Great! - Edit

This is an amazing restaurant to check out to get the full cultural experience and to try out authentic African cuisine from various African countries. They have live music, it's beautifully decorated, and the staff members were dressed lovely. There are three vegan meals, one vegan starter, and a few vegan friendly sides. I tried the Mama Africa Pap Chips and Mama Africa Vegan Stew. Both were yummy. If they add a few more vegan options to the menu then they will be solid!

Pros: Live music, Friendly staff

Cons: Few vegan options

Need improvement for veggies - Edit

The restaurant is amazing for meat eaters, but I felt my meal too simple. Perhaps, the vegetarian and African food could be more explored there. I have good experiences with Congolese and Ethiopian food. I hope to return to a more veg friendly CT!

Pros: Beautiful restaurant , Great live music, Amazing staff

Cons: Few options , Poor plates in general, Expensive

Referred - Edit

A very good client of mine visited Mama Africa for the first time last week. He was very pleased with the vegan dish served by our restaurant. He said he had been looking for an African restaurant serving vegan African dishes but he couldn't one listed on this platform. He later referred me to this platform so that other people looking to have an African Vegan dish can find us here. Thank you for making this platform available!
