West African Restaurants near Baltimore, MD

“Excellent delicious food. Exceptional service that would go above and beyond for their customers.“

“Maurice was absolutely amazing. It was my first time ever going to a restaurant of African Heritage, let alone Platinum Amala Spot, and Maurice thoroughly explained every menu item as well as what options I had to pair with each item. He was patient, kind, courteous, friendly and extremely helpful. I recommend his service to anyone who plans to visit, as well as their fufu & goat stew combos! Definitely worth the trip.“

“Food is very delicious. I have been going there with a friend of mine and I really enjoyed the food. The only problem is and it is a very big problem. The meat is way too stiff. It hurt the hell out of your teeth when you have to chew on it if you guys can only, reduce the texture of your meat. It would be absolutely amazing. That’s the only problem that I have and that’s the only reason I give it for stars a little bit more attention on the texture of the meat thank you guys so much.“

“I usually don't write reviews but with me being someone who has had a deep appreciation for African food since trying it for the very first time a few years back, I have to say that I really appreciate all the love that was put into this food in terms of taste, and the aesthetic and presentation of the food is definitely something to appreciate and I will definitely be ordering again. Thank you!

Also, if you happen to be congested but would still like to have something flavorful, their jollof rice and it's spices are definitely the answer for that problem 😉

Side Note: my food choice was a platter that came with peppered fish w/jollof rice and a side of plantain. I also bought a separate side of Plantain because I didn't know beforehand that the platter already had plantain included, but I was glad I did because my platter came with so much rice to save for later and I'll have more plantain on the side to go with it 😊“

“Ok, we decided to try something new and out of our comfort zone. We walked in and their ordering system crashed. Normally, this can stress a kitchen to panic. NOT these guys! They explained what was happening, told us a way to order online and we're very professional. Nicest crew you could want handling your meal. Now the food, flavorful and plentiful. The portion was enormous! Each bite kicks your taste buds right in the ass! And again, I can't say enough about the crew working here, A+ all around. Definitely give this spot a try, you won't be disappointed!“
