Nigerian Cuisine • Takeout • Event Catering
The Peppered Goat is a takeout-only Nigerian food business. We do not offer dine-in seating. All orders are prepared fresh and available for pickup or delivery. This lets us focus entirely on the quality of every dish we send out.
You can place an order directly through our online ordering system on our website or via our mobile app. Simply browse the menu, add your items, and checkout — it's quick and easy. For large or custom orders, feel free to contact us directly.
Yes! We offer delivery within the Los Angeles area. Delivery availability and radius may vary — check our online ordering page for your address. You can also order through third-party delivery platforms where we are listed.
For standard takeout orders, we recommend placing your order at least a few hours in advance to guarantee availability. For large group orders or special requests, please give us 24–48 hours notice so we can prepare everything fresh and on time.
We accept all major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover), as well as Apple Pay and Google Pay. For catering and event orders, payment terms will be outlined in your agreement.
If you need to modify or cancel an order, please contact us as soon as possible. We begin preparing orders shortly after they are placed, so the sooner you reach out, the better we can accommodate changes. Reach us by phone or through the contact form on our website.

We ask for at least 2 weeks advance notice for catering orders to ensure we can source ingredients and prepare everything fresh. For larger events or special menu requests, we recommend reaching out 4–6 weeks ahead.
Absolutely! We work with you to create a custom menu tailored to your event theme, guest count, and dietary needs. We can offer family-style spreads, individual plated portions, or buffet-style setups — all rooted in authentic Nigerian cooking.
Cultural celebrations are at the heart of what we do. We proudly cater Owambe parties, naming ceremonies (Ìsọmọlórúkọ), weddings, and community events. We understand the role food plays in these moments and bring the full Nigerian party experience to your table.
