Best African Restaurants in River Oaks

First time here but we’ll definitely be back! The food was outstanding, packed with flavor and well presented. The staff were friendly and attentive without any hassle or hurry, just right. The restaurant was pretty full but not so loud that you had to raise your voice to talk. It was very reasonably priced too.

Very nice atmosphere! But overpriced the food was okay but not $200 worth. Desert were very creative. Loved it!

A Culinary Experience Beyond Compare – Chef Tristen Epps Delivers a 12/10 Feast Attending A Culinary Journey was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment the first bite hit my palate, I knew this was going to be an unforgettable evening. Chef Epps masterfully wove together history, culture, and flavor, transforming each dish into a powerful story of resilience, influence, and innovation. My favorites were: the Carolina Gold Rice Porridge—luxurious, comforting, and layered with the smoky umami of mussels, charred Brussels sprout leaves, and the rich heat of duck ham shito. And the Ricotta Cassava Dumplings? A true masterpiece. Delicate yet bold, with egusi butter and smoked turkey creating a depth of flavor that felt both nostalgic and completely new. This wasn’t just a meal. It was a masterclass in storytelling through food, a love letter to the flavors and traditions that have shaped global cuisine. Chef Tristen Epps is a culinary genius, and this was easily one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. If you have the chance to attend, do not hesitate. 12/10—absolutely phenomenal.
