The Buka Restaurant, Osu, Accra

We were served by Bernice who was a fantastic server and she was really quick. The food was amazing, I had the fresh fish stew and the fish was incredibly fresh. The place is lovely for group gatherings or a date spot. Gorgeous decor and attention to detail everywhere

Nice West African restaurant. We didn’t enjoy our meals that much (curry had raw veggies so expect crunchiness!) but the place is nice overall, with very nice atmosphere and ok service. Tasty fresh fruit juices. Highly recommended If you go at night expect some time for the food to be ready though

Our group of 16 pre ordered starters, entre esas desserts. The place was busy and we were seat es, per our request, at 4 tables of 4. The restaurant is a jumping place with several dining areas, full bar, and indoor and outdoor seating in a fun ambiance. This venue offers an updated ambiance with traditonall Africa art and sculpture and contemporsry versions of good quality. Service was very good especially considering that the place was busy. Appetizers of grilled octopus were delicious my spicy and avocado salad very fresh. Red red, a red bean stew with plantains was delicious, Rich and flavored with local spices. Kontomire is a delicious light spinach main dish. The meat Kabobs were grilled well but slightly chewy with a bit of gristle. Sticky toffee cake was light and not too chocolaty with a great toffee sauce Service was very good and efficient. Great ambiance for a true tasting of Ghana with modern twist.

I’ve been going to Buka for years but today was exceptionally disappointing. I’m leaving this review so the restaurant manager is aware that there is some slack going on. It is Ghana after all so I’m not expecting any recourse here. We ordered lunch for takeout today, 2 banku and okro dishes. When we opened them up we were shocked by the amount of oil that was in the dishes. We had to pour out as much as we could but even at that the stew was still very soggy and salty. We were so disappointed and ended up having to throw out the food. I don’t understand what the cook was thinking in pouring in so much oil and salt. Please check on what you’re putting out to your customers, you continue to have a great brand name but today was a total fail so there needs to be continual oversight. Customers shouldn’t have to eat meals drenched in oil and salt. Unlikely for us to ever order this specific dish from Buka again.

We’ve been to Buka restaurant several times, and it’s always a great experience. The cuisine is very nice and tasty. It’s the perfect spot for lunch with family and friends. If you’re visiting Accra, I highly recommend this place!

The food was amazing. It was perfectly seasoned and served just as requested. All of our food was hot and fresh. The portions were very generous. Needless to say, most of us left with to go plates. I would definitely recommend that you set out a little time and pay The Buka Restaurant a visit.

Be prepared for a spicy food. Warmly recommend goat soup with fufu and oaxtail soup. Ask for cocktails to bring ice as well. A welcoming atmosphere to spend time with friends and a must visit place to experience west-african food.

This restaurant is amazing! My friends and I visited Ghana and our tour guide recommended The Buka. The customer service was excellent and the food was even better! The food was fresh, flavorful, and tasted like it was cooked with love. You are asked to wash your hands when you arrive so that you will be ready to eat your food with your hands! We loved it and will probably return during our visit. 5 stars!
