First of all, I called the owner 3 times and he never answered me, so I decided to drive and find jutes leaves. So when I got there, I personally asked the guy if they had jutes leaves and placaly. He told me “don’t worry ma’am, we have everything here.” Also when I got the jutes leaves I asked him AGAIN and he said yes and I even spelt the word so he knows what I’m talking about. So then I bought 8 packs of jutes leaves and I was so happy and came home. I cooked the dish and guess what, it didn’t turn out the way I wanted it to. Usually the real jutes leaves are slimy but the ones he gave me were hard as rock. It was not jutes leaves at ALL. After taking 5 hours of cooking my dish, I just realized that this didn’t taste like the usual jutes leaves I buy. Even my kids who were born in America knew it tasted different. I was expecting my dish to taste so good but it turns that the owner lied. Be careful with what you buy.

Always my go to for Goat, Oxtail, and certain types of fish like snapper, king fish, etc not found in regular grocery store. Food always fresh and reasonably priced. They are family owned and very professional. Thank you for all you do!!

Only issue I had was the price on shelf said $4.99 but the cashier charged $5.99. I told cashier price on shelf $$4.99 but she insisted price is $5.99. Other than that I would give 5 star because they usually have everything I need for my Nigerian wife

Not too pleased with this place, I have been a faithful customer there for months now but Ive noticed each time I go the owner jacks the price up on the item I always purchase. He is extremely money hungry, I wont be back.

Careful with this shop! Prices are not clearly displayed. A lot of price discrimination going on thereAsk of the prices of items before u buy and be sure to check ur receipt since prices could be hiked up deliberately without you knowing.Quite expensive as compared to other African shopsI will not be going back to this place

The owners are always on site and will work hard to make sure you get what you need. I regularly buy meat that is common in Nigerian dishes but difficult to find at the chain grocery stores. They always ask how my family is doing and tell me to wish them well. This is a customer focused store so a little patience is required but you will be served by people who care about making sure you’re happy and come back again.

I will never come back to 2 Fish & 5 Loaves ever again. I have given this place multiple opportunities to redeem themselves. Today was the worst experience out of the 3-5 other times, which were bad, not because of the taste of the food, but the service and portions of food (always a TON of rice and an itty bitty portion of meat). I ordered and he said it would be ready in 30 minutes. Since its never ready in that time, I got there an hour later after traveling 30 min to get there. The lady had no clue what I was talking about when I said Im picking up my two to-go meals. Her husband then stated he would begin making the food and it will be a few minutes. I waited 5 minutes and left. The customer service is ridiculous. Im not giving this place any more chances.

Owner has a menu with pricing however when you go to pay he weighs the food and adds additional pricing??? He says itll take 30 minutes yet never has the food been made within 30 mins, on multiple occasions Ive went 45-1hr after ordering and the food hasnt even begun to be made which will take another 25 mins while your waiting
