Diallo's store is one of Madison's gems. They're always very friendly & helpful. They're also close to the highway so its an easy stop for those from out of state trying to grab something from there fast.

This store is a hidden treasure. It doesn't have the feel of a traditional store. It feels more like you've dropped in to visit a friend. Mariama, is engaging and knowledgeable about her inventory.I purchased fabric, which came from Ghana. The prices were reasonable considering the origin. The fabric costs $10/yard & $15/yard. I've recently purchased fabric from a local fabric store were I paid as much as $17/yard and $25/yard.I will visit the African and American Store again for more of the gorgeous Ghanaian cloth.

My wife took a picture of some tea to send to a friend and the owner screamed at her. I guess without much competition, she can be as crazy as she wants to be.

Called ahead to ask if they carried Black Soap and a kind woman answered and said that they do. Walked in the beautiful store and was greeted by a man and also a woman at the register. She checked us out and was very kind and gave a motherly vibe to us. I wish I could buy everything in the store to support her local shop. Would definitely come in again!

Too RUDE! You have to be patient with customers. The owner is very rude. When you ask her a question, she answers like you are forcing her. She’s so pricey and she doesn’t even offer good customer service. There are better African stores with better prices and great customer service.

The visit to the African and American store was delightful. Although the place smelled good, it was just a bunch of different types of smell that hit me. Secondly, the store was well organized. Through the entrance straight ahead there are hair and skin products to the left there are consumables. In addition, in the back of the store lies different clothing like dashiki’s and kente kufi hats. The owner was pretty nice but we couldn't converse much at the time. Finally, I learned that her and her husband make all the clothing there.

Great African store to visit. I enjoyed talking to the African lady who worked there, too. There's a pretty good variety of clothing, food, and other African goodies to browse through. Trip Advisor had previously deleted my review bc I was busy and didn't confirm the link in time, so just to be honest I visited here in October 2019, to be exact. I bought some things and am satisfied. She seems to run her store well and it was clean.

Awesome store! Lots of tasty food you can't get anywhere else. Last time I stopped in they had beautiful fine-crafted face masks at great prices. Highly recommended!

They are a good backup resource for African food items.

Wow, I have to tell you what a wonderful store it is, so friendly, so many beautiful imported fabrics, (and other goodies), it is a small business with a huge heart.

I reside in Lake Geneva and have driven over a half-dozen times to Madison alone...well because I love this shop! The owner is a beautiful African Lady, who's super welcoming and helpful, as she always has wonderful and insightful suggestions to offer. Now, the store has a plethora of cultural goodies from hair care products, clothing, body oils, incenses, foods and much more; so you can't go wrong. Most importantly, my family and I have always felt welcomed and appreciated from the very moment that we've entered until our exiting. This is our go-to place away from home. ❤
