    The best Sub-Saharan restaurant in Montreal? Very tasty and different, nice service, clean and can handle big groups(we were 20!)

    Excellent food and you can even bring your own bottle of wine. I went there with friends from Cameroon and everyone like it.

    When this place opened in 2012 I tried out the food and it was amazing, which is why this place…read moredeserves three stars for the food. All the other meat dishes like the tilapia were very good but my favorite was the fried chicken, which roasted fresh with authentic Portuguese-style pili pili sauce was tender and juicy. They even had a loyalty card. Fill out a row and get a free meal. Then without warning in 2014 it was closed or rather never opened for a year and a half (I later found out the rent was still being paid despite all this). I had heard that the owners were traveling out of the country to the West African nation of Senegal (during the Ebola outbreak no less, so I feared the worst for them). I was glad when I saw them back in town in 2017 but when the restaurant reopened I was told that it was under new management and the manager refused to honor the loyalty card. He jokingly offered me a free meal as a handout if I had no money, which ticked me off since all I wanted was my money's worth. I hate it when businesses do that, taking people's money and then pulling this stunt. Even before they closed, I wanted to redeem my loyalty card for a free meal, but the owner Kadi asked if I could refrain from doing so as she said that money was tight and like a sucker I believed her. I should have said too bad and lawfully claimed my free meal. Now that it's under a new business number even though it's still the same owners (obviously a scam and most likely a front), I can't legally force them to honor their loyalty card. Also, which restaurant can stay in business even when it's So I never did try the food under the new management and it's just as well since reviews on other sites have the less than stellar comments about the overall food quality and the cleanliness of the place, too.

    The place we usually frequent in Montreal (La Firenze) was closed unsurprisingly so we needed a…read morequick fix somewhere else. Found this place on yelp, 40 min drive from DT, but to try Senegalese goat it was worth the effort. We preferred Two ordees of goat, one order if plantain.... ask for pili pili oh the side. It wasn't really hot which was disappointing... We're use to the pili pili from Congo the can send you to the hospital! The goat takes about 30 min but it was worth the wait. We actually preordered so by the time we arrived it was ready. Friendly waitress. Clean resto and loved the music. I'd ask for the banana to be cut thicker because it was too thin and hard. The goat just needed to be accompanied by a beautiful pili pili so that's all that we were really missing. Will come back with some in my bag maybe lol. I'm excited to try other menu items.
