[2-min walk from Shin-Nakano Station・African restaurant] What do you imagine when you hear "African cuisine"? Ethnic food may give a strong impression of being spicy, but African food is actually very simple and rustic! Spices are used too, but the flavors are mild and full of homey charm♪ The most classic dish is a plate of stew made with goat meat and vegetables, served with pounded yam (mashed yam). Locals tear this mash off by hand, knead it, and eat it with the stew! The interior has a homey atmosphere like a local eatery, so you can fully enjoy the feeling of being abroad. An African mot…

I know that West African dishes had deep influence to New Orleans foods, and indeed, they do tastes good! A restaurant full of art sence. Factually I think this is factually a bar, but the foods were still tasty! I mean, see, how well the chicken cooked! the meat is crisp and soft, I got mouthful of chicken's fresh fragrance, but chicken's special fishy smell was just diminished by the spice, that made the chicken tastes amazing! The rice was impressive too, in the past I thought Ghana food would tastes sweet and a little sour (because Ethiopian foods tastes like that), but factually the scent of rice was more like herbs. Interesting!

At the moment the owner is stying to renovate the menu, so some of the items are missing or not on sale anymore. But otherwise, it is is a great place. I think that if you end up not loving everything you get here, it is still great and unique experience. As said by others, the owner is really nice person.

Authentic West African (Nigerian) restaurant near Shin-Nakano station. So glad to have stumbled upon this place while walking around. Most plates are around ¥1,000-¥1,500 each. The taste seemed adjusted for the Japanese clientele, so maybe ask her to make it spicier if you would like. Pros: - the Nigerian owner/chef is very personable and so, so kind. She has been in Japan since the ‘90s and has traveled around the world - large food menu also a large drink menu. Cocktails and sodas are ¥600 each. - They offer African beer, but may be out of stock at times - they have fried plantains and the classic fufu (pounded yam)! Cons: - stairs are steep and narrow. Just a thought if you have mobility issues or are with a baby/elder person - I think it is cash only, but there is a 7-11 near by if you need an ATM. We’ll always come back when we are in the area :)

This place is amazing! It was my first time trying west African good and the owner explained everything to us. Every dish we tried was her recommendation and they were all delicious. I will definitely recommend this place to all my friends. It was a little expensive but good!

She heats up the precooked food in regular, non-microwave-safe plastic bags in the microwave, wich is absolutely not safe and food much likely will contain chemicals from the plastic. The owner was arguing that these are supposed to be japanese plastic bags and the japanese are always so correct with everything so these plastic bags would be safe for the microwave - wich is of course complete BS. I really don‘t want to harm peoples income sources, but when it comes to such negligencies, it‘s better to warn others.
