Amazing authentic African food. The owner is great and always willing to talk about African culture and cuisine. A bit pricey but all of the food is made in house fresh and beverages are imported. Try the Malta Guinness drink from Ghana!

Yum! My husband and I were visiting from Florida when we visited this place for the first time. The service was excellent. We were immediately greeted with a smile and waited on by the owner. He was helpful in explaining the dishes and making recommendations. The food took a bit of time to come out. But it wasnt terribly long and it's to be expected when food is being prepared fresh! The food was delicious. My husband paired his meal with a fresh ginger beer and I washed my meal down with an ice cold Ghanan beer. We also saw the co owner, the wife, who cooks the food and we were able to thank her for the delicious meal. Great family owned restaurant with authentic west African cuisine.

Fantastic place we stumbled upon. It’s a casual place in a brand new strip mall. They have some bar seating, large dining area, and a small dance floor section where a band could play.
Bar has beer and wine including some W or E African lagers that I’ve never seen before.
Varied menu with poultry, beef, and fish options. Of course there are veggie options too. Had a sample platter that included rice, plantain, okra, beef, and chicken. Also had a meat pie. Dishes are salty but oh so good.
Give em a try. You won’t be disappointed.

This is an amazing restaurant. The owner of the establishment, Osea (sorry if I misspelled) greeted us with a smile, making some recommendations and bringing plenty of food. He was very friendly, and told me to try the beef samosas, and he did not disappoint. They were heavenly. This restaurant is perfect for people who like African cuisine with a fun, family friendly vibe, and music live from Ghana.

This is by far one of the BEST African restaurant I have ever ate at... I’m here on vacation and was craving some good authentic food. I found them online and because of the reviews I stepped out on faith and gave it a try seeing how good people spoke of the food. NO LIE I’m sitting here so full and happy to have come here. It is a little pricey but it’s worth it. I ordered the “spicy curry oxtail w/ wakye rice, fried plantains.” (If you can’t take the heat DONT GET its spice level was 🌶🌶🌶) but it’s very delicious. And I’m ordering to go cassava leaf chicken and white rice w/side of plantains. !!!!! I’m from Dallas Texas and this is not a false review if you happen to be from Dallas and read this it’s better than Elaine’s kitchen lol ( Elaine’s kitchen is a highly recommended Jamaican restaurant) anyone from Dallas would know what I mean. Hope you enjoy 😊 😁🤟🏾✊🏾
-ps they don’t serve ice with water ( way I like anyway) and they don’t bug you and come to the table every 10 secs while you’re eating.

The food is amazing. They offer a variety of dishes from all over Africa. I try something different every time and have never been disappointed. Definitely recommend this restaurant.

Food here was very good although service is slightly slow. My brother and i didnt really know what to order and were going back and forth on getting the cabbage stew and one more dish. The boss lady came out of the kitchen and settled the situation for us. She asked, what meat you want, beef, chicken or lamb? We said lamb. You like spinach? Yes we do. Alright. So she cooked up something really delicious for us. Portions were huge. Slightly on the more salty side. You have to eat it with a lot of rice. The sambosa was very delicious and I would highly recommend those.

Very good food, service, and ambience. I highly recommend the okra plate. The plantains were nicely cooked. Not fried hard like most places.

First time truck driver passing through. I ordered the cabbage stew with oxtail meat and white rice. I was bummed i didn't get plantains but that's ok. The food was really good. From a jamaican family i loveeeee jamaican food but this was really good. Cabbage stew was nicely flavored. Oxtails weren't bad. Cooked differently than I'm used too but good. I really enjoyed my meal.
My complaint would be i hardly got any oxtails. Needed more cabbage stew. A lot of rice as expected but little meat. I forgot to order my beef patties and plantains so i will be back. Happy customer! 😊

Got the sampler platter for two and it was super yummy and very satisfying. My husband especially loved it because he got to finish what I couldn't. The rice, the plantains, samosas, African bread, yam, and goat stew were ALL scrumptious. Oh and the ginger juice was unexpectedly pleasant too!
Rob Ratliff
Incredible food! Great flavors and the selection of African Lagers is delicious. The family that owns and operates the restaurant is warm and personable. Treat yourself to this unique dining experience

Wow is all I can say. Nice family owned restaurant serving traditional African home cooking . It was absolutely amazing. Very flavorful and just full of love. I will be back!!

Best Ghanaian food outside of Ghana! Worth it for a visit if you are near the airport! Very authentic. Plantains are a must, and I recommend the peanut butter soup.

I had the dinner for two with a friend. Awesome food. Everything tasted excellent. The jollof rice and lamb samosas stood out to me. The chicken and cabbage was also good. Yum! On the way to the airport so an option would be to drop by before your flight.
Jeaux Thibodeaux
Great, unique food, a little pricy.
The owners are awesome. You can tell they love seeing people enjoy their food.
Also their plantains are amazing!
I never leave reviews, but this place is worth it.

Ordered the Chakalaka. This was my first time having African fare and it was very tasty. Portion sizes were great, and the owners were courteous and affable. While the portion is a "whole plate of food," the food very pricey.

Our group of seven represented WI, OR, NY, FL, Brazil, and South Africa, and all of us LOVED this place. We opted for our hosts to "feed us", rather than order from the menu, and selected a few protein options. While we enjoyed a round of the "big" lagars, plates upon plates started piling up on our table. Everything was fantastic, but I think our favorites were the octopus, lamb, plantains and the chakalaka!
Timid eaters might want to stick to the safety of a familiar menu option... for the rest of us, the African Grill and Bar is highly recommended!
Bob Tullgren
Exceeded my high expectation! Walked in and asked the owner to bring me a dish that represented his place and that I like spice. He brought a thick jerk lamb stew with sides-- and an oversized order of sweet drop dough donuts. A cold themed beer and my evening was complete.
Konni Hansen
The food was amazing and the service even better!!! The owner was very friendly and helped us choose our entrees and we both loved the dishes we had (coconut stew and bean stew, both with chicken). Highly recommend trying this restaurant ����

Excellent food. Was on a extended layover, was looking for something good that was near my hotel, that wasn't the normal unhealthy fast food chains, and found this jewel. Excellent African food, with great service. I highly recommend this place if you live in Denver, or visiting.
Tim Funk
Fabulous service and food. The owner / chef was extremely helpful in satisfying our needs when it came to spices and taste. I would highly recommend experiencing this place at least once. We will be back, for sure. Bonus - she answered questions for my girlfriends school project. Extremely kind and warm hearted.
Sarah Graham
This was my first time eating African cuisine and I wasn't sure what to get. Ordered the beef samosa king and it was one of the best meals I have ever had. This place is fantastic and I recommend it to anyone who lives nearby.
Mina Musa
Defiantly worth it. The price is a bit steep but when the quality and taste of food mesmerizes your taste buds you can careless about the price. Recommend it�� really love it, my new favorite African food place ���
Hashmel Osman
Exceeded my high expectation! Walked in and asked the owner i wanted fried tilapia, banku and hot sauce,and also wanted pepper soup on the side plus a cold star beer and my day was complete.

We went to dinner at The African Grill and Bar. We chose to go on an evening when there was live music. The atmosphere and staff were kind and welcoming. The food and music were amazing, we will of course be going back again.

This was my first time at this amazing little place. The service was top notch and very friendly. The food was amazing!
Kimba Allen Langas
Delicious food!! Big portion sizes. The owners are so lovely and fun! They made us feel like family. �
Brian Davis
All I can say is wow!!! I felt like we stepped into a home. We were warmly greeted, and treated like family. The food was amazing, the experience spectacular. This will be a place we will visit regularly from now on. They don't make them like this anymore!!!!
Chris Skalicky
We went here not knowing what to expect but some friends raved about it so we decided to give it a try. The restaurant is a little quaint and it was almost empty on a Saturday night. I was skeptical until we got our first round of service. The owners came out and took our drink order, knowing my friends by name! I couldn't read the menu at all, and the pictures didn't help. So they asked a few questions about what we like- meat preference, spicy or not, rice or veggies. The food came out quickly and was SO GOOD! I don't even know what it's called but everything was prepared perfectly, tasty but not over the top. The spicy dishes were indeed very spicy so be careful... but they were still flavorful. You will not be disappointed with the staff/owners or the food. don't let the humble exterior fool you, it's a real hidden gem in GVR!
Tara Schurz Shields
Seriously fantastic food - every bite was wonderful! And the owners are so friendly and warm and remember us each time. Love this place!

I have visited 2x in the last week. It is very tasty. Got the coconut stew...yummm! It had a little kick but it was tasty. 2nd visit I got the spinach dish with goat...yummm again! Try it soon!
Karen Olkowski
Sooooooo good! This will be my new go-to dinner spot when my travels take me to Denver. Loved the okra stew with goat and just-right spice. Yummo! 👍🏻👍🏻
