    Palm butter with chicken and fufu
    Kourtney W.

    Wanted to try their egusi and fufu today. Dropped by and ordered on a kiosk. The restaurant is a good size with plenty of seating. Service was good. She was very nice and greeted us. After I ordered we sat at the bar stools to wait for the order. It did take a good 20-30 minutes wait. So keep in mind there will be a wait on Togo and dine in. I ended up ordering the palm butter and rice plate but replaced rice for fufu. Brought it home and tried it... it was great! The palm butter had thick chunks of chicken in it and was so flavorful! Eaten with fufu was delicious! I will be back to try their oxtail soup and their egusi one of these days!

    I have been wanting to try AfroEatz since they first opened last year. I finally got the pleasure of going and it did not disappoint. From the artwork you see walking up to the restaurant to the elevated interior, the pride and intention behind the space is clear. I ordered the Chicken Jollof Plate and I highly recommend trying it with a Malta. It is a very unique tasting drink that elevates this cultural experience! Everything had so much flavor down to the cabbage. I loved that they added the purple cabbage because I've never eaten it cooked before. The amount of food that is given is totally worth the price. The overall process of ordering was very easy and the service was reasonable. It's also a Black, immigrant, and woman-owned business, which makes supporting them even more meaningful.

    I'm so glad we have an option like AfroEatz in Sacramento. The outside of the building is hard to miss with its beautiful and colorful mural. Inside is equally warm and welcoming with art all over the walls and rainbow light shining through the windows. You can choose dine in or take out options, and if you decide to dine in you my be seated with other people depending on your party size as they encourage community here. The team here is really friendly, and the whole restaurant smells delicious as soon as you walk in. They have a variety of items and they're all better shared, while they seem expensive the portions are very generous and the food is filling. If you're looking for something quick the meat pies are amazing and easy to enjoy on the go. The other options are better to sit and enjoy including jollof rice, soup and stew options, fish and chicken. There's plenty of street parking nearby so you'll be able to grab a spot and spend some time enjoying AfroEatz. It's definitely a good spot to visit with friends or small groups.

    I've been seeing this restaurant a lot on social media, and finally had the chance to try it. Upon entering, you are immediately greeted by the employees. They were so nice! You can choose to sit anywhere and order through the QR code on the table. We got the egusi with goat and fufu, and the pepper soup. Both were flavor bombs and absolutely delicious. I've tried fufu a few years ago and was not a fan because there was an after taste. However, this time there was no after taste! It was delicious and had a similar consistency of mochi. They give you a bowl of water so you can dip your hands to eat the fufu without it being too sticky. The egusi was delicious and had plenty of meat. The only thing was that it was a bit too salty for me, so I will ask for less seasoning next time. As for the pepper soup, I thought it was flavored perfectly. Be aware, it is spicy and you will sweat!

    TLDR: Flavorful dishes, great service, and a smooth ordering system. The hibiscus drink and jollof rice are standouts. -------- I came here midday on a Sunday and was seated immediately. The interior is open and spacious with plenty of tables. You can choose any available table and scan a QR code to place your order, which makes the process simple and efficient. I ordered the following: 1. Bissap (Hibiscus) Drink: This was amazing. I loved the bold hibiscus flavor and the added spice that gave it an extra kick. I would definitely recommend starting your meal with this. 2. Egusi (with Turkey) + Fufu: The egusi had rich, satisfying flavor, and the turkey paired especially well with it. The fufu was perfect for balancing out the heaviness of the soup. They provide a water bowl so you can rinse your hands, since the fufu can get sticky, which was a thoughtful touch. 3. Jollof + Chicken Wings: Overall, this dish was very good. The jollof rice and vegetables were excellent and full of flavor. The chicken wings were my least favorite part, as they tasted slightly too salty for my preference. That said, the staff kindly brought out an extra wing since the dish normally comes with three and our group had four people, which I really appreciated. Overall, both the food and service were great. I would highly recommend this spot and would definitely come back.

    It smelled so good when walking in! I was excited to try their food. We placed an online order at 6:30, and we waited approximately until 7:30 to receive our food. So just be cautious of your time if you're in a rush. They did also have a sign in their store saying to be aware of their wait times. However, their food for sure made up for the long wait! It was super flavorful and cooked so well. To make it even better, that portion was huge for the jollof rice plates. No wonder why it was $30+ for each meal. Decor was super beautiful inside and it was very clean.

    So. Good. My first time trying Liberian food and it did not disappoint! I've been wanting to try fufu and egusi for the LONGEST time. Everyone on TikTok around the world raves about it, and I needed a place in Sacramento that sold it. This was the spot. The flavors were amazing, the HAND PIES? MY FAVORITEEEEE. We met with the owner, Pinky, and it was so great getting the chance to speak with her and learn about the restaurant, the mural, and her intentions for the restaurant. I will say... the fufu and egusi are very hyped up on the internet, but the star dish of this whole thing?? The jollof rice plate with chicken. This was so good and could probably feed 2-3 people. The inside (and outside obviously) has beautiful artwork everywhere displaying the culture so well. Even the music goes with the entire vibe of the spot. This is a spot with communal seating so if it's a full house and you're sitting at a table of 6 with only 2 people, you might meet some new people at your table! :)

    Salty AF today!!!!!!!
    Paula C.

    We always order the Egusi from Afroeats and it's usually so good, which is why this was really disappointing today. The food was extremely salty -- so salty that I couldn't even eat it and had to throw it away. Please address this. We really love the food here and order often, but this dish was overly salty and honestly shouldn't have been sent out like that. Ordered through DoorDash. Hoping this was just an off day, because we normally enjoy your food and would like to continue supporting you.

    Lili M.

    Came here for the first time with my friends for dinner after seeing so many videos of it online and hearing great reviews from said friends. This place did not disappoint! The inside is so cute with various seating styles (tables, high tops, bar) and communal seating. You will scan a QR code to access the menu and order and then it will be brought out to you. We came on a Sunday and spun a wheel and won a free side of fufu! The staff were super friendly and helpful in answering questions, one of us paid cash and the worker helped take the order/have us pay since we weren't using the QR code to order. We ordered different dishes: beef/meat pies, egusi soup + fufu, pepper soup + fufu, jollof rice + wings, and jollof rice + whole fish. They brought us some Kala with a delicious spicy sauce as well. Every single item was incredible, super flavorful, and so unique compared to other food I've had. The pepper soup is perfectly spicy and goes great with the mild smooth fufu. The jollof rice is so good, the fish was perfectly cooked, and the plantains on the side were caramelized and amazing. So filling and we all left with leftovers. Only been once, but will absolutely be back!

    Sauces for the whole fish

    This was our first authentic Liberian experience and the hospitality that these guys provided was nothing like we've ever experienced. Take into account that all dishes are made fresh and may take a little patience so definitely not the place for a quick bite. You will be placing your order online using the QR code. We were not familiar with the dishes and cuisine but at AfroEatz they are so eager and happy to share their culture that they brought out an appetizer while we looked over the menu; they brought out and order of Kala which came with a red sauce that was so tasty, and beef meat pies. At the entrance of the restaurant they have a spin the wheel with chances of got some free sides. We won a free side of Jollof Rice, delicious! We ordered a few entrees, their portions are plentiful and can easily be split by two people. I ordered the whole fish and a side of fufu which I was so excited to try. As I was attempting to eat the fufu one of the chefs came out and told me she would bring me something to eat the fufu with. She brought out some Egusi Soup and this ended up being my favorite dish out of the whole experience! We also very much enjoyed the very lively music and over all vibe in the restaurant was vibrant!

    I've been wanting to try this spot for a minute, and finally popped in to grab some food after work. We were greeted by a friendly woman at the counter, delicious aromas from the kitchen, and good music playing. We placed our to go order and chilled at the counter while we waited. The woman brought us waters without asking and then started chatting a bit. She was super lovely and kind. Food took about 10 minutes and the smell was killing us on the drive home. Soooo much good smell! We order the jollof rice with wings. It also came with cabbage and sweet plantains. It was so beautiful when we opened the container that I literally gasped. The taste is impeccable. The chicken is juicy and so well seasoned and the rice is pure deliciousness. Plantains and cabbage are perfect too. We'll be back and dine in for pepper soup and peanut butter soup, soon. Oh and if you like spicy, do NOT skip the side of hot sauce. It's so good. Loved it 10/10

It's in a part of town I don't frequent, but the inside was very nice. I really liked the decor, seating, and ambiance. We were seated and given water and menus right away. The service was hands-off throughout the meal, which I personally didn't mind. I ordered the meat platter so I could try several dishes, including Alicha Minchet Abish Wot, Kay Wot, Ye-Doro Wot, Alicha Wot, and injera. In hindsight I don't think I received the cabbage stew listed with the platter, which was a little disappointing, but I can't say for sure since I'm still learning the different dishes. My favorite was the Ye-Doro Wot, a rich and spicy chicken stew with a drumstick, but everything tasted fresh and had great flavor and depth. I was hoping for the traditional round platter presentation I saw on other reviews, but everything was served close together and blended into one another. The presentation could've been better, but the food was amazing. The platter says it serves one, but I got two full meals out of it, so it could easily be shared. The leftovers were even richer and more flavorful the next day. I also ordered the tej after first discovering it in London and was very happy to see it here. It was sweet and refreshing while still having that distinct yeasty, fermented flavor. Overall, it was a fantastic meal and a great value for the amount of food. The menu is extensive, and although I didn't always know exactly what I was eating, it was all delicious. I'd definitely come back.

I discovered they had moved to a permanent location in Roseville, so I was anxious to try them (again). It's definitely the same restaurant, as Samerwit (perhaps the owner) was our waitress. I ordered the Mini Combo, substituting Lamb, along with cabbage & greens for my veggies. The Lamb Tibs was well cooked (moist) and plentiful, and the sauce was tasty. The two veggie dishes were very good and flavorful. My husband ordered the Vegan combo. He enjoyed all 5 dishes, and felt that unlike some Ethiopian vegs he's had in the past, each dish had its own unique flavor. His least favorite typically is the collard greens, but this time he added a bit of Berbera spice from the shaker on the table, and he loved that one, too. The only slight disappointment for him was the beets and potato dish, which last time was his favorite, but this time seemed a bit on the dry side. But still very delicious. Service was exceptionally pleasant and kind. The food took a while to arrive (about 25-30 minutes). But it's been my experience that Ethiopian food is often a bit slower, so we were prepared to wait. I uploaded photos of a handful of menu pages, since the prices on their website are old. Unfortunately, even their menu is a bit outdated in places, since it had my Mini Combo at $16.50, but the current price turned out to be $17.50. A great experience!
