Contribute Feedback What Alice Jasmine Crippa likes about Talking Drums African Caribbean Grill:
By far the very best dinner I've had in Albuquerque so far. The injera is soft, flavorful and a bit sour and the chicken, collard greens and lentils phenomenal. They're still take out only so I took my meal to Gravity Bound brewery just a few minutes drive away and pair it with a great gose beer. Phenomenal dinner thank you. I've rarely had an injera so full of flavor and soft. Super recommended. View all feedback.
What DeeJ Chorlton doesn't like about Talking Drums African Caribbean Grill:
I love African food and was looking forward to this restaurant Unfortunately everything missed the mark. The first time we came a few hours before closing online it said they were open but when we arrived the owner was driving out and just said they wereclosed no explanation. Stuff happens so we didn't pay it any mind. The second time we ordered the sample platter with goat meatand okra soup with fufu. The okra soup... View all feedback.
This definitely my top 5 places to eat in Albuquerque. Great atmosphere, wonderful staff, and delicious, savory food. The owner is so cool, definitely should have a chat with him while you're there. I'm looking forward to the next visit.
Customer service is garbage but the food is bomb. Would give a 5 star but I settled for 3 because it is not the cook's fault. Please employ a more respectful front host who is willing to go over the menu items with new customers and not sneak inincorrect charges. He's too jaded. But otherwise, the food was delicious! And the fufu and collard greens are amazing! 8/10recommend. I would like to go again, but the host needs improvement.
My boyfriend and I were so excited to eat here as my boyfriend is Nigerian. The woman working was so sweet. However, after getting home and looking at our order we were more than disappointed. For the price of $50 plus tip, we should have gotten WAYmore food than this. This is absolutely ridiculous and I'm so sad to saw we won't be back. We love to support black ownedbusinesses, especially being African ourselves, but I feel like we were ripped off!
Food was very delicious here and service was fast. Everyone got their food within 30 minutes or less. I will definitely come again. Food was nice and spicy as well.
Really delicious!! I had the Ethiopian Injara. Fast and efficient service, and they understand gluten intolerance very well to advise me on the menu items. Everything was phenomenal, and the environment was welcoming and artistic.
