My Village-grill Restaurant, Kansas City MO

Four hours for take out. We started ordering online at 430. Website didn’t work. So we called the order in by 530. They said an hour.went at 630 and the order wasn’t ready. They said 30 minutes. At 730 they called and said they didn’t have all of the ingredients for the dishes and wouldn’t be able to make all the ordered plates. We’ve already paid; which by the way was more than the online prices. $150 for dinner. During that call they asked us when we were going to come pick up the food and said it should be done in 30 minutes. My husband waited at the restaurant until 9pm- closing time. At that point they said 45 more minutes for the fish dish if we wanted it. My husband said no. So minus a dish we still paid $150. They didn’t offer money back or anything.

Maybe the food is excellent but the business skills are horrific. They stay open because they have no competition. If you know you can’t fulfill an order at least have the respect for the customer to tell them so it doesn’t ruin their night. And give them their money back for what wasn’t provided.

UPDATE: They forgot the chicken order and the shrimp rice only has two tiny pieces of shrimp. So we basically just had beef.

Food was delicious, service excellent and was delightful to be served by the owner. Very nice and friendly gentleman. Will definitely stop by anytime I am in town. I had the jollof rice with fish and my wife had white rice and catfish pepper soup.

It was our first time trying My Village Grill and it was wonderful! Since my family hadn't experienced this type of food before, so Victor (owner) brought out several things to try. My favorite was the beef suya. We were told it was a little spicy, but it was so good that even the members of my family that don't appreciate spice like I do, couldn't stop eating it. The sambusas were similar to an empanada, although the spices are different. They were excellent as well.

Absolutely some of the best Aftican food in the entire metro area, and possibly all connecting states! The food and service is top notch! Delicious!

This is one of the best restaurants I been too! The food is extremely delicious with a great aftertaste. The jollof rice with the goat meat was perfection! It’s pricey but well worth it!

The food there is good but the service, Oh my God it’s shamefully horrible. They literally did not honor an order I placed online because they wanted to charge more for the plate of food and the price on the online website was 5 dollars cheaper. You’d think they’d give you a call to let you know that they will not make this order but no. After driving half an hour to the place, they tell you they did not make the food because they don’t check the online orders from the website. They only check WhatsApp now. I’ve been there three times and three times, my order was messed up. First time they forgot my beef suya. Granted they gave it to me the next time I ordered but I kind of wanted it when I actually ordered it. Second time was just awful. Third time they did not prepare my order at all. This place is just a joke.

My husband ordered take out and he said Victor was so amazing and friendly. He had nothing but great things to say about the place. When we recieved the food I was impressed. Very clean, qualitu food. My favorites were the samosas, chicken with fried rice and plantains, and tripe kebab. Definitely recommend you go.

We got there and they rejected our service because “it was full” and the restaurant was empty.

Authentic west African food Service was great if dining in relax meal may take a little time but very good. Very clean everyone is there to serve you

We love it! My husband took me here and their okra is my most favorite! Victor is amazing.

Went to go try them for the first time and was told that since it was just me and my friend that they were closed unless we had a party of four or more thought that was very unprofessional and the place was empty no business how does a company want to make money if they turn customers away just don't understand that thought

The food here was seriously amazing! My husband and I ordered carry out last night and this was my first time trying African food, the owner was so kind explaining the dish to me and made sure to show me my food before packing it up for carry out. You can tell they put so much care into their food, we will definitely be returning!

When we entered the was nobody there but they told us it was full food would of Ben gross anyway

The most amazing African restaurant in Missouri. Like Omg from the food to the atmosphere. The suya, will make you spend all your paycheck.

This was my first time coming and I got the beef samosa and my boyfriend got the fried tilapia- VERY worth it- good price for the amount of food and the inside of the restaurant has a very cool vibe.we will be back
