Sumah's West African Restaurant & Carryout

I read the reviews so I was prepared and able to exercise patience in order to enjoy my visit. It took a long time for us to be seated (like 10 min of being ignored) and way longer for the waitress to come over to get our order. She brought a sample plate since my friend never had west African food before. I loved getting to taste everything so that I could see which dishes they really do well. We ended up ordering pepper soup (with cow foot), egusi, and palava sauce. All of it was AMAZING!! I also tried the ginger juice since I wasn’t aware it was BYOB and neglected to bring a bottle. The owner was very nice and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The food was much better than it was at Appioo. I’ll definitely be back!

The place is closed due to a fire. Hopefully, it will reopen!

The owner was so nice. We were greeted as soon as we came in. The food is delicious and abundant. You must try the ginger juice.
