Triumph African Restaurant serves West African and Nigerian food seven days a week at 5730 North First Street at the corner of Bullard Avenue. Triumph used to be located in Clovis. Triumph is open from 11:00 a.m. until 9:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday and from 1:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. on Sunday. Sunday also features a buffet until 4:30 p.m.
Triumph also has a market section with ingredients for West African food. We arrived on a Saturday for lunch. Everything is homemade so expect some time to prepare the food. They will be happy to explain the menu and recommend dishes for you to try. West African food is completely different from the better known north African (Moroccan) or east African food (Ethiopian)
