Mama African Restaurant — Restaurant in Conyers

My husband wanted some African food today b/c his friend told him how good it was. My husband's friend actually found this spot and we decided to follow suit and try it. I will say that it is discouraging at first b/c of how discreet the location is and how it "looks" once you're in there. It is inside of the Mini Mall, and we entered on the opposite side, but was gladly pointed in the right direction by ppl at the entrance.

This was our first time ever having African food, so we were a bit apprehensive, (especially by the appearance). But the thing that kept us there was the high health score of a 93!! Yaay!! I can do that!

There was only one person working at the time, but it wasn't busy...at all! I will say don't be misled by the location or the atmosphere...the food was worth it! Oh, and they have only been open for 8 months.

My husband got the Egusi soup w/FuFu. It was good! The FuFu isn't for me b/c I'm a texture person, and the texture was a no for me! However, the Egusi was bomb, very flavorful!! My husband liked it too! We had the peppers put on the side, and boy, are we glad! HEAT over-load!! Hot going in...and HOTTEST coming out!! But I can handle the heat, the hubby on the other hand can NOT!!LOL!

We will mos. def. go back to try other options...

My daughter and I went Saturday, the guy that was in kitchen too his time coming to take our order. When he finally came while telling him our order he answered his phone. I ordered okra stew and my daughter ordered egusi w/fufu. I should’ve known something was wrong because there wasn’t a scent of food coming from the kitchen. When he finally brought out the food he opened each bowl, the okra stew meal bowl was half full with 3 small pieces of lamb. I ask if he could add more stew he said it’s full enough, he had the worst attitude and customer service. I even offered to pay extra for more stew. Well I’m glad I didn’t get it because the food was tasteless both orders the lamb turned out to be old boiled beef with no flavor. And my daughter food was suppose to have lamb and she got Turkey. I will never recommend this place to anyone. It was expensive in price and the food was trash. Basura. 0 out of 10 wouldn’t recommend...

I just want to take the time to applaud this restaurant for being so accommodating. That is extremely hard to find in this day and age. I called and they origanally did not pick up, but a gentleman called back right back.I asked if there was an egusi that was suitable for someone who is plant based and eats fish sometimes. Dee (not sure if he is an employee or the owner, if is an employee he needs a raise) stated that he would make me some without meat. He asked exactly what I was looking to order. I stated that I wanted egusi and red snapper. Needless to say my food was outstanding and didn’t see the light of day for too long. I really appreciate good customer service and great food. I WOULD VISIT THIS PLACE AGAIN JUST BECAUSE I KNOW THEY APPRECIATE CUSTOMERS. I appreciate them too! Thank you Dee for your help and the wonderful food you made! Well done,...
