Review by Evan Roberts

From the moment we stepped into Taste of West Africa, the warmth was palpable! The vibrant decor and friendly staff made us feel right at home. We indulged in the joloff rice and their mouthwatering goat kabob, perfectly tender and packed with flavor. 🌟

The crispy plantains were the highlight - a must-try! The personal touch from the owner and her mom truly elevated our experience.

I can't recommend this cozy spot enough for anyone craving authentic West African flavors. Can't wait to return! 🍽️
