“Suya suya is literally my favorite place to eat in the fishtown/northern liberties area. I come here almost everyday after work and the food here is amazing. It reminds me of Nigeria. The atmosphere is amazing and the food is the best. My favorite dish is definitely the egusi and rice combo. Garba the manager is very welcoming and friendly. I feel like a part of the family every time I come here. If you are looking for a good place to eat and want great African food this is the place to be.“

“The food was amazing. The decor gave the restaurant a nice African flare and not too much. Their level of hospitality was top-notch, we met the chef/owner and her son. The music was nice. Overall, we had a wonderful experience for African Restaurant Week!“

“Ahh-mazing! Authentic African cuisine and everyone was soo welcoming. Traveled from Chestertown, MD and it was well worth it!“

“It's best to call in first and pick up your order. This place gets packed but you'll never know because most orders are done by phone.
Portions are hefty. It's family run and owned. The customer service is excellent, they make all their customers feel like family. ♥️
All the dishes are excellent.“

“My absolute favorite "Go to place" for some Dibi and Plantain. Delicious and mouth watering onion sauce, Lamb is grilled to perfection, with the tantalizing sweetness of the plantain that just melts away in your mouth. I am a reliable customer and approve of them being one of the best African restaurants I know who never disappoints, especially when it comes down to consistency and good taste.Their unique touch on this particular dish is a 10 out of 10.Their speciality and best seller is the Dibi and Plantain I can assure you of that.I recommend and support this business 100%“

“I stopped in because I found the restaurant on Phillyblackowned.com, a map for black owned businesses in Philly. I'm so happy that I found this business. The owner is very friendly, made me feel welcomed, and the food is delicious. I ordered the lamb with rice, and it was so tasty, I had to share my experience. I'll definitely be back.“

“Try it and you will keep coming back for more. The best in Philly.“

“First time eating at an Ethiopian cuisine, was not what I was expecting. The food was delicious and the service was fantastic. Definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone. In fact I also bought the spices to add to my cooking.“

“We had a mixed box of Brownies from Sonia over the weekend and they were amazing. Would definitely recommend you try them if you haven’t already. I’m sure we will be placing another order very soon. We had the Double Chocolate, the Nutella and the Caramel flavours. Yummy. Thank you Sonia“

“Food critic here! Let me give you the Real Real about Prime 😉. I will write about one of my orders; Rasta Pasta with charred grilled shrimp. I had a pleasant experience. I’m originally from the UK, and it’s worth noting that historically African dining style restaurants are fairly rare in Philadelphia. If you’re looking for oversized portions typical of a traditional African restaurant, this isn’t that and it’s not advertised to be.
*Disclaimer* parking is hard to find, in the area its close to the downtown area so Uber to avoid the stress.

Prime Fusion is a smaller establishment, so the bar selection is more limited than what you’d find at larger venues. That said, it has the essentials especially when it comes to tequila.

Service was excellent. I came on a Wednesday night there was no wait. Look I dont need my waiter to do backflips to keep us entertained 😂. I came here to EAT! Hey im a jester myself so ill make a jokes. Our server introduced herself, gave us ample time to review the menu, we had bottled waters, she answered questions clearly, and remained attentive throughout the evening. The drinks were a 10/10.

A little love in the food might go a long way. Still, the music was good, prices were fair for dining out, and the overall vibe was enjoyable. I’d definitely return to see how the kitchen continues to improve.“

“New era Indian cuisine is very spacious they have free parking.

“The drinks are good. nice atmosphere and great food“

“The location is pretty basic but clean and comfortable. The ladies are very sweet and kind. My food has always been good, except the one time I ordered it on doordash. Otherwise, I get the lamb, plantains, and Jollof rice. Also, the potatoe greens are good. Wish they had a seafood one, but they make do.“

“palava sauce is incredibly delicious“

“Even after they changed locations (right next door) Food prices are reasonable considering the size of their dishes. I love their lamb and rice platters, for $22 depending on who you are you'll have enough food to feed yourself and others if you want. Great place for something to eat that's not your everyday fast food..“

“The food is very good. I've had different dishes different times of the year. They serve many African dishes, a few American dishes, they're all very good. You may have to use cash if no one's available to accept your debit card. It's easy accessible by car and by public transportation.

Parking: It's located on busy 52nd Street. There's street parking, also parking at the kiosk. There's also parking on the side streets.“

“This place????? It was my first time to order with them and trust me when I say this is the best restaurant if you’re looking for fufu with soup especially the EGUSSI soup 😩😩. The portion is amazing and the taste I can’t describe it!“

“My review is focused on the food and food alone. I get the same thing every time! Jollof rice and goat meat and it hits EVERYTIME! I know good food and I love this particular meal from them.“
