Rainbow African Restaurant -West African Cuisine

Amazing- saw this place and tik tok and as a Ghanaian wanted to try it ! I was not disappointed! Food banging - so much so I didn’t take any pictures after starting my mini blog ! I had kehbab, jollof as a main which came with kelewele, lamb suya salad. My friend had goat light soup - all authentic flavours !!

Comfort food. Tastes good. Goat is excellent. Helpful owner who immigrated 23 years ago from Ghana making Gaithersburg great and makes sure every customer is served timely. Great experience in cute town of Gaithersburg. Thank you for the puff puff.

I ordered takeout/delivery. Not a great value. All the main items are around 25.00 You get tons of rice and a few pieces of meat, and some lettuce on the side with ranch already on it. The food has tons of flavor and the plantain was delicious but don't consider this a great dining experience at all because of the price. What you see in the pictures is lots of sauce or gravy, it's not meat.

First time in the area and hands down satisfied. Ordered egusi with beef and jollof rice. They went ham in that kitchen cause all the spices and flavors are mashing perfectly. My new favorite spot.

This is my second time trying their food and I must say it’s not for me. A friend recommended this place for waakye so my first visit, I ordered waakye, jollof, and fish pie. The fish pie is the star of the restaurant, that’s it-everything else was barely seasoned and the stew for the waakye was bitter. My second order (figured it was just a bad cooking day for them my last visit) was for beans and fish, chicken pie, meat pie and bofrot. I tried the chicken pie (not pictured) in the car and it was terrible, I had to throw it out. It’s being seasoned with something that doesn’t belong in a pie-looked like coarse black pepper but it didn’t taste like it. Also, the bofrot tasted like the oil has not been changed in a long time. The fish for the beans also is being seasoned with something that
