African Restaurants near Fort Washington, MD

“This is a nearby spot and couldn't be happier if it were any closer I'd be there everyday. Mama is the sweetest woman so hard working and very kind. The food is made with love and is worth every cent it's not expensive but it's worth every dollar. My favorite dish is jerk chicken, white rice, cabbage, and plantains with a side of coco bread?“

“It’s my pleasure to ordering food from Kulan restaurant for my kids and I. I had requested a rice dish with lamb, but to my delight, the portion was more than generous. The lamb itself from Kulan was incredibly delicious, with a tender and succulent texture that melted in my mouth. The flavors were well-balanced, and the combination of the rice and salad complemented the dish perfectly. It was evident that Kulan put great care and attention into preparing the meal. I highly recommend Kulan for anyone looking for exceptional food and service. My kids love Somali food no more burger or fries.“

“This place was such a delightful discovery! The attentive care by the owner and staff made us feel welcomed and at home. And the food was so good! Truly fantastic. We had the grilled tilapia with bantu and okra soup with fufu. We were super grateful for water and bowl at our table to wash our hands before and after the meal, too. We'll definitely be back.“

“I tried the jollof rice and fried rice at my sister inlaws reception and IT WAS SO GOOOOOODDDDD“

“I am also from Guinea, West Africa. However, I have observed a significant difference in our culinary preparation methods. I recently ordered a fish pepper soup, and it did not meet my expectations. The dish primarily consisted of fish, and the soup's consistency was thick, similar to what is typically served with rice, rather than the expected pepper soup.“

“Most unique gelato I ever had. But it wasn’t bad! 👍🏻“

“Food was so good I ordered curry goat and chicken rice and FuFu 👍“

“Every single time I’ve either ordered food in person or from Uber Eats from here, I have NOT been disappointed. Best Ghanaian food I’ve had in the DMV so far. The portions are very generous as well, which I appreciate. The owner is so kind and you can tell she’s very passionate about running this restaurant. 10/10!“

“After seeing multiple 1 star reviews from many months ago I thought id give it a try. The gentleman at the checkout was very friendly and understood exactly what i would have liked based on how I like subtle but flavorful food. He recommended the fufu and egusi with goat and I was in awe taking my first bite. The egusi was not slimy but perfect consistency and so was the fufu. The goat was seasoned and very tender. The egusi was the perfect mix of healthy and flavorful and the portion was really good. Considering im a big guy I left satisfied.
Previous reviews I feel do not apply anymore. At least regarding the fufu and egusi. I have not tried the other soups.“

“Great store and staff! Visited earlier to get someone some traditional Ghana 🇬🇭 food. The guy in the line in front of me was super nice and explained some food items to me like: corn 🌽 mixed with peanut 🥜 butter 🧈 and ginger. 🫚 If you don’t like ginger 🫚 you probably won’t like some of the items. The wife wasn’t a fan. I thought it was delicious and much better than the lemonade we made at Deliver Lean; that was the most ginger thing I have ever had 😂 it burned to drink that stuff. Anyway, great staff, great food, smelled amazing!!! Wish I had tried more stuff cause the meats smelled amazing. Muslim friendly as it had a sign praising Allah. I’m a barefoot 🦶 servant of Lord Jesus and know that The Holy Spirit watches over all the children of God Almighty no matter what name. Also, the cops posted outside made it feel more safe and secure. Wish I’d take more photos. The music was awesome!! Wife had to made me stop snapping 😂“
