If you’re going to bring a dish from Nigeria to life in Brooklyn New York do it the right way ! First and foremost my pictures speak for themselves. This is not how SUYA beef is sliced for consumption. Why would you serve big chunks of meat like that in a bowel on a bed of kale. Next it was tasteless no flavor in the meat only the sprinkle seasoning on top had flavor. First time and last time I was so disappointed waste of money ! Tough dry big thick pieces of tasteless beef. If it was flavored beef that has been marinated and juicy I could go home and slice it up, fair enough. I would not have been so upset. But these huge pieces is not easily chewable. SUYA IS SERVED IN BITE SIZED PIECES that can be picked up by a toothpick!!!! not these huge pieces bigger then an Oreo cookie. And for a salad bowl this is crazy. Y’all gotta do better this is not fair to customers!
Not to be compared to real beef SUYA in Nigeria ! Not at all. Try at your own risk !!!! I’m so mad…I hate wasting money on food that’s a failure !!!!

Apologies you did not have a good experience your complaints will be noted
The food is amazing and the service is quick and top-tier. I’ll definitely be back for more.
I was truly looking forward to tasting Brooklyn Suya based on the reviews. However, after trying the beef and chicken suya, I was very disappointed for several reasons. First, this isn’t suya. This is broiled beef with seasoning, chicken cooked with sprinkled suya seasoning, appreciate the salad and brown rice. I suggest the owner visit London UK or Nigeria the origin of suya if they really want to sell suya. People here giving good reviews most likely never ate suya before. Secondly, this had never happened to me before, but as I was chewing I felt something sharp in my mouth only to discover a piece of glass. Like whaaaat? This could have sliced my throat. How did a piece of glass got into the food? Thirdly, my daughter find a piece of long black hair in her food entangled on her broccoli. Seriously health and safety issues. I would not recommend this place. Sorry!
Hands down one of the savoriest bowls of delicious food you WILL EVER have. Hands down. The ONLY negative is you will LEGIT wait an hour for your food. Even if you do UBER and pick it up yourself. Time your hunger with an hour to spare.
The food is robust and savory. Even with the mild spices, the taste is out of this world. The chef never cuts corners and always spends a decent amount of time in cooking food. Hands down the best Nigerian food in Crown Heights. I would definitely eat it again.
This is so original, well flavored, great portion and jut incredibly light. Will recommend this as best place to visit.
This place gives you premier dining without premier costs. The people here aren't excessively warm but definitely helpful. This place leaves a lasting impression. Each bite offers something interesting. Full support of this place.
Amazing food. Friendly staff
