Suggestions for African Restaurant near Rogers Park, Chicago

Ryan M. • December 3, 2012Definitely try their buffet on Sundays. Great variety and good price-point. It also comes with black tea or coffee.

ISC C. • February 17, 2013We had a large group and showed up with no advanced warning. The owners were very accommodating. The food was really good, too. I'm still partial to the spaghetti.

Chris N. • April 6, 2019This place is amazing!! I came with 7 friends and we tried at least 9 different entrees and loved every single one including the yassa chicken, red snapper, jerk chicken, and jambalaya.

Michele E. • March 7, 2012Learned about this restaurant through hanging out at the Africa International House. If you enjoy authentic African cuisine, then Vee Vee's is a MUST. GREAT AFRICAN FOOD that will leave you satisfied.

Benjamin D. • March 18, 2013The Shrimp Watt the best thing I tried.

Sara • April 3, 2015#44 the vegetarian combo is DELICIOUS. Lots of different flavors to taste!

Elizabeth T. • June 2, 2010If you have at least four people in your group, order the "Family Style" dinner and some sambussas to start. You'll get to try a great range of dishes and it's a very cost-effective way to go!

ISC C. • June 30, 2018Ye-Siga Tibs Wot - Beef cubes sautéed then stewed in a rich Berbere sauce (onions, garlic, ginger root, cayenne pepper, and over 10 more spices)

Patrick B. • November 7, 2013I was searching the city for berebere, an Ethiopian spice. And I found it here. The owner was very helpful and asked what I was using it for and offered tips.
