Not bad! The food was pretty good. We don't have many options in NOVA so for what is, it was good…read more I normally drive out to MD and DC for West African food. This restaurant is Ghanaian. We came here on a Thursday night so maybe that's why everything didn't slap as much as I would've liked. The jollof didn't have a ton of flavor or spice, but they have tomato based pepper sauce a medium and an extra hot that adds flavor and spice to the rice. The meat and chicken was a bit dry and hard. The fish wasn't seasoned much. The portions are big and customer service was kind. They had a fairly big menu. We ordered: Suya rice 8/10 (best thing here to me) Attike w/fish 6/10 Jollof rice with chicken and beef 6/10

Overall the food is good. My wife and I really wanted west African food last week and we were in…read moreManassas so we stopped by here. The food is Ghanaian so you'll find a lot of west African staples here. I ordered their Suya rice with chicken and beef. My wife ordered the acheke with fried fish and ordered a plate of jollof to take home. The suya fried rice was my favorite dish. It's one of their own creations but it's a fried rice with suya spice in it. It's not as spicy as I personally like, but I'm a huge fan of spice so I imagine it's a good level for most people. The jollof was also pretty good. I'll say that the chicken and beef in both the jollof and suya fried rice were a little dry, but they had good flavor to them so it can be overlooked. The acheke was standard for what I expect from it. The fried fish could have used a little bit of seasoning but was fine to go with it. Food took about 20 mins to be cooked but I appreciate that it's done fresh. The service was great! Kevin was the one who took our order and helped us with any additional requests while we ate. Definitely love the soul he adds to the restaurant. The ambiance is pretty casual. The one thing to note is that the parking lot can be a bit small so parking may take more than one try if you have a bigger car.

I really enjoy the food. My favorite item to order is the fried yam and chofi. If you like crunchy,…read morecrispy yam chips, you will definitely enjoy this meal. The meat is tossed in a pepper sauce that is very flavorful and really brings everything together. I've also tried the jollof rice, which was okay, but the fried yam remains my favorite and is always my staple order.

I ordered the Banku and okra soup at Asanka Delight. I heard about them on TikTok, and I was really…read moreexcited to try their food. Overall, the food itself was good after removing the seafood from it, and the portion size was great, definitely enough to save for the next day. The staff seemed very nice, and the restaurant looked clean. That said, I was a little disappointed that I didn't get the meats I requested. I wanted goat meat but got one tiny crab, two shrimp, and four pieces of beef. They also mentioned that all their okra soup is made in one pot, meaning all the meats are cooked together. This can be a problem for people with seafood allergies or certain religious restrictions. I don't eat seafood, so I had to remove it. I hope they can find a way to better accommodate people with dietary restrictions in the future. I would still be open to trying other items on their menu.

We ordered the Jollof Rice with Goat Stew and the Potatoe Leaf Stew. All was AMAZING! While we waited, she gave us the meat pies to try, with the perfect amount of curry and spice. She also does trays for events and now we have a place that will accommodate our next family event with the food we all love. Thank you Mrs. Hajara for sharing your restaurant and good food with us. We will definitely be back for more.

So minutes go by and then more and more. At 12:55 pm we finally got our food. The other people got tired of waiting and left. We didn't get all of our food-they forgot part of our order-hope someone else was able to enjoy our puff puffs! The food was average but the lack of service was exceptional. If the person at the counter had communicated with us about the time it would have made a difference. Being polite goes a long way. BTW-someone came in for a mobile order and was told it would be a wait. They muttered some words I will not write. In truth-it was our fault for ignoring the massive red flag-empty restaurant at lunch time. Hope they work out their issues but we aren't going back.

I have been about three times and generally enjoyed the food, except the jollof. It wasn't good at all. The yellow rice and stew were delicious. I guess my biggest complaint was the increase in prices. They were originally fair, but increased drastically which is why I probably won't return for a quick lunch. The service was food court style: regular. The decorations were lively and bright. I liked the chalkboard menu. Check out my video reviews and more on my various platforms: CocoaAlmondJoy/CocoasJoy

Since I'd not been before, I asked the man at the counter to taste their egusi stew before I decided and it was good. It does have a kick to it. Of course, if you didn't like a little heat, you wouldn't be in a West African restaurant. Mine came with 2 pieces of moist chicken and jollof (a couple dry places, but overall good). They garnish with a couple pieces of plantains. This is one of the biggest plates of food I've ever seen! I'll be eating on this for days! I'll be returning to taste other dishes.

This is an interesting restaurant because it serves both Ethiopian food and Central American food…read more When you enter the restaurant, you immediately sense that food is the focus here, not the décor or ambience. Latin music was blasting, and later the TV switched to a soccer game, all in Spanish. We tried a 4-dish combo and a fish dish, all very good - tasty, complex flavors. We also enjoyed the bread (injera, like sourdough bread in flavor) and the rice that comes with the dishes. This is my first time trying Ethiopian food. It reminds me of Indian food with the uses of lots of similar spices and the complex stew dishes. Our server was nice and checked on us frequently. I also got to practice my Duolingo Spanish with him--most of it was lost in translation. It was a fun experience. The fish dish was my favorite.
