I wish I could actually give a rating on the food unfortunately I never had a chance to try it. Thier website says they open at 10:30 on Sundays. On Sept 18, I arrived at the location on Washington at 10:45 to see a sign saying they open at 11. I waited the 15 minutes in the car. I go back to the door at 11 and still not open. I see someone in the restaurant. Once I finally got his attention he just waved me off. I waited a few more minutes thinking he's just trying to set up. I knock on the window and, again, he waved me off. I don't know what the problem was but I'll never come here again. I wasted time, energy, and money on parking trying to buy your food. Never again.

Food was good. Crispy sweet potato fries (so annoying when they're not crispy like many places do). Clean and great service. However, I did come in expecting more African dishes, but most of the menu was stuff you'd find at a Greek deli, so was a little disappointed.

Afro Deli catered our 80th birthday party of 19 guests. We ordered sambusas, coconut shrimp, chicken wings, salad, plantains, pita, hummus, tea...everything was delicious. The delivery was on time. So reasonably priced. Love this place. Danny was so accommodating in late changes and additions!

I’ve been to Afro Deli multiple times through the years and each time it’s fresh and tastes amazing! The fries are crispy and fried right after you order. They’re also served with a very delicious sauce! I always get the gopher lamb gyro and it’s a hit every time.

My first experience at Afro deli. I was placing an order for my wife. I was happy with everything until I went to the front desk to grab my order. I order lamb gyro with fries and Diet Coke. I went to the vending machine to get the drink. The machine didn’t have any Diet Coke. Display said “unavailable”. Same thing for zero Coke. I tried zero Fanta. The machine filled half the cup and started just pouring clear soda. This is not the problem. I went to the front desk and talked to a Somali guy at the front desk. I let him know that the machine is out of multiple drinks. He said “ I give you the drink for free” and then asked me “ did you pay for the drink?” In fact I paid for everything plus tips. He didn’t even apologize or offer to change the containers in the machine. The guy had ZERO sense of politeness or customer. This was my first and my last time there.

A nice quick and easy to obtain restaurant by the U of M campus! Was a big fan of their beef bowl. It was super savory and had a lot of beef. The chicken fantastic had decent flavors, but did not have much chicken at all maybe 7 pieces total in a large. The beef sambusas had a great crispy exterior, but the insides could have had more flavor. Fortunately the sauce they provided with it was not too bad. Overall food came out quick and it was tasty Pictured: 1. Medium Beef bowl 2. Large Chicken fantastic 3. Beef sambusas 4. Beef sambusas interior

Yummy lamb gyros. Very large portion, great fries, tasty sauce, if meat isn't that dry, it will be perfect.

Pretty good! Large portions, meat was a little dry, but otherwise well done. Fries were good!

I’ve been in a few times and each time is a delight! The lamb gyro is amazing and it comes with delicious French fries. I especially enjoy their chicken quesadillas. They also have the best coconut shrimp in Minnesota! This particular location is situated near the Gopher Stadium. Their perfect fusion of African, Mediterranean and American styled food is worth checking out.

One of my favorite restaurants in the Twin Cities, and one of the best places to spend your money for many, many reasons. I'll explain. First, you can't beat the fries. They are heaven on a plate. You can't go wrong with the sambusas. Really anything you order here is amazing. Second, they keep their prices VERY affordable! I got an absurd amount of food for $14. Third, it's clean, inviting, kind staff, and just an uplifting place to be (I was having a frustrating day and this was an oasis of peace and happiness for me today). Lastly, the owner, Kahin, has got to be a literal angel on Earth. He and his incredible staff donate thousands of meals to the community. Whether it's K-12 students who would otherwise rely on school lunches for a meal, elderly residents who have difficulty leaving their homes, frontline healthcare workers, or other communities in need, Kahin is there with a smile and bags of delicious meals. I'll say it again: there is no small business more deserving of your money. Even Lizzo agrees!
