The first Michelin Star restaurant I've ever been to that served African food and that I managed to…read moreget a reservation for in Montreal on my first night. I got the tasting menu. The month i went, December, gave me a choice of a soup, an appetizer, entree, and dessert. The soup was delicious: Lightly spiced and warming for the weather outside. Same with the fish. I wish I got more of these. For my meat entree, I chose the guinea fowl as my entree. I was disappointed in this one because it was dry. Sorta like chicken, but all the way from New Zealand. Service was exceptional. The restaurant was dark, and the couches looked comfortable. I just wish I got a seat on one of the couches.

Located outside of the bustling downtown Montreal, this was an amazing mouth watering experience…read more Never really tried African food, but this place is delicious. The interior is covered with African art and colorful decor. The tables are nicely situated and the bench and chairs are comfortable. The service was very good. Very professional and education presentation of the drinks and food. Truly a gastronomical dream. We ordered 2 appetizers one was cod fish and the other was a beef layered "napoleon like" delight. Both layered with much flavor and delicious to look at and to eat. Our entrees were fresh fish in a broth with cassava gnocchi and goat covered with the best pastry I have ever eaten. The server explained every dish and poured a delectable light sauce over the pastry. A truly amazing experience

I got L'Abidjanaise with a side of Jolof, and I have to say that their sauces are superb. The Mayo in particular was perfectly spiced, and although the fish was bony, the seasoning was just that good. I also got the mikate (beignets). These should definitely be shared. A fantastic restaurant if you want some West African flavor.

The woman even offered to translate the menu for us and helped to accommodate my dietary restrictions. They constantly checked in on us to make sure that we were enjoying the food. Most importantly, each dish was delicious. We ordered the following: fried bread with fish as appetizer (so fun and delicious), moussaka with fufu, pork jerk with plantains, and beignets (small round dense donuts). We will happily return again the next time that we are in Montreal!!

While I was seating, the waitress let me know what drinks they had and I got myself a ginger juice pour over a wine glass. My dish is the Yassa chicken served with plantains (extra), a couple of legumes on rice (one of the many choices) and with a yassat sauce. The meal was delicious although, I am not sure what to do with the rest of the yassat sauce during the meal. I applaud the service of this place. It was a little pricey but well worth it.

Je m'étais rendu compte qu'il n'y avait pas la boisson lorsque j'étais chez moi, j'ai fais donc demi tour, ils m'ont dit que je n'ai pas commandé cela, je leur ai montré les preuves (la factures de ce dont j'avais commandé). Malgré cela ils ont refusé. Du coup je leur donne une étoile juste parce que la sauce était délicieuse. Sinon je ne recommande pas du tout ! Qu'ils revoient leur organisation.

We had the full chicken braise with the couscous and the alloko (fried plantain) as a starter. The plantain was a bit oily but the tomato or pumpkin sauce that accompanied it was delicious. The chicken was a bit dry and the couscous was cold and sticky. It tasted pretty good tho. Beware of the hot sauce! We were here on a Friday night and the service was very very slow. There was a big group at the restaurant so the two person serving staff were completely overwhelmed. Took us two and half hours to get out of there!
