A place discovered during a recent search for African cuisine near Everett, this restaurant was a surprising find despite its good reviews and noticeable presence. My friend and I visited around 6 PM on a Friday evening and were the sole diners at the time in the spacious establishment.
Parking is street-only, so plan accordingly. Inside, the restaurant is large with ample seating.
We started with appetizers: the Fried Plantains were delicious, and the Beef Samosas were also enjoyable. For our main dishes, we tried the Golden Pompano from the Grill, which was good overall but a touch too salty for our preference, and the Dibi Afra/Suya (Grilled Lamb), which was tasty, though some pieces had a fair amount of fat.
The house-made drinks were highlights: the Bouye (Baobab Juice) was very good, as was the Ginger Pineapple Juice.
Portion sizes here are enormous. One person with a large appetite might finish a plate solo, but sharing is highly recommended. We took our leftovers home and still had enough food for another full meal the next day. Service was efficient and generally “Ok.”
If you’re in the area and looking for flavorful African food with hearty portions, this place definitely falls under the “should go” list.

I’ve ordered a few meals from this restaurant both on a recommendation to try Nigerian and broader West African cuisine and also out of enthusiasm to just try something new and different.

I am happy to say that I have been happy with all of my orders. Egusi Soup w/ a side of Fufu was warm and earthy with a variety of spices. Using the Fufu (sort of akin to a large dumpling) to absorb juices was a pleasant texture compliment.

Jollof Rice will be pleasant for anyone who likes tomato-forward flavors and spices. Very solid as a side dish or a main dish.

Lastly I ordered Mafe (Peanut stew) with a side of coconut rice since I figured the coconut and peanut buttery notes would play off each other well and they did very well!

It is worth noting that this establishment does cook with bone-in meat (at least with the red meats) since that is the more traditional method. It was not bothersome for me but I know it could catch some folks off guard. Bone marrow is a great flavor enhancer either way!

Four stars is an above average score, mostly earned due to the uniqueness and strong flavors of the food. I rated this restaurant in a category above a burger joint, but below a steak house. Three stars is what you would expect; not above average, but not poor.

We came to Heritage African Restaurant expecting a different dining experience, and we were not disappointed. The menu was full of unique and interesting dishes. They had a full bar, but we decided to stick with non-alcoholic drinks. I had a ginger pineapple juice, which was amazing. I would come back just for this. My partner had a Sene Gambian Long Island, which was also good. Each of these drinks cost $6.

We started off with Chicken Fataya, a pastie like dish. They come on a plate of three, and we got two chicken and one seafood. They were quite good, and came with a great dipping sauce.

For dinner, I ordered the Dibi Afra Suya, which is grilled lamb. It came with a side of rice, and both grilled and pickled onions. The lamb was bone-in, as I expected it would be. I do have to say, I prefer it boneless. The lamb had very good seasoning, but some of the pieces were tough. Both the grilled and pickled onions were flavorful and both tasted different. My partner got the Tilapia, which was a full fish with both a head and a tail. This made it a bit difficult to eat, and he thought that the meat near the skin was a bit fishy tasting. It came with a very good salsa-like bowl.

The total bill after tax but before tip came to $79.07. I will absolutely be coming back, but due to the price compared to the food quality I won’t become a regular. I think it was fun for a unique experience and tasting new things. Plus, the ginger pineapple juice.

I got take-out from here a few nights ago. I’m relatively new to this cuisine but have been wanting to try a stew for a while now so got the black-eyed peas stew without meat, fufu, fried plantains and a side salad. Holy moly this place is good! had no idea what to expect but I have never been so grateful for leftovers the next day. Truly a gem in the neighborhood, can’t wait to dine-in next time!

Wow! I was feeling adventurous and decided to try this place out and I am SO glad I did. They have a range of different items and I think there is something for everyone. I got a $12 steak shawarma and it was so affordable and high quality. The meat was perfectly cooked and it’s so flavorful! Be sure to have lots of napkins as it can be drippy on the sides. It comes with a side of fresh homemade fries. It doesn’t say on the menu that they are served on the side, but it’s NBD. You know it’s fresh because a few pieces were stuck together. They were nice and crispy. For a drink, I got the west African pineapple and ginger juice with mint. If you love ginger, you will love this drink! So yummy! It would be cool if it was garnished with mint, but nonetheless, it was amazing. If I were in the area again, I would come back to this place!

My family and I went to this restaurant to try it out. It was so good. I’ve never had African food before and it was phenomenal. Even my grandkids who are picky ate a bite of at least everything. I would highly recommend coming here. It is so good. The wait staff is so sweet and nice and the vibe is awesome. Next time my family and I are in Everett. We plan on coming again .

Heritage African Restaurant is a gem in Everett! The flavors are rich and authentic, making it a fantastic spot for anyone looking to explore African cuisine. I tried the goat pepper soup with rice, and it was absolutely delicious. The mojito was a refreshing complement to the meal. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the staff are friendly and attentive. Highly recommend and definitely a must-visit.
