Reviews for Sumah's West African Restaurant in 1727 7th St NW, WA
THE ABSOLUTE BEST FOOD EVER!!!!!!! I get the Jollof rice and chicken Casava wow he can COOK
I remember enjoying their food when I lived in N.W. everything was delicious! Sumah and his wife Amara was always professional... and friendly. I?ve read the reviews and it says they?re taking orders and the pick up location is Bowie,MD. As much as I lovetheir cooking, I?m going to pass on that one. I?ll wait until the original location on 7th st. to reopen. I?m going ordereverything on the menu! Sending my prayers to the family.?????????????? Read more

The food is delicious, a real authentic West African cuisine. Jollof Rice, white or brown rice served with different sources... made out of Okra reach in Iron called Okra Soup, Sweet Potatoe Leaves and Greens both of which are very rich in Vits A, C & B6,Riboflavin and fiber. They have egusi Soup, Pounded Yam, Foofoo, Goat meat soup but above all I enjoyed the Cassava leaves themost cooked in rich Western African palm Oil. Read more

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 platesince my friend never had west African food before. I loved getting to taste everything so that I could see which dishes theyreally do well. We ended up ordering pepper soup (with cow foot), egusi, and palava sauce. All of it was AMAZING!! I also triedthe ginger juice since I wasn?t aware it was BYOB and neglected to bring a bottle. The owner was very nice and we thoroughlyenjoyed our visit. The food was much better than it was at Appioo. I?ll definitely be back! Read more
Amazing authentic food in a humble setting. The owner takes customer service to the extreme! When we went to leave it started... raining and he insisted that we borrow his umbrella! Portions are large and delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant! Read more
