Best of Philly

2017 African

Kings and Queens

African food in Philly has traditionally meant Ethiopian. But West African restaurants have been popping up lately, and this one has become our favorite. Newbie? Don’t worry; the cheerful staff loves showing people what’s up. Try the spicy goat-pepper soup and fried fish with jollof rice, with a side of plantains.
