African Restaurants near Hopkins, MN

“People are incredibly nice and the food is outstanding. More of a takeout place rather than a dine in. But don’t let that stop you the food is so flavorful and tasty. I got the chicken suqaar and beef sambusa and both were perfectly spiced. I have a shellfish allergy and lactose intolerance and I could handle this food! Highly recommend!“

“Good stuff for takeout. Big portions ad filling. They were out of what I was going to initially order, but don’t let that intimidate you. Just ask what they do have or what they might recommend. The guy working the kitchen let my friend and I try a couple different types of meat that were both great since we hadn’t had it before. Sambusas were good too but are spicier meat.“

“Best chicken sambusa everrrrr… hands down! Customer service 10/10
Food 10/10 I got the goat meat with the rice and boy I’m telling you if i had to pick my last meal on earth it would probably be this goat dish! Also they not stingy with they food too, I good a good Portion for what I paid for! Masoud is so nice come see this man!“

“My daughter and I just visited Friday night and enjoyed authentic Somalian food served by super helpful, friendly people. We had the camel and the goat and each were fantastic. I thoroughly enjoyed talking with Bibi who explained the food and how it related to Somalian culture. I would love to go back again“

“Just moved to the area and was getting some essentials from the Dollar Tree a few doors down and spotted the open sign and knew I needed to go in.
Service was quick and friendly—got Cassava Leaf and Pepper Soup so far and both were “valid” as the kids say. Excited to come back and try more!“

“OMG Im addicted to this place. The food is so delicious unlike the rest of these African restaurants in BP….this is the one for me. Very courteous staff & cook. Safe environment and most importantly the food is delicious. I usually make my African food at home but my husband found this place and now he got me hooked. It’s worth every dime.Stop eating the salty oily food in BP… come here for the best African experience & good good food“

“I was driving by and did a double take when I saw their sign. I decided to stop in to see what they offered because Nigerian restaurant menus tend to vary. It’s a small carryout only spot. The woman working there was very nice and accommodating. I informed her that I’m vegan and inquired about a few of my favorite Nigerian foods: egusi, greens, jollof, and beans. She didn’t have egusi. She stated that she had greens but they’re made with fish. She then offered to make me a fresh batch sans the fish if I had time to wait. I most certainly do! It wasn’t a long wait either. I got a hefty container of food for about $15. There was enough food for 2 days (if I wasn’t being greedy).I tried my food right away. The greens were very good and clearly freshly made with quality produce. The beans were good. The jollof rice was SLAMMIN!! Perfection in the flavor department!I’m unsure how long they’ve been open, but they seem fairly new. They’re located in a strip mall with other small, locally owned businesses. Again, it’s carryout only; you cannot sit in and eat. (I ate in my car.) They also offer catering services.Be sure to check out this spot if you’re in the MSP area.

“I got the lamb gyro with sweet potato fries for lunch and wow! The amount you get for the price is phenomenal! The sauce for the fries needs to come in a bottle...I'd put it on everything! The sandwich can come in different applications like a bowl, wrap or salad. I got the gyro on pita and barely got through half because of the amount of delicious lamb! This will definitely be my new spot in the skyway.“
