African Restaurants near Lynnwood, WA

“I found this place on Google and I decided to try it tonight. I have bend on the same shopping center many times before but I have never noticed this place. They need to do something with the sign or the front window stating it's an African Restaurant.

I ordered the Lamb dish and it was great. The owner was such a nice lady and the Bob Marley music was nice too. I will definitely go back.“

“Friendly, welcoming staff. Food was amazing. Eat here!“

“Family owned restaurant in Shoreline. The lady who I assume is the owner, is very sweet. I came here a few weeks ago and ordered Jollof rice with lamb and fufu & egusi soup. The Jollof rice was amazing!! ??? a little heat to it but nothing overbearing. I feel that the amount of lamb was much too little though. I guess the Jollof rice is the star of the dish (not too mad at it).
It was my first time trying egusi and I did not like it. Don’t let that dissuade you though, it’s most likely my tastebuds seeing as I don’t like fish that much & crayfish is in it. I would definitely come back regularly for that Jollof rice if it wasn’t so far from me! Come check out this small owned business!“

“Amazing kebabs! The plantains were delicious, I loved their food so much :)“

“We'd always wondered about Adulis Eritrean and Ethiopian restaurant on Greenwood at Holman Road. We stopped in late last night (they're open until 10 every night) for dinner, and it was superb.

The injera—all teff, and made in-house—was some of the best I've ever tasted. The standout dish for us was the Alicha Lamb Tibs. But we also got the excellent beef platter with assorted beef dishes, each one flavored distinctively. The platter included a feta-like cheese, gomen (collard greens), and a bright, fresh salad lightly dressed with oil. There is also a vegetarian platter with lentils, split peas, cabbage, and potatoes—the perfect dinner, I think, would be the two platters!

Two dishes are a lot for two people, it turned out, but we took leftovers home. This is a restaurant I plan to return to on a regular basis. While some dishes are spicy, they are not over-spiced and are not at all heavy. This speaks of high-quality ingredients and attentive cooking.

The restaurant interior is quite basic--small tables in the front, booths in the middle, and larger tables for families at the back. The music, not too loud, was from Punjabi Bhangra videos! Many of the diners were clearly regulars, but as newcomers, we felt welcome and very well taken care of.“
