African Restaurants in Toronto, ON

“This is proper proper Nigerian resturant.

I ordered the yam and peppersauce

And fried rice and I almost licked off my fingers

Best Nigerian restaurant and will be my go to place from now on“

“We ordered the chicken, goat, plantains and jollof rice. Great meal, my favourite is the chicken. The plantains were not bad, I just prefer them more ripe. The rice was slightly drier than expected, but the goat had a lot of meat and not too much bones, which I honestly appreciate.
Service could be faster, but they were really nice.
Would definitely come back, this restaurant is a must-try!“

“After hiking and photographing from west of High Park to Dundas Square (with a number of detours and stops along the way), I needed refreshment. The problem was: who is open at 10:50pm at night? Piassa Injera (ፒያሳ እንጀራ ቅመማ ቅመም እና ቁርስ ቤት) was.

It was a great relief to find the door open, and cool bottles of water in the fridge at that hour. I loved the late night atmosphere inside the shop. There were a number of people around a table near the back having a good time, talking, laughing. This was like the old country where my family is from.

The shopkeeper helped me with my Amharic language skills, and then I was off to complete my task of photographing the neighbourhoods of Parliament Street. አመሰግናለሁ (I got the pronunciation now).“

“This is the most affordable Nigerian meal I’ve had since getting to Canada. I got the small gizzard with a side of Jollof rice and extra plantain. It was a good meal and I was soo full. It is a good enough portion if you’re someone who doesn’t have a large appetite. The interior was pretty nice. My friend and I had a lovely night. There was a man at the bar area when we got in and then a lady from the kitchen who attended to us and they were both soo nice!“

“This was my first time trying this type of food, and I will start off by saying that I will be going back here as much as possible! The food was absolutely delicious.Everyone who was working there was extremely kind and welcoming to my friend and myself. We each tried a bit of everything on the menu, and we had no complaints at all. We were amazed at how good it was. The chef even came out to say hi to us as we were leaving, which we found to be very nice! We were also shocked at the low prices for such high-quality fresh and home-cooked food. Thank you to everyone at Le Plato, we will be back!“

“Service here is top notch! The servers are so sweet and attentive. Marta and Salam were great! Bonus: food tastes great and is super authentic! 100% would recommend if you’re looking for Ethiopian cuisine. P.S. Get the timatim fit-fit, trust me.“

“Just ordered braised greens and Mafi stew with chicken!y mouth is LOVING the flavours. Absolutely delicious! The portions come with rice and I have enough leftover for lunch tomorrow. I got some absolutely delicious plantains complimentary as well! I'll definitely order again over and over - it's that good!“

“I had my colleagues over at Skcookks for lunch and the service was great.

Seyi and Opeyemi were amazing, they took my reservation and made sure we were served on time.

We also enjoyed the food especially the smoky Jollof Rice and the egusi soup with Gizzard.“

“Cannot recommend enough!!
This is my first time having Ethiopian food and all I can say is wow! The food is full of flavour and spice and is a very good portion for what you pay. I had the meat and veggie combo and it was both delicious and filling.
However the main thing that stood out to me was the service. I was there by myself as I was on a business trip and the lady (I wish I got her name) was just a delight. She was incredibly kind and you can tell she genuinely cares about her customers and their experience.
Please go and give this restaurant and their staff some love! 20/10“

The food also was cooked and seasoned to perfection.
I am definitely coming back to this location for more service.

“Growing up in the neighbourhood to the east of here, Moore Park, I was starving for anything interesting and authentic. I felt I grew up in the whitest and most sterile place in the universe and even wrote songs and traveled the world singing about how boring Canada is and how brainwashed the culture is. My neighbourhood was filled with boring white people and that's all and I went to live in Serbia and then Thailand to get the spice of life. On a short visit to visit my beloved family in Toronto, I was going home on Saturday night (23.06.2024) at 1AM and I noticed Maison Tribe. It was popping with Latino and African music. I went in and I felt welcome, even though I was the only white person there. I danced for a while and it was super fun. The opposite of the boring place I thought I was from. Thank you Maison Tribe.“
