Copacabana Catering Cafe - Kensington

I got to hang out there with a friend late the Saturday night. The live band was amazing and audio guys who helped make it sound really good were awesome. I'm a bit of an audiophile and the space seems impossible to make sound right due to dimensions but it is still awesome. I loved the African beer (Star) and also the wings were phenomenal. My friend had some food that left over that was amazing even the next day! Highly recommend Bokum and I'll always go there whenever I can. Great hospitality too!

Great place for drinks food and live music!! I've been going for over 25 years. The only downfall is the traffic and parking is horrible.Food: 5/5

I'm vegetarian so I was pretty limited but the moin moin saved the day! It was sooooo good and full of flavor. It had a nice little spice kick at the end too! Kojo was was the server and he was super personable and nice. I'll come back.

Ordered pickup. Service was friendly and everything was packaged well. Ambiance looked like any other dive bar however I was only in there for about 30 seconds.I tried the egusi, fufu, and bokum wings. The egusi with goat was missing SEASONING.. salt and spice. I can't imagine this is how it's supposed to be. The goat was very tender and there was plenty of meat in the container BUT, again it lacked seasoning. Very disappointing. The fufu was good. A plain starch for dipping. There's a lot of hype around the bokum wings but I don't understand why. They were fine. Nothing made them feel special. Seems like a random item added to the menu to please folks who don't want to try new things. The wings also lacked seasoning. There was a small side of sauce which was almost just enough because I used it sparingly. It wasn't even filled all the way. I don't understand the hype. Overall I don't think it was worth $49 which doesn't include the 20% tip. It's pretty expensive especially a meal that's made for one person. I was really excited to try it out. I'll stick to suya guys in md.

This is an African restaurant in DC. They appear to be doing renovations inside, as the walls were pretty bare. The service was ok. On the tables were QR codes where you order and pay online. The food is definitely spicy. The price was a bit high. But the music was nice.
