African Restaurants near Woodbridge, VA

“So amazing delicious that we back for more“

“Excellent good and a lot of it!! I loved the food truck! Now I love the new restaurant in Potomac Mills! Come out and support Ghana Jollof!“

“THE BEST AFRICAN RESTAURANT EVER IN VIRGINIA and the entire DC/MD area in my opinion. I am not from Ghana but as an African, her food gives you that West African food taste! Her Okro soup is my favorite. Her Banku taste just like Fufu from Naija and Cameroon, so you get that good taste of “eba and Fufu” . She’s just the best! She gives enough food for your moneys worth! She’s very friendly , clean and good vibe. I eat here weekly and I am looking forward trying all her meals. But , okro soup and Banku is my Favorite!“

“I have been going here for years! Love the food and the owner is an amazingly kind guy who treats every customer with respect and professionalism. Did I mention the food is amazing! I have eaten everything on the menu and never dissatisfied. Def try the Cassava leaf with goat meat or the Egusi stew with banku! And all soups are delicious. The food can be definitely be considered comfort food.“

“I had such an incredible time exploring the bold and authentic flavors at this spot. The jollof rice was perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of spice, and the meat was so tender it practically melted off the bone. It feels like a true community hub where the atmosphere is warm and the portions are huge, so I definitely didn't leave hungry. The staff was very helpful in explaining the different traditional dishes, making the whole experience feel like a welcoming invitation into a different culture. Rahama African Restaurant is a fantastic place to visit if you want a real, home-cooked meal that is full of heart.“

“One of the best restaurants in the DMV!“

“This place is AMAZING. Everyone was super kind. We dined in and spoke with the owner. Beautiful personality and sweet soul. You can taste it in her cooking. They gave us a bowl to wash our hands which I thought was very thoughtful. Will be coming back for the Ghana Cake. 🥰“

“My favorite is the waakye ( Rice & beans). I’ve tried waakye in Ghana and most of the big cities in the states but this one is a must try. Lately moved out of Va and my only ask from anyone visiting me is just that. Adding to my experience is auntie Rose, who prepares and serves with joy. Thank you auntie Rose.“

“Great store and staff! Visited earlier to get someone some traditional Ghana 🇬🇭 food. The guy in the line in front of me was super nice and explained some food items to me like: corn 🌽 mixed with peanut 🥜 butter 🧈 and ginger. 🫚 If you don’t like ginger 🫚 you probably won’t like some of the items. The wife wasn’t a fan. I thought it was delicious and much better than the lemonade we made at Deliver Lean; that was the most ginger thing I have ever had 😂 it burned to drink that stuff. Anyway, great staff, great food, smelled amazing!!! Wish I had tried more stuff cause the meats smelled amazing. Muslim friendly as it had a sign praising Allah. I’m a barefoot 🦶 servant of Lord Jesus and know that The Holy Spirit watches over all the children of God Almighty no matter what name. Also, the cops posted outside made it feel more safe and secure. Wish I’d take more photos. The music was awesome!! Wife had to made me stop snapping 😂“
