    The food is well cooked and unique. The staff is friendly enough to make it feel like home. The building looks like a historical landmark inside celebrating our roots. Whether you're vegan or not, they will have something you like and they're right off the highway.

    The vegan burrito bowl was amazing. The service was with a smile as usual. The atmosphere is always very calming and welcoming! I will defiantly be back

    Absolutely amazing! The food, the staff, the atmosphere. I was looking for a restaurant that served both plant based food (vegan type) for my husband and regular meat based food for myself and this was a home run! We were enjoying our food so much that my husband who likes to take pictures of food nearly forgot to take any. Hubbies vegan mushroom Swiss chicken sandwich was a hit and his purple rain smoothie was amazing. There was a slight miscommunication and instead of beef I got a turkey burger patty with my bbq bacon burger but I decided to just try it first before saying anything and I am glad the mistake was made because I thoroughly enjoyed it!!! I've never liked a turkey burger before and I've tried a few. I liked it so much that if I'm able to make it here again (I live 5+ hr away) I will be torn between having the turkey burger or the beef! They also make a delicious hibiscus tea! So if you eat meat this place is for you, if you don't eat meat this place is for you. If you want a smoothie or hibiscus tea or a cocktail or beer (among other things!!) this place is for you. If you want a relaxed vibe this place is for you..... basically- go give it a try!!

    The turkey mushroom Swiss burger was amazing. It was seasoned well. It brought me back to the memories of those old school burgers you can't find anymore. The turkey burger was made to perfection The sweet potatoes fries accented the turkey burger well!

    Sankofa is a must if you are in the DFW area! Fresh, real, seasoned ingredients that are made by a wonderful loving family- can never go wrong with that! They offer A rather straightforward menu either you want vegan or meat style. The meats they offer are chicken. Seafood, turkey and recently added beef. The menu is literally divided in half for vegans and meat eaters. Example: they will have a turkey spaghetti and a vegan spaghetti or a fish Poboy and a vegan fish Poboy. And when you order the fish it is not just frozen vegan fish they actually marinate eggplant I believe in order to achieve the fish fillet affect. They definitely knocked all of their vegan recipes out of the park! If you are vegan I recommend you try but even meat eaters need to try Sankofa kitchen!! Hibiscus tea is a must!!! We buy the biggest container they have every time. When you walk in you are always greeted with a very warm hello and you immediately settle in to a calm Zen. The interior and art gives you vibes of a jazz lounge but centered around the kitchen. While you wait you can also shop their handmade soaps , black educational books, and even some art.

    Sankofa Kitchen & Bar at 4141 W Wheatland Rd, Dallas, TX 75237 Today I was blessed with the amazing Ms Fields who gave me a good understanding and history of this wonderful establishment. Family owned and operated for many years. They bring culture, consciousness and cuisine to this neighborhood and city. So many pictures here I wish I had in my own house. The vibe is definitely a place where you and your friends can come relax and enjoy a good meal. The music is always playing with a lot of culture, arts, crafts, t-shirts, oils and soaps to be purchased. I asked what are the most popular menu items and got them. We have a juicy turkey burger with fries, vegan nachos and a chicken burrito. To be honest this food is meant to be eaten on site when it is the most fresh. I got it all as a take-home and did not eat it until later in the day. Except I did chop down on that chicken burrito before I even left the parking lot it was delicious. This is the type of place that you need to come to and see if you fit the vibe. Please remember parking on the property is for this establishment only.

    UPDATED DETAILED REVIEW:…read more Food: The food is always 10/10. I usually order the same thing every time; Fried Oreos, Mexican Potato, etc. and it always tastes the same so I don't have room for complaints. Service: 10/10 The workers are always friendly/respectful and get to customers whenever they have a chance. I will say the wait time is long but that's because the food is MADE TO ORDER. It's fresh food, *not* fast food. If you're not patient or on a time crunch then this isn't the place you should be dining at. There is literally a disclaimer on the ordering window by checkout talking about the wait time and their reasoning as to why orders take so long. There's also an app where you can order ahead of time! Ambiance: 7/10 The vibe of the place is kinda like a mom and pop shop. The walk-in is small and can fit about three people comfortably MAX. It's not made to sit down and eat (there is a lil seating area but we use it more as a waiting area than dining.) It just gets a bit uncomfy when DoorDashers are trying to pick up orders and customers are also placing orders, it gets packed like a can of sardines...

    I've only ever been here one time and I had the carne asada fries and they weren't all that to me…read more The carne was ni V ely seasoned but thats all I can remember liking. I do remember I said cheese on the side and they put it on my fries. It was all melted on everything. I let my neice and nephews eat most of it. Would I try something else on their menu...idk. Probably...if I didnt have to pay for it.

    4.8 Let me put y'all on to a hidden gem…read more Crunchy B's is a Black-owned dessert spot specializing in cookies and homemade ice cream--and babyyy, they do NOT disappoint. We first ordered through Uber Eats and loved it so much, we looked them up and realized they were right near us in Lancaster! Since then, we've been consistent supporters because it's just THAT good. Now let's talk favorites. The honey butter cornbread cookies?! Don't be taken aback by the name. Absolute perfection--soft, rich, and melt-in-your-mouth GOOD. And the Oreo cookies?? Whew... easily top tier For the ice cream, the buttered pecan is smooth, creamy, and full of flavor And the cookies n creme?? Loaded, delicious, and everything you want it to be Take home message: If you're anywhere near Lancaster, you NEED to check them out and support this amazing Black-owned business Trust me--you'll be hooked just like we are!

    We did not know this place existed. It was my son's girlfriend's birthday and she doesn't do cake…read more My son told me about this new place that is LocALLy owned just minutes away. It's located in the same shopping area as the Lancaster Cinema Movies by Aaron's. It does need more marketing and the tree in front of placed in a different place. It's there! Don't drive by it. Why not try it? We went on a Sunday around 2pm and my nose appreciated it tremendously. For the grand opening, all guests were invited to "sign the wall". The wall had 100s of signatures. We were greeted by a newly employed, friendly Miss. The store was clean, clean, clean. FRESH! One large cookie was $3. Special for multiple cookies purchased. They offered minis too. Day old cookies (what's that?) were only $8 for a bag. Did I mention their ice cream? Everything was great. A lil pricey, but we need to support our community FIRST. We will be back.
