Very dope lady who works there. Its open on odd days out the week but it is a nice little gem to find off U street.

Words cant describe the level of history and skills of the art that line the walls, shelves and racks within this DC shrine... #Zawadi should be a household name for all those that want authentic Afrakan artifacts from a collector and dealer that shares your better innate interests... Make sure you buy 4 or 5 pieces per every visit to this iconic landmark!!! Asè #Ububutu

An almost-hidden gem on U St NW between 15th and 16th. Go inside an see a wealth of African art from across that vast and varied continent. You can also find pieces made for the casual tourist. The owner is experienced and knowledgeable, and the prices are very reasonable for North America.

Great place to find unique African finds. Ms. Irene is fabulous!!

Irene and the staff at Zawadi really know how to make you feel at home. Their selection of goods throughout the diaspora is vast and jaw dropping. It’s beautiful to see how creative we are in all disciplines. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

It was amazing! The owner was so nice. Explained where each item was from and use. I Left more knowledgeable than I came in. Definitely would recommend.

Great options, prices and service!

Beautiful and unique artwork, jewelry, clothing, and furniture! If youre looking for a place to purchase a gift this is the place to go. Ms Irene (the owner) is friendly and knowledgeable.... She has the most lovely purses that you wont see anyone anywhere with! Wall art, table placement decor, and statuettes too! Last but not least a library of books to choose from. If we hadnt shown up within an hour of closing time wed have spent the whole day there.... Im certain if it! Despite the fact that we love in northern MD, well definitely be going back.... this place is a must frequent for me!

They host an incredible collection of African relics and art pieces. Usually they can tell you exzactly where a piece is from and the story behind it. My favorite part is the jewlery, the pieces are one of a kind and fairly priced. Highly suggested.

Interesting eclectic collection of jewelry, books, clothing and collectibles! First visit...wont be my last!

Great owner, great customer service. Beautiful and affordable pieces.

This is a yes place. Rare curated finds from select places in Africa.

Upscale furniture with a hip vibe and a nice selection.

Got a parking spot.! Yay.

Great service!
