Aria Suya restaurant is known for its delicious suya, a popular West African street food made with spicy grilled meat. Customers often praise its flavorful dishes and cozy ambiance. It's a great spot to experience Nigerian cuisine in a welcoming setting. If you get a chance to try it, let me know your thoughts! The staff was very welcoming ; It takes a while to get your food but I guarantee you it's worth the wait ! Try POMO if you like spice , it's peppered cow

Had my first try with African food last weekend with my bff, and Aria Suya did not disappoint!The server was very nice, and everyone was helpful and attentive. The restaurant had a good flow of people even when we went during off-peak hours.We ordered the Turkey Grizzard with Plaintain, and that was a big hit! The grizzard was tender and not chewy at all.The assorted meat tray was alright, there were some meats that were really good, like goat, ribs, and beef. The chicken was extremely dry though, like earing cardboard. So I would not recommend the chicken at all!Lastly, we had the tomato soup with cow skin and some other meat, that was good but a bit salty for my taste. Joloff rice was very tasty though!Overall, I would definitely come back. The ambiance was laid back, definitely helped to enjoy the food for the first time!

This place was incredible. For my first experience eating South African food, this was the one. Credit goes to my friend Chris for taking my sister and I here. We went in early, so it wasn't busy at all. It was a good time to go before the lunch rush. Our waitress was also very kind enough to make some recommendations of the appetizers and entrees we should try. The biggest thing for me was wanting to try some fufu. So I ordered some spinach with beef soup. To start, we also ordered the suya wings and meat pies.The meat pies were really good. It was minced meat with potatoes and it was pretty flavorful and well spiced. The suya wings were equally as good and you're just hit with a plethora of flavor in every bite. When our main courses came, I was so excited. I've seen how people eat it and I just went for it. They gave you a bowl of water to wash your hands (which was nice!) and I just grabbed up some of the fufu and scooped some of the soup (it was a thick consistency) and went to town eating it. And wow... I was blown away at how spiced the soup was. It was so good. The fufu was a perfect balance since it is plain meal and it just went great with every scoop of the soup. I devoured it. I had to order another fufu for my boyfriend to try when I got home because I really wanted him to experience how delicious it all was.The ambiance was also chill and relaxed, very clean. I definitely recommend this place for anyone wanting a wonderful experience with trying South African food for the first time. I will be coming back!

I came here with my sister and our friend as he wanted to introduce us to his culture and food! The atmosphere was very relaxing and I enjoyed the music they were playing in the background! It had me dancing in my sweet, but so did the food! Our waitress was very understanding and answered all of our questions about the food. Everyone was very friendly and seemed to be enjoying my sister and I raving about the food!!I loved the suya wings and I'm definitely going back there again and ordering it! The spice was perfect and the chicken was so juicy!! I loved my beef suya with the tomatoes and the red onion, it just made each bite so juicy! I couldn't stop eating even when I was full. I even ate my leftovers as we were driving back into our area!! I also really enjoyed the spice levels with the efo and having it with the fufu made it so smooth! I also found out that fufu is made from cassava and I already love cassava so we were really excited to eat it in this way! This is my first time and I can't give proper judge as I haven't tried other places before, but my the place was recommended by my friends older sister who really enjoyed the restaurant and so did we!!The drinks were so GOOD. I got a hibiscus juice that had tumeric in it and wow it was so refreshing! My sister got the malt drinks and that was just pure bliss too. Essentially, I loved this place and will bring friends to try and enjoy the richness of flavors!!

Giving this place 5 stars because a large group of us swarmed in midweek for lunch and I'm pretty sure they were not quite staffed for the numbers, but our food still came out in overall decent time and everything tasted delicious. In terms of service, our waitress was doing her best, no complaints. The decor is interesting. Clean and modern, a bit more lounge-ish. I really did enjoy the food.

Aria suya kitchen was the taste of home I didn't know I needed. Being African I have a strong desire to not pay for African food due to over consumption of the cuisine growing up. Lord knows I made an exception for those suya wings and ribs! Never seen anything like that before, it's safe to say you've made a fan out of me. The service was a little slow for my liking but they know what they are doing distracting your bele with Asake and Oxlade, it worked sha I no go lie you!I'll be back to try out more items on the menu, safe to say you made this Nigerian a believer.

So delicious! We got the beef patties, and beef suya and goat suya with jollof and plantains. Everything was so tasty. It was my first time having authentic suya and I just loved the flavor. The jollof was the better Nigerian jollof I've had. Would definitely come back and want to come back later in the evening when it's livelier as well

This is by far the best Nigerian restaurant I may have ever been too. We got here around 7:30pm on a Tuesday evening, and although they closed at 8pm, we got seated with no issues. Our waitress brought over the menus and it was simple and creative. I got the grilled fish, and it came with plantain and spinach. We also got the shrimp skewers to share, which were really tasty. The food did take a little while to come out but it was worth the wait. Overall, the staff was polite, the restaurant was clean and didn't smell like food and the food was great. Now, my drink, the sneaky link, was straight up sugar but, everything else was so great that I didn't mind.

Very clean establishment with friendly service. They start you off with complimentary sauce and plantain chips that were so flavorful! Now onto the food- I've always wanted to try pounded yam with stew and this place did not disappoint. They let you do half and half for the stew so I had the seafood okra and egusi with beef. Both stews were full of flavor, and something about the okra texture and the pounded yam mixed really well together! If you've been wanting to try this particular dish, this place is a good place to go! Also really enjoyed the shrimp from the suya meat platter we got!
