If you are interested in authentic African food in a beautiful and unique environment, Im Herzen…read moreAfrikas is the place for you! Before I even get to the food, I have to talk about the atmosphere as it is truly special and makes you feel the African vibes. Everything seems to be interestingly shaped and carefully curated to fit the theme. There is even a little treehouse sort of elevated seating area and a part of the restaurant with sand on the floor. You just have to take a look for yourself. As for the food, it is really authentic style where you eat everything with only your hands. The menu is sort of limited, where you pick a handful of items to be served on a single large plate and shared. We got 3 kinds of beef, chicken, lentils, and white cabbage. They all had a good flavor, and some were quite spicy. It was served with lots of bread on the side, which was flat, soft, yet somewhat fluffy. The way to eat this is by grabbing the food with the bread (kind of like making a little wrap). It's 18 EUR per person, which is a decent deal. I also got the non-alcoholic "momo is back" cocktail (9 EUR), which was a mix of lime juice, grenadine, peach juice, and guava juice. It was tasty and served in a nice cup with garnish on top. The staff are friendly and helpful. We were able to get a table for two with no wait on a weekday night, but I know it can be quite busy at peak times. Overall, I had a great and unique experience at Im Herzen Afrikas and highly recommend it to anyone interested in trying some African food in Frankfurt!

The decor was cozy and I appreciated the sand on the floor, that definitely added to the ambience. We ordered the Hummus, the mixed platter, and the African Banana Cream. Everything was made with love and high quality ingredients. My favorite bite of the night was Dorho. Injera bread instead of utensils...genius! A scooper you can eat!

It did take a while for the food to come out but, I was too distracted by a game of "Awale"( African board game) to notice. The food was worth the wait as it was cooked to perfection. I definitely enjoyed my experience at this restaurant.

It truly pains me to do this, but I have to downgrade Nollywood a star. I still think they rock,…read morebut the food last time I was there was a mess. I considered giving it another go before writing this, but I have concluded I will no longer eat off of their every day menu and will simply go there for the Saturday buffet (which I still think is better than Kenkey House in Sachsenhausen). The last time I was here I ordered a groundnut stew. It came out with the wrong protein, and the flavors were just off. It tasted like peanut butter. I like the subtle hints of peanuts throughout in this stew, but for the entire thing to just taste like peanut butter is a bit much. My boyfriend's food wasn't too appetizing either. The portions here are so large that it is really difficult to know where to start eating and it leaves me stressed because I can't finish it and the pounded yams don't hold well for leftovers. I don't know really what else to say except I am going to stop going here for meals unless it is buffet day for a while. I hope they can get their game back on track because I really like this place and its owner.
