Amazing food, really enjoyed it.

Haseeb attended to us and he did so well with communication , he made us feel relaxed.

We came from London to visit Afrikana Leicester after hearing glowing reviews about it and safe to say everything was amazing from the decor to the food.. Special thanks to Toby and Freya who went above and beyond to ensure we had an amazing dinner and an amazing dining experience at Afrikana.. For starters we ordered the 'Hummus & Bread', 'Lady Fingers' (Deep Fried Okra) and 'Prawn To Be Wild' all tasted amazing in particular the Lady Fingers.. For mains we ordered the 'Island Fish & Chips' and the 'Steak It On Me' which was the spiced sirloin steak.. For the kids we ordered the peri coated fish fingers & chips and the smash burger & chips.. We was amazed at how big the portions were and how phenomenal each dish tasted. Thank you Afrikana Leicester for the amazing evening.. Highly recommended!!!

We were served by Haseeb, he was very nice and we had a very good customer service and the food was 10/10 as always.

Excellent food, service and ambience. Went here for dinner with friends for the first time and we'll defininitely be coming back.

We were served by Rumanah and Amna and they were super friendly and nice. Food was amazing, nice atmosphere

Excellent service from Rumanah and Amna. Food was great. :)

Haseeb was really helpful and certified guy

This was our first visit here and the food & the service was absolutely amazing. We was served by TY he looked after us I definitely recommend this place

Afrikana ! The upscale version of Nando's. A first-time visit, and I wasn't disappointed. I ordered a whole chicken with a mixed perinaise sauce, and it was delightful. The sauce has a little kick but isn't overly spicy. The fries and coleslaw complimented it well. The atmosphere was relaxed and laid back, and the service was good. I would visit again.

We were served by Talia who was very nice and efficient. The food came very quickly which was great and it tasted delicious.

It was my first time in Afrikana Leicester! Highly recommended! Everything was so fresh and hot when it came to our table. In love with their “We Goat Your Back” dish! The atmosphere and songs added to the great vibe as well! Special thanks to Rumanah who served us during our visit to Afrikana! Looking forward to come back again!

the service by talia was really good she was really nice

First time here.Food was amazing, Bunny Chow was so good.Will be back again.

Talia was servicing us today and she was really nice and respectful

Should have come here sooner - great food and hospitality. Had the goat curry, plantain and halloumi fries - all excellent. Portion for the curry could be slightly bigger, but the prep was delicious, the meats soft and flavoured! Rumanah had great banter, and took good care of us - promptly taking our food order, and checking on us.

Amazing place to eat atmosphere was lovely along with the service. Mahima was very welcoming as well as the other staff.

Very happy with the service, very friendly and patient. Mahima was very welcoming. Food was delicious. Thank you

4 of us went last night as we'd not been before. We arrived about 6.30 and were shown to a table. It was not busy but after 15 mins no one had been to take our order or drinks. We had to go to the bar and call someone. We ordered drinks and when they arrived we ordered food. When it came we all agreed the food was very good. One had fish & chips, 2 had fried chicken is life and 1 had 1/4 roast chicken with fries & rainbow slaw. After we'd eaten the table was cleared quickly and we ordered dessert. The young man who did this was very friendly and we shared a few silly jokes. The waitress who finally took our drinks & food order should take a moment to watch the waiter as she was quite abrupt and not friendly. Even when we left we said the meal was very good and she just said goodnight! It's a shame as that one person can put customers off returning. Being advertised as African/ Caribbean, apart from, paintings on the walls it could have been anywhere really.

Rumanah was very helpful and friendly with a smile. Food was lovely but was a bit cold in the restaurant. She tried to turn the heating up for us too . Thank you x

The food was amazing and my server Rumanah was amazing, thank you for the great service

Went to Afrikana for my birthday lunch. The food was fantastic and our waitress, Fariha, was really quick and efficient! Will definitely be back again.

Food was absolutely divine! We got a bunny chow and chicken platter and everything was perfectly seasoned and cooked. Our waitress was Fariha and was extremely quick, attentive and thoughtful! We were celebrating a birthday and she went out of her way to organise the cake and sparkler while the birthday guest was away from the table. The restaurant was super clean and gorgeous, and music was a great volume for easy speaking. Will definitely return!

So rude people I have seen one delivery rider came to collect the food and the staff misbehaving with one of the rider which was very embarrassing

Delicious food, would pick here over Nando’s any day 😋 Mahima was a great host.

It is a very lovely restaurant! Food was delicious and serving was so nice! We were served by Mahima who was the loveliest! Definitely coming back again!

Thanks Mahima for the great service

This place had a nice ambience. The food tasted average, and it was quite expensive for the portion size.

We are regulars here the food was amazing as usual our favourite is the island fish and chips. Wasn't having a great day however Tobi changed that from the start to the end. He took very ncoe pictures of us then placed us on a lovely table, food came quick and we a loved the dry ice smoke. Amna very kindly gave our kids sweets which made them happy. Thank u for making our day special.

Really nice food. I have a few allergies. Haseeb was very helpful. He got the allergen menu for me so I could check what I could have.

Little cheeky chops deliciously cooked in marinade to perfection with pomegranate. Mash was creamy and smooth and passion star mocktail..just Mwah. Relaxing atmosphere, warm inviting Professional and friendly staff..Rumanah made me feel very welcome. Great chef, food cooked to order. Fresh and definitely worth the wait

Tobi was very friendly and assisted with order promptly. He checked in on our table regularly to ensure we were content.

The food was amazing and excellent service from Haseeb.

We had an absolutely delightful dinner at this restaurant tonight! Despite our group of 30, the staff handled everything seamlessly, seating and serving us with warm smiles and exceptional efficiency. Nothing was too much trouble for them, and their friendly demeanor made the evening even more enjoyable. I started with the prawn appetizer, followed by the salmon main course—both were absolutely outstanding. To round off the meal, I indulged in a refreshing Mojito and the decadent 'Stack it Up' dessert. Everything was so beautifully presented that I wish I had taken photos, but honestly, I couldn’t resist diving in right away. This was a truly memorable dining experience, and I’ll gladly return for another meal in the future!

Went here for a team dinner from work. Service was really great and the food was amazing!🎉

Massive thank you to Rumanah and team for taking care of us. Big party from neighbouring Hastings Direct and the service was nothing short of excellent. Food was top quality too. We hope to visit again soon

I had the pleasure of dining at this incredible restaurant and was blown away not just by the delicious food but also by the outstanding service provided by Fariha and Rumanah. They were both so attentive, friendly, and professional, ensuring every detail of our dining experience was perfect. Their warm smiles and genuine care made us feel so welcome. They anticipated our needs before we even had to ask! A big thank you to Fariha and Rumanah for making our visit truly memorable. We’ll definitely be back because of their wonderful hospitality!

A beautiful experience. Simply amazing. The service was great, we were served by the delightful Fariha, and the food was like nothing we've had before. The restaurant's whole vibe is just so relaxing, truly somewhere to eat out and chill. Absolutely great Afrobeat tunes playing too.

Went here the other day and was served by Haseeb, he was amazing and very welcoming. The We Goat Your Back was 10/10. Defo recommend

I ordered the drink in the photo and the Slide in the DMs burger and both were delicious! Would recommend, the food was delicious and the service and atmosphere was good 😊

Lovely service from Rumanah - made the experience 10/10

Loved the service from Rumanah and great food!

Delicious food and always lovely being served by Rumanah!

Lovely ambience. Nice meal. Worth a revisit.

Second time visiting, and it keeps getting better. Service and food were 10/10. Family friendly. They made my birthday girl feel very special. Thankyou so much to Rumanah!

Food was really good with amazing customer service

I was excited about celebrating my partner’s birthday at Afrikana on 14 Dec. The lady Rumanah contacted me for a £100 deposit for a reservation. Initially, she said I could pay thru the link. I had been asking for a link for 10 days, and she kept replying “I will do it shortly,” and not giving me anything. I have no clue what’s wrong with her today. I live in Birmingham, an hour away from Leics, and she told me to “GO TO THE RESTAURANT” and “PAY IN CASH.” How ridiculous and disappointing is it? -10 stars for Rumanah 👎🏻

Mahima was very welcoming , prompt service and helped with double bagging of the take away too.

Amazing food! We had the "nice to meat you" platter and it was phenomenal! Full of flavour and freshly cooked! Tobi and Mateenah took great care of us. Thank you, will return for sure!

ismael had great customer service. perfect fast service and fast delivery. no issues at all with the afrikana service provided

Talia was fantastic, gave a 100% customer service

The food came quick and the service was very good, our server Talia was very nice and made our dinner so much better. I would come back again, 10/10 experience.

Mahima was really quick and attentive. 👍

Food and service was really good. Music was a bit too loud

The vibes and the food and the service by RUMANAH were unmatched! Incredible experience; I am definitely going to be back!

Had a great experience with good service from the staff. Thanks to Rumanah for taking care of my friends and I.

Today we went for dinner and had great customer service by Talia :)

We were met by a friend smile and reception from Rumanah, and the food, drink and atmosphere were very lovely. Would recommend strongly.
