Best places: West african restaurants in London, United Kingdom

Laid-back restaurant offering traditional Nigerian tapas, including meatballs & chicken wings.

🫤 My partner and myself have been to Pitanga 4 times, two of them we had a good experience and two of them it was awful. I cannot understand how someone is offering Nigerian food in a restaurant and disrespects those who come from the land! Unfortunately the bad experiences have overpowered the good o...

👍 Despite the fact that restaurant was busy we managed to get a table as walk in customers. It was my first time trying Nigerian cuisine. I am impressed with flavours, big portions and quality of food. I was a bit worried that I will not be able to manage spiciness of dishes, however I did (and I am...

African fusion eats are served with beer & gin in a relaxed dining room with basic furnishings.

👍👍 I'm one of those people who don't usually post reviews, yet I'm always the first to look at them when making a purchase! Nomie's Kitchen however, is one of those exceptions! The first time I ever had one of the meat pies was over 5 yrs ago but honestly I can never forget it... It was SO amazing and...

African specialties in an unpretentious eatery with TV screens on the walls and live music nights.

😠 First of all i dont appreciate being called an 'oyinbo' because i wanted to eat my poundo with a fork instead of using my hands. For hygiene i use forks when i eat in and you guys didnt even have proper washing facilites how rude to question my dark skinned blackness when you have the cheek to be bl...

🫤 I was there yesterday with my friend and we thought it wouldn’t be okay to visit London and not have Nigerian food. The food tasted okay, I won’t deny that. But I’ve been very sick sick then, severe diarrhoea and vomiting, I phoned my friend to check on him and he’s going through the same thing. The...

👍👍 Travelled to London for some days with my friend and visits this restaurant, the food were so delicious and well presented, the stuff were so nice and friendly. This is the best of all African restaurants that I have been with the best of meals.

😠 POOR, DISAPPOINTING SERVICE. I don’t recommend! We arrived on Friday at 1pm. restaurant was completely empty, we asked if the 2 of us could sit at a table for 4 to get some additional space for the dishes. The woman abruptly told us No, she said as it’s the weekend, we will have to take the table...

😐 I can’t lie, I believe the food they give to customers who takeaway is old/stale and the food eaten in the restaurant is fresh. I was so excited to come home and eat my Jollof and beef stew but then I looked closely at the rice and it had bits of fury mold on it and my meat just tasted staaaale 😢....

😠 Enish is notorious for poor customer service but this branch is especially bad! Firstly there were way too many staff working - about 30 people to about 5 tables of 2. Waiters knowledge of the menu was nonexistent - they said they didn't have what I ordered so I ordered something else then they brou...

👍👍 Beautiful cannot believe I have lived this long and not realised there is some where like this. I have tried African foods, Ghanaian foods in various settings and this beats all of them hands down. Unpretentious, down to earth and quality on price. As for the food put of this world. You name it th...

👍👍 Love eating there. Ravi is so welcoming and kind. The food is great. My favourite are fried noodles and fried rice. The roti is also delicious.

Nigerian restaurant serving homestyle dishes, in a modern dining room with orange and black decor.

😠 The positives- Plantain was Delicious! That's about it... I have recently moved to the area and found the D'luxx restaurant through the Meerkat (2 for 1) app. The reviews seemed good and I love trying new food. I made sure to call first, book a table and state that I would be using the discount. Ev...

Bar bites, African dishes & cocktails are delivered at this relaxed gastropub with live DJs.

👍 Location is right on the high street of Barking so can’t be missed. Not a very big place so limited in the number of people that can be hosted. There’s a bit of parking available on the side street and parking is free from about 7pm. I had the grilled fish on my two visits and I can vouch that it’s...

🫤 Pros: the portions are massive, really provide value for money. Prices are reasonable. Menu is authentically Nigerian and tasty AF. Although the music started a bit loud, the place really had a good ambiance. Cons: The egusi is so good it seems even the cockroaches want some! Naturally we asked the...

👍👍 I ordered jollof Rice and chicken and it tasted really delicious with a bit of spicy which gave it more flavour. Great presentation. The restaurant has a calm and beautiful atmosphere and great music. I will definitely recommend it. 😋👍👍💖💖
