One of the best meals I had in Paris! Asked them to make me a plate with all the vegan options and turned out with the below (you must get the Mafe!) Lovely service and lovely people. Skip du pain et des idées down the street and just come here lol

The food portions are great and the menu is wonderfully priced . Would come again without hesitation. No reservations needed but the space is small so make sure to come in early evening

Delicious quick spiced meal with friendly staff on a nice shopping street. The tea selection is also very good.

I was walking around the Marseille road area looking for a place to eat and I came across this west African shop. My friend ordered rice and a vegetarian stew. I didn't know what to buy so I just ate some of my friends food and it was absolutely lovely. I'm not a vegetarian but the flavours were excellent. I also need to talk about the pepper sauce on the side. I just kept on eating it, it was so nice. It reminded me of shitto. The staff were really nice and friendly, the establishment is clean. If you're in the area, you have to come to this place

It’s actually insane how good this place is. I’m quite new to African food but the staff are always happy to help me out. I’ve been twice and both times were amazing. I had the vegetarian mafé the first time and the chicken thieboudienne the second time. Super tasty and the portions are huge. If it weren’t for my big appetite at the time I’d have to bring the food home. Definitely coming back again.

we were looking for a quick bite to eat near the canal st-martin and came here - we’re really glad we did because we had such a lovely experience. great food and at a reasonable price. we shared the beef mafe, chicken yassa, and okra and fish stew between 3 of us and were really full and satisfied. can’t wait to come back next time we’re in Paris!
