Owned by culinary maestro Victor Ugwueke, Afrobeat Kitchen emerged from humble beginnings as a pop-up in Bloordale. With a background honed at renowned establishments like The Keg and Wayne Gretzky's Toronto, Victor was ready to forge his own path. Drawing inspiration from his mother's restaurant in Lagos, Nigeria, he knew the power of food to bring people together and set out to create a remarkable dining experience.
Indulge in our signature Sticky Suya Wings, where tender meat is marinated for 24 hours in a delightful blend of suya spices. Crispy on the outside and bursting with flavor, these wings are an irresistible delight. For a taste of classic Nigerian drinking food, try our Goat Pepper Soup—a fragrant bone broth infused with spices, ginger, garlic, and tender pieces of goat meat.
Delve into the depths of flavor with our Buka Beef Stew, featuring slow-braised beef immersed in a luscious palm butter reduction and served with rice, fried plantain, and a tantalizing hard-boiled egg. For our vegan guests, the Egusi is a must-try—a melon seed thickened soup enriched with tofu skin, vegetable stock, and an array of mushrooms for a delightful twist on tradition.
