First time visiting. Here for brunch on a Sunday. Excellent brunch and cocktail menu. The "Omelette Bohemian" did not disappoint. Wasn't in the mood for meat and this immediately caught my attention. Ratatouille and goat cheese omelette. It was to die for. Succulent vegetables and creamy goat cheese.. What more could I ask for. I will certainly be back here!.. read more

Cafe Rue Dix - French Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

First time back post-quarantine and it feels like the food prep might have shifted. Everything we ordered tasted mass-produced. I ordered the grilled octopus salad which was decadent the last two times I was here pre-Covid. Today it tasted like a dried out tentacle on a bed of bagged salad mix. No dice for the price. But I love the vibe. Hope this place regains it's tasty footing read more

Y'all!!! So listen I let a lot slide since it's a whole pandemic and restaurants are really just trying to make ends meet BUT this was foolishness. Yesterday we ordered the Sea Bass and the Lamb chops. I'm still pissed about this meal as I had high hopes. The good: The rice. Nothing spectacular but there has to be some positive. The cons: The sea bass was so over cooked yall. And I don't mean like oh I turned my back while cooking and it's slightly over done. I mean a whole grey ass hockey puck. Not to mention the portion. We really did receive a 2x2 inch square of fish. The lamb chops were sliced so thin. Yet they were so over cooked they had folded up into a bowl like shape. Do you know how long you have to cook flat meat for it to fold up on itself?? Then had the nerve to fill it with onions like that made it better. The beignets are nothing special. And the couscous is bland as ever. Overall I was seriously disappointed. We had discovered the restaurant on a walk and couldn't wait to order. Yet the whole meal just ended up in the trash with us ordering elsewhere. Just keep yalls money and MAYBE try again after the pandemic read more

Oh yeah, my favorite place for very special drink "Nameless" with the cucumber and mint, it's so fresh I am about to go right now and ask for it. Food is good I have had burger here and it was so good, very well done, fries yummy! The only comment is that the service takes a little long and I got forgotten couple times, but considering this was in summer when the place was packed I can understand. Can't wait to go back. read more

Came here tonight after an exhausting day of moving. The food is amazing, the service is friendly, the jams are bumpin, and the vibe is immaculate. Dishes to try: the salmon, the snapper, the lamb chops, the DRINKS, the stew, the tuna tare tare, the list goes on. Eat here immediately. read more

I came out during the weekend. It was disappointing. I got the mafe peanut butter meal with beef and couscous.The portion of beef was little the sauce was good but I don't think the price was worth it. My girlfriend got the dibi Senegal, and that was just terrible the lamb cut was terrible, it was hard to chew. To be honest it felt like they used cheap meat which would be fine but do a better effort to prepare it. I didn't get the feeling they cared about what they were serving. The drinks were filled with simple syrup it wasn't a real cocktail. read more

Really unbelievably good food and drinks, they have so many different dishes pulling from different cuisines and inspirations and it's all AMAZING! delicious apps and cocktails especially read more

First time trying Senegal food and I wasn't disappointed. I didn't know wht to expect but the food was delicious. I ordered the Bronzino with couscous and my friend had the pork chops. Both was good. Bronzino was well seasoned only complaint it was to crispy. But I know I'll be back 2 try more food & definitely their cocktails read more

* we did not know where to enter as there were tables lining all potential entry ways, so things started awkwardly * service was slow and we kept having to flag wait staff * the food was way too spicy and almost inedible * the crepe desert was more pancake than crepe I suspect that they are very new, so they need to work on quality control. I plan to try them again in the future and update the review. read more

Good Food Poor Service I want to say the food from this place is authentic and very delicious for the most part. The sea bass is one of my favorite dishes. Senegalese food is just so flavorful and I recommend almost all the dishes on the menu. The service is pretty weak (from one gentleman in particular). The staff is inattentive and you have to beg to get served and then later wonder when they will come clear the plates and/or offer additional service. Then when you go out of your way to ask for something like another can of beer, you get the eye roll. I understand if the place was busy, but the place was basically empty at 3 in the afternoon. I was with a few other people and we continued to get the cold shoulder throughout our time there. I expect a classy place like this to have more attentive service. read more

The service was very slow. Quite pricey and the burger patties smelled uncooked. Wouldn't do it again.

Ordered Thiebou dienne and Mafe. Do not know if it is was authentic, but it was certainly not the tastiest Senegalese I've had. The beef accompanying the Mafe had some flavor but it did not seep all the way through. The fish accompanying the Thiebou dienne seemed quite burnt on the outside. Perhaps this is how the meal should be made? I do not know. But it wasn't great. Also didn't have the burst of flavor I needed. I don't know if it wasn't fresh or just burnt and thus dried out. The Mafe seemed to be more tomato than peanuts. It was tasty, probably the best thing we had, but I sensed it should be more peanut-y. I may be wrong The sweet plantains were mostly good. But it's fairly difficult to wreck these! Great ambience. read more

Lost our reservation and then gave me shit about it (actually said, "Hon, I don't think you MADE a reservation" until I showed them the confirmation email on my phone) and took over 40 minutes to seat us as a result. Did we get comped drinks or anything else for our trouble? Nope. The food was delicious, but two in our party got the wrong entrees - and not each others' just two totally different entrees, but we certainly weren't about to say anything since everyone was totally starving by this time. And ditto on those who have commented on the hit-or-miss service. Two were full on rude (see the one above who was condescending about our reservation) and two were the nicest, coolest servers ever. read more

Well, it's time to knock this place down a notch. I went there for brunch. It was raining out, and the two walls were open to the weather, which was gorgeous. The staff was attentive and nice, for the most part. I did sit right in front of the bartender without any sort of a greeting or acknowledgement. My main beef: the food. I ordered the salmon omelet, and it was beyond salty. Ordinarily, I love salt, but this just muddled the flavors and hurt to eat. I also ordered a double espresso, which never arrived, despite the staff checking in with me at regular intervals. They did not, however, forget to charge me for it. The staff also became noticeably less involved as my meal drew to a close. I had been sitting for quite some time with an empty plate, and still had to ask for the check. Prior to this, I was being checked in on at intervals of every ten minutes. The decor was quite nice, and like I said, the staff was friendly. For me, a restaurant boils down to the food, and in this case, it was sorely lacking, especially for the price. read more

Def overpriced, mediocre to bad cocktails, food had ok taste. I got the lamb my friend got the red snapper. Good portions though for sure.. we were definitely full at the end. One Salad and one appetizer to share with one main and one coctail each was like $60 a person. read more

I stopped by this place the day it opened. I was actually on the opposite corner and I stopped in my tracks because it looked so great. Beautiful interior, a bit of a unique but classic vibe. My friends and I were out to celebrate my roommates return from Navy boot camp so I was a little hesitant at first to jump in somewhere brand new. I was pleasantly (well, let's say EXTREMELY) surprised at the quality of everything. The cocktails were incredible - my favorite was The Bohemian. I got the burger. It was full of flavor and I actually had to slow down to savor it. I wasn't sure about dessert but when the waitress suggested the Doussant I couldn't resist. We split it and I literally sat there wide-eyed at how tasty it was. Possibly one of the best desserts I've tried in New York. Needless to say we had a wonderful night and the staff was so friendly! I hope to stop by again whenever I am in the neighborhood. read more

Great food and drinks. Amazing vibe and very friendly service. I've been to Rue Dix twice and had amazing experiences both times. I wish this place was closer to me...I'd be there ALL THE TIME! read more

The portions are tiny and prices exorbitant. It smacks of opportunism and borders on the downright greedy. Hard not to leave feeling like you've been had. KALE SALAD: $9. Tiny. Sandy. Like full of sand sandy. Pointed this out and they took it back, then came back out with the exact same piece of kale, rinsed, and in a smaller bowl. I think the bowl was smaller because I'd already eaten some of the kale. Still sandy. DRINKS: $12. Made with Evan Williams. $12 is $1 less than a cocktail at Little Branch or Milk and Honey. TUNA TARTARE: - $14.Took up 10% of my plate, and of that 10%, 95% was avocado, not tuna. I got about as much tuna as in one to one and a half tuna rolls. The remaining 90% of the plate is made up of "maison chips". Maison means house. Chips means chips. Maison chips means homemade chips. These were bag chips, not homemade chips. And if you insist on calling them "maison" at least get the word order right and call them "chips maison", but really just call them bag chips, seeing as how they came out of a bag. POSITIVES: They have African stuff on the walls. They have African stuff in the bathroom. They painted the outside with zigzags and triangles, which appears African. I really wanted to like this place, unfortunately it's just a bit crap. read more

$35ish for 2 people for brunch, but not worth a return or recommendation given the service. Nice but pretty unmemorable duck confit (the only Senegalese touch seemed the sharp hot sauce on ths side) and the green eggs & salmon, which had that in spades. VERY slow service, and clearly understaffed (with both existing staffers seeming inexperienced). Instead of the Wednesday night $29 three-course, all-Senegalese prix fixe (at least that was the price & deal as of their 2014 NYT Hungry City column), we stopped in for brunch and were seated at the only available table, a 2-top near the curtained door where people entering and being turned away kept bumping into us. The read more

I looooooooooooooooooooove this place! I loooooooooooooove this place! From the owner to the Bartender Dana............. OMG! Everything was just perfect! It all started with the cocktail - what is it called again - uuuuuuuuuuuhm - Ok people I can't remember it - but the cocktail is mentioned here. Appetizers: Calamari with the avocado salsa - SO GOOD Kale Spring Rolls - AWESOME Salads: Kale with Avocado - AWESOME......... It is like you get a big dish of seasoned kale with a half avocado with dressing in the center - oh so good... AMAZING Entree: Grilled Sea Bass - OFF THE HOOK............... OFF THE HOOK PEOPLE............ OFF THE METERS!.................. Dang need I say more......... A MUST HAVE!!! Woo hoo........... And Dana was awesooooooooooooooooooooome! Great Ambiance........ Other dishes that friends had: Salmon dish was awesome as well........... PEOPLE YOU MUST VISIT AND TRY WHAT I SUGGESTED - LOL! Happy Eating read more

To echo a fellow Yelper's review, you really do have to be adventurous because Senegalese coffee is DEFINITELY an acquired taste. Trust that you've never had anything like it before. Imagine a strong, dark roast mixed with the aftershave balm of an older European gentleman. I finished with great effort, but it was worth the experience of having tried this exotic blend. It also had the added benefit of keeping me awake for hours into the night. My friend and I shared the bread pudding, which was everything I needed that afternoon - warmth, comforting rich flavors and companionship. Coupled with the coziness of our conversation, I longed for a couch to take in the ambiance as the lights dimmed and dinner began to be served. I can't wait to go back for Senegalese supper. read more

Hmm I hate to break the 5 star streak. :-( I visited Cafe Rue Dix a few days after it opened. The ambiance/decor was beautiful! The open front is great for summer people watching. Unfortunately, the food was just good, not great, and the price point is A bit too high for the food and the neighborhood... My friend and I tried the kale zinger, the duck and lentils and the Cornish hen with lemon potatoes. The kale zinger was my fav dish... Half an avocado with 1 leaf of red kale and a tiny bit of frisée topped with some good olive oil, basil and sea salt... Super tasty.. But $9? The duck leg and the Cornish hen were both pretty good... Although I found both under seasoned. The other entrees were in the $20-$30 and above range... Generally more than I want to pay for a casual dinner in the nabe... I overheard someone saying the Senegalese menu would debut soon. Looking forward to that! I would give 3 stars for food, but the super friendly host and beautiful decor warrant an additional star! read more

LOVE this place! Do yourself a favor and eat here. Food is always really tasty and portions are a good size. Drinks are good and there's happy hour every day. Staff is also friendly and very helpful. read more

I came back here hoping the food was going to be great. It turned out I was wrong. Not only was the food lousy but I also noticed that the restaurant plates the food on something called "joss paper" which is actually a traditional Chinese ghost money that is suppose to be burnt for the deceased on Asian religious practices, such as funerals or other celebrations to celebrate the deceased. I'm not sure if you care about what I'm mentioning to you but it would be great if y'all changed it up and maybe use something else to decorate the plating? I wish I was able to try the fatayas but it felt really weird for me like I was sharing a snack for with the deceased! read more

3.5 stars Everytime I've eaten here, whether for brunch or dinner...or just dessert & drinks....the food has been good. They serve a great brunch & the menu is more so fish-oriented at night. You'll find a dimly-lit intimate (but not tiny) French-bohemian-cafe -style atmosphere with African accents that's artsy, pretty laid back & something we've needed in Crown Heights for ages. The service has been hit or miss. A few times it's been cheerful & attentive. But odd things happen like the waitress will stop & chat with you warmly like a friend but never ask if/what you need - i.e. forget to bring you a menu after the initial chat, or water (at all!) or drinks, or take your finished plate that's been sitting there demolished for 20 minutes. A few times the service has been great though, but other times I was ignored or got the feeling that the staff would rather chat with eachother than do basic server stuff - just like how it is in Paris! Food: *I've had the most amazing french toast with fruit and a to-die-for creme brûlée syrup @ brunch * I've had the lamb - pretty good * I've had the creme brûlée & some decent cocktails. They have bitburger German beer here too which is one of my favorites. The bartender made me the most amazing sangria drink ever (since I said I was craving it) it had so many fresh strawberries it was like a fruit salad cocktail ! The flavor was amazing...then the check came - I was charged $13 or $14 for this cocktail * I tried to order the African red rice (the yummiest rice ever!) on the side or by itself to accompany another dish I ordered & they refused. I was told I could only get it with that one specific Sengalese dish it comes with:Thiedbou Jen (sp?) * have had the steak sandwich which was great & the burger which was just ok * frites/fries here are awesome * ordered a roast chicken dish awhile back (I think it's no longer on the menu) via delivery...took forever & the food was all run together & all over the bag when it arrived Other notes: when you try to look at the menu online, you can't read it. I've told them about this twice, but the same blurry, UN-zoomable picture of the menu remains If you're expecting African food, there's like 2 - 3 things that relate to Sengalese cuisine, Thiedbou Jen (the Senegalese national dish involving stewed fish & veggies over delicious red rice) & a spicy chicken dish & maybe one other I think fish dish. Sometimes they have specials like beef stew in peanut butter sauce, which I've enjoyed at other restaurants - never here - it's very Senegalese as well. While most other dishes besides these may have some "safe" African accents, its kinda mainstream cafe fare ...American with Parisian aspects...for the most part - so just keep this in mind if you are looking more Sengalese-centric cuisine. read more

Hey what's up everyone. I'm not much of a reviewer type guy but because my wife was disappointed and I was some what embarrassed - I had to write this one. So I asked my wife to accompany to brunch and we chose Cafe Rue Dix. It's in our neighborhood and we thought we would give it a shot. As to not prolong this review lets cut straight to the chase - service was horrible and the food was mediocre at best. 1) Ordered our food about 10 minutes before another person placed their order and that person received their food before we did. (Disrespectful) which at the time we were the only 3 people there! 2) we ordered something to drink - my wife order the limeade or something of the sort and she ended up taking hers to go because the fellow never made her drink. 3) the kale was burnt on the kale and eggs she ordered. So in conclusion - you can take your chances here but the bottom line is that their are to many restaurants in general for you to choose this one and have a crappy experience. If you have money for a crap shoot - then try your luck here at Bedford avenue's finest -Cafe Rue Don't. read more

An African-French bistro? Got to love the combos Brooklyn restauranteurs are coming up with these days. I heard about this place on Chowhound awhile back and since my brother was in town and wanted to watch the Ivory Coast-Japan game for the World Cup, we decided Cafe Due Rix would make for an eventful dinner. The place was pretty packed and remained so through the game. With a big projector in a dimly lit, normally romantic looking restaurant, it was an interesting scene. As much as I loved the place going nuts throughout the game--including when they got 2 goals for the win in the last 15 minutes--the service we got was well meaning but kind of sucked. Our server flat out forgot to put in the order for our entrees, even asking my brother if we wanted dessert while I was in the bathroom. Not only that, but he BS'ed that my fish was what held everything up later on. I'm not a chef but I know it doesn't take an hour to grill a bronzino. He only apologized at the end of the meal, insisting on buying us a round when we were trying to leave. Between all of that, him disappearing for long stretches and and trying to cut me in line for the bathroom, it's safe to say the service isn't the high point here. And while food showed promise, it was too uneven to make up for that. I got a bourbon based cocktail which was very well made; I ended up having 3 of them while my brother stuck to beer. The empanadas we got as an appetizer were very good. They had a nice, flaky shell and their beef filling was well seasoned. The hot sauce they came with was great as well with a deep, earthy spice to it. The fried calamari was a decent portion for the price point, but definitely on the salty side. The avocado sauce it came with was soothing but pretty generic otherwise. As I mentioned I got the bronzino, which was grilled with spices and served whole on an iron skillet. They did a great job seasoning and grilling the fish, which by the way was not on the small side. Topped with tangy caramelized onions and plantains, this was a definitely hearty entree. My brother's shrimp pasta was downright mediocre according to him and the one bite I tried backed that up. The problem was that the sauce was very plain and the pasta was stuck together like it had been sitting out for awhile--which it probably was while they were rushing on my fish. Granted this probably isn't the best dish to get at an African place, but it's more or less what he orders at every single restaurant. If it's on the menu, they should at least do a decent rendition and all around this one kind of sucked. All in all a fun place but too uneven of an experience. I would go again but I wouldn't rush back. Too bad, because it's a unique restaurant and what they do well they do really well. read more

I came for a birthday dinner here and we basically took up the entire restaurant. A great place for dinner, the food was excellent. I started with the Senegalese spring rolls, which were fantastic. The beef and shrimp rolls seemed to be rolled in rice paper and then flash fried. A little bit of crunch and a whole lot of flavor, whatever the sauce was that was on there was delicious. A little bit of heat that creeps up on you, but nothing too harsh. One of the best appetizers that I've had in a long-long time. For dinner, I tried the Branzino and the Thiebou Jen. The branzino was flaky and cooked with a terrific sauce. It was served with onions and sweet plantains on an iron pan. I am not entirely familiar with the spices that were used, but all of it was delicious. The Thiebou Jen is a dish of stewed fish and vegetables over rice. This looked like red rice to me, and was well seasoned with lots of flavor. I stirred the fish and vegetables into the rice and it made for a perfect bite each time. I have only ever been to one other West African restaurant, and this place is very comparable for the most part. Afterwards, I was kicking myself for not trying the lamb, but how am I not going to order the national dish? (Thiebou Jen). The Kale Heminway is a bright green drink that I ordered due to the happy hour special. It was very refreshing, a good amount of lime flavor. I'd recommending trying it, even if you aren't sure that it will be your cup of tea. The Michelada is also available for happy hour, but that is not my bag. A bloody mary with beer instead of alcohol. Service was very friendly, which was especially wonderful considering how large of a party we were and how that can overwhelm the kitchen and service staff. Our food came out quickly, especially the Senegalese spring rolls, which came out about 30 seconds after we ordered them. read more

I went here for a friend's birthday and the restaurant was very accommodating of our large group. The decor was nice with dark wood and a full bar. Service was quick, with a casual friendliness that felt very genuine. My section of the group ordered the Sengalese spring rolls to start and these were great. They had a surprising heat to them and we wound up ordering another round. I ordered a beer cocktail that was basically a Corona mixed with a spicy, Old Bay like concoction. I would not recommend this drink, it just wasn't my bag. For my entree I had the Branzino with couscous. It came with plantains and onions. All in all it was a nice dish, but it didn't blow me away. I was a little let down since the appetizers had been so good. I would give this place another try because my companions all really enjoyed their food and overall it was a very nice dining experience. It is a smaller place so I would definitely recommend calling ahead if you have a large party. Otherwise people seemed to just walk up and be seated on a Saturday evening. read more

I had passed by this restaurant on more than a few occasions and was intrigued by the French-Senegalese menu and decor. On Oct 4 I went there with a somewhat large group of 7 for dinner around 9:30. At that point there was one couple finishing dinner and maybe two or three people at the bar. We were seated immediately told the specials. I ended up getting one of them, Senegalese Lamb stew with white rice. It was phenomenal! The lamb was very savory and flavorful and had obviously stewed for some time as it was all gravy and meat, not a bone in the dish. The table shared a few appetizers, the Senegalese spring rolls and Calamari and both were tasty but not amazing. They have an extensive cocktail and wine list and well as a number of African beers in bottles. The prices were very reasonable and the ambiance was great. The music varied between 60s-70s American Funk and Soul, Fela Kuti sounding music, French Jazz and American R&B. This is a great date night spot for the Crown Heights/Bed-Stuy area and I recommend it to all. read more

I really wanted to like this place -- super cute, prime corner space... but the service was horrendous. Maybe it's just the lunch shift, but the blond waitress should not be in the service industry. I might have let it slide as a one-time thing but my friends went back recently and received the same awful service from the same server. Few notes: 1) It was weekday lunchtime -- maybe one other customer in the restaurant. I think she was the only server but c'mon, there were only two tables. 2) If there are only two tables, check on them to make sure they have what they need. Our food came out and I swear it took 15 minutes to wave her down to get utensils because she never brought us any and was too busy chatting with her friend and making sure her hair looked good (no really, she was futzing with her hair for a good 5-10 minutes while we tried to make eye contact to get some freakin' utensils. 3) If you forget to bring your customer a drink and she very nicely comes up to you to check in on it, your response should not be "I'll get to it, I'm just putting in an order." followed by a very clear eye roll. As for the food, it was mediocre at best, but maybe that's because our food was cold by the time the waitress who should not be a waitress got us our utensils so we could eat it. Seriously, the owner needs to have a talk with this server or just fire her already. Gah! read more

Great addition to the neighborhood. This has become my new go to restaurant in my neighborhood. Ambiance is great and food is of high quality. Cocktails are great especially if you are a rum drinker. My only criticism is that there brunch menu is lacking accessible dishes. Need more Breakfast dishes on the brunch menu. Other than that I patronize this spot regularly. read more

Steak was great. I loved their sangria as well. I can see why it's always so packed!!!! I look forward to returning

I came on a Friday night and by 7PM it was pretty packed. My host was very welcoming.The ambiance is small, dark, but beautifully decorated. I had the Yassa Guninar with rice. I thought the portion was quite small. The stew (sauce) came in soup bowl (that's how much of it there was) served with rice with a quarter piece of chicken on top. The chicken was not as flavorful as the stew and I found that the portion was quite small. I can understand why the stew was served on the side as there is so much of it, but you definitely need more rice to eat it with. Also, while the chicken isn't spicy, the stew does have a kick to it. In sum, the portion was quite small for the $20 paid for the entrée. read more

The owners of Cafe Rue Dix are citizens of the world and you can feel it in their hospitality, menu, and decor. With a meticulous attention to detail, Rue Dix delivers on experience as much as taste. It's the kind of place you want to take your time and see how the night unfolds, the energy is intimate & lively. Good for a cozy date or impromptu party with friends. Hands down, one of the best burgers I've had in New York City. It's true- the seasoning is unmatched and the bun is perfection. You can't go wrong on the menu and they are really starting to stretch out with Senegalese additions and daily specials. Explosive favors, innovative menu, impressive cocktails and great happy hour too! read more

Amazing! Absolutely delicious. I went here with a few Senegalese friends. Of course the restaurant made a few changes to the dishes compared to the traditional dishes BUT for the most part everything was authentic. We all enjoyed our dishes and felt satisfied. I had the traditional dish, Thiebou Jen. I've had it multiple times at various Senegalese restaurants and this has to be one of the best I've ever had. Another hit was the restaurant's lamb dish. My friends raved about it. For the dibi dish, the restaurant served lamb chops vs the expected chopped up lamb meat. My friends reported that it was still delicious despite the change. Ambience- We went during the summer, late afternoon. Cafe Rue Dix opens up the doors, or walls I guess during the summer. So it's like you're outside but you're inside. And it's a beautiful, breezy place. Service- Very attentive and knowledgable staff. read more

Cafe Rue Dix is a really fun Crown Heights spot. I'd been hearing about it for ages but don't make it out to Crown Heights often. So when a friend invited me to check it out for dinner I knew I had to go. We ordered the steak sandwich and the spicy chicken stew over cous cous. The chicken stew was awesome and the portion was huge. I'm normally a member of the clean plate club and even I couldn't finish it. I didn't try the steak sandwich but my friend seemed to really enjoy it. The service and ambiance of Rue Dix was great as well. It's a great mix of casual and date-y. Will be back to try more! read more

Nice vibe, cool music, bartender pleasant but could have been a little more attentive. Love the vegetarian African stew and the chickpea salad! Prices were reasonable. read more

Wow. This place is a hit. First things first, the decor and ambience is welcoming; decked with Senegalese decor. I went here with my parents and boyfriend after my graduation commencement so it was a happy. And our meal only helped improve the mood! We had the empanadas for appetizer: the meat inside was just delicious. Add in the sipping hot sauce and you have a great appetizer! Meal-wise, I had the cafe rue burger and it was the best I have ever had. Not only Was it seasoned well, it was paired with my favorite kind of Fries (with the skin on them). There is also a happy hour until 7 during the week which includes lower prices for more than just the drinks. I definitely recommend this place! read more

I thoroughly enjoyed this place. I went with a friend and my mom. I had the Senegalese traditional meal. My mom had the burger and fries. My friend had the sea bass with mixed veggies. We ordered a bottle of wine and the chocolate lava cake as well. Overall, it was a very good meal. We went on a Friday night and it was pretty quiet which was nice for good conversation. In terms of the food, my meal was very flavorful with a touch of spice. I enjoyed it very much. It does have a fishy smell (not taste) to it but it reminded me of a Nigerian dish I have eaten in the past. That may bother some people depending on your preference. My mom and friend both loved their meals. I would return here and/or recommend it to someone! read more
