Union Cafe - Irvington

Everything was delicious, and the young woman at the counter was stunning. However, I wish they offered some soup and stew options that aren't so spicy and intense. While I appreciate the flavors, they can be a bit overwhelming for me, and many of my friends and family who enjoy the food have the same concern. We would love the chance to savor meals without all the heat.

The food is excellent, and I appreciate how they package the egusi. They remove the tough, inedible bits of meat and provide a nice option for enjoying the crushed yam. However, the egusi is a bit too sharp for my taste. Typically, egusi shouldn't have that sharpness. It would be great if they offered both a spicy and a non-spicy egusi option.

This restaurant is a lovely spot to enjoy a meal at excellent prices. The service is very friendly, adding to the overall experience.

The food is just delicious. I had the Egusi soup and the broken Yam and my taste buds were so happy. Customer service was excellent. The woman waiting for me was so pleasant and she touched me with a smile as soon as I came in. The restaurant was also very clean. I will definitely visit this restaurant.
