African Restaurants near Florence, KY

“Tries this place out because some coworkers recommended the place online and since I was in town and didn't want regular American fare I tried it out alongside 2 of my other coworkers. Place is a hole in the wall and at all impressive inside, but the staff was kind and very accommodating, especially after one of my coworkers said she was a vegetarian and we found out the didn't have many offerings for her diet, they went out of the way to make something just so she could have something to eat. Top notch service there. I ordered myself a sambusa and goat meat with rice and both were tasty, though we did have to ask for some in-house hktsauce for the rice to add a bit more flavor. The portions served were also very large and filling, with only myself able to finish all of it, while the others had to het to go boxes. Overall a good find and one I would come back to in future visits to the area.“

“This place is absolutely fantastic. Every dish was so flavorful and a joy to eat. We had sambusa which was super crispy and full of filling, served with a spicy green sauce and a creamy yogurt sauce, chicken cooked in Somalian spices, and lamb shank on rice. Our server was very friendly and enthusiastic. The tables inside are big and there are a lot of booths.“

“It took the guy a while to ask for my order, although he saw me. The older guy came out from the back and was very polite and helpful, and I ended up ordering 4 meals. All were wonderful, I ordered the fish with rice, okra sauce with lamb that was fall off the bone tender and rice, the leaf sauce and rice, and the grilled chicken with rice. The store was ice cold, so that was my only complaint with the inside of the restaurant I definitely couldn't eat in if I wanted to. But I will most definitely be back. Everything was perfectly seasoned and spiced. The Vine Street restaurant has gone downhill since 2000. This is definitely the best African food in Cincy. Didn't see half of the things below on the menu.“
