Bukom Café

Fodor's Review:

Sunny African pop music, palm fronds, kente cloth, and a spicy West African menu all brighten this narrow, two-story dining room. Entrées range from egusi (goat with melon seeds) and kumasi (chicken in peanut sauce) to vegetarian dishes such as jollof (rice with vegetables and tomato sauce). Live reggae and calypso keep this place hopping at night.
