“Love this place! Like many have already mentioned, it’s a casual spot so don’t expect anything super fancy. That being said,
it was a very welcoming environment and the food was top notch! My server did a great job and came to check in on me, would love to visit here again.“

“We were really excited to eat here to celebrate my wife’s birthday and it was one of the best dinner experiences we’ve had in DC. Not exaggerating, it’s the best sauce work on dishes we have ever tasted. The sauces for the piri salad, branzino, and shrimp were the highlights while the oysters were the standout. Our server (Cesar) was phenomenal and gave us great recommendations. We are excited to come back here with our friends in the near future!“

“So many folks have been drawn to the new kid on the block, Koma Café, but don’t forget about the welcoming, delicious and expansive Mansa Kunda at the corner of Flower and Erie Aves. There is plenty of interesting space to enjoy a meal, a quiet afternoon coffee or a friendly drink. You can even sit on a chair made from a traditional West African drum. There couldn’t be a more gracious host than Hatib who serves brunch in addition to lunch and dinner. This morning he welcomed five of us for a 10:00am feast, first asking if there was anything we didn’t eat (meat for the most part) but yes to eggs. We trusted him to surprise us and indeed he did. The veggie omelets were tender, whole wheat rolls still warm, the home fries crunchy and rich and the Brussel sprouts delicious. There were small coconut fritters, lightly fried and dusted with powdered sugar. So tasty! The brunch menu at Mansa Kunda includes familiar favorites like blueberry pancakes in addition to traditional West African dishes. Peanut butter chu anyone? It’s open from 10:00am to 9:00pm every day with Happy Hour from 4:00 to 7:00. Hatib is also an excellent baker so the sweets are a treat. We’re very lucky to have Mansa Kunda in the neighborhood. If you haven’t been there already, you’ll find something special to enjoy.“

“Excellent quality, very authentic food. If you love spicy this is the spot for sure to check out. You can build your own bowl and have plenty of options to choose from, also the beverages are authentic as well. Definitely not expensive yet fairly priced yet still excellent in qualitu. Highly recommend!“

“Delicious African food and a fantastic dining experience at Elmina. I did the chef’s tasting menu and it was amazing—each course was creative, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor. The dishes highlighted a variety of African ingredients and spices, and everything tasted incredibly fresh and well balanced. The staff also did a great job explaining each course, which made the experience even better. If you’re looking to try something unique and delicious in DC, the tasting menu here is definitely worth it. Highly recommend!“

“Today was my first time visiting. I came from WV. I follow the page and have been wanting to try this amazing looking food!!! April helped me pick my order and she did an awesome job!! The food was 10/10!!! My taste buds are happy ❤️“

“The best restaurant in USA“

“Really delicious Ivorian food -- grilled red snapper, stews, and jollof. I love the little curries that came with our dishes. But honestly the fresh ginger juice was seriously the best ginger drink I've had anywhere. We're going back to just pick that stuff up and sip and restore life to our eyes. Friendly folks too :)“

“Love the food and the customer service“

“Project Suya was the best decision I made all week!! So juicy and tender and the spice is on point! It's been awhile since I've been and Grace help me pick what I wanted. It's hard to choose when you're hungry..lol. She was sweet and very professional. Highly recommend Project Suya“

“Really cool store that has a lot of Senegalese items around for sale. The food was perfect it was my first time having west African food and I really liked how Smokey and barbequey the food was. I got the large lamb platter and they really packed on the rice and lamb, it was really delicious and the onions were particularly good. The lamb wasn’t gamey at all and had a great taste and chew. The turn around time on the order was quick as well and very friendly staff.“

“I came here with some friends for a fun Friday night and thoroughly enjoyed my time! The vibes are great, the music was great, and the food was great too! I tried the beef skewers and the jollof rice. The service could be improved upon. We were left waiting for our waiter for very long periods of time and when my food came, I wasn’t given any silverware or napkins. Overall, I will definitely be back!“

“I absolutely love this place! Swahili Village never disappoints — the food is always so good and full of flavor. Everything is well-seasoned, fresh, and authentic. From the savory entrees to the sides and even the drinks, every dish hits the spot. The atmosphere is welcoming and the presentation is beautiful. This is definitely one of my go-to spots when I want a satisfying, delicious meal. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“One of the best Cameroonian spot in the DMV. Whenever I’m looking for good authentic Cameroonian cuisine Tiku’s Kitchen is my only go to, she have never disappointed!!!!!!!!!! I’ve been eating from her for a year now and the food always taste the same or better, and the price is also a plus. if I could give a 10 star I would“

“I’m new to the area and decided to try Flora’s since it was the closest spot. I didn’t expect much, but wow, I was so pleasantly surprised! I had the chance to meet Flora, the owner, and she’s incredibly sweet and welcoming. I ordered the Egwusi, Jollof, and Eru soup, and they were all absolutely delicious. Honestly, I can’t even pick a favorite because each dish was perfect in its own way. I’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend this place!“

“Simply delicious meal and value for my money“

“really good, quality food and service at very fair prices- TJ (owner) was fantastic and takes care of each customer like they were his own family/friend. the suya, goat, fish, and plantains were all perfectly prepared and delicious. definitely highly recommend this spot not just for quality but also level of service from the owner/staff - A++ / 10 out of 10! *and they just got their liquor license as well!“

“Had Disbe for the first time last night at the Chadwick Boseman foundation fundraiser event for HU. It was so good that I was trying to figure out how to get a bowl before I flew back home in the morning. Ngeri made sure I got a bowl and dropped it at my hotel at midnight after the event! The meat is so tender, the flavors are so good and the service is top tier. Thank you! I’m looking forward to the NYC opening.“

“First time visit!! GOD BLESS YOU!! Every stew is delicious. Bitterleaf with fish & Amala; Isi ewu (goat) with Garri. Hearty, smoky, satisfying!! Looking forward to my next visit.“

“I initially called to ask what options of protein the store has and I was told whatever you like we offer! I really appreciated how kind the woman on the phone was and as I walked in she was very pleasant. I also noticed the menu offered a variety of other dishes I did not know the store prepared since the online menu did not provide but easily convinced me to want to come back immediately. I ordered the cassava leaf stew with fish and white rice. I also ordered two Jamaican beef patties. I ordered two cassava leaf stews because I kept reading reviews of how small the servings were. Being pregnant and having this craving made me say why not just order two in case! Lo and behold when I received my food it was a very good size portion as well as the amount of protein given with this dish! I was extremely pleased with not only the taste but the quantity of serving at the listed price is very appropriate. My overall experience 10 out of 10 will be trying again and again!!! I’m so satisfied and now know to go and try things yourself instead of reading reviews. You never know. Proof of the quality down below. Food is absolutely delicious approved by a pregnant craving woman!!!“

“Great Late-Night Find with Excellent Service!
I ordered from Beyond Suya at their kiosk, and I was genuinely impressed. The staff was so nice, patient, and super communicative throughout the entire process. Even though it wasn’t a dine-in experience, they made sure everything went smoothly and made me feel like a valued customer.

The food was absolutely delicious – full of flavor and clearly made with care. What really stood out, aside from the amazing service, is that they’re open late! If you’re looking for something tasty and satisfying to eat late at night, Beyond Suya is a perfect go-to. I’ll definitely be back again soon. Highly recommend!“

“So authentic and tasty. yummy and feels like herby spicy. thank you“

“It's Kenyan style food so the curry among other dishes will not be what you are used to. However, I did enjoy the added spices that the African style brings. I recommend everyone giving this restaurant a try. They have pool tables too. Tell Lindsey I sent you. Bon Appetit“

“First time trying this place, we were just craving a snack and saw it pop up on the app, so we gave it a shot. Honestly, really glad we did! The puff puff was warm, fresh, and delicious, and the plantains were just right, ripe and cooked to perfection. Definitely coming back to try more options.“

“Saw an amazing story about the food and owners of this restaurant- what a great story - thank you for being such a great role model and giving back to the community“

“Love this place. Walk in the door and immediately to the right is Lawd Shawarma! A wonderfully warm meal of fish & eggs with vegan bread and Christmas-spiced Sorrel / Hibiscus drink. No matter what they call the next respiratory illness, no matter if you need to starve a flu or feed a cold. Problem solved for me. Lawd! I thank you.“

“Excellent good and a lot of it!! I loved the food truck! Now I love the new restaurant in Potomac Mills! Come out and support Ghana Jollof!“

“During my trip to Maryland, I went to Christele’s Delights, the food here is absolutely delicious. I’m still dreaming about my meal. Each bite was a delight as the name said. The menu offers a wide of African’s variety in general and Cameroonian’s food in particular. Christele’s Delight s is just the place to be. Highly recommended!“

“My experience was good, just that I look like it gets better at night. The fish is good, just a little salty. The Achu was good, too abd the soya. For next time I will recommend coming at night for a better experience cause the evening looks cold that is not too lively.“

“yes yes and yes...one of my fave African spots in Beltsville“

“I thoroughly enjoyed the all-day Sunday brunch. The servers and manager were super attentive and welcoming. The food and drinks were delicious and the chef was very personable. Additionally, they allowed an older unhoused gentleman to sit in from the frigid temperatures and have a complimentary hot tea. Would totally recommend.“

“So much great and yummy cuisines to savor....Varieties of exotic drinks. Wines, spirits, etl.👌“

“Great restaurant Lounge with a variety of delicious food. A very friendly customer service that appreciates all customers. Try their spicy goat and suyer, and you'll thank me later. l.“
