I later realized it seems like more of a takeout restaurant. I ordered the peanut butter soup with goat and a side of fufu. I was expecting the peanut butter soup to have more of a peanut butter taste, but it did not - it tasted more like a stew, but still delicious! It was my first time trying goat so I wasn't sure what to expect. I really enjoyed it, the meat was super tender and flavorful. The fufu complemented the meal nicely as well. The person taking our order, as well as the chef were super nice. The chef came out and made sure we were enjoying everything. Overall a very good experience. Prices were reasonable. I would definitely recommend for takeout versus dine-in.

You could say I drove up from South Western Virginia, just for this restaurant. I was not…read moredisappointed. We arrived a little less than an hour before closing time but we were still happily served. Let me be clear, this is a Ugandan restaurant. Okay, moving on. Our food came out, steaming hot and fresh- nothing seemed like it was reheated (try eating reheated posho y'all). We stayed long after the restaurant was closed to finish our food which really gave me the real homey Ugandan vibes. There were also a bunch of Ugandan uncles in the corner just chatting it up the entire time which was fun. Also, there's a store with Ugandan products, raw frozen cassava/matooke, bitenge, and some other Ugandan staples like Royco, Blueband, Majaani, etc!

You seat yourselves, order, pay at the front, and you carry your food yourself to your table. The food comes out pretty quickly and they gave me a good portion.

My wife and I have been meaning to stop by this restaurant…read more We swung by for a late lunch and were thrilled with our food. One ordered from the "Specials" list. 1 Curry Goat, and one item from the Entree list, Waakye (wha'-Che). The goat was tender, flavorful with atypical spice combination relative to the typical homogeneous food outlet offerings in the quiet corner of CT and Webster, MA area. The Waakye is a combination plate of Ghanaian beef stew, a great rice, spaghetti(!) a hard boiled egg (whole), and a small portion of firmly fried, bone-in piece of fish! We both appreciated the big flavor profile of both dishes. This does not mean they were peppery "hot". (If you can enjoy medium store-bought salsa, you will love these dishes.) We are looking forward to trying the many other dishes in the near future. We can't speak to the eclectic inclusion of the Mexican side of their menu...not yet any way. The two women working were helpful and generous with their time. The tables and chairs are simple, pedestrian and sufficient. You are there to enjoy and experience the food and the understated welcome of the busy women doing everything fresh.

Wow! I've been wanting to try African cuisine for soooo long and finally made my way here for lunch…read moreyesterday and I am blown away! We ordered the joint sampler with beef samosas, and dry rubbed wings, however they ran out of beef samosas which was disappointing cause it was only 30 minutes after opening. but i will say i was pleasantly surprised at how good the vegetable ones were! it didn't even make me miss the beef! we got the dry rubbed wings at a spicy level which was just the right amount of spice for us. you can never go wrong with plantains, they will forever be one of my favorites. for our entrees, my husband got the jollof rice with mixed meat and i got the egusi with orishirishi and fufu. my goodness!! what flavors! i loved the entire experience of eating with my hands and being asian, we are used to getting our hands dirty for a meal! the waitress was very nice and friendly and gave great recommendations of what to get! we will definitely return!!

Beautifully decorated and unique, Suya Joint is a must visit destination in downtown Providence…read more I've had the pleasure of dining here a few times now and each time I'm even more impressed than the last. We wanted a good dinner tonight so we stopped by Suya Joint around 5:30 and had no trouble finding a table. I'd also like to give a shoutout to our waitress who was incredibly friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and accommodating. She's one of the main reasons why we keep coming back. She even came over when our food was put down to make sure we knew exactly what we were eating and had to do it. I've worked with people of Ghanian and Nigerian descent so I do know what good African food tastes like, and this place is one of the best. Tonight I ordered the taushe with fufu and was very happy with it! The fufu tastes great, a little sticky but I enjoy the texture and think it works great for dipping. The taushe had great flavor, was very filling, and was seasoned expertly. My only minor critique is that some of the pieces of my beef were large which made it a challenge to eat inside the stew. But it's a dish that I definitely recommend to anyone. My mango juice was also very tasty and I enjoyed the whole experience once again. Prices are on the higher side but I never mind paying for quality food.
