" I ordered takeout for lunch, and while the food was decent, it was not as warm as I would have liked. The chicken was flavorful, but the portions felt a bit smaller compared to what I remember. I might give it another shot but maybe try next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Totally loved my experience at Afro Deli & Grill! The sambusas were crispy and packed with flavor, and the vibe of the place made it even better. I think it’s an affordable option for such good food. Can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious, fresh food with a friendly vibe. The BBQ chicken was tasty, however, I felt it lacked a bit of seasoning compared to other dishes I've had. Overall, worth a visit if you’re nearby. " (*Curated Review*)

" Authentic and flavorful! I enjoyed every bite of my meal. Try the sambusas—they're deliciously crispy. The only downside was the limited seating; it can get crowded. Will definitely return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is amazing! Whatever recipe they use, it works. The spicy lamb jacket is a must-try! Portions are huge, and you definitely get what you pay for. Can’t recommend this place enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" Meh, it was not bad, but nothing special either. The chicken was average. But service was friendly. Don’t think I’d return unless invited. " (*Curated Review*)

" First time here, and I wasn't disappointed! The yassa chicken had a lovely tang and was cooked to perfection. The portions are generous, and the staff was welcoming. I'll definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)
