I was heading to another restaurant when I drove by this restaurant. It's kinda of hidden but when I saw the grill smoking outside I had to stop. I just returned from Ghana a couple months ago, and this tasted as good as any food I ate when I was there. The flavors and spice were perfect. I would definitely recommend and looking forward to trying different plates. My chicken and rice were delicious

I decided to try something different today, and I am glad that I did. I must say that I am very impress with this restaurant. The food was delicious. I ordered the Jollof rice with chicken, Eguis stew with Fufu, and Fried Bass Fish with Jollof rice. Everything were seasoned perfectly with the right flavor. I will definitely recommend African Restaurant ??. Oh, I forgot to mention the beverage "Bissap" you gotta get this❤

Owners son who wears a dread lock hair was very very disrespectful, arrogant and confrontational, I parked my 26ft box truck on a few car spaces, I was the first to arrive the restaurant and waited about 45minutes for my meal to be ready, food does not taste well at all, I have never been that humiliated all my life, he was yelling at me to go remove my truck, meanwhile there was only one car at the lot and over 20 empty spaces, I will never return there, ya'll beware of that tall young man, he is ill mannered, arrogant and very disrespectful.

I am West African myself so I was excited to try. Got jollof and lamb. The lamb was extremely dry and hard. It tasted old. I am highly disappointed smh. Please do better. This is ridiculous and a waste of money on my part.

My wife loves going here for various dishes. If you can wait for it then you will be pleased. Ask about the fufu.
Sooo delicious I’m still dreaming of it, tastiest fried fish and senegalese jollof rice we’ve had, very authentic as well. The spicy paste/sauce is the best.

I’m a truck driver and have eaten at the best restaurants across America. However, I can say that this restaurant is a hidden gem. Amazingly tasty and perfectly fried tilapia. It was reasoned exquisitely! This was my first time trying white jollof. My God, it was delightful. I also ordered egusi and fufu. Everything was fresh, prepared once ordered. Delicious!!!!!
