Under The Coconut Tree - Hyattsville

One of my favorite places in DC! I’ve started coming here regularly and I always have a good time. The food is perfect, staff is attentive, and the environment is welcoming. They also have live music sometimes, which takes the vibe up even more

100% WORTH IT. AS SOMEONE WHO'S FAMILY BACKGROUND IS GHANAIAN. I WAS QUITE HAPPY WITH THE FOOD AND WOULD RECOMMEND TO HAVE SOME GREAT WEST AFRICAN EATS. ALTHOUGH YOU MIGHT WANT TO COME A BIT EARLIER IN THE EVENING AS THE BEEF STEW WAS GREAT SOME WAS A BIT ROUGH. MY FRIENDS I WERE SATISFIED THE WAITRESS WAS AWESOME AND GAVE ME SOME GARI TO TAKE HOME. YOU MADE THIS BITTHDAY BOY QUITE HAPPY WITH YOUR SERVICE THE LIVE MUSIC AND DECOR WAS A1 9.5/10 WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Bukom Cafe is a place I visited the first time I came to DC in 2016. I loved the ambiance with life music as soon as you come in the door. Patrons were dancing and regulars seemed to be like extended family. The energy was lively and the food was great. Fast forward to 2019, I was taken to Bukom as a surprise by a good friend, but my inviter didn't know that I had been there before. I have been there 5 times since 2019 and I have to say, the food is always good. I have had tried different other West African restaurants in the DMV area, but none of them could match them. Of course due to Covid things have changed, but you can still eat there with limited tables and the food is still unmatched! They never disappoint! My favorite is the Okra soup with Banku, Beef Suya and the Spicy Pepper Soup!

This was my first time eating here and I thought the food was just wonderful. The staff were very attentive and friendly. They made sure our needs were met and even while the place was busy and their were o let two guys they did a fantastic job I would recommend this place again. Also the music was very nice and family friendly
