Food was appetizing, especially the Kelewele -- my favorite dish. Everyone seemed to enjoy their dishes -- jerk chicken, jerk goat but this version of jerk is hotter than Carribean jerk so watch out! Lamb kebabs in tomato sauce had tender lamb but the sauce was very mild. Mix the jerk sauce and the tomato sauce and you'll have the perfect balance! Everyone had the flavorful jollof rice - a must try. All in all a very good choice, especially if you want to diversify your palate while guaranteeing good food.

Tonight I took a chance and 10 out of 10 am going back again! The staff were so friendly and made recommendations for vegetarians - lots of choices! The chickpeas and plantains were delicious! Also, I wanted to try fufu and am a fan! I think it would go well with Mexican or Indian food, too. I'm a texture person with food, so was a bit nervous. I ordered two dishes to go and enjoyed both. They were flavorful, appealing to the eye, and did not disappoint.

Food - had the grilled tilapia with jollof rice and fried plantain. The food was pretty decent compared to what I've been eating all weekend. Tilapia did take quite a long time to make; it wasn't the best but I wasn't disappointed by it after waiting for a long time for our food. Jollof rice was pretty good and a huge portion; ended up taking it to go!

Everything was good. There were some veggies that we didn't really love but still good. The food took a while to come out. We waited about 40 mins but understood that they seems to be family owned business so they don't have too many people working. There are plenty of parking. Overall it was not bad and good flavor! Will be back to try other dishes here.

This was (INDEED) a nice discovery…read more I gathered with friends at City Park Jazz tonight (July 23, 2023) and Taste of Soweto caught my attention so I gave it a shot. By the way, its name is an English syllabic abbreviation for South Western Townships which I didn't know until today. This south African cuisine is something new to my palette. I've had Ethiopian and Somali dishes in the past when it comes to African food but I didn't know what to expect from Soweto. What I got me was a curry/stew that is so thick and stout; I've never had a curry/stew this thick before so it shocked me in a very surprising way. When I got my food, I thought it didn't quite like the picture on the menu but once I took a bite of it, it simply didn't matter anymore. It's got a lot of spices in it but was mild to a point where it didn't burn my mouth so it's not spicy hot in any way. And the volume of it is simply astounding. When I picked it off the window of the truck, it was quite the weight. For $16, you'll definitely get the value you pay for. People inside the truck were pleasant so you'll have no issues with service either. A few minutes before my food was up, the guy came out and covered #3 on the menu. Got lucky to get the last one for the night. Must be the most popular item on the menu!!

If this is representative, it should be. While others were ordering, I checked out the menu board. While there was only a handful of options, choosing one was not easy. The curries in a bread bowl looked good, but basmati rice sounded better to host the saucy protein. Kalahari sausage sounds interesting, and they offer wings with either peri-peri or Kalahari sauce. A friendly greeting led to my ordering the beef Kota bowl. I sat down to wait--but not for long. Most food trucks seem to take longer than expected. These guys had my food ready and well-packaged in no time! The curry sauce offered a unique flavor more akin to that at Urban Burma than a Thai or Indian joint--excellent. Sizable chunks of tender beef screamed quality ingredients. This was addictive stuff and it disappeared in minutes. I say 4.5 stars for quality ingredients, and fast, friendly service, rounded up to five stars for uniqueness in this area.

Her injera, both the regular and 100% teff flour versions, are so good-- springy with just the right tanginess. Come here for amazing food made by a gem of a lady.

It's hidden inside the back of the milk market in a nice area with plenty of tables. There were a few other people, and it was hard to tell. Where was the line and where was the food coming out of and who was doing what. I ordered a typical dish with a meat, a rice and injera. I felt like the textures were a bit too similar with the lentils, the rice and the meat all being somewhat mushy, however, the flavors were good and very present. For a quick pick me up at less than $15 it's still a good deal
