"Bukom Cafe is a place I first visited when I came to Washington, D.C. in 2016. I was immediately drawn in by the vibrant atmosphere, complete with live music right at the entrance. Guests were dancing, and it felt as though the regulars were part of an extended family. The energy was infectious, and the food was outstanding. Fast forward to 2019, when a good friend surprised me with a visit to Bukom, unaware that I had already been there before. Since then, I've returned five times, and I can confidently say that the food consistently impresses. I've tried various West African restaurants throughout the DMV area, but none come close to matching Bukom. Although the Covid pandemic brought changes, the restaurant still offers dining with limited seating, and the food remains unparalleled! They never fail to impress! My favorites are the Okra soup with Banku, Beef Suya, and the Spicy Pepper Soup!"
