I went before they closed around 7:45pm (they close at 8pm) to get food for my daughter to try, but they were already closed. But this kind lady behind the counter (didn't catch her name) made it happen. I ordered the egusi soup with yams, so amazing and flavorful! Definitely recommend! I will stay I was a little intimidated by the guy behind the counter eyeing me down, which is completely understandable but very unprofessional.

The closest to home-cooked Nigerian food in Minneapolis! I've been looking for a Nigerian food spot since moving here. I've been asking many African folks that I would run into. Then, I was in an Uber with a Nigerian driver and he recommended African Deli. A few weeks later, I went and ordered spicy jollof rice and fish. After the first bite I knew I found what I was looking for! I came back the next day and order pounded yam and egusi soup. If you're ever in Brooklyn Park, stop by African Deli for authentic Nigerian food. The place is clean and has great customer service.

This is the best African food you can find in the cities area. So far I've tried the egusi soup, pepper soup (very spicy!), curry, fufu, jollof rice, plantains, and beef patties. It's all been consistently made fresh well and perfectly seasoned. Staff is always super helpful even though I butcher the pronunciation of some dishes. There's plenty of meat options but you can get them all vegetarian if you want. My personal favorites are the beef patties and sweet plantains. You'll find that this place gets extremely busy right around lunch and dinner time, but always stays clean despite it being small and seating maybe 7 groups at a time. If you're looking for an ethnic/home style option this is it!

A ton of options. I recommend deciding what vegetable entrée that you want first. Then, you can add whichever meat to the veggie entrée. They don't really allow you to add veggies as a side, so it's best to pick the veggie first. A great thing about this place is they allow you to choose multiple meat options without any extra charge. So you can get goat, lamb, beef, chicken for the same price as ordering only one meat. Pepper soups are great.

Stumbled upon this while in the area. The staff was friendly and patient, helping me sort out what to get. Got some fish with spinach and beans and it was DELICIOUS! Also generous portion, so I got to take half home for later. Ordered spicy, and it's not Korean spicy but tasty all the same!

I've been here before and have ordered some delicious West African Food. Unfortunately, today this wasn't the case. My order was mixed up, and my greens were burned. They added beans to my jollof rice when I asked for a side of beans. I wasn't satisfied with the quality or taste of my food at all. When I informed the staff of the taste of my greens, they taste them and agreed and provided me with a new batch. The customer service was fine. The environment was clean. I am extremely disappointed and don't know when I will give them another chance to redeem themselves due to such a poor experience. I spent damn near $40 on food that I didn't enjoy at all.

I ordered food for my daughter's birthday party. $144.00 to be exact. I have ordered from here before the food is usually great. Last night we purchased egusi, plantains, and greens - not great but ok. But the Egusi Soup was her main request, we bought 4 large containers of it and It was awful. ALL OF IT! I have never had egusi that tasted so bad - it was bitter with a sour aftertaste. And surprisingly, no seasoning, no peppers, nothing. Of course, I called the restaurant and no one answered the phone. It was too late to return the food. I was so surprised by the taste of the food - it was not edible. This ruined our dinner party and I will always remember to not buy anything from this restaurant again. Order from them at your own risk. I would give them a zero on last night's food but the program insists that they get one star. they really did not deserve one star - this dinner was a complete failure. We ended up ordering food from someplace else to save the evening's plans.

I love this place. I've been coming here for years, and it's still got some of the best African food in The Minneapolis area. Every time I venture out, I always regret not going to African deli. The whole community goes here so I do recommend calling in advance! Sometimes I have to wait longer than expected, but Patrick and the other staff work hard. I never demonize them, ever.
