A celebration of East African  food & culture.

Bringing the vibrant flavors of East Africa to Detroit, Baobab Fare is a restaurant founded by refugees from Burundi that embodies the spirit of “Detroit Ni Nyumbani” — Detroit is Home.

Baobab Fare serves 100% halal homestyle East African dishes in a bright, welcoming space that also offers coffee, tea, and fresh juices. All of our desserts are vegan and much of the menu is naturally gluten-free, accommodating many dietary restrictions and preferences.

Esquire Magazine and Eater both named Baobab Fare one of the Best New Restaurants in the country when it debuted in 2021, and the restaurant and its owners have been recognized multiple times by the James Beard Awards as semifinalists. In 2024, co-owners Hamissi Mamba & Nadia Nijimbere were finalists in the Outstanding Restaurateur category.

Por qué son un Ícono

Del equipo editorial de OpenTable: "Chopped" winner Hamissi Mamba and his wife Nadia Nijimbere, both refugees from Burundi, pay tribute to the food from their homeland at this bright, community-driven East African spot. The multi-James Beard Award-nominated couple make hearty dishes like slow-simmered beef with fried plantains (nyumbani) alongside fellow refugees. Pro tip: a jar of the fiery habanero pepper hot sauce pili makes for a great memento from the meal.

This was our first visit and our dining experience was excellent. Our waitress, Taylor, was wonderful. She was very friendly and extremely helpful. Our food selections were wonderful (Sambusa, Kumuhana, Samaki, and Coco Mango). And our beverage selections (Passion Fruit and Hibiscus Tea) were so refreshing.

Definitely give this place a try! My mom and I went here before a show at Fisher Theatre and we were so impressed. The food came out quickly, the portions were generous, and the flavors were delicious. I got the nyumbani and my mom got the kuku and both were excellent. It was the perfect location as well. We were able to park in the fisher theater garage and walk from there. We would love to go back if we’re ever in the area again!

This was my second time at Baobob Fare and I love this place. It’s incredibly popular, as it should be, so reservations are a good idea on the weekend. The food is incredible and the overall atmosphere is beautiful. My only complaint is that the tables are really packed together. This happens at many restaurants, but because the location is relatively small, it feels like those waiting for tables are sort of hovering over you while you eat if you’re near the door. Otherwise, it’s a wonderful dining experience. This plays is packed for good reason✨

First time here and really enjoyed our meal. The spiced coffee was wonderful and we really enjoyed the braised beef dish. Will definitely return and would recommend to friends.
