Wazobia Market

This is my first Google review ever, but this place is worth it! The manager was really helpful, showing me which brand of chin chin she’d recommend so I could get some for my friends. I came into the kitchen and placed a big order last minute and they had it ready in 40 minutes. Esther was really helpful with my order, helping me with estimates and getting the food ready quickly. Thank you! I’ll be back 🥰

PS it’s really clean here and the food smells amazing in my back seat! 🤤

Proud of this western African kitchen/Market but Catering Service need a little improvement in terms of picking up. Some friendly face and customer service training will go a long way for the workers as well. Food is good but customer service needs work. Men give better service than the woman both from kitchen and Market. Overall not bad for a west African restaurant. It’s the only Nigerian kitchen I’ve gone back to after some hiccups/delays, I’d pretty much given up on all west African businesses. This restaurant gives me hope. Congratulations to the business owner.

First time and really enjoyed it! Bought almost everything (puff puff, eggroll, beef on a stick, meat pie and chicken pie)and dine in next door! Love different culture dish!

Wazobia African Market, Westhimer, Houston-Texas, the name says it all. It is an African market, where I believe you can find all types of African foods.

Well, I can speak for myself, that yes I can find most of my Nigerian foods. The likes of yam, plantain, goat meat, cow legs, all types of fish, dry fish, stock fish, iru, palm oil, shaki, ponmo, abodi, fuku, crayfish,Ghana pepper 🌶, beans.

You can find things like indomie noodles (chicken and onion flavour),Milo, peak milk, Dano milk, maltina, Malta guiness. Basically, think of anything Nigerian food, they have it.

They also have a Kitchen....Wazobia Kitchen, where they sell cooked food; jollof rice, beans, soups (egusi, edikiankong, afang, okro, ogbono), yam porridge, fried plantain.

They also have snacks like meatpie, donut, fish roll, egg roll and many others.

Wazobia African Market in Houston is a place you can shop for all your raw African foods, likewise cooked foods.

Wazobia African Market is one of the best, if not the best African Markets/Store I've shopped at in Houston. I will be rating them on 3 particular areas. (1) Cleanliness (2) Price (3) Availability of stocks (4) Professionalism

1). Cleanliness: For the size of this store, I appreciate the fact that it is kept very clean, someone is always cleaning up something. It is a place we get food from, cleanliness should be a priority.

2). Price: Apart from a few items like the healthy fufu alternatives, the prices of items are quite affordable, they're not cheap, but affordable.

3). Stock Availability: Items are quite available most of the times I've been there. For example I buy puffpuff for my family and even at 8pm I could even see some left. I would say my favorite plantain chips (Mr John's- comes in a clear and yellow pack) is not as available as one would like. The type that's usually available isn't as soft as Mr John's, its quite dry (it comes in clear and green pack). Nevertheless, when Mr John's in stock, a get like 7, just in case. Most other items are usually readily available.

4). Professionalism: I know for certain, the owner must have drilled Professionalism into the workers because they are always on point. I've been to some other African/Nigerian stores and it feels like they're doing you a favor when its you giving them business. At Wazobia, the customer service is stellar.

All in all, I would give them a 5 star, check them out, trust me after one visit, you'd make them your regular African store.
