Afro Deli Grill: St. Paul

I was looking for a different restaurant when an amazing smell full of spices distracted me. I’m so glad it did, because this place is amazing! Marinated chicken over rice with yogurt sauce and allll the vegetables, sweet potato fries, and sweet spiced Somali tea and I am the happiest punctuation mark in the world. Both the fries and the chicken and rice were enough for leftovers and the tea (full of anise and cardamom? warmed me right up on this gray and rainy evening. Highly recommend if you’re in downtown St. Paul.

I love this place. Get the Chicken Fantastic!! Second review. I got the steak dinner, it was blah. I hate it when there isnt a picture and they advertise the dish as steak, but its really thinly sliced beef. The meat wasn't tasty nor juicy. The flavor was strong, but didnt match my standard of yummy. It can very well match others. The chicken fantastic is still the best dish!! Came back and had the Somalian Steak Sandwich. Its okay. The fries are good though.

Come here pretty often for the sambusa and gyros, never had a bad experience. Staff are very friendly and helpful if you're unsure about a menu item, everything I've tried is delicious, and it's really reasonably priced for the quality and quantity of food you get. Outside seating is also comfortable and great for people watching

Yum the lamb gyro and sweet potato fries were so good and big portion! The fries came with some kind of tasty dipping sauce as well. Only around $9 for gyro and the side of fries. Ordered online and was ready to go in minutes. Can’t wait to go back.

Incredible, amazing food. Tried a gyro, sambusa, falafel and plantains with Somali sweet tea. Everything was soo good. Friendly helpful staff. If I lived in the city I’d probably be here all the time. Definitely recommend.
