Great Nigerian restaurant. Had the Ogbono soup with pounded yam and it was very good! Will definitely be back to try their Egusi soup and Jollof rice.
The food is very spicy, I got medium spice as they all come in medium spice, and it’s very hot. The chicken is horrible. The spaghetti is great but spicy. I would not recommend unless you’re familiar with Nigerian food.
The food is absolutely delicious! It literally reminds me of home! Such a comforting place to eat at! I come at least once a month when I want to be reminded of home. And great prices too. The staff is so friendly and I just can’t get enough of how great this place is!
Dropped in after seeing the place while walking by. I had never had Nigerian food before but thought I would give it a try. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Food was quick. Portion size was good. Food was delicious, some spice but not too hot. Would definitely visit again.
I ordered the Egusi soup and it came with poundo. It was delicious. I have never tried an African dish before so I don’t have anything to compare it to, but I would say this place is a 10/10. The staff is super friendly and I love how the food is prepared fresh. I can’t wait to go back and try the Goat pepper soup. Also that poundo was everything I dreamt it would be.
Authentic Nigerian flavors at their best! The jollof rice was perfectly spiced, The portions were generous, and the atmosphere made us feel right at home. A must-visit for anyone craving genuine Nigerian cuisine!
Gotten the jollof rice with chicken a few times and have no complaints with the food. The cooks are super friendly, but the front of house service could be worked on (seem only interested in there phones/laptops).
Afroheat Safari should be the next place you try if you are craving flavor! This store is run by someone who loves what they do and it shows in their food. I ordered Jollof Rice with Plantain and Coleslaw. What I received was a very generous portion of rice, freshly fried plantain smothered in the most delicious sauce as well as a side of coleslaw. The meal was satisfying and left me wanting for nothing else. I could eat this food for breakfast, lunch and dinner and be happy. When I returned the next day for more I was greeted with the owner's story from back home. It was so refreshing to be able to converse with the person who had just cooked me a delicious meal. It made me feel warm, welcome and at home. I will be returning as soon as possible. Please consider stopping by the next time you are in Downtown Hamilton. You won't regret it.
Very nice atmosphere, delicious food, good staffs
This is my first time to try African food. It s so good! I tried okro soup and fufu. I really like it! Okro soup is spicy and delicious! Definitely will visit again.
Amazing meal, truly gave the Nigerian feel. The portion is also amazing. Would definitely come back again.
If you re a foodie like me, you ll love this place! The menu has a fantastic selection of Nigerian dishes, and I loved everything I tried. I can t wait to come back again.

Great experience love the food y all should try it
God bless this establishment, i have been eating here for a while now and i can say the food the staff speaks volumes. The food quantity and quality is unmatched. 100/100 experience here every single time. The owners are amazing as well, Afrosafari is by far my favourite nigerian food spot in Hamilton
Amazing food, and great customer service. I would definitely recommend
The best African restaurant I have seen in Canada
Food was amazing, and love the staff
Pick up is immediate. Wait times for In-person order is very short. There is music to make you entertained while waiting. The food tastes delicious and the best yet in Hamilton. Food
The best Nigerian food in Hamilton 10/10 would recommend
The couple s were very friendly, it takes them less than 30 minutes to prepare 5 portions of food. The jollof rice was ok I give it a 7, the banger soup was massive. I give it a 10, and the ogbonor was poor i will give it a 3. The proteins was very tender but not that spicy I will give it a 8.
I placed an order on DoorDash for boiled yam and stew with chicken and jollof spaghetti with chicken. Upon placing the order I contacted the restaurant asking if I could receive only chicken thigh pieces or a wing for the boiled yam and stew meal they reassured me that it would not be a problem. Once I received my order I was instantly disappointed I barely received any stew majority of my meal was boiled yam. I then realized I did not receive any chicken with my meal I rushed to give the restaurant a call regarding my order as I spent a total of 70 dollars for this order. The owner was extremely rude and unprofessional his instant approach was to argue with me instead of apologizing. I tried to plead with him but it seemed like he just did not care. I will not be eating or ordering from this restaurant again.
Nice jollof rice, and the chicken that comes with each plate is worth the price.
Bought some jollof and some rice a couple months ago and have been craving it since! If you re in the area and enjoy good food, you won t be disappointed
Very good customer service, and meal was nice.
The meals are excellent especially the jollof rice and plantain. But they need to improve on their customer service.
Good service and excellent taste. I like
Th service is fast the place is clean the food is good!
Fast and friendly, perfect amount of spice.
Fast and sweet. Home feel
I had the pleasure of a fine African cuisine. The price, portion, flavor and people are awesome. I was very impress with the flavor and portion. I truly recommend this place. Thank you guys for the quality food. This has been a memorable experience for me.
Amazing food, everything is so delicious!! Amazing service as well, we will definitely come back as much as possible!!
Lovely owners and good food what more could you ask for
Food was 10/10, very delicious and would definitely come back. Along with that customer service was 11/10, the owners made you feel welcome and were very polite

Met big boy Kenny Greatest cook in Hamilton Fr Food
I went to Afroheat safari restaurant ,two days ago to try for first time Nigerian Egusi soup with pound yam. Iam from Angola and have never tried Egusi before. I really enjoyed the food ,it was very delicious, and the owners were very welcoming people and the lady took time to explain to me the menu. I only give 4 stars because of the portion size ,I wish the Egusi portion was little big for the $25 I paid I will go back and order from them again for sure. Thanks AfroHeat Safari I really enjoyed the food
i ordered small Jollof rice with fried chicken for the first time and was very delicious will definetely order again but the next time will be a large plate of Jollof rice with fried chicken so glad i find this restaurant on Ubereats
Their soup is wonderful!
The food was soooo good I felt like I was in heaven. Fish was soo good I almost flew.
Very bad employees
We enjoyed the chicken, coleslaw and rice - the portions are generous, the food is delicious, the customer service is as expected and the price is right. We will definitely recommend to friends and family.
Good food and nice environment. I fully recommend their Jollof Rice and Chicken. Simply the best out here within Hamilton. Always a vibe!!
Afroheat, the place to eat in Hamilton!
I had a lovely day in Hamilton tasting the African menu. Food very well prepared and served with care and courtesy.
Great meal. I highly recommend this restaurant
Very nice place to Eat African food
I appreciated the meal and all the services I recommended it Food
I came yesterday for the first time and the jollof rice was awesome. I came again today for the vegetable soup and poundo and it was the best I be had in decades.
OMG the fried rice and jollof is amazing
The food was perfect, cravings met. it was giving home far from home .
Ordered jollof rice and fried chicken. Rice was great, but chicken was not edible. 2 small pieces, cooked so hard we could barely chew the meat. The texture and flavour was so off, we questioned if it was even chicken, (but there was thick, poorly plucked chicken skin) ... my guess is they fried the meat frozen!? It was so dry and tough, even my dog struggled to chew the meat! ... meat barely edible for a dog!
Garbage fried chicken l just ordered jollof rice and fried chicken on uber eats, jollof rice was ok and l couldnt eat their chicken it was hard as a rock let alone our puppy it gave up aswell. I wish l had a choice to give 0 stars
I stopped at the Afroheat safari Resturant in Hamilton, Canada. Visiting from Maryland USA I was looking for African cuisine and I was not disappointed!! Went looking for egusi soup but the chef and owner talked me into trying his Oha soup special and I obliged. It was very good! So good I thought I was sitting in a restaurant in downtown Onitsha. I will surely stop by again before my departure to the United States. If you happen to be in Hamilton Canada and love African food please stop by.
Definitely a sense of home in the dishes . Highly recommend
Amazing Authentic African food. The flavors were authentic and delicious, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The service was friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. Highly recommend trying there meals. All amazing. you wont be disappointed! Proper Naija food
Amazing fresh taste. 3 time eating from here and it brings out the African in me. lol. I love it! Friendly people inside as well. Very calm vibe.
Their soup is home made soup. Jolly rice so nice
Good lovely place
Very good restaurant to recommend. Delicious meals
They have the best service very nice people & i loved the Jollof spaghetti very much & the chicken was delicious i would definitely come back again:)
I usually dont give reviews, but this place deserves a 10star. I have been looking for a place where I can get an igbo vegetable soup or edikaikong. I just tried this place. Its definitely the best in town, so well made. I was really contemplating, but the owner (guy), who was super friendly and reassuring, told me I would definitely come back for more. Im definitely going back. The best in GTA hands down
Great food, even better customer service! Can t wait to come back again.
I don t leave reviews but this African restaurant is by far my favourite food is good every time I came she s really joyful so that makes it a bonus good energy and good food 10/10 recommend
The food was soooo good. And the portion size is amazing. Very happy. The customer service was good too. The whole place is such a vibe. All the customers and the staff talking like long lost friends. Will be back for sure!
Great place for authentic Nigerian food. I ordered the jallof rice with chicken, and it was delicious. The husband and wife are so warm and kind. Beautiful atmosphere. I highly recommend it!
First time ordering from the restaurant. I had ordered vegetable soup. One of the best Nigerian dishes I ve had in Hamilton. I would definitely recommend it to anyone. Thank you.
Don t think this review is fake cause I m being honest, Very good service, as soon as you walk in the chef is making you laugh, but don t get me started on the food, it s one of the best food tasting Nigerian food in the city if I m being honest, definitely my new favorite spot right now.
Nicely prepared food with good taste, staff are professional and kind.
Their dishes are amazing and taste good.
I saw this place regularly while walking past and figured Id find it on Google. The reviews were quite good, and I love trying new spots. This place wont win any awards for its atmosphere or storefront, but honestly its just a humble take out spot. I wont fault them for the lack of interior design choices. The two things Ill comment on here are the food and the price. The food was pretty good. I ordered the Jollof Rice. Plenty of rice and the sauce was pretty good. The guy working here made it in the back while I was there. The chicken has really decent spice on it, and despite clearly not being cooked fresh, was not too dry, but wasnt the best chicken. My biggest complaint about the food was the lack of chicken. There were two drumsticks and a huge amount of rice. I would have loved 3 or even 4 drumsticks for the amount of rice I got. But the biggest issue is the price. The menu on Google says the Jollof Rice is $16, but at the store it said $17, and then when I went to pay it was for some reason $19.25? For the amount of reheated chicken I got nearly $20 isnt even close to an acceptable price. For $10 or even maybe $15 including tax, Id be back here in a heartbeat for its alright take-out African options, but for the price of a sit down restaurant with freshly cooked meat, Im not going to be returning unfortunately. I really hate that because the food was okay, and I love to visit local small businesses over multinational chains, but youve got to impress for that price, or do something solid for an affordable price. You cant charge premium prices for middling take-out.
The food is delicious so much that I order a portion of almost everything on the menu whenever I visit. This is my new spot!
Food here is great, so far I ve tried the jollof rice and spaghetti and I totally recommend. The owners are also amazing.
Amazing food. When you go try the jollof spaghetti! Great customer service.
My first time ordering from here, I ordered swallow and egusi and it gave both me and my partner food poisoning. There must be a quality issue. Wouldnt recommend this restaurant the food came in a very poor condition, it looks like they gave us what was stuck under the pot.
Afroheat Safari African Restaurant is a top notch restaurant with excellent meals and services. A trial will convince you. Pls, try their delicacies, for the taste of the puddy is in the eating! Thanks.
We ordered fried yam and stew (egg) and jolloff rice with chicken. Both the dishes were tasty and flavourful. The fried yam and stew was very oily with a pool of oil at the bottom of the container. I also felt that the price is a bit steep.
Eat once and be back many times later TASTY Food
I enjoyed the food and the costumer service
The jollof rice and chicken is very delicious here. I would warn against anything with fish if you arent Nigerian or havent had it before. I ordered the egusi and cat fish stew. I was not able to eat it, but I suspect its not for everyone.
Wonderful food and the service is really great as well, would highly recommend a visit
Jollof rice with fish is fantastic !
Great food ! A little on the pricier side but they give big portions which is great . The Jollof rice is really good , the turkey and chicken too! Overall great place to eat!
The lady behind the counter is super nice & the food was amazing! Ive tried their jollof & their Okoro with Gari/Eba, they were both awesome!
They are inconsistent with their food and always make mistakes. Have given me wrong order like 3 times in a row, with multiples of my friends as well.
Bad example of african restaurant in Hamilton, . Very rude man. The food he gave to me even dog will not accept it, i waisted my 46 dollar just like that.
Food is amazing!
I tasked the food few some days ago...and I have been going back every for almost a week now...wonderful people...delicious meal and best customer service... God bless you guys...
I recently ordered the yam and egg sauce from Afroheat Safari, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! The yam was cooked to perfection, tender yet firm, and the egg sauce was bursting with flavor. Every bite was a delightful journey through rich, savory goodness. The portion size was generous, and the packaging ensured that the meal arrived fresh and hot. Overall, I highly recommend trying the yam and egg sauce from Afroheat Safari for a taste of authentic, delicious African cuisine. I ll definitely be ordering it again!
Amazing place nice staff incredible food
