Very good food and valued. Ambience was just right and the service was good. The wait was unbelievable as most African restaurants do not serve within 45 mins of ordering. Had a very lovely time

The food was fantastic, incredible and I say after eating in most if not all the good Nigerian restaurants in London. I gave a 3 star for ambiance because the lighting needs to be different or dimmer because of the big windows.

The food was absolutely fantastic. I can’t describe it in a way that would do it justice, I can only recommend that you go! I think our entire conversation during the meal was about how good it was, and discussing which friends and family which bring there and how soon we could be back!

Had a great meal food was really nice. Visited with three friends and had a selection of dishes which we shared. Mixed starters were really good. Plaintain crisps very tasty. Had a mixture of main courses. Egusi soup was excellent and well recommended. It was also nice of Inka(?) the owner to sit with us for a while for a chat.. thought that was a really nice touch. Will definitely be coming back and will be recommending Pitanga as a place to go for Nigerian food.
