It used to be located on 71st but moved to this location about 7 months ago. There's plenty of parking next to it and the like green truck is easy to spot. There's a couple of picnic tables as well if you choose to eat there. The food is specifically from Liberia on the west African coast. I had never tried Liberian food so I was super excited and asked for recommendations. They even offered to allow me to taste their soups to make a decision. It was super nice and extremely helpful. We ended up ordering the bell pepper meat stew with rice, jollof rice with fried chicken, and the banga (palm butter) soup with fufu. Despite it being quite a bit of food, it all came out in like 10 minutes. The stew was super flavorful and the meat was nice and tender. The white rice along with us was pretty plain but it made a good combo with the stew. The jollof rice was rich and had a slightly smoky taste. I usually like for it to have a stronger tomato taste, but it was still good. The fried chicken with it was my favorite, it was cooked to perfection. The highlight was trying fufu for the very first time. I had only seen pictures of it and I was so indicted. The owner educated me on its use as a pairing to their soups. It's hard to describe but it's texture is doughy and it's made of cassava, yams or plantains. It reminded me a bit of mashed potatoes but thicker. You're supposed to pinch a little bit off, shape it into a ball and dip it in the soup. It has a very mild and subtle taste, which went perfectly with the palm butter soup which was extra rich and meaty. I had to skim off some of the excess oil from the soup, but besides that, it was great. An experience for sure! Will be back to try other dishes.

Some of the beef was a tad dry but all in all it was a really good meal. Ambiance was ok as it was in a food hall and the service was ok as well, the food just took a tad long.

The picture of their "Fufu and Egusi" as shown in the photo is not as displayed. It is completely misleading because the meat on the dish is an "add on" and it is a vegan dish and they did not disclose that in the menu nor in person. In addition, we found a SHARP LONg WOODEN STICK in our food. Extremely disappointed with the lack of hygiene and service with this shop. See picture

Anyhoo, this new grocery store has many international shelf items, fresh produce, and frozen meats and other delights. Fresh bread, no preservatives! Rare to find in the USA. But the star is the Afro Cook restaurant in the back of the store. Two women dishing up traditional West African food with a smile. Yes, this is rare. Africans don't typically do customer service. So don't expect such service at other places. It's a nice store. They are still getting their bearings, but they're already off to a good start. They're just waiting on the rest of y'all.

After reviewing the menu I decided to order on the kiosk a build my own regular plate with four chicken wings, Waakye Rice (Rice & Black-Eyed Peas), and Efo-Riro (Spinach). I waited a little bit for my food and almost thought I had missed the text, but the chef signaled me over and I picked up my order. The first surprise was the large mount of Waayke rice compared the very small cup of spinach. I noticed that the black eyed peas in the rice looked burnt and unfortunately tasted that way too. The rice was a little over cooked and sticky as well--not what I was expecting. It was difficult to take more than a few bites, so I tried the spinach, which was cold and did not have a of spice or flavor. I moved on to the chicken wings, which were just basic chicken wings--nothing special. I've had the blessing of having home made and restaurant made West African food and unfortunately Afrikan Delights missed the mark. Their food lacked a lot of flavor or warmth. I gave them three stars because of the attentive customer service and for replacing the rice. The chef was kind enough to check on me and listen to my feedback. I was still pretty hungry after not finishing a lot of my meal, so I was kicking myself for that! I hope that the flavor improves in the future as I love supporting local and black-brown owned businesses!

So, I have been wanting to try African cuisine for a while now. My friend and I were close by this…read morelocation, and I wanted to give it a shot. Little did I know I was about to try some of the best food I've ever had. Mind you, this was my first time trying Fufu too! Anyway, I ordered the oxtail, and it was absolutely phenomenal. The thick, tenderness, and juiciness of the meat combined with delicious flavors made it almost impossible to stop eating. The Fufu, typically made of plantains or yams, soaked up all the delicious flavors, and it was also fun eating with my hands. The fried plantains and rice were a perfect combination with that oxtail. It's a little on the pricier side, but the experience and memory are all worth it. They also have great customer service, and the lady who worked there helped me pick out certain items since it was my first time. Im telling you, if you are afraid or have never tried this type of cuisine, dont skip it next time. I think you will be just as surprised as I was...I'll be back and thank you, Afrikan Delights for such a great meal.
