Mamusa's African Restaurant

I had never come to this restaurant before and was excited and nervous to try. I was scared for nothing my fineky eating has always been a issue. I had the jollof rice and the spicy spaghetti and wow just wow how perfect was this paring. My 4yd daughter was with me she had the mac n cheese actually finished the while thing lol thats highly unusual for her so that speaks volumes.We each had a corn bread and I swear the flavors made me cry I have never felt more fat but it's insanely delicious. Outstanding customer service the young lady even remember my daughter name. I said my daughters name only 1 time to correct my babygirl for being extra. The lady remembered it and spoke to her by mane it made my daughter so happy. On our way to leaving I had to let them know what an outstanding job they have done. The atmosphere is wonderful, music is family friendly, food is extraordinary, the chef as well as the nice lady at the desk just made me feel at home. Don't taken my words for it drive on down and get you a plate of this fresh, hot, mouthwatering food.

Kid-friendliness: My daughter felt so at home she asked to go hug the nice lady.

The food here is delicious. The greens and fried fish are my favorite. The customer service for the most part is good, but could be better. I will definitely return.

Food was amazing and reasonably priced! Got there shortly after opening and was so happy to see all of the options. It's charged by weight and I paid $30 for 2.15 lbs of food (2 full to go containers) and a homemade juice. Some of the best African food I've had in awhile. Definitely will be back!!

Went here for ox tail on my birthday. We ended up getting a sampler tray from the buffet as well. For me, the things that really stood out were the Nigerian Jollof, plantains, jerk chicken, and chicken and fish greens. For my wife, it was the plantains, fried chicken wings, curry chicken, and fried trout. So, pretty much everything. XDThe ladies running the place were very sweet and helpful. And the atmosphere was warm, friendly, and inviting. Overall,vit was an excellent choice for a birthday dinner. Thanks!

In the area for a show at the theater. Saw this restaurant and been wanting to try. The food is amazing and so flavorful. You can do the buffet, which I did so I can try a bit of everything. Or order from the menu. The staff is so friendly. Guided meditation through buffet and what goes together. It has veggies and vegan dishes so meets all needs. Love the ginger teas. I got ginger and pineapple. Definitely, check it out your taste buds and tummy will thank you.

Vegetarian options: Clearly label veggie and vegan options.

If you want delicious authentic West African food in Richmond, this is the place. The vibe is friendly. No frills, just genuine. Groove to Afrobeats playing in the background as you dine in or wait for your take-out.

The experience is dedicated to fulfilling a journey through Liberia, from the moment you step into the door. The sounds of African music, the aroma of authentic Liberian food, the homemade addicting drinks, the homemade desserts, the African style popcorn and so much more! If you come once believe me you'll be back...

Vegetarian options: Egusi Vegetarian with FuFu, Jollof Rice, Tofu tastefully made oh! The detox Tea is clearly a healthy choice!
