African Restaurants near Sandy Springs, GA

“Wowzy! Excellent host and waiter, Blessing. More importantly complenents to the chef who prepared my Jollof rice. You've done well.Side note: I never like restaurant made jollof until today. The chef didn't skip even the useless (sarcasm) finishing to add butter. Very well done. Full flavor and I so thrilled it down the street from my house.“

“Jambo Grill located off of Delk rd , Marietta GA is the best ! When I tell you this restaurant serves the best authentic Kenya cuisine , I mean that’s an understatement ! I called to pre order and take out , but the moment I got inside the restaurant , I changed my mind and dined in due to the best ambience ever ! Clean , cozy , great calm Kenyan / Swahili music on background , . The restaurant owners , Sam and Lucy were so welcoming and very accommodating ! They made me feel at home completely ! So for take out , let’s just say I ordered everything on the menu literally to fill my refrigerator at home 😊 Ya’ll come and enjoy either dine in ,or carry out at Jambo Grill , Marietta GA !“

“I found this place by accident when I was searching for something to eat. It’s hard to find an authentic African restaurant but I had to try that fish because I had it before somewhere else. Well I can honestly said The food exceeds my expectations…. It was amazing all the flavors were on point. It has a lil kick to it but not at all spicy. The plantain tastes like a dessert, very succulent . The only bad thing I can say is that I live too far but I will definitely be back!“

“Went there today for first time. Food delicious and plenty on your plate.“

“We stopped in on a whim. Never had Nigerian food. Didn't get a heavy meal, but the chicken skewers, plantains and soup were delicious. The Decor is beautiful and Chef Greg was so gracious.“

“best grilled juicy chicken with different flavors, we recommend it to anyone who lives in Atlanta to try it you will never regret.food so tasty 😋 💯🙌“

“While I'm usually quite particular, I must say the suya and jollof rice were delightful. The service was commendable, the waitresses were bad AF and met all my expectations surprisingly. The hookah surpassed my expectations with its unexpectedly smooth flavor. If you're in Atlanta, it's definitely worth a visit. The ambiance is sexy, and the music creates a great vibe. I'd rate it 10/10.“

“I had a fantastic experience, the food was AMAZING!!!!

I would definitely go there because it was 💯💯💯.
Natacha @ the Queen!“

“Tolex African grill is quite cute in terms of good service delivery vis a viz customer care, healthy meals, decent environment and blessed with very proactive members of staff and chefs. A visit to TOLEX AFRICAN GRILL will definitely convince you more.“

“I don’t normally leave reviews because I see no point in it at times. However, this place is absolutely amazing. From the food, to the music, vibes, and atmosphere. I love it all! I’m a student at Georgia state so I’m sure you all know how expensive it is in Atlanta, however this place is very affordable and doesn’t have ridiculous prices. Yesterday I got egusi with 2 pounded yam for $25. In atl or Ike’s that’s around 35 bucks. A win is a win! I’ll be there again this weekend! 10/10“

“The place is always empty or semi-empty when you go there, no matter what day of the week or time of day you go. The pricing is ridiculously expensive , and they force a tip on your bill, EVEN IF IT'S TAKEOUT. Also, the portion sizes are small, but the food is SO YUMMYYY so that helps a bit.... what's saving this place is the pretty decor, great service, and good music.

**UPDATE** I want to make a revision to this review. After having a long discussion with the Kevin, the very friendly owner, he realized that there's been some miscommunication between the cashiers and the take-out policy and he's since adjusted the 18% mandatory tip for those doing pickup orders and has spoken to his staff as well about this issue. Thank you Kevin!!“

“My friends and I celebrated my birthday at Redroom and we had a time. When going to Redroom make sure you book with Brooke and Love. Both were kind and attentive and the food was amazing. If you’re looking for something different with Gorillaz, pandas and women dancing from the ceiling, this is the place you wanna be.“

“Stopped by on my way to Birmingham to grab some food. On entering, they were warm and friendly. Food was amazing!!!!

I got my mom the amala and ewedu. She said she’s gotta take a trip there because it was so good even after some hours sitting in my car. The Afang and pounded yam was so delicious too. The plantain and eggs were great too. My new spot when I come back to the area .“

“Lambadina is an excellent, almost hidden find for tasty Ethiopian food with a small game room that has a few arcade games and a pool table. The vegetarian plate was almost enough food for two people and everything was freshly prepared and tasty. The Injera got a bit cold fast, so the meal is best eaten quickly!“
