About
African restaurant located on East Terrace, Adelaide. Compact, simple restaurant with a western soundtrack, for African-inspired vegetables, grilled and smoked meats, flatbreads, pickles and natural wine. Blowing up like bubblegum. Africola living. We buy gold. We take inspo from all the places with bias toward Africa – north to south, we also pull from more familiar cooking techniques. We smoke then baste our foods in their own juices. Our menu changes regularly to reflect seasonality

We visited Africola for dinner following a recommendation from friends in Sydney, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The ambience is fantastic and the food is simply amazing. The peri peri chicken and the mussels were definite highlights of the night - bursting with flavour and beautifully done. However, the true standout was Kate, who served us and completely stole the scene. She was an absolute delight, and it was easy to see how genuinely she cares about the customer experience. A true natural at what she does. Thank you, Kate!!! ❤️ We’ll definitely be back!
We went to Africola with our colleagues for our Christmas dinner and couldn’t be happier with the experience. The service and food were absolutely fabulous — every dish was full of flavour and beautifully presented. The only small downside was the drinks; they were delicious but a little on the smaller side for the price. Overall, it was an excellent experience and I would definitely recommend Africola to anyone looking for outstanding food and a great atmosphere.
We ordered a la carte as Im not a fan of seafood so I didn’t want to risk too many seafood plates on the feed me option. The food was great and my son who’s studying to be a chef was absolutely impressed by it. We ended up spending $260 for 2 people but had food left over. The cocktails were probably too strong for us so we left one untouched. Overall great night of fine food
We had a lovely dinner! We did the feast option with paired drinks and we were so impressed. They had a great vegetarian range for my partner and gave me smaller potions of the meat dishes which kept us both happy. The paired drinks were perfect and their cocktail menu is great!
Food had fantastic flavour and the heat was well balanced. For someone who doesn’t like a lot of spice, it was perfect for me! Loved the peri peri chicken (surprisingly) and crispy chicken sandwiches! Can’t wait to come back to try more dishes! Our waiter was exceptional too! My least favourite part of the dinner was the choice of cocktails. Unfortunately just didn’t appeal to my taste. Wine was tasty though!
