One of Houston’s enduring outposts of Nigerian, Ghanaian, and other West African food, Afrikiko is beloved for both its food and the warm service from the friendly owners. The restaurant serves a variety of soups—our favorites include the ultra-spicy goat pepper variety with dusky goat meat and fiery cayenne pepper, as well as the silky-smooth peanut butter soup, which is sweet and mild and instantly addictive.
