We came as a family to Africana today for the first time. We ordered sharing platters, steak and curry with naan. The steak was absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked. The curry and chicken starters were fabulous and delicious. The food came very quickly and it was well presented. The staff were very friendly and kind. I would definitely go back again and would suggest anyone going for the first time. Really impressed, keep it up.

Had a lovely meal with plenty of variety. The puff pastry was nice when dipped in their house chilli sauce as a starter.The meat platter was plenty of food for 3-4 people and the Mac n cheese was fresh, not a microwave job like you find in many other places!The steak was cooked a little more well done than requested and the waiter kindly offered several times to change it but we told him not to worry as it was still nice and I’d rather not waste food. All the food was hot and tasty with different marinades and condiments. The Afrikana house marinade was the best pick of the bunch.Service was great and genuinely friendly from every staff member who regularly checked in to make sure we were ok and that the food was fine, and it was genuine care rather than asking as a formality.A nice night all round, thank you.

Table for 5 reserved as it can be a ball ache of a wait some times. Food was served fast and hot, nice choice of food on the menu but prices are a bit high. Service could have been better but they were busy which lacked attention to all diners.If it was cheaper we would come back, as an individual with friends it's great to visit. I can't afford +£100 for a family meal for 5 on the regular.

1st time experience for Couple, never tried any of the restaurants up this end of Ladypool Road - only because of the silly riff raff of the drug fueled youth that hang about here.Can I say, this restaurant is in the wrong location - but if it works for the owners, then great.From the moment of walking in on a Thursday night, it was quiet, suoerb ambient setting and I was impressed by Tash's acknowledgement of turning down the music, he had no issue and kindly obliged without fuss.From first impressions, is it safe to say it has a family based environment from customers, which I liked, no shouting from customers (this is a put off for me personally depending on what type of eating out your intentions are)Both Tash and Summaya gave excellent customer service, extremely polite and willing at all moments of our 1st time experience.Food was delicious and piping hot 10/10, will we come back yes, most certainly.I would be curious if they can get food and customer service quality during peak periods as on our visit it was not busy (but we had no complaints), we just wanted an evening out when the food would hit the spot and it did.Established was clean - I was impressed with the table space for 2 people to dine in, with the addition of large spacious chairs - it was a comfortable seating during eating. Relaxed atmosphere.This place is great for family get togethers, ok parking would be issue for some who struggle to walk long distance, but it would be worth it, and if you can put up with the no-good youth that loiter the streets, then this is a place to visit.Look forward to returning to this place in the near future.

I rarely review but this place is great. Food is fresh and tasty. I had the fish and chips. Great taste and crispy on outside. Also the tartar sauce was yum. You can tell everything made fresh. Nothing store bought. Wife had the burger meal. Was tasty. The decor is beautiful to sit and chill in. The service was 5 star. Waitor asked was polite and attentive. Highly recommend and will be going again insha Allah. Even the cola was so tasty. Lolll I ordered dessert and shared with the Mrs. We loved it. Oh and the chips were great. Crispy on outside and fluffy on inside with a nice house sauce on top. I am a tough person to please and very critical of food but this place was perfect. Will be trying the steak next time

The food was really good, don’t get me wrong. However, it wasn’t my kind of taste. Me and my friend visited Afrikana, as I had heard many good things about their food. The waiters were very friendly, the food arrived in pretty good time; just enough time to take pictures. The presentation was fantastic of the food, especially the dry ice for the perfect instagram picture! Even the complimentary hot wipe they offer at the end of the meal was an illustration of good service. A big shout out to Jay, who was fantastic!

Had a lovely dinner for a special occasion, was looking for a good meal and they didn’t disappoint. I can’t vouch for the authenticity as I’m not well versed in the cuisine of the continent but overall it was delicious, and similar to other dishes I’ve tried before. I had the goat curry which was great and the ambience of the place really sold the night. Will gladly be coming again to try other items on the menu. Also cheers to Jay for tending to us and making the experience as a whole great.
