African Restaurants in Worcester, MA

“The food at Fatima's is absolutely delicious and very fresh. The owner is an amazing human being who is incredibly kind. My daughter loves a cake she makes, and Fatima was out of it on the day we were visiting the restaurant. I told the owner we would be back for cake on our next visit, when my daughter was home from college. The owner told me that there was no way my daughter was headed back to school without having her favorite cake. She made a special batch that morning, when she was not even open, in order for my daughter to enjoy it before she left. Both my daughter and I were in tears, we could not believe her incredible kindness. I hope this place succeeds greatly and is around for years to come! Fantastic service, incredible food, and kindness are a winning combination!“

“I called as I was having an issue building my own bowl and a young gentleman was so helpful and took my order over the phone which didn't take long at all. When I went to pick up my food, he offered to show me how to place an order online and that meant a lot - Great Customer Service.
The food was so delicious - fingerlicking good. I ordered the half waaky3/half jollof, plantains, corn, grilled carrots and sweet potatoes with spicy honey and a side of Shito glaze - SOO GOOD. I am certainly returning to explore the menu more.“

“Over the top service! Good food and very nice presentation“

“The owners were nice, the food was delicious and it was a very large heavy portion for the price. I got a plate of waakye + jollof with beef and it was super good and fed two people well. The inside is simple and clean and it feels designed for primarily take out but there is seating available. Wait time is reasonable but if you’re in a rush you may want to call and order ahead.“

“The food was excellent. It was my first time trying Nigerian food band it did not disappoint. I had never heard of Chofi before but it was delicious. According to AI it is fried fatty turkey tails.The chicken and jollof rice had a nice spicy kick to it but not too spicy. It was a 45 min wait for the food but well worth it and the cashier was very polite. Unfortunately there are no options to dine in but there is one comfortable couch to sit on while waiting.“

“Good food, large portions, but very much the stereotype of service that feels almost like the employees are reluctant to do their job. Generous with plantains, but pricey. Decent amount of beef per plate, but nothing special. No egg was available when I went, though. Good waakye - 8.5/10 and jollof 7.5/10.“

“Place was pretty empty when I went on Tuesday night but it’s still a vibe. My 1st time having Ghanaian food and it was delicious. The staff and patrons were very friendly.

I got the fufu with goat light soup and a side of okra on the suggestion of this friendly Ghanaian patron and her friend. The staff explained to me how to eat the dish. Used my hands… but they also provided a spoon. The soup was very flavorful and spicy. The fufu texture is so soft and smooth and tastes very buttery. Kind of like thick & stretchy mash potatoes. The goat was interesting. There were different parts of the goat including the organs and inners. Very well seasoned. The okra had a nice slimy texture and helped thicken the soup.“

“Great Ghanaian-American cuisine. If ordering for take out call way ahead of time to get food on time. Medium size place. Great bar and socialable waiters and waitresses. Owner is usually around he is very friendly and will help take care of any problems. Not open on Mondays!!!“
