“ I came here a whileeeee ago and have been dreaming about it ever since! I had the fufu and egusi with goat meat. SO GOOD so flavorful! It was so much I ate it for like 2 days! I want to try the okra next. ”
“ Awesome food. We got the Jollof rice, chicken, and goat. Nice balance of flavor and spice. Worth the price, especially since it's one of the few restaurants in the area. The atmosphere is perfect for a nice cozy date night, not private but great for one on one conversation. On the last Sunday of each month, I was told it's buffet style from 3pm-8pm, with all you can drink as well. Don't let the outside of the building fool you, this is gold! ”
“ I am from out of town traveling for business so It was my first time ordering and eating at 9Ja Restaurant, so I had no clue what to do or how to order. The owner was so very kind to me and super patient with this first timer! She gave me the menu and asked if I needed assistance and helped me with my order. I ordered the Jollof Rice w/ Chicken and the Egusi Soup with Goat that came with Fufu. She asked how spicy I would like the Egusi soup, I said, “I can handle spicy.” She said, “Are you sure!” I began to question if I really could handle it. So when she finished the Egusi she brought it out for me to test the spice lever, which was such amazing customer service and I really appreciated that. I could handle it a little more spice so she took it back and added more. After all my items were complete she bag everything up and proceeded to explain to me how to correctly eat the Egusi Soup with the FuFu and I’m so grateful she did. The food was absolutely amazing, so very delicious and extremely flavorful. I will definitely be back to try even more delicious items from the menu!! ”
“ 9JA is a wonderful place that brings Nigeria to the Charleston area. While most restaurants have something I’ve had before, 9JA serves flavor like no other. Last day of vacation and praying she’s open!!! ”
“ I was craving FuFu so bad and this place did not disappoint. It's simple you call in your order and they deliver it to you and the elementary school parking lot. It was an interesting technique but it was worth it. We will definitely order from here again. Having a Nigerian American husband that gave two thumbs up on the food was all the co sign that I needed. ”
“ Was in the area and wanted to try something different and I must say....VERY DELICIOUS The flavors were definitely on point. My favorite was the Seafood okra with steamed fish along with the fufu. Stop by and give it a try !! I will be going back for more ... ”
“ We were in town visiting and saw this place on Google. We didn't look at the website so we didn't realize you are supposed to call ahead and pick up but the owner was extremely kind and let us stay and eat there. The food was DELICIOUS and sooo flavorful. We had the fufu and egusi with goat, and the goat was melt in your mouth tender. We meant to take our order of fried plantains hone to finish later but accidentally left it on the table so we will definitely be going back for more! ”
“ The food is flavorful and delicious. The Jollof rice was AMAZING, the plantains were SWEET, and the fish and goat were great! If you want real, authentic Nigerian food, please stop by! The owner was friendly & we will come back to try other items on the menu ”
