The Best-Value Cheap Restaurants In East London

"A hearty plate of jollof rice with beans and plantain is always a good idea from this West African restaurant in Hackney Central. There are plenty of staples like efo-riro and ayamase stew on the menu at Tomi’s Kitchen and, if you’re going rice-heavy, just make sure you get a decent ladle of fried tomato and chilli sauce on top. Together they’re the perfect mix of savoury, salty, and spicy. A tenner or so will go far here but a bag is recommended too. If we come for lunch, we tend to leave with dinner as well." - team infatuation

If I could give this 0 stars I would! I ordered pounded yam, egusi and two drinks off uber eats. Firstly they got my order wrong as the driver showed up with no drinks. Secondly the food was cold as if they took it out the fridge. Clearly didn’t even bother to heat it up. I’m staying in a hotel with no resource to heat the meal. By this point I was very frustrated but left with no other option I started to eat the cold food only to taste nonsense. It clearly had not been fried well, I could taste the tomato (mixed with stew) acidity which indicates it not being cooked long enough. I couldn’t even finish the meal, straight into the trash. Also for the amount I paid (£15.60) why am I getting half of a small container of soup?! I will never order from this place again!

Tasty food, customer service is good portion size is ok too but you have to order a couple of meals to fill you up the only thing. Other than that overall a nice place to eat and has been going for years.

Had the Okra Stew with Pounded Yam — absolutely delicious! The flavours were rich and comforting. On top of that, the service was incredibly kind, welcoming and grateful. Will definitely be coming back!

I just called as I notice on just eat that price have gone up, when calling I asked does the price match the portions and the phone was put down on my ears. I will not be ordering from here again, i will not part with £14.30 for small size swallow. Its ridiculous. Just lost a very long time customer.

I ordered some food from here for the first time today. It was the worst aya mashe I've ever had. It was extremely oily and they didn't even fry the oil till it was clear so it just smelt and tasted like palm oil. It was so red I thought it was stew at first. I will not be ordering from here again.

NEVER ORDER HERE!! I ordered from get on uber eats against mybets judgment, and got exactly what I expected. They don't know how to follow a simple order correctly, I have missing items from my order and the food is bland. I will never order from here again and will tell others to avoid this place like that plague!!!!
