Suya Joint

A Nubian Square go-to, Suya Joint embodies the generous spirit and homey cuisine of a Nigerian village joint. Soak up the warm hospitality while diving into rich stews—like the peanut-based taushe or pumpkin-seed-and-spinach egusi—served with starchy fufu for sopping. Fruity cocktails balance the savory, often spicy cuisine.
