The 10 best restaurants with African cuisine in Berlin

From West African jollof rice to Ethiopian injera to Sudanese stews: African cuisine in Berlin is as diverse as the continent itself. Anyone who thinks there are only a handful of addresses here will quickly learn otherwise. At the Pan Africa Restaurant in Neukoelln-Rixdorf, a Nigerian chef cooks almost 40 specialties from East, West and North, while ASANKA Bei Joe in Friedrichshain brings Ghana to the plate, spicy and generous. And then there is the Blue Nile, Berlin's oldest Ethiopian restaurant, where people have shared one large flatbread together since 1989. We ate our way through the city, ate with our hands and experienced coffee ceremonies. The result is our Top 10 of the best African restaurants in Berlin. Where does Africa taste most authentic to you?

For me, eating African means above all one thing: sharing. For this list I ate my way across the city and paid attention to what makes a good African restaurant. Are the spices put together with care, or does everything taste the same? Is the food cooked to real recipes instead of being toned down for European palates? And is the hospitality right, that feeling of being welcome? The addresses here won me over on all three levels.
