African Restaurants in Brooklyn, NY

“Amazing flavor and service“

“Incredible vibe. Unique vinyl selection, amazing food, and a host who has mastered the art of the evening. It feels like dining at the house of someone with impeccable taste in both spice and sound. The speakers are the absolute star of the room—crisp, warm, and perfectly tuned to the space. 10/10, would move in if I could.“

“I really like their steak suya bowl, it's spicy and has a healthy serving of veggies and we'll flavored meat. Definitely recommend“

“I had an incredible dining experience here! The food is packed with authentic flavors and rich spices that make every bite delicious. The service was top-notch, and the atmosphere felt super welcoming and cozy. If you are looking to try delicious, authentic African dishes, this place is an absolute must-visit!“

“Awash is always a good time! The food is amazing and the combos are always worth it! Make sure to get the Ethiopian Lager, and wash your hands before you eat! They also have a shrimp option which is unusual for an Ethiopian spot. They were out of a few things but the beets, perils and lamb were the highlights.

If you get the combo, I would just stay away from the chicken or ask to sub it, it wasn’t very good and was clearly geared toward a more sensitive palate.

I am a frequent flyer at their Harlem location.“

“This place is cash only!
I was in the neighborhood, so I looked up places to get Nigerian food and then I found this spot.
I was really excited to try my first jollof rice.
Talking to the owners,
I explain that I would only like to do vegetables and jollof rice, no meat.
They were very understanding and gave exactly what I asked for. Because there was no meat the price was different.

The food was delicious, thank you for a wonderful meal.
When I am done abstaining from meat, I will come back for their fufu and okra soup with goat. I look forward to trying that for the first time as well.“

“Good and tasty food. Neat environment. Pleasant owners and staff.“

“My family and I were in the area and were looking for somewhere to eat. We walked into the restaurant, and the aroma from the food told me all I needed to know. Though we didn’t understand the dishes, the staff ensured that we understood what we were ordering. The food was so good! We had lamb and chicken with jollof rice and salad. The food was plenty and very delicious! We definitely will be coming back!“

“Excellent great customer services“

“Very nice experience. Small outlet but they can be forgiven, this is New York, everything is expensive. Meat was well cooked, fried and very tasty. Fish was the best I’ve had in a while and their gbegiri and ewedu is epic. Great place to be“
