African Restaurants near Inglewood, CA

“thoroughly enjoyed this place!!“

“Ate fufu with light soup & goat meat!

Update: And I have been going there each time I am in the area. Sometimes, I specifically drive or Uber for about an hour to go eat there. It is one of the few places (actually, the only one I know) that sells Ghanaian food. i wish they delivered to Orange/Orange County, it'd make my life so much easier.“

“The food was Absolutely delicious, and Authentic!“

“Vivian and her brothers Cody and Chuck were amazing professionals. Vivian cooked our food fresh and the brothers were awesome servers. This was my first time here, my coworker asked me to join her and I was pleasantly suprised. I never had Nigerian food before. I will return when I'm in Los Angeles. The atmosphere is very welcoming and loving, which is the most important part for me anywhere.
Thank you guys“

“I have been wanting to try this place out for quite a while now. I stay downtown Los Angeles, so it’s a bit of a distance to drive. Since the closing of the Vuuka lounge downtown, there isn’t much of a choice when it comes to African cuisine. Yesterday, which was Sunday I finally had a chance to try it while on break at work. I placed my order online and picked it up from the restaurant myself. I ordered the jollof combo plate and peppered goat soup. Both were very delicious and well seasoned. I did not sit and eat inside the restaurant, so I can’t really tell you guys how the atmosphere is but what I can say is that it is definitely a place everyone should try“

“Very good tasting food, very friendly and awesome portion size plates.“

“Great service and the food was good.“

“The invaluable non-profit I work for, The Love We Don't See, has used Veronica’s Kitchen to cater many events. From the restaurant to the food, you get an authentic Nigerian experience! If you want to travel without leaving Southern California, this is the place to go. Walk in, and you will understand what I mean; then taste the food, and you will truly believe you are enjoying the best of Nigerian cuisine. My son, who is part Nigerian, loves when I bring home leftovers from Veronica’s Kitchen after my work events. Happy son, happy mama! 😊“

“Had a wonderful meal at Ilé LA. The entire 4-course dinner was presented beautifully, was well-flavored, and vibrant. The food was nourishing and so was the history and storytelling behind it. The care and intention in the food and presentation really made for a special evening. Highly recommend if you’d like to experience elevated pan-African cuisine. The theme of our dinner was a taste of West Africa and included pepper soup, a honey bean hummus, and salad, jollof rice, lamb, catfish, chicken, and fonio, a non-alcoholic beverage, and puff puff with ice cream. Everything was excellent! Would absolutely eat at Chef David’s table again.“

“Incredible food and service. Our waiters name was Christian; he was personable, kind, and hospitable. The food was mouthwatering and had such unique flavors. HUGE portions and definitely comfort food as they state. Will definitely be returning to check out the new menu each month.“

“I felt like having some African food so I Google restaurant near me and this restaurant had a 5 star. My husband and I went there for dinner. On arrival we were greeted by a nice young man at the desk . This restaurant is actually a Lounge with over 7 big screen television for your viewing pleasure. The music, the vibe, the atmosphere was on point. We both met the owner and he literally had drinks with us so friendly. We ordered Goat Stew, Beef Stew, Jollof Rice , Fried Plantains paired wirh Palm Wine and Guiness Stout. Guys my palate experienced an Orgasmic explosion of all different Flavors and taste. The Goat and beef stew was so tender the Rice we took a small portion home and I literally ate every grain. Honestly I wanted to order extra plates to go. My husband is a renowned CHEF we are Jamaicans I know all about good food with proper seasoning, spices and flavors. Will we return most definitely will this place is a hidden gem that we will continue to Explore in the future.“

“LATE REVIEW.

Came here for dinner the night before Valentine's and was able to be seated right away. The menu is divided into two: Moroccan and Tunisian. We wanted to try one of each but we were told by our server that we can only choose one. We found it as a bummer because of course my partner and I wanted to try different things. The food was good, just wished the portions and options were more.

Overall, it was still a pleasant experience. The entertainment from the belly dancers also made the night so fun and memorable.“
