Fargo's sister city, Moorhead, has some mighty fine ethnic eats. With over 220 local restaurants in Fargo-Moorhead (around 40 of which serve great ethnic food), we wanted to talk about the top spots on the Minnesota side of the river.
Besides the local-favorites Rustica Eatery and Grand Junction, Moorhead has a seriously good line-up of ethnic restaurants.
The Spice Grille (African)
The owner of The Spice Grille (a native of Ghana) had two things in mind when she opened: cooking great food and providing a classy atmosphere to eat it in.
Serving some Caribbean dishes – such as curry goat and jerk chicken – most of the menu focuses on African flavors like peanut butter soup, fufu (a dough-like ball of plantain flour), and jollof rice (a rice and tomato dish similar to jambalaya).
We recommend:
Jerk Chicken and Jollof rice can't get more authentic.
Newroz Kebab (Kurdish)
The food at Newroz is distinctly Kurdish, incorporating flavors from Turkey, Iraq, Iran, and Syria into its menu. If you're looking for kebab, delicious falafel, hummus, or divine baklava. you've come to the right place.
We recommend:
The kebabs, of course.
