Waterside Market

This taste so horrible... Too much salt and just a waste of money. Imagine you're hungry and decided to grab something to eat at the place you expect to be decent and only to be disappointed, because I could not eat the food.

This is the first time I've been disappointed with food that had good flavor. The guy taking the order was rude and answered sarcastically when he was asked a question about a dish. We've purchased food from here many times and I usually always add the largest bowl of lamb to our order. There's usually a lot of lamb bones, but I don't complain because there's at least lamb meat. This time I purchased this dish and it's made much differently, there was little to no lamb in the dish, it was full mostly turkey wing bones, fish bones, kidney beans, and small bit of lamb fat, some lamb bone pieces and barely any edible meat. I'm extremely disappointed. We spent almost $60 on food for me to be picking at bones and trying to avoid getting fish bones in my throat. This is highly dishonest to sell a dish as a lamb dish and fill it with bones from other meats and fish bones. They have signs posting about the economic times and making changes and not including free items with certai orders anymore, but this isn't free, if I'm paying I want a decent meal in exchange for my money. This is not a business I'll recommend due to these practices.

WORST AFRICAN FOOD IVE EVER CAME ACROSS. Food very nasty. It seems like they had it for a while( way too old) It was very slimy That’s when you know meat is old. The greens and the meat. It had a very foul Oder not appetizing at all if someone orders food from there and don’t pick it up they will resell it even if it’s at the end of the day and it will be cold. They don’t have good service at all. I gave the food back without receiving my money back left work to bring it back and I don’t care it was that horrible and I wanted them to know.

4 stars for the food and portion BUT 2 stars for the customer service. They speak to you with such belittling tone. Get upset when you ask for what’s available and what’s not. Or they on their phone and not paying attention. If you not the type for customer services… then don’t do it. but good job to the cooks!

This review is about the restaurant side: I ordered benachin rice today, and the food was sour and had a slippery texture. When I noticed the rice looked overly burnt at the store, I mentioned it to the person who served me. He insisted that nothing was wrong and guaranteed it was fine. It seemed like the rice had been reheated for a long time before being served. After taking it home, I realized he had misled me, the rice was indeed sour and slippery. This reflects poor customer service and unprofessional behavior.

It’s like a hit or miss at this restaurant. Sometimes the food is good and sometimes it’s not !! I love the collards , but today they tasted brunt with no flavor.. Very disappointing! I will be staying away from here on out !

This restaurant need to do better, you buy any size of plate of food especially their soup they just fill the bowl with soup without meaningful protein or good fish or meat, I just hope the owner of the store or whomever manage the store do the needful to correct this because I am.not sure I want to go back to patronize them again.

Typical Liberia in Minnesota, ya'll. You can find all your african goodies at Waterside Market, and the prices are really good 👍. Great shopping experience with their restaurant next door. With Waterside Market, Sun Farmers Market, and Restaurant Depot 4hrs plus drive from me, I can actually survive here, lol 😆😂.
