Good food, and the man at the counter was very polite and welcoming.
Tried Mama Africa with my parents today. It was overall the best dining experience we've collectively had in a long time. The lady at who served us was wonderful. She took the time to go through each menu item, how it's made, where it originates. Really got the whole experience and the food was absolutely amazing, different from what we are used to but an layered explosion of flavors that hits in all the right ways. We will be back.
I met Geneviece today ( first time customer) who clearly explained the menu and their cooking styles. She was very passionate about her place and food and it resonated 100% in the food !!! I had the Merguez sandwich. Every bit of it was spectacular from the baguette to the sauce and vegetables. Mostly the sausage!!!! Can’t wait to try more.
Very friendly and helpful service, and the Mergeuz Sandwich was delicious.
Had The Motherland Chicken Crunch. Amazing. Delicious. Already craving it again!
I had the Yass King burger and poutine.
Both were very very flavourful - the marinade on the chicken was excellent.
Also: the lady working the cash/front counter was super friendly and made suggestions about the menu. She even asked if I had any allergies!!
Pricing was right around what I would expect to pay for lunch
5/5 overall

Wow! Literally just finished the halloumi veggie sammy (omg!!! Amazing!!) And the veggie stew (rich, complex, yummy!). So excited to have something like this close by. Excellent and friendly service. The pineapple ginger juice was refreshing and crisp. Highly recommend!
Delicious! First time trying west African cuisine, so we tried three different dishes between us and all were so good!! Thieboudienne, mafé, and the merguez sandwich. So tasty and flavourful. The bissap and baobab juice were also so refreshing.

Amazing food and supermarket!
Vegetarian options: The couscous is to die for! The beobak drink is so delicious!
Very delicious food at a great price with really friendly staff. Highly recommend the Mafé which is beef in a fantastic savoury peanut sauce over rice. The Chicken Yassa was great too, more mild with lots of sautéed onions. Nice selection of west African dry goods too, spices, fufu flours. Always something to discover!
