“Loved it here. Great staff, lovely atmosphere/vibe, great music, and the food was soooo tasty. We did the tasting menu, and it’s what I recommend for you if you’re visiting for the first time. Once you’ve tried everything you’ll come back knowing exactly what you want. 10/10 Will be back. Duck Jollof was 🔥🔥. Appetizer with roti was 🔥🔥, ginger beer 🔥🔥🔥, scallops were 🔥🔥(not sure if these were on the menu), desserts were all 🔥, and the portions were not skimpy like some other restaurants of a similar caliber.“

“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.“

“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“

“Got the chicken kebab sandwich, jollof, and palm wine. Kebab was really flavorful, juicy, with some chipotle sauce that was delicious. The jollof was good too, spicy and not too dry. Was not a fan of the palm wine but the more you know! Would definitely come back, I want to try the snapper“

“Wow, after everything I have heard and the awards this place has received, I had high expectations. My TLDR is that some of those expectations were met, others were not.

I have been wanting to try Dogon for a while, my boyfriend finally got a res for my birthday dinner. The food was great, some of it was excellent (Ben’s Bowl, ugh that sauce!!), our server was helpful and met expectations, but I cannot look past feeling rushed during my dining experience with Dogon. Especially when the booking says to plan to be there for at least 2 hours, reservations are so hard to get, and the staff KNEW we were there to enjoy an occasion. Plates were being cleared while we were not done with dishes, or we still had food in our mouths. We felt rushed eating, we felt rushed to place an order, and pressured to order everything for the table at once. We were going to order a bottle of wine, but we felt there would not be enough time to enjoy it. In total we were in and out of the restaurant in an hour and 15 minutes for a full birthday dinner. I want to make crystal clear that our server was great, and this issue isn’t on one person. It is on the service team and their communication with the kitchen.

My dad was the head chef at one of the most popular restaurants in NYC for a long time, I know what is a reasonable expectation of a high volume, high end restaurant, and what isn’t. Pacing is something the restaurant is in full control of. Dogon should look into improving here. Even with this issue, I would still go back to try more of the menu.“

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

“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!“

“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.“

“Great Saturday party lit!!!!!“

“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!“

“Simply delicious meal and value for my money“

“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!“

“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.“

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

“Tried for the first time and the food was really good. I got the okra soup with goat meat and pounded yam fufu. The staff was helpful. The portion size was a bit small (only comes with two pieces of goat meat but you can purchase more) and it was expensive (I paid and $25).“

“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?“
