Palace Gate Restaurant - Ghanaian cuisine

This place offers you the rare opportunity to taste Ghanian food.
Some dishes are very spicy so be careful.
I highly recommend anything with plantains.
The only reason I gave it fewer stars is that they don't have prices on the menu and I kinda suspect they just pick a number based on how you look.
I had an appetizer that cost the same as an entree and was definitely overpriced.
But, it was all delicious!

Overall Thoughts: This is a small, homey family restaurant serving up traditional, delicious Ghanaian dishes.
There was only one other party there when we came for dinner on a Sunday.
My only suggestions are around the menu… it’s pretty hard to navigate if you have no prior knowledge of or experience trying Ghanaian cuisine, as there are no descriptions or even prices on the menu.
It would’ve definitely been helpful to know the prices before ordering, but the prices seemed overall reasonable when we got the receipt at the end.
The server (who seemed to be the owner’s daughter) helped answer any questions we had, and the food came out pretty quick.
Otherwise, the food is wonderful and bursting with flavor— would totally recommend! Food I tried: - Kenkey with Fish (4.7/5): I liked this dish best out of everything we ordered.
The kenkey itself had great starchy, umami flavor, and its soft, mushy texture paired perfectly with the fish which was crispy, well-fried, and flavorful.
Combined the spicy shito and onions and neutral tomato, all the flavors came together perfectly. - Beans (Red Red) with Egg and Plantains (4.5/5): There weren’t a lot of vegetarian options on the menu, but this dish was a delicious, filling option.
The beans were full of flavor and the plantains were some of the best I’ve ever had— they were perfectly fried and the oil brought out their maximal sweetness and softness. - Jollof Rice with Chicken (4.6/5): This was another favorite dish.
The jollof was full of spice and flavor, and comes with plantains and your choice of protein.
The chicken was super tender and fell off the bone; doused in flavorful sauce, the flavors were robust and hearty. - Peanut Soup with Rice Ball (3.6/5): I wasn’t a huge fan of the peanut soup here… It wasn’t as peanut buttery as I would’ve hoped, but I recommend getting the rice ball with it, if you order this dish.
It’s slightly sweet on its own, and really soaked up the flavor of the soup. - Waakye with Beef (4/5): This was pretty good and flavorful.
The beef was tender and the rice and beans were flavorful. — Price (relative to peers): 4.3/5 Food: 4.4/5 Ambience: 4.3/5 Service: 4.8/5 Overall Value: 4.5/5

food was delicious and it was ready fast! i had the beef jollof rice with plantains and it slapped, it was a huge portion for 23 bucks not including tip
