Taste of Africa

The owner of this restaurant is a very nasty old woman. She has no manners and zero decorum. I called on Thursday, March 9 and told her I wanted to order jollof rice and she was super aggressive and rude on the phone. If you lack customer service skills, why don’t you do your business a favour and let the young lady that works for you take over the customer service department because she is more professional and understands how to deal with public. I know you are an angry, nasty, aged out and miserable old woman but please try and work on your customer service skills and stop being toxic to customers.

Went there a 2nd time to get my jollof rice fix. They were pretty busy bc it was dinnertime on a Friday night before long weekend. It's a good idea to call in your order ahead of time if, esp if you want to order their egusi and fufu.I had the jerk honey chicken with jollof rice, wanted to add plantains again but they sold out. I like the chicken more than the beef bc it has a different flavour to contrast the jollof rice. Next time I'm going to get their signature dish - egusi and fufu.Finally got to try this place!!! And it did not disappoint, it is the best African restaurant I've ever tried. I ordered the beef stew with jollof rice and added the plantains. I loved how they had different flavors to balance the heat of the beef stew and jollof rice. The plantains were sweet and nutty and the creamy coleslaw really helped with the heat. I will come back next time to try their other dishes.

Nice african restaurant in Surrey.The owner is very friendly and nice. She was calm and attended to use nicely. She said we would love the jollof and she was right.The jollof with Full Tilapia fish was fantastic. The jerk chicken was great too.The restaurant atmosphere was okay and good for dinning and for meet ups with friends.Their food is really great and tasty.Not many food options remained around closing time of 8.30pm.The restaurant is easy to locate as it is right on the road side.

I am a straight up white kid that knows nothing about African food, and this was absolutely amazing. The honey jerk chicken was gas. Need more chicken. Very nice people

The food was a new experience for me. I really loved all the flavours and the plantains were superb. The honey jerk chicken was really good too. I would definitely go back here

The flavours and food is absolutely delicious! First time here and will definitely be back. Intended to try the fufu, but it requires 30 mins prep, so I got the rice, beans and chicken - and it was so good! I will be calling ahead next time so I can try more. The friendliness and generosity of the people inside makes one feel instantly welcome. I ended up here given some recommendations and being told it's the most authentic African cuisine, and the customers inside confirmed it all. Yum!

I've been here twice now, getting the egushi with fufu and peanut soup with eba. Both had a ton of flavor and were delicious. I love how the soups are served piping hot with a good amount of spicy heat. I've never had west African food prior, and it was like a flavor explosion in my mouth. I'm looking forward to trying the rest of the menu!
