The Truro

African restaurant

👍👍 Very tasty food and great service. Many dishes are quite spicy but there are some great non spicy ones too. Would be nice if it had a few more vegetarian options, but the salads are delicious and large. Overall a great addition to the high street as it's quite unique and is reasonably priced. No alc...

Manjaros Southall

African restaurant

👍👍 Afro/Caribbean cuisine with a twist of Asian/desi I would say. A good selection of dishes and options. The staff are friendly and attentive. The food was prepared and presented nicely and tasted very good. The standout point for me is that the portion sizes are very generous and filling. At a time w...

Ijinle

African restaurant

👍👍 I was very surprised to find out we have a Nigerian food outlet here in Barnet. Initially, I was skeptical as to how the quality of the food will be, taste etc. Man, was I blown away by the quality and how delicious the food is. I've been there twice in the last 2 weeks already. I'm more than impres...

Heritage Kitchen and Bar

African restaurant

👍👍 Went to Heritage for dinner last night with family. I ordered Fufu in Peanut Butter Soup with Beef, Chicken Suya and a large Star beer. I was initially apprehensive about ordering meat as other African restaurants’ meat are often stale. This was not the case for Heritage. Definitely fresh. The meat...

The Genet Cafe - Ethiopian Restaurant

Ethiopian restaurant

👍👍 One of the best food experiences I’ve ever had. This place proves you don’t need Michelin stars, 8 course taster menus and a sommelier to be a great restaurant. I had a platter of different items (vegan) which were all super tasty. Mixed veg, lentils, chickpeas, flat fermented bread. All divine....

Livi's Cuisine

African restaurant

👍👍 I have to say that the food are delicious and portion size is generous. Waakye with fish is to die for. The only downside of this restaurant is the wait time…(which was mentioned in some previous reviews as well). I ordered through Uber and I waited almost 90 mins for the food (excl driver’s deliver...

Pitanga

West African restaurant

🫤 My partner and myself have been to Pitanga 4 times, two of them we had a good experience and two of them it was awful. I cannot understand how someone is offering Nigerian food in a restaurant and disrespects those who come from the land! Unfortunately the bad experiences have overpowered the good o...

😠 Very rude staff.

Big Town - Delivery Only

African restaurant

😠 I came to the store today to get food to take home and ordered jollof rice with beef and egusi soup with beef. Why the hell did the egusi soup come with beef stew which wasn't what I asked for in the first place same as the jollof, as i have ordered here before and the beef wasn't infused in stew a...

Maestro Bar Restaurant London

African restaurant

😠 This place is not worth visiting and the positive reviews are probably fake, dishonest or paid for. I can already predict that this restaurant serves only a Cameroonian community. It can never grow to the standard of an average restaurant with the horror they entertain people with. So, I went there...

Mama Cook Restaurant & Bar

African restaurant

👍👍 Lovely African restaurant located in Feltham. I ordered goat curry, the meat was very tender, juicy and succulent, came right of the bone. The rice was also very nutty, which complimented the meat well, whilst the sauce was flavourful. The fried plantains were soft and tender.I highly recommend anyo...
