Thought it was popeyes but the food was good

Okay soup, poor quality swallow. The swallow was dripping in liquid, it was too sticky and not was not beaten properly. The soup is okay, thick. The meat however is overdone.

Literally the worst experience ive ever had at a restaurant ever. The staff is rude and the owner is worse. So disrepectful to the customers, especially if you dont speak their native languange. I thought the food would make up for my experience but it did not. I woudn’t reccomend i shouldve listened to my friends and went to the one on 167!

Purchased waakye today. Service was good. However, the waakye smelled burnt which was super disappointing 'cos it could've been delicious. Sadly, after taking a couple of spoons of it...I threw it away. I'm not sure why getting good/authentic waakye in NYC especially in the Bronx has become laborious.

As a first-gen Ghanaian American, I've always craved the authentic flavors of my parents' homeland. Papaye African Restaurant in the Bronx is a culinary haven that transports me straight to Ghana! The aromas, the spices, the tender meat... every bite is a taste of nostalgia and cultural pride.

I appreciate the simplicity of the menu, which allows the chefs to focus on perfecting the traditional dishes that have been passed down through generations. The jollof rice is a staple, and Papaye's version is a masterclass in flavor and technique.

As a first-gen, it's beautiful to see my culture celebrated and shared with the community. Papaye African Restaurant is more than just a meal - it's a connection to my heritage, a celebration of our traditions, and a reminder of the rich cultural legacy that shapes my identity.
