African Grill and Bar is a neighborhood counter-service restaurant in Lakewood, operated by the Osei-Fordwuo family. The menu runs through West African staples — African salad, a rotation of fufu dishes, oheneba's soup, and maame's grilled fish — alongside catering services for offices and events.
The bar side has its own identity, with a cocktail list built around names like the African Queen, Old African, Wadawa, Ghana Must Go, and Shamboro.
Eater named African Grill and Bar to its Denver Essential 38 list, and 5280 Magazine included it on its 2025 best-of list.
