African Restaurant — Restaurant in Memphis

I'm from Chicago and I've had some of the best foods you can eat. I love African food I had a place I use to go to in Chicago years ago called Tohans the food was the best African food that I and many of friends & family have ever had! I'm still searching for food as good as that restaurant. I'd like to also say that my step father was Nigerian and he & his family & friends cooked there native dishes all the time so I am well aware of what's really good and what's mediocre. The food at this restaurant was good. I tried the Egusi stew & the Saka-Saka. I enjoyed both. The portions of each dish was a fair size. The meal includes Fufu or white rice. I got rice. The sides of rice was generous. I do recommend this restaurant if you enjoy African cuisine! The exterior needs a make over so come for the food and not the building. They can make it more inviting maybe by tightening up the area and adding some cultural accents or large potted plants to make it look more established & inviting. Nevertheless the food is good & they have been there for years. Memphis is becoming more diverse and more people are coming wanting to eat more than just barbecue. This restaurant with its international menu is a gem for Memphis and I hope to see them flourish and encourage more foreigners to create restaurants & share there delicious foods so we can have more options to choose from. Oh! A little African music would be nice & inviting for people...

I recently had the pleasure of dining at the African restaurant on Mill Branch Road in Memphis, Tennessee, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm and friendly atmosphere that perfectly complemented the authentic ambiance.

I decided to try the Jollof rice with chicken, which was an excellent choice. The dish was flavorful, with perfectly seasoned rice and tender chicken that really made the meal memorable. It's clear that the chef takes great pride in delivering authentic cuisine that stays true to its roots.

The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, making sure that every visitor felt at home. Their service added to the overall enjoyable dining experience. Without a doubt, this restaurant is a treasure for anyone looking to indulge in delicious African cuisine in Memphis.

If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping by this fantastic restaurant for an authentic taste of Africa and a...

Have been frequenting this restaurant & also referring people. Lately the order keeps getting mixed up.. On separate occasions, the lady at the register (who says that she is the owner) has an attitude & asks at least 4 times what I ordered. Instead of being polite, she gets argumentative with customers. She even took the food back & said that she refuses to sale me food after we both exchanged words..No cursing involved.. If an owner refuses a sale.. Why are they in business? She seriously needs to get it together. I don't want to have to repeat my order 4-6 times. WRITE IT DOWN ✍ LADY & loose the attitude!! Represent the business better than that! The cooks deserve all of the praise🙌Food is DELICIOUS!! They came out on 2 separate occasions to diffuse the misunderstanding! Sad! People just trying to eat & not argue...
