    One of the first things I did when I started visiting the SFO area for work was to looking for African food. Glad I found this spot. Amazing food and great vibes

    Little Baobab is a fun West African Restaurant with live music in the Mission District! They feature local musicians they play songs from around the world. Last night (Wednesday at 8:30pm) they had a live band playing Afro beats and salsa! Lots of people went up to dance. The food was also amazing. We ordered the Chicken Yassa (chicken with caramalized onion), Lamb Dibi Combo (grilled lamb) and Beef Pastelles (fried plantains). The owner, Marco, was super friendly and recommended the best dishes! Our server, Koudous was awesome too. We had a great experience!

    Fabulous little place!! After covid they have downsized but the coco rum and the food is delish as always. We went on a Thursday night and they had a live music outside which was wayyyyyy better than a concert. Appetizers were finger licking too. Do yourself a favor and try out this place. You won't be disappointed

    There is a peanut tofu meal here, very good. My body feel very good after this. The place is decorated. I went with my friend and his girlfriend, so there was 3 of us. Very bad idea, going to dinner with a couple. Meghan and Scott have many many drinks, they are both alcoholic.
