Review Choukouya Resto Bar - Cleveland

I had a really good meal and drinks on my first visit. The bartender let me know what drink specials are available. She was also very knowledgeable on the menu. She found out what I did not like to eat and gave me recommendations based on my taste.

The food was amazing, customer service was phenomenal, EJ and the band was crazy good! The band played the best of the best! EJ sang his entire tail off! Hit every note! Atmosphere was phenomenal! Crowd was fun and dancing was great! I had a time last night!

Amazing! First time there - I will be back!

I may be use to one type of fufu But to me this one is par to less than average, talking to the first guy he said it was made from boxed mash potatoes and it tastes like it was. The second guy looked a bit offended when he addressed the issue and I said boxed mash potatoes and I didn't like it. He exclaimed in a polite way that it was yams. I expressed that it didn't taste as such, he brought me a second one to no surprise still tasted the same. The sauces were amazing, which I suppose is what really counts when eating fufu. Still I believe the first guy based off taste and texture.never the less I had the rabbit and my boyfriend had the catfish. Rabbit is a hard meat to cook so it was a little dry but the flavor was delicious. Catfish was perfectly fried For me the prices are a little to high end for what you get with everything AL la cart But I understand the concept of wanting it to be a fine dining place. I see the potential and hope that this place gets more business. They deserve a couple resturants ( in my opinion if they drop the prices or at least add some veggies to certain dishes) then it would be worth an80 dollar check for lunch. The service was excellent I do not understand being charged a check out fee on top of taxes. But hey make your money!!!! You just won't be getting mine as often as id like. I hope that no one reads this as a bad review its not intended that way Just one persons honest opinion.

My first time going to an African restaurant. It was a Friday night and they had live music which was way too loud for me. I brought the food back to my hotel room. I must say the lamb chops were delicious.

Amazing vibes. The band was excellent, spacious venue, lots of people enjoying themselves, we danced, the food was authentic & flavorful. I look forward to coming back. Our bartender was Awesome & the life of the party. I also enjoyed the lamb.

Great atmosphere and staff is helpful since it was our 1st time eating cultural comfort food. Egusi & Efo riro stew was mouth watering with fufu! Food rich in flavor perfectly and we enjoyed eating with our hands. We’ll be back! & I’m spreading the word

The best food man talking about the fish and the lamb chops wow is really good love it I’ll be there often

Amazing service, authentic African food. Amazing atmosphere. Alex is one of the best bartenders I've ever had. Meat pie & the rabbit we're amazing

Fun, flavorful and fresh blend of West African flavors. Literally something for everyone. We had the meat pie and choukouya soup with lamb as appetizers. Then the scallop dish, and chicken yassa. Both were excellent. The scallops were cooked perfectly and so tender and flavorful! We also got the plantains. Would go back again. Restaurant was beautiful, but strangely was empty for primetime on a week night. The open sign out front was burned out and we questioned whether they were open or not. This might be driving away customers

Every time I come here the food, atmosphere and service is amazing. I always recommend this restaurant to people looking for a phenomenal meal. I have taken a number of people to eat here all with varying dietary needs and pickiness and always hear how delicious their meal was. A top pick for me and my family.

Beautiful restaurant. The Nigerian Young Adults in Cleveland hosted a mixer here in November and it was a wonderful location. Food was really good but the wait was quite long but that could be attributed to the large crowd we had. Overall wonderful experience.

Came for the first time for a birthday. Food did take a little while but it was worth the wait. The picture below is the whole red snapper fried it came covered in diced onions and tomatoes. It was the best fish I’ve ever had.

A friend invited me here on a Friday night to see his band play. I took my 6 year old nephew. We had a great time. The ambience, the customer service, food, drinks, EVERYTHING was amazing.. I had the lamb chops w/ vegetables (really nice sized portion) and a Tequila sunrise. I took my leftovers home and made some rice out of my cabinet with it the next day.. My nephew had chicken alfredo (his favorite..lol), and sprite, he loved it! The only bad thing I can say is it took a waiter a little while to come to our table, but I let the hostess know and she sent someone right over!

My first time trying Authentic African food and I wasn’t disappointed. Drove 40 mins to get the food! Will be back to try other menu items!

Excellent blend of west African Foods. Great music in the background. Food taste soo good. Visiting from Fort Lauderdale and I will come back 10X
