The Taste of Africa serves Congolese cuisine in Syracuse, offering a unique dining experience. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, with a lively vibe that includes music, a pool, and foosball tables, along with a small market attached. While the food is the main attraction, the personable service from the owner makes guests feel like friends. Menu highlights include the tilapia in tomato and pepper sauce with fufu, crispy fried plantains, ribs, curry dishes with distinct central African spicing, and the wholesome selection of West African dishes like egusi soup and fish with spinach. Many customers enjoy the fufu with ox tail and other soups, finding it flavorful and filling. Vegans can enjoy the bean dish, and dishes like chicken with okra are also popular. Prices are around market rate, making it accessible for most. For those seeking new flavors and a friendly atmosphere, The Taste of Africa is a great choice.
