African Restaurants near Phoenix, AZ

“Cozy inviting atmosphere, cheerful warm insightful service, authentic and complementary flavor profiles. Enthusiastically recommend!“

“We had Jollof Rice which had pieces of beef In it and fried Chicken which I loved. We also had Rice and Tilapia which was good as well. Prices are fair as well and the food didn't take too long and came out hot. Owner was friendly as well and we can close to closing time but she let us dine in which was highly appreciated. She was also friendly which is always a plus. I do recommend giving it a try I promise you will like it. Definitely somewhere I'll be going frequently. Oh and don't like my pic fool you my Jollof was actually juicy not dry.“

“Very good food and service“

“I love the food !!! It was sooo good ! Only thing I would complain about is the price of food. It was $30 really per person which is super expensive for the ingredients of food cost.

Other than that I would definitely be trying egusi and fufu again!“

“Great food, good people and a great change of pace. The lamb is really good!“

“Tried this place during our stay in Phoenix. The quality and portion size of food was top notch. The person serving us was very friendly and helped us with the details of Somali food that we were eating for the first time. When the food came out, it tasted just divine. Will visit again.“

“Uh - they didn't have any way to share what's on the menu. I mean I forgot to bring my smart device to download their app, and the menu board just kept flashing pages lithe with suggestion. It looked pretty low down, and I couldn't get a breath or conjure an air as to why I was there. Much aplomb!

Kid-friendliness: They just don't want to offer service, and I understand that the law allows...“

“I've been dying to try egusi soup, but the restaurants up by where I live don't have it. I was extremely excited to find it down here while I'm visiting my family.

The fufu was better here than other places I've had it (soft and pliable, not dry and crumbly). I have no comparison for the egusi soup, but IMHO, it was amazing! Very flavorful! Love that the hot sauce was on the side bc while the flavor of the hot sauce was amazing, it was spicy! In a good way, of course, but I liked that I was able to control the amount of spice.

My only critique is that I did not realize it was pick up only and was a bit confused when I walked into a little grocery store, I thought I was in the wrong place at first.
There was a gentleman who saw my confusion and showed me where the pick-up area was, so I'm grateful for the sweet, attentive staff. I think it might be useful to have some signage that says online orders this way.... or something of the sort.
But great food and staff, so I'll most likely be stopping in at least once more before I leave town. Thank you for a wonderful experience! 💕“
