This is one of my go too places its so great with intense flavors. I have been here a bunch of times & tried many items but my favourite has to be the okra dry soup. I am not sure what is all in it but try it very good but a little spicy so if you don’t like heat you should avoid.
Amazing food. I’ve never had African before and I feel like I’ve been missing out on real flavour my whole life. Go here, enjoy everything about it and then repeat steps 1 and 2.
Chicken and Steamed Rice. Very tasty but way over priced these to pieces of chicken cost 12.00 for 2 very small drum sticks
I remember coming here a couple months back. Simply. Amazing. It was my first time going there, and I actually started to rave about how great the food was to random strangers sitting in a nearby table.I had a meat pie, their ogbono okele (dried mango seed soup), and split a whole grilled tilapia fish with a friend of mine. The sophistication of their flavours (yes, that joke just happened) is downright surreal. Everything was cooked and seasoned to near perfection. It tasted like genuine home cooking to me. They might have used just a little bit too much oil on their grilled tilapia for my tastes, but it was not too detracting by any measure.The service was extremely good. The staff was very attentive, informative, and patient. They will gladly take you through any and all menu questions you have (I had quite a bit to ask myself). All in all, a great experience. I would definitely recommend this place to others (and already have to many that I know).
Consistent. I’ve been to Flavours on several occassions since it opend it doors and I’m always amazed on the consistency of their food. I have order pepper soup, rice with stew, pounded yam and egusi and, many more and they have all been amazing. I believe Calgary is eventually going to see how healthy and tasteful Nigerian and African food are. Will definitely recommend this place to anyone to try and enjoy. We are blessed to have someone in the Nigerian community finally showcasing the types of food you can find in Nigeria.
Tasty. Having never had Nigerian food I was a bit apprehensive. The owners daughter was happy to explain all the different types of food and I finally decided on the BBQ lamb special with rice and African sauce with a side of plantains. My husband picked a more Signature African meal Okele with a side of Eba (Cassava) instead of the yam and ordered goat. They give you an appetizer of African Timbits. Then the food came out THE PORTIONS ARE MASSIVE!! I was surprised how comforting my dish turned out it wasn’t spicy it was delicious. The African sauce was delicious with the rice and plantains. My husband’s dish was a little different for me but he absolutely adored it. The one he had was cooked with kale, dried fish and shrimp. So you don’t need to order an extra meat on the side. The kale was flavorful but be warned there are dried fish bones in it. The goat was delicious. I didn’t care for the Eba it was a bit sour for my taste but my husband loved it. The owner Bola came out and just was so lovely. She even brought out a sample of what the Cassava looked like. We ended up talking to her until closing. I would go back and try something else.
The meal was delicious service was nice would certainly return
