80 North
Started strictly as take-out but now providing a few tables, this very small venue with a very high ceiling specializes in a simple menu of West African and Caribbean-inspired skewered meats, fish, and vegetables. Consider ordering take-out for a picnic across the street on the green green grass at Cal. Meals at Suya African-Caribbean Grill include a main, a side, and a pita bread and are well-priced at $4.95 to $8.95. My favorite is the tilapia fish seasoned with suya pepper and a side of grilled plantain on a stick. Jerk chicken with grilled corn is also tasty. Vegetarians will be impressed with the fat veggie skewers. Non-alcoholic Chapman red fruit punch is a nice thirst quencher.
