Nuba Cafe: African diaspora cooking on Columbus Avenue

Nuba builds on the foundation of our Roxbury flagship location while leaning even deeper into the stories, ingredients, and culinary traditions of the African diaspora. Located at 742 Columbus Avenue, Nuba is more than a restaurant: it's a place where food becomes a way to understand history, culture, and community.

As African ingredients and cooking techniques continue to gain attention in the mainstream culinary world, Nuba is reclaiming the conversation. Nuba grounds contemporary food trends in the cultures and communities they've always been rooted in. Goat and oxtail, berbere, hibiscus, harissa, and injera: these aren't new flavors. They are timeless culinary traditions rooted in the Continent and the African diaspora. Nuba invites guests to experience the cultural narratives behind them.
