Kejjis Restaurant was born from a deep love for Nigerian cuisine and a desire to share our cultural heritage with the diverse community of Brampton, Ontario. Founded in 2015 by Chef Keji Adebayo, our journey began with a simple mission: to create a space where the flavors of Nigeria could be experienced in their most authentic form.

Growing up in Lagos, Keji learned the art of Nigerian cooking from her grandmother, who believed that food was the most powerful expression of love an community. These early lessons formed the foundation of what would later become Kejjis Restaurant.

After moving to Canada, Keji noticed a gap in the culinary landscape – the rich, diverse flavors of Nigerian cuisine were underrepresented. What started as small gatherings with friends who craved a taste of home soon grew into pop-up events, and eventually, our beloved restaurant in the heart of Brampton.

"Food is our common ground, a universal experience that connects us all to our roots and to each other. At Kejjis, we don't just serve meals – we share stories, heritage, and the love that goes into every recipe."
