Ayo African Restaurant & Bar offers a variety of savory African dishes, including egusi soup, jollof, and suya. The owner is friendly, and the Gulder African beer is strong. Customers praise the well-prepared meals, such as white rice with catfish. The staff is cheerful, funny, and always helpful. While some find the flavors a bit strong, it is considered one of the best spots in town for authentic African cuisine.
The food is described as good and tasty, but the portion sizes may be reduced when ordering for takeout compared to dining in. Customers have also noted that sometimes the specific type of meat requested is not available, and no apologies or substitutions are offered. However, the energy of the owner and employees is inviting and professional, and they are helpful in explaining the different dishes.
The atmosphere is described as homely, and for some customers, it was their first time trying African food, which they found to be an amazing experience with a variety of flavors. The smoked fish and goat dishes were particularly praised as being perfectly cooked.
