Ts Buka

Oh my goodness! This place is a gem. I always get nervous trying different places food because with African food, all tribes cook differently. We saw this place online. It looked really good and decided to give them a try. We were greeted and served in a decent amount of time. They had a great selection of choices and meats to go with jollof and egusi ! I was so happy to see egusi it's one of my favorites. Their jollof was moist and seasoned well, the fufu and egusi was perfect. I even started dancing. You'll know when the food has my heart when I'm dancing while eating lol The plantains were perfect as well. A plus from me! Any time I ever feel like driving to Arlington again, I will be making my rounds here.

Picked up an order of Jollof Rice, with beef and chicken: I was handed a surprisingly heavy to-go container. They packed that rice in there. Nice.The Jollof Rice was amazing: low-simmer spicy, flavorful, plentiful and delicious.The Beef (roast?) and the Chicken Leg on top of the rice left a lot to be desired: they tasted like they've been reheated too many times already.

Food: rice was delicious first time eating this type of flavored rice it was like spicy and Cajun really good and flavorful. Goat meat was a bit hard did not taste fresh but the sauce that came with the meat was finger licking good.Drink: Maltina tasted goodService: Cashier lady was really nice and helped me choose food. Ambiance: Place was clean smelled great. It was quiet at the restaurant. I suggested to put some music on. Or I would recommend to install tvs with some Nigerian music. I recommend to try it out. I will return for more.

I let the cashier know it was my first time trying African cuisines. I would have thought she would have been more eager to explain their menu. I had to pull answers out of her instead of volunteering some explanations of the different dishes. There were no names on the cooked items so it was like guesswork. Food was somewhat flavorful but neither of my 2 meats were edible. Chicken was old, old and so dry I threw it in trash. I couldn't even bite or chew it .... It was tougher than meat jerky. The beef was not edible either, it was like a super chewy, dense piece of old meat that appeared to have been cooked early today but overcooked in the steam pans. So disappointing after seeing all of the online videos of great looking African food and this is how it ends. An expensive waste.

We are always trying new food to get a well-rounded experience of food from everywhere. The staff were very helpful in explaining what everything was. We tried most everything and were very pleased with the flavors of every dish. Some of the dishes were a little spicy for some people, not for us We will be returning for more in the future.

Came into town for a brief visit. Decided to try T's Buka amongst the many choices of Nigeria restaurants that popped up on Yelp. So happy I did. Service was courteous, portions were generous, food was delicious, price was reasonable. Ordered Jollof rice with beef, shaki and dodo (ripe plantain), jollof rice with chicken, and rice and beans with ayamase (designer stew). All dishes were great. Not all jollof is created equal. This one stands above many. Keep it up guys.

First of WOW!Walking in it is visually displeasing to see that it's dirty.There is no organization. Nothing complementary for customers.The cashier had an attitude. Not nice at all. (Young woman)The food is not made fresh. Instead it's left out for hours (evident by appearance)The beef (smelled bad and was so ridiculously tough) The fufu was hotter than the efo I was served and it to was luke warm.This is not a restaurant it is more like a fast food joint and it's not even cheap or affordable.The soda was sour.We received plastic ware that broke because of how tough the meat was.There is no spice level so the efo was wayyy to spicy and they do not give you a warning I ordered the efo with fufu and beef.They give you a metal tray and it reminiscent of JAIL (p.s. I've never been to jail just seen movies)The wrapper on the fufu was crusty at the ends and had a weird texture.I really kept trying to give this place a chance.I will NEVER eat here again. This place was nasty dirty crusty the food was old and tough (pretty sure they didn't even wash the meat)If this is your first time I would go anywhere else.This is an acquired taste.

Small family owned business with delicious food. Patrons took time to adjust my order and were friendly. The costs are feasible compared to most spots. Definitely a hidden gem!

It was my birthday and I wanted to try something different. This place had good reviews, but when I got there I wasn't impressed. The food on the display looked like it had been there a while and there was no steam apparent. I ordered the Jollof rice with chicken. They really gave a large portion of rice and it tasted very good as did the plantains, and gravy on the chicken. But the chicken itself was almost too tough to chew. I don't know if it was old, overcooked, or just tough from the start. Also, the price I was charged was higher than what is posted on their pickup website. The attitude of the servers left a lot to be desired. There was no friendly welcome or a thank- you when I left. I'll try a different location next time.

Tried their soups (okra, egusi and efo riro) and couldn't proceed with the order i intended on getting. Their stew does taste good so I ordered that (with assorted meats) because I felt bad about tasting their soups and not buying them.
