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.“

“Amazing food, great customer service. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful. Definitely coming back again! I love their pepper soup and fufu, jollof rice and the banku with tilapia and hot sauce. The best restaurant in the whole DMV. One thing that I love about the place is they’re very neat, and clean. Y’all need to try this place and thank me later. And they do catering as well, for weddings, graduations, birthdays and all kinds of events. Just talk to them, the owner is very friendly and would give a good recommendation for your event.“

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

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

“My favorite is the waakye ( Rice & beans). I’ve tried waakye in Ghana and most of the big cities in the states but this one is a must try. Lately moved out of Va and my only ask from anyone visiting me is just that. Adding to my experience is auntie Rose, who prepares and serves with joy. Thank you auntie Rose.“

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

“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 😂“

“I read the reviews and started not to come. My food was really good and tasteful! I got egusi, fufu, and oxtails. The portion size of oxtails was good with a little fat and the portion of egusi I must admit I wanted mooooorrrre! It was very good. The woman at the counter was so pleasant and the building looked clean and calm. I’ll be back for sure“
