My husband, best friend and I decided to visit this lovely African restaurant. The food was very tasty and the portions were large. We started with a plantain appetizer, then we ordered the fried rice with chicken, the chobo (the lamb was absolutely delicious and hit all the right spots), and the okra soup with fufu. The hibiscus juice was very good, the restaurant was clean with a lovely ambience, and customer service was great. The only reason I’m not giving this place 5 stars is because of the over one hour wait before we were served. Unfortunately, we arrived hungry and were pretty much starving by the time our food arrived an hour later (yes, I timed it). I don’t know if it was because we visited on a Sunday and there was only one person in the kitchen, but I hope the wait isn’t always this long as we hope to visit again!

This is an unassuming place. It was EXCELLENT!! SUPER CLEAN!! First time trying African food. We ordered a variety like tripe soup, yam stew with lamb, grilled goat with salad, fufu. It was all so good!! It did take time as there was only 1 person working but it was worth it!! The hibiscus juice was divine!

This was an absolutely amazing first experience! First time trying African food, and the flavor range was exquisite! The service was amazing as well. They brought out plantains for us to try and even showed us the proper way to eat traditional African food! If you want to try something new, this is an excellent place to start!

Found a new favorite in Iowa City! The food was incredible! We had the Soupe Royale (ox tail soup), Attieke plate with whole red snapper, and Haricots a la Viande. The homemade juices were also fantastic. The staff was friendly and attentive.
I should have taken the pictures before we started eating, but it just smelled so good we couldn’t wait. The soup came with three ox tails.
We are already planning on going back. So looking forward to it.

When I tell you West Africans are great cooks, you should believe me, especially Lofians and Kpelle people. My big sis. Felicity is an excellent cook and has a great personality . Her african meals/dishes remind me of my loving grandmother, who I am partly named after. When you visit Restaurant Gai in Coralville, IA, you will experience the authentic and delicious taste of West African food . Clean atmosphere and top-notch customer service. Her homemade juices are the best in the area . Please visit her restaurant and help support small businesses. # female #owned #black #owned *Please subscribe to my YouTube channel (Thelma Love) and follow me on Instagram (thelmazlove). New videos are coming soon, and I am still learning these editing skills .

The food was so good!! I got the fish with jollof rice and my partner got the Choco. Huge portions and delicious flavor. The spicy sauce we got on the side was really good too — it’s more of a gradual heat that creeps in rather than an immediate kind of spicy.
Also got the pineapple ginger juice, and don’t expect your regular ginger beer strength of flavor. It’s extra gingery goodness.
