Serving Authentic West African FoodCustomer Testimonials
Good food, good atmosphere and amazing service. We will be visiting again and spreading the word about the food. All the food was fresh and had good prices too. There were 7 in our party and they were busy but kept up the pace and we didn't wait too long for our meals. We'll definitely be back often. Thank you Akwaba family!
Deandra J.
Deandra J.The food was delicious and I would go there again, little bit pricey but delicious. The Pastel (meat pie), Lamb dibi, beef kebab, rice and beans, and fried plantain were all good. I really enjoyed the ginger juice (good ginger spicy and sweet drink, so good). There isn't a large staff so service might be slow, even when not very busy. So come with patience and grace.
Anushka J.
Anushka J.This was me and my partners first time trying fufu, we got the meat pie, lamb dibi, jollof rice, and peanut butter soup with fufu. It was absolutely amazing! I think it's all my new favorite thing to eat. We will be coming back asap because I can't wait to try something new. This stuff is DELICIOUS!
Madison S.
Madison S.The food was exceptional! There aren't many West African restaurants in Colorado, so this one definitely stands out. The front service was very nice (by the tall guy). The atmosphere was peaceful and clean (with some good music in the background). Will be returning!
Odette T.
Odette T.The best west African food that I've had in the US so far! Very clean and comfortable atmosphere. It takes a while for the food to be prepared but, hello, that's because they're cooking it fresh. Amazing food. Will definitely be back!
Sue W.
Sue W.Oh it was delicious! Loved the meat pies, turkey tails, and jollof rice. Atmosphere was super friendly, and I loved the music. It was a wonderful, and I would definitely recommend trying it out if you've never had West African food before. Our server was very friendly and helped us pick out food and his choices were great. Loved it 10/10
