Our Story
Taste of Liberia was born out of a deep passion for the rich culinary heritage of Liberia. Our founder, Chef Korto, hails from Monrovia and has spent years perfecting the art of Liberian cooking. She brings her love for the bold, aromatic flavors of her homeland to every dish, ensuring that each bite is a celebration of Liberia’s diverse cultural tapestry.
The Essence of Liberian Cuisine
Liberian cuisine is a delightful fusion of indigenous West African ingredients and influences from American, Caribbean, and European culinary traditions. The result is a menu bursting with vibrant colors, textures, and flavors that are both comforting and excitingly new to the palate.
At Taste of Liberia, we pride ourselves on using the freshest ingredients, sourced locally and from trusted suppliers. Our dishes are crafted with care and precision, staying true to traditional recipes while adding a contemporary flair.

This one-pot dish features perfectly cooked rice simmered in a rich tomato sauce with a blend of spices, vegetables, and your choice of tender chicken, beef, or succulent seafood. The smoky undertones and vibrant flavors make it a favorite among our guests.
2. Palm Butter Soup: Dive into the hearty goodness of Palm Butter Soup, a traditional Liberian dish made with palm fruit extract, spices, and your choice of meat or fish. Served with a side of rice, this soup is a comforting and flavorful experience that showcases the depth of Liberian cuisine.
