The Jersey City Delivery & Takeout Directory

"Our favorite dish at Citi Grill, a West African spot in McGinley Square, is the extremely tender michoui lamb that’s served on the bone with a side of plantains. But no matter what you order - delivery is available every day from noon-11pm - you’re going to get a lot of delicious food for around $15." - matt tervooren

Citi Grill - Review - Jersey City - New York - The Infatuation

"Citi Grill has a couple small tables, but this West African spot in McGinley Square is best used as a delivery option when you want something with more complex spices than a plain slice with red pepper flakes. Our favorite dish is the salty, extremely tender michoui lamb that’s served on the bone with a side of plantains that melt when you bite into them. But no matter what you order, you’re going to get a lot of food for around $15." - Matt Tervooren

Absolutely Delicious. We really enjoyed our meals. We got the Thieboudienne ( fish w vegetable , had wondeful flavor / excellent ) and also the fish with acheke (fish w grated cassava , flavorful totally delicious). We also got the bissap ( sorrel juice ). I enjoyed all the flavors and we really enjoyed all our food.

Serving pork as lamb is truly misleading. The food was disgusting. Ham hocks were used in place of lamb meat in my cassava leaf dinner. The meat was fatty and had a burnt scorched taste causing the cassava leaves to taste HORRIBLE. The plantains weren't ripe. The hibiscus juice was the only good thing. BAD BUSINESS this place is nasty.

Delicious, we ordered a whole grilled Tilapia with Joloff rice and also lamb on the bone with vermisselle and both dishes were absolutely delicious we cleaned our plates. The staff was very warm and welcoming and the portions are very generous. I can definitely recommend this restaurant.

Awesome African Food! It's so difficult to find such an extensive palate! A taste of Senegalese Cheb and Joloof rices! A hint of Moroccan dishes. Fresh grilled lamb! So exotic! I was thrilled!!! The staff was so pleasant and helpful when I was trying to decide what to eat! I just about purchased one of everything!!! Hidden gem it is! Try it out! A Great experience! And I'm so thankful that I don't have to go to the city to get my foodie vibe on! LoVed it!
