The Point Restaurant

Won't be back. My blood sugar was low, ordered chicken salad appetizer & (grilled?) chicken on green salad (was cut up, I couldn't tell. Wasn't hot) , I was told the tickets are taken in order, I waited over an hour? Maybe more? Had a second drink on an empty stomach. Both came at once, appetizer was a side. & was kinda sweet. I sat at the bar, thought it'd be faster service. Couldn't imagine sitting at a table for over an hour waiting for a salad

The food is good & the entertainment is excellent!!. I really like the patio this summer.

I am always on the lookout for a new dining experience. We were going to eat at the Vietnamese restaurant down the street only to find out they were closed. What a lucky break. We drove a few blocks south and pulled in a strip mall and a place called "The Point".My daughter quickly checked Yelp and saw it had good ratings so I said let's try it.We were greeted by a really friendly server who explained the menu. We decided to order all 3 of his recommendations and share. I apologize I can remember the names of what we ordered. However, I can say the huge portions on each plate was more delicious than the other. One dish was a spicy fish dish, one was a combination of spinach and beef and the third was beef in a delicious red sauce. I don't understand "foodies". continue to frequent trendy nondescript restaurants when true 5 star family owned establishments are underserved.

This place had a nice vibe with the music. Great service. Dined in and had the Banku and Tilapia. It was spicy hot delicious!

I'm giving this place 4 starts because 3.5 isn't an option and they deserve more than a 3. Food: Last night I ordered the Wakkye (as that was the only option). I've had multiple west African dishes before, but I'd never had Wakkye so I was excited to try it. Outstanding dish!! It came with both fish and beef, a side of pasta, rice with beans and it was topped with a slightly spicy tomato based sauce. Everything was seasoned perfectly. The beef was extremely tender and the sauce...the sauce was everything I didn't know I needed to try. The fish was tilapia so I gave it to my bf and he thoroughly enjoyed it. There was enough rice and beans for us to split them and still have some leftover. I still haven't quite got over the generous portion size.So why only 4 (really 3.5) stars? This was my third time even TRYING to eat at this place. Service: The first time I went was during posted business hours and they were not open. The second time I tried to go they only had 2 of the 7 dishes listed on their daily board. Both had fish in them and since my child is allergic, we couldn't partake. While I understand running out of food, the least you can do is wipe them off the dry erase board that is there specifically to tell people what's available for the day. I would have wasted a lot less time sitting down, contemplating an order and waiting for someone to come and take it - - only to discover I can't eat. Sheesh. This last time I called ahead. I was told they were closing in 15 min (hence only having 1 dish) and they would accommodate me if I could be there in 15 min at the most. Understood. I got there in 12. I waited an additional 15 min . I don't prefer to be rushed, just to be stuck waiting. All in all I'm not sure if I will go again. It's certainly worth trying if you have spare time and you enjoy venturing outside of the mundane pizza/burger/chicken options.

Stopped in at random, not knowing what cuisine was even served and wasn't at all disappointed. Staff was super friendly and interested in our opinions on everything. Very accommodating to new people.While we were having the menu explained another customer gave his favorite dishes. We went with the customer's suggestions: p'nut soup and the spinach stew, both with rice. Both dishes were excellent.I had the p'nut soup. I would like the soup spicier, because I like my food to hurt me, but it was hearty and a little spicy and delicious. The oxtail was perfect. The tilapia was a nice touch, but it's not boned as I'm guessing the fish is cooked whole. Just a note, not really a negative. The rice was good with or without the soup. The serving sizes were exceptional, even if a bit carb heavy. You won't leave hungry, that's for sure.

Food is delicious ! The Waakye and Banku were both so good, but my favorite was my whole Tilapia. Just the right amount of kick to the spices. Can't wait to go back on a weekend and try the jollof rice. The man who helped me was wonderful. He was SO nice !! I'll definitely go back.

Family of seven had a great time at the Point. The food was amazing and the staff was great. If you have 7, they don't seat you until everyone is there and that was a bit inconvenient. The ambiance was exceptional and the view of the water was perfect. Place is hidden behind the Aldi stadium so prepare to pay for parking (valet or garage). Nothing good is cheap- so remember that.

The price was okay for the amount it came. You can't eat this alone. It's too much. I couldn't even finish half of it. The taste was very delicious. Service was also great. Very small and empty place but lots of people taking out.

Amazing service and friendly staff!! My Dad and I LOVE this place!! The food is always great!
