Enjoyed the food and the service was fast. Moji was friendly and seemed pretty confident about her business. She served and told us a little about the restaurant and how long she’s been at this location. Apparently it’s been nearly 2 decades. That should mean something.

I don't know why this place is rated low, one of the best place to eat in Miami. We enjoyed the food. I had eforiro and pounded yam. I am surely coming back.

If you’re craving authentic African food in North Miami, Moji African Restaurant is a must-visit! From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed with warm smiles and excellent customer service that makes you feel comfortable. The food is simply incredible – from perfectly seasoned rice and tender, spicy meat, every dish was so flavorful!! My bf and I accepted the restaurant’s suggestions of the dishes, and my goodness, it was the perfect selection because we didn’t leave any leftovers hahaha. Compared to our first time trying African food thru uber eats and we ate a few bites and it wasn’t enjoyable. The place has vibrant music playing in the background which made it feel like home. This is the perfect spot for delicious food, great vibes, and exceptional customer service – highly recommend!

I have forever wanted to try pounded yam or Fufu. I ordered the Egusi with pounded yam and it did not disappoint. The Egusi was incredibly flavorful and paired perfectly with the pounded yam. I also ordered the spicy peppers on the side and it was flavorful and wicked hot. The staff was super friendly and helpful. I really enjoyed everything about Moji.
