Sankofa Cafe & Bar serves delicious Jamaican cuisine in a cozy, welcoming atmosphere with friendly staff. The oxtails are a highlight—tender, falling off the bone, and packed with heavenly flavors. The menu features a variety of options, including the Mattie plate with three meats and two sides, as well as mixed plates with flavorful jerk chicken, curry chicken, and oxtails. The dishes are seasoned well and full of flavor, making it a great spot for those who enjoy spicy and authentic Jamaican food. The restaurant offers limited indoor seating and mostly serves food to go, often accompanied by live music, adding to the lively vibe. Customers have praised the reasonable prices and the deliciousness of the food, especially the jerk chicken salad, which is so good that some customers purchase extra for their next meal. The friendly staff and the nostalgic fried plantains add to the overall positive experience, making Sankofa Cafe & Bar a must-visit for Jamaican food lovers.
