African Restaurants near Gaithersburg, MD

“Comfort food. Tastes good. Goat is excellent. Helpful owner who immigrated 23 years ago from Ghana making Gaithersburg great and makes sure every customer is served timely. Great experience in cute town of Gaithersburg. Thank you for the puff puff.“

“Looking forward to many more visits soon. Today was my initial dining experience and I am very satisfied! Fantastic soup and swallows; full bar; and did you know there's a dance floor?“

“Such a good place! I usually order through Doordash, but this time I decided to eat in person with a friend and it was her first time trying pounded yam, egusi, cassava leaf and puff puff. Best thing ever! Owner was super nice and gave us recommendations on what to try next time we come back. She is so sweet. Please come here!!!! I will definitely come in person than ordering through a third party app next time. I love how her restaurant feels like you were in your mom’s/grandma’s house eating authentic food, and love the afrobeat music playing <3“

“This was a great experience! We were immediately greeted and welcomed. The music was a nice touch and we were able to enjoy a few shows. Our waitress was Josephine and she was kind and friendly, she always checked in to make sure our food was good and if we wanted anything else. The drinks were also amazing. They make a ginger drink with fresh ginger which was strong and bold. It made me feel like my immune system was … . There was also sobolo which had a deep powerful flavor. My favorite was their hibiscus lemonade which was not as strong but had a great flavor. All of their food was outstanding. I enjoyed their peanut butter soup and rice balls. The flavor was great and warmed me up. It felt like I was back in Ghana. This was a great experience and I can’t wait to come back!“
