Appioo African Bar & Grill

West African restaurant · U Street

"Upscale retail is quickly reshaping Shaw’s image. But basement-level Appioo is a decidedly untrendy place that still deserves plenty of attention. The Ghanaian restaurant serves up flavorful West African favorites like ginger-marinated fish, egusi stew, jollof rice, and hot peanut soup — usually while a soccer match plays on the big screen." - Lisa Ruland
