Why are you selling spoiled food???? I just bought banku and okro soup. So if your food is bad please throw them away and stop selling it….

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.

I live upstate NY and was expected to come get some amazing food. Nope my fufu taste burnt and the goat was still kicking in my soup. It's a 2/10 don't recommend. The price for what I got I thought was fantastic but I see why. They want that stuff gone at any cost. Would love to try it again maybe at another establishment.

My first time here. The food was extremely delicious and flavorful with just the perfect amount of spice. They give a generous amount of food also. I would definitely go back…no disappointments at all 10/10.

Stew is full of oil…. It’s ridiculousThe oil on the stew can be used to make another stew from scratch ??‍♂️??‍♂️??‍♂️And the taste of the food is highly inconsistent especially the jollofAny food that requires oil the oil weighs like 35% of the entire food.. hmm
