The staff is friendly, attentive and helpful in making a good selection. The atmosphere was welcoming, clean and had a nice vibe. My meal was fresh, tasty and the portion was PERFECT! The jollof, shito and grilled lamb is a 10/10!
Very neat place,African food at it best. I love my Waakye and my wife had the fufu
I first came to Asantes in 2021 and have never looked back. Food is just so good, everyone is so friendly and as an Asian, I have never felt unwelcome. The fellow customers that come would suggest new things for me to try. It’s just a community. The employees and owner would always try to converse with everyone. It’s such a great place to be. My bestie and I make it a thing to come by every month for a girls lunch. Never ever disappoints. She always gets the oxtail and jollof rice and I will get the fufu and okra stew.
Staff was professional and friendly. Restaurant was clean. The food was absolutely delicious and being a pescatarian, I had a lot of options to choose from. The red snapper was fried to perfection that I was able to eat the entire fish, eat the head and crush the bones.
Food was very flavorful and the women behind the counter were very helpful explaining all the dishes. Especially enjoyed the Egusi with Fufu. Make sure to try the natural soursop drink and the spinach side dish!!
This is the first Afro Caribbean restaurant I have been to which is clean and the staff are super friendly. Trina was a great host she was very friendly Coming from London We were all very impressed and will definitely be back
Nice and clean local Ghanaian restaurant with professional and friendly service. The server was extremely polite and patient. I was surprised by how many local options they had - almost everything I could think of. They offer both deliver and dine-in option for lunch and dinner. Easy to also shop for local ingredients from an African store right next door. Free parking available.
Fantastic Ghanaian food bursting with flavor. Trina was super nice to have introduced the dishes. Jollof rice was pleasantly loose grained and amply seasoned. Bean and rice was wonderfully mixed and textured. Tilapia was of good size and nicely grilled prep. Pickled veggies were a great addition, sweet and sour.
