The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving African food

Asistí con amigos en la iglesia, su servicio fue excelente y la comida fue cocinada a la perfección. Era una relación calidad-precio y la comida servida era más de lo que pagamos, y todos terminamos yendo a casa con una comida para llevar. No hubiéramos pedido más, el personal era educado y se enorgulleció de la calificación de la comida y los servicios prestados. Por favor, mantenga su estándar. Sin duda volveré a visitar la Suya Presidencial de nuevo. 👍❤️

The kitchen does not have the food on the menu. I came there weeks ago and was served with stale grilled fish and fried yam covered with sauce. Suffered from stomach upset afterwards. Disappointed 🙁

I purchased a Leon 2 good 2 go dinner bag and paid £4.99 on the app. I was greeted by a member of the Leon staff who was friendly and easy to chat to. I explained I was collecting a 2 good 2 go bag. The member of staff told me what was available, and I had the choice of what I wanted. There were only 2 options. Thai green chicken curry rice box and chargrilled chicken rice box with alioli. I was given the option of having 1 of each box or taking 2 of the same. I decided to take 1 of each. The process of collecting the food was very easy and the staff member was very chatty. When I received the food, both boxes were hot. Once I got home, which is a 10minute drive away, the food wasn’t as hot but was at a warm temperature and could still be eaten. I tried a small amount from both boxes, and I have no complaints at all. Both boxes had plenty of food inside. Which could be shared between 2 people. The flavours of both dishes were amazing. I will definitely go back again to Leon, for the delicious food and the friendly staff

De Honourables in Gillingham is a great restaurant with great service. It is helpful to 'know' the food that one is ordering, as they serve mainly West African traditional food. But the quality of their dishes is really up to par with traditional West African quality!

Been here a few times now, on a friend’s recommendation, and have always enjoyed my meal. Staff have always been friendly and professional. Looking forward to going back.

made the mistake of following the guardian's review of this african restaurant. i always follow their culinary reviews of london's restaurants. nowhere else, to me london is the whole country (been here 20 years). i am sad to announce that the meal was a disaster! to hope that in the middle of knighsbridge a restaurant this poor could survive longer than months is a pious dream. and it has, i believe they opened in 2022. i firstly booked via opentable. only availability was at 2pm. i later called and moved it to 1pm. go figure. when we got there, us two, place was deserted. nobody, no tables taken. a nigerian waitress welcomed us in tentative english and took our coats. a harbinger of the quality of the restaurant was that she hunged the two coats behind the till's chair! i mean, if this is their cloak room then we could have simply kept them behind our own chairs. we were shown to a table and noticed straight away there were no africans in sight, all staff but one were asians. another bad sign. a nigerian restaurant served by asians?? again, we noticed that most table were prepared with the cutlery wrongly set, very often seen in african settings where staff simply has no clue on how to set it. they have no idea forks go on the left and knivs on the right! none. we then ordered: fried yam ayamase ofada stew butterfly grill seabass acqua panna btl nigerian fanta a plate with two "puff puff" came as appetisers. admittedly very good. ayamase, we asked with white rice. yes of course, they said. it came with brown rice. seabass was ok, but please remember seabass does not exist in nigerian cuisine! drinks were hard to get it wrong, nigerian fanta is not proper fanta. a totally different drink and taste but it's ok, wife tells me west africans love different sodas. all in all a disaster. we spent £70. let me finish by saying that in this postcode, where patrons are used to an extremely high level of service and quality a place like this hopefully will NOT survive and it makes you wonder how could they, no patrons on a tuesday's lunch?? no, something is very wrong here.

Excellent environment, friendly service great menu choices and really decent food and at affordable price will be coming back what lovely restaurant good food and music

No vaya aquí su personal es grosero e irrespetuoso y carece de cualquier sentido de servicio al cliente. Espero que el dueño del negocio eche un vistazo a cómo su personal dirige el negocio

Been to Nile Bar a couple of times, nice Nyama Choma and grilled Tilapia. Good Karaoke nights on Wednesday. Occasionally rowdy patrons but can be dealt with by management. At times one can be thrown out at 2am.

Nunca he tenido que tirar una comida para llevar. . . literalmente lejos. Arroz frío e insípido que inicialmente se había congelado y semicongelado en el microondas, una porción de alitas de pollo que tenían menos carne que las alitas. 20 abajo y sin cena. El propietario 'Fred', que trabaja de apoyo a la salud mental en el NHS en su tiempo libre, aplica tanto cuidado a este trabajo como su arroz al microondas e insípido. Fred debería considerar su 'deber de cuidado' en ambos roles de trabajo. La comida fue / es preparada sin cuidado ni amor. Tal vez conseguir un nuevo chef o simplemente renunciar a él como un mal trabajo. Un saludo, muy decepcionado.

HOY fui allí a tomar el té y estaba pensando en cenar. para mi sorpresa del jefe yo era bastante desagradable. El jefe Mahm... actuó de manera inapropiada. Estaba tomando un té en el comedor. Entró en el comedor. No me saludó en absoluto. Pero me miró y me dijo. ¿Por qué vienes aquí? Eran clientes en la habitación. Me sentí tan avergonzado y apresurado a beber mi té e irme. Sentí una sensación de discriminación y humillación.

menu was read wrong, sausages wasnt stated if beef or pork, person is pollotarian and sausages were beef so couldnt be ate, i contacted the shop to explain and they were extremely rude

Visited Manchester 19th February and decided to get a take away from yakoyo restaurant on Kenyon Lane in Manchester as we enjoyed their food the last time we visited but this time around the food we ordered was not very tasty at all, the jollof rice taste like too much tomato, very oily at the bottom and hard rice, and the oha soup hmmmmmm can barely see any oha leaf, I wonder if it was actually oha leaf, and after eating I felt nauseous, never will I patronise you again. And the restaurant smells of food, sitting there to eat in is not a good idea as you will be smelling of fish/food afterwards. They need to do something about the food smell, I know is restaurant but please do something about it

It was so good very clean and tidy,the staff were friendly but especially this one man who did everything but all the food was great and really tasty!

Very nice Food service and Atmosphere I recommend this restaurant was really friendly and welcoming. …
