The name 'The No.1 African Restaurant Café & Bar' is quite a mouthful, but it's also some claim!!…read moreIt's true that there aren't so many African restaurants in Cardiff, (you would think that there would be more considering the long relationship that Cardiff has had with Afro-Carribean culture), but to call yourself number one... well... I guess that's confidence for you! I have only ever eaten here once, and have to admit to being less than adventurous. A friend of mine is keenly into African food, and goes the full nine yards, devouring everything from pigs feet to goat curry, but a lot of the more unusual dishes really don't appeal to me. So, I stuck to chicken and chips whilst she embarked on a gastronomic adventure! There's plenty of options for the less ambitious eater at The No.1 African Restaurant including kebabs, burgers, fish and chips and chicken dishes, and so it's entirely possible to stick to something you know if you don't feel in the mood for taking any risks. My friend opted for the goat meat plate, and conversation ceased the moment it arrived and didn't really spark up again until she had cleaned her plate... I guess she enjoyed it! Christopher, the owner, is originally from the Congo, but serves a mix of different style dishes such as giraffe rice from Nigeria and Fu Fu from... I can't remember... (I was too traumatised by the idea of giraffe rice to be able to absorb any more information!)

Appearances are deceiving - the food is delicious, especially the goat, and portion sizes are…read moregenerous. Prices may seem a bit more expensive than what can be found on nearby City Road, but what they offer is decently-sized, delicious and generous. They also have a deal available (I think it's a main + carb?) that should be taken advantage of for a filling meal. Though the atmosphere may be daunting at first, the owner is a very lovely and friendly man and will gladly help translate any part of the menu for you.

I had the very tasty and juicy tagine chicken. Wifey had the chicken skewers. Customer service was pleasing in spite of the large crowd that gathered. Nice family Moroccan style restaurant.

Quite a small menu means the food comes quickly and is consistent, but a couple of specials would go down well with me just to add a little variety. BYO helps to keep the cost of a meal down and there's an off license nearby. Corkage is £2 per bottle. Do phone for a reservation, it's quite popular
