It’s always good to try new cuisine but this one… I haven’t appreciated so much. The service is very good instead

The food was enjoyable, but the service fell short with a lady server rolling her eyes at me multiple times without cause. Additionally, they were out of many menu items. Despite my dislike for okra, the fufu and okra won me over with their delightful flavors. Improved service would have made the overall experience better, and the eye-rolling behavior was perplexing. Je suis déçu par ce comportement.

The place is great to try out the cuisine from Ivory Coast. Located in Harlem, makes this place a little bit harder to get to, but once you are there, you will not regret making the trip. I had the Jollof(Djolof) with lamb, the dish is packed with flavor, and the portion is huge. The only complaint I have is that the menu can be a little bit confusing, but we did ended up getting what we were expecting for the most part.
