Real experience
Very small intimate space, large portions of food, and affordable. Was a little unclear what to do upon entry, as no one immediately greeted us. Seemed like everything was run buy one lady and a kitchen crew. I’m not familiar with Nigerian cuisine so it was a new food experience for me and I enjoyed everything we ordered I got the vibe that this the kind of place area locals know of and go to, without a lot of first-timers like myself.
This was sort of a back-up choice since other area restaurants were packed, but it was quiet, with a handful of customers, and honestly it was good and felt like the better place to be! Would come back again. Cash tipping only. Street parking in the vicinity

I always want to taste the differences in the nigerian dish when it comes to how it’s made by different tribes. B&Q is one of those restaurants to get that delicious taste of the Midwestern area dishes from.
certainly always maintain the lead level with other African restaurants as one of the pioneers. Good food, sound humor, excellent taste and perfect service
Incredible food – the meat dishes & fufu were simply delicious! Definitely a don’t-miss spot if you want authentic Nigerian food in Chicago!

Their service is HORRIBLE. Especially with that one lady who sits there (doesn’t even greet anyone or try to serve anyone, won’t even give you a menu) but the food….. wow. It’s so good it takes you back to a happier time, amazing food. Larger portions and fairer prices compared to their competitors. Will be going back
This was my very first time visiting the place and I can honestly say the food was decent, flavors on point and the fufu was very good. My dish had beef meat and cow leg, both were pretty good. My only complaint on the food was I felt the beef meat could have been a little more tender it was kind of tough.
The staff was polite and ok I just felt that they could have been more helpful to me who is new to their food. Also yes you do have to pay for parking if you are wondering. The prices are reasonable.

The BEST STEW IN TOWN HANDS DOWN!!! The only reason they’re getting 3 stars instead of 5 is for their reaction to black Americans when they walk in.
They aren’t friendly or even happy to see different races and/or backgrounds walking through their doors so expect the strange looks (especially from the owner) when you walk in if you’re not Nigerian. But there red stew with greens is some of the best I’ve ever had you just have to put up with the “you don’t belong here” stare when you pick up your food

Terrific restaurant. Great African fares. Good-size portions too & good value for the money
Food was amazing! Jollof was smoky and well seasoned. Large portions that fed several people from 2 plates. Egusi and fufu was delicious. My uncle and brother kept complimenting the taste of everything. I’ll definitely go back next time I’m in Chicago.
