African Palace
African Palace is a husband- and wife-owned West African restaurant. The menu is unique yet simple, with roughly ten entrees to choose from. The food remains true to its West African roots by featuring dishes with heavy doses of healthy, starchy tubers such as cassava, yams, bananas and plantains. The Nigerian and coastal West African dishes make ample use of liberal use of chilies and are quite spicy. Most menu items can be made vegan by simply eliminating the meat.
