    #3 Mandela Burger
    Scarlett M.

    Got the #3 Mandela Burger with curry potatoes. The #3 was advertised as being spicy, but I didn't think it was spicy; flavorful yes, spicy no. This was my first time trying a meatless burger, so I wasn't sure what to expect. There were two patties, and to me they tasted kinda like falafel, but with less/different seasoning. They tasted pretty good though, and the burger hit my two critical points - flavorful and not dry - which means it surpassed some beef burgers. The curry potatoes were soggy, which was sad. However, I dislike regular fries, so even soggy I would prefer these curry fries/pirates because they had some flavor. Overall I thought the food, but I wish the potatoes had been crispy - or at least firmer - and that the meal had been $1-$2 cheaper (credit card total $13.13 for burger and potatoes).

    My daughter and I went to a pop up they're doing here in Florida at a local café. We got there early because I knew I had to try their food. It was all amazing! We got the sliders, the baked curry potatoes (fries) and fried rice with tofu, which comes with a side of slaw. We loved it. Everything is fresh and flavorful. And the sauce on the sliders, bangin'! On top of that the owners are kind and good hearted souls. I could go on an on but I'd suggest trying for yourself if you can. *the food was so good I didn't even ponder taking pictures. sorry not sorry

    This food truck came out to my work in the east. I found the employees to be friendly and helpful. I got the red beans and rice and oh my goodness it was wonderful. Tasty and full of flavor. I love a good food truck.

    Wow this is delicious. Spicy, juicy, and saucey! Their fries are not playing around. Highly recommend

    I had Tanjariné from the food truck park off Tchoupitoulas the other day and OMG I'm still dreaming about it!!!!!!!!! First off, the food is insanely great! Like 100 stars good. Bonus: The man serving us felt like family. He was so kind and having so much fun, it made the experience even better. I had the veggies and rice and the wrap which were both to die for! Both were incredibly filling and tasted GREAT! My sister had the Mandela Burger and she RAVED about it! Service was fast and the food truck park has games and TVs, so it was fun while we waited briefly for our amazing food. I LOVE Tanjariné Kitchen and I can't wait to go back for the Mandela Burger, I've heard AMAZING things about it! 6 stars, if I could

    Mmmhmmm. Yep! That's it; that's the review…read more Honestly, all the previous reviews are right--this is a hidden gem. It's a little off the beaten (touristy) path, though in close proximity to the path. Soooo more of yall should find your way over here!! I ate so good. If you are plant-based or vegetarian, they have an EXCELLENT array of options! See photo evidence.

    I Just had another fantastic meal at Bennachin Restaurant on 1212 Royal Street in the heart of New…read moreOrleans' French Quarter, and as a local from the area, it's hands-down one of my all-time favorites for authentic West African cuisine. If you're craving bold flavors and a cozy spot that feels like a hidden gem, this place never disappoints--highly recommend for locals and visitors alike! The vibe here is warm and inviting, with simple, colorful decor that transports you straight to Cameroon or Gambia without leaving NOLA. It's a small, intimate space, perfect for a casual dinner or even a quick lunch amid the Quarter's hustle. Parking can be tricky on Royal Street, but it's worth the walk--plus, the location puts you right in the mix of historic charm and lively energy. Service is always spot-on: friendly, knowledgeable staff who make you feel like family. Our server chatted about the menu's inspirations and helped customize spice levels, which is great for anyone new to African dishes. Everything came out promptly, even on a busy evening, and they were attentive without hovering. Now, the food--oh man, where to start? It's all about that delicious, authentic goodness. My absolute go-to is the shrimp rice and spinach dish; the jollof rice is perfectly spiced with a rich tomato base, tender shrimp, and just the right kick, paired with sautéed spinach that's garlicky and fresh. It's hearty, flavorful, and reminds me of home-cooked comfort with an exotic twist. We also tried the plantains--crispy on the outside, soft inside--and the akara (black-eyed pea fritters) as starters, which were crispy, savory perfection. Portions are generous, and everything's made with fresh ingredients that shine through in every bite. If you're vegetarian, they've got plenty of options like the vegetable curry that pack the same punch. Prices are reasonable for the quality--entrees around $15-20--and it's BYOB, which keeps things affordable and fun. No frills, just straight-up deliciousness. As someone who's been coming here for years, Bennachin captures the essence of authentic African flavors in a way few places do. Whether you're a NOLA native like me or just passing through, do yourself a favor and stop in--you'll leave planning your next visit!

At first I was hesitant about the family style format, and about Senegalese cuisine since I've never had it before, but both were non-issues. We arrived about 5 minutes past our dining time at 4:30pm (there are also 8pm seatings) but we didn't get started until perhaps 4:45pm or so. The dress was casual, servers were polite and efficient, and the food was thoughtful. Some of my favorites from the night included: - Attaya drink: We were told this had ginger and tumeric. It had a fun celery-like foam. - Dakar Bread: The Palm oil rolls were sweet and salty perfection. The butter was nice but the rolls were great even without the spiced butter. - Yellow Fin Suya: This was my favorite. The tuna and crème fraiche and small shrimp all came together in a delicious bite. - Dibi: Wonderful flavor on the shrimp - Wafe: The skin on the Gulf fish was excellent - The palate cleanser with the grape/mint/sugar/sherbet was fantastic The dinner lasted about an hour and a half and it was still light enough to walk, although towards the evening the neighborhoods got more and more sketchy. Delicious food - would recommend!

    First time trying this place and I really enjoyed what I got! My friends and I shared the Jollof…read morerice with chicken, the Egusi soup with beef, and the Ogbono (okra) soup with goat. Sooo flavorful!!! I requested extra spice and it was the right amount! They will charge extra for spice. The woman who checked me out recommended the Ogbono soup and it was my favorite of the three. I loved the consistency the okra gave it and the flavor was just there. The goat was soo tender too! I had this with the fufu to scoop. Each soup came with its own fufu and it was plenty to share around. The fried plantains were not as soft as I expected it to be and not sweet enough, but she did warn me beforehand and told me it's because it's not in season right now. This location may be hard to locate even with GPS, but just find the automobile shop and turn into the strip mall. I will definitely be coming back to try their other dishes!

I always get the same thing when I go, but next time I will have to venture out because the food it was just so good when I I first started with the crabcakes, I will say the crabcakes did not come as I expected, but they were still very good. I was expecting more of a flatter crabcake, but because they were fried, it still held up to my expectation then the salad came out and the salad was very good. I also ordered a lemon berry martini and it was very good. Also, I love the sugar rim on the glass. And finally, I ordered the grilled catfish with the crawfish, cornbread and mashed potatoes and green beans and it was amazing. Our waiter always recommends the crawfish cornbread with the grilled fish, and it was literally the best thing that I've gotten. The service was amazing. Our waiter was very patient with us and took the time to explain any questions that we had. I will say when I went to the Grapevine this time it was a little darker in there than normal, which was a little concerning because I could not see the menu as well as I normally can so being that it was dark it was kinda hard to read the menu and eat our food too . For dessert I decided to get the white chocolate bread pudding and it was so hot and good. It was fresh. It was good. It wasn't too sweet it was just right overall I give this place a 10 out of 10. I will definitely be back sooner than I think.
