West African Restaurants near Toronto, ON

“This was my first time trying Nigerian cuisine and I was blown away by the delicious food! Service was super friendly and accommodating as well. We started with the chicken wings tossed in hot honey with yaaji spice (ginger peanut bbq rub) -super crisp and juicy! We ordered spicy which was the perfect balance of heat and flavor. My favorite dish was the egusi and greens! My Nigerian friend ordered the pounded yam for me to eat the soup with. It’s like a thicker mashed potato, fresh and an excellent compliment to the savory soup! The soup was chock full of chicken and seasonings I couldn’t quite place, bold and savory flavor! We also ordered the cauliflower in a peanut sauce-perfectly fried and great to eat with the wings! My partner ordered the party jollof rice-delicious almost barbaque flavored rice layered with flavors of a seafood and sweet spice stock 😋 And the slow and plantains were the perfect accompaniments! I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for delicious food with lots of heart poured into it.“

“one of the best place to eat our traditional food in Toronto. Jellof rice, pepper snails and pepper goat meat was exquisitely delicious 😍❤💋💋“

“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.“

“This is the place to go if you want authentic Ghanaian dishes. Their waakye is one of the best I’ve had in the city and also their banku. Sometimes the owner gives me a free sobolo or ginger drink with my order because I am a consistent customer.“
