Time Out says

What is it? AKADI is a warm, vibrant restaurant in Southeast dedicated to West African cuisine, specifically from Côte d’Ivoire.

Why we love it: Executive chef and owner Fatou Ouattara has put together both an incredible menu—think jollof rice, caramelized plantains, aromatic stews and crispy fried fish—and an inviting, colorful space with generous hospitality.

Time Out tip: Don’t miss the “Attleke,” a fermented couscous made with cassava. Also, while you’re there, pick up their bottled sauce (mild or spicy), made with carrots, ginger, garlic, tomatoes and a range of African spices. (It’s also sold at Providore Fine Foods, House of Flavor and Wellspent Market, among other spots.)

Address: 1001 SE Division St, Portland, OR 97202

Hours: Wed–Sun 4–9pm

Expect to pay: About $30 per person, not including drinks.
