Flavors of East Africa

First time trying and it was all insanely yummy, we tried out the fries w jerk chicken which were bomb as hell, I’m not a fan of sweet n savory but this was insanely good, but the star of the show for sure was the goat curry and coconut lentils!! Literally still dreaming about it! The goat curry reminded me of a traditional plate of birria and the meat literally fell off the bone (excuse my home napkin) anyways all yummy I can’t wait to come back n try more!! Thank you for having us <333

My friend who is from Ethiopia and myself who is from Namibia were really excited to try food here. We both are no strangers to East African food. The brick of a steak I got as Nyama choma was a slap in the face. Please have your food cooked by someone from the region you trying to represent. Very disappointing experience today..We gotta do better.

Flavors of East Africa is consistently tasty and flavorful. Priced reasonably, food that melts in your mouth, you won’t be able to put down your fork. Today, I had some of the best service I have ever had in a long time, period, thanks to our server Marley. There were also some very kind young ladies working there, whose names I didn’t catch who were also very sweet and made us have an amazing experience. I felt so authentically welcomed. If you want a cozy spot to grab a meal at, where you feel at home, and you can’t go wrong with a single item, this is the spot. Thanks guys!

This place is amazing. The sweet jerk chicken, saffron rice, lentils, and plantains are my favorite. They also have great lunch specials. The staff are really nice. Parking is a pain in this area, so highly recommend uber or lyft.

Some food was overcooked and dry, some wasn't cooked enough. Service was poor. Interior of place was off. Not following all the good reviews, Beware.

Nothing but good things to say about this place. Super friendly service. Chill vibe. EXCELLENT food. The jerk chicken is to die for. Order a sambusa appetizer and thank me later (lentil). Round your meal off with a gingerized hibiscus juice if you like a big old kick of ginger (good for you!). Very reasonable and very good.

This food is incredible! I’m vegan and this place is probably the best food I’ve ever had in my life. I get the corn and beans, lentils, plantains, and their version of fufu?

Just went to flavors of East Africa and had a great time filled with great flavorful food and a happy belly. The place itself had humble decor but was very clean, bright and inviting. The service was phenomenal and very much appreciated the server topping me off with my to go ginger turmeric drink. I ordered Kuku curry chicken with rice and eggplant all delicious. The amount was a very generous portion hence have enough for dinner and maybe even breakfast. The restaurant was able to accommodate one gluten free patron and another who’s dairy free & pescatarian. Hehe. Thank you Flavors of East Africa. You did not disappoint. Also, thank you to my Reddit friends who recommended this place! :)

Food was terrible. Waste of 20$ wish we dine and dashed. The Jerk Chicken sauce they use is definitely just barbeque sauce from the grocery store not some "in house" sauce they made.
