5 Sisters Restaurant

A spacious, nice, and beautiful African restaurant that may double as a small event centre. Personally, I feel this place is underutilized, considering the large area and good parking. Was hanging out with a friend on a Wednesday night and it felt great. I ordered the Cameroon jollof rice with plantain and goat meat, it was really good.

They are just so inconsistent with their food. This was my last time giving them a chance. I typically order roasted fish and plantains and the last 3 times I’ve given them a try there was something off about the food or my order. One time the fish was over cooked and very dry. The second time, they didn’t give me any pepper sauce. And this last time, the fish just wasn’t good (flavor and texture) and they gave me bad onions and a few raggedy plantains. Prices went up, but portion size went down, and the customer service is lacking big time. I’ve had long waits for my to go orders and it’s just annoying to wait and then the food not be good.

I order okra soup with fufu & instead they give me okra mix with what look like spinach & something else. Also the meet look like Intestines. What the fufu was wrapped in smelled like fresh fish. Seeing that I’m pregnant, I threw up after taking one bite of it. I’m never ordered from this place again! I’m really disappointed cause I was actually looking forward to this.

Nice decor. Good atmosphere. Went there for a birthday celebration. Security person at entry door has a scanner for weapons and ask if any bags coming in contain alcohol? The air outdoors is polluted. Smells like the sewer. Something wrong in that area that needs correction. The restaurant is fine! Thankfully does not affect the indoor atmosphere.

Very bad customer service. I called in to order some food. The first time I called to order, they mentioned the wait time was an hour. My boyfriend and I were not sure we could wait an hour since we were on the road (we don’t live in the area). So, we stopped the order to talk about it and see if we could find something to do in order to be productive in the hour we had to wait for the food before deciding to order. When we got things sorted out and called back, the lady was very rude and rejected our order saying she decided not to take the order anymore since we canceled it the first time. She blatantly rejected the order. Who does that? I thought businesses were supposed to ensure customer satisfaction? Especially restaurants! I’m very disappointed. Then tomorrow, I’ll hear people saying “support your own” when “your own” does not care about their customers. SAD!
