. To top in off I get home and the food was cold and it’s the worst taste in food I’ve ever had. It taste like it was days old and fermented. A waist of $80 dollars in just 3 plates. Cook it yourself instead!!!!! Worst food ever and I got diarrhea even when I couldn’t finish my plate and my family couldn’t eat theirs as well.
