29/01/2026: Unique restaurant and decor. Friendly welcome. Very good and generous portions. An original sharing tradition. Excellent value for money.

29/01/2026: The decor is beautiful and educational. The incense and music transport us to Shashamane. The food is divine! We were truly transported! Ameseguenalhou

25/02/2026: Solar-powered boss. And excellent food! I'll be back.

22/02/2026: We arrived and received a very warm welcome. The service was impeccable, and the price was excellent. I would definitely return. We enjoyed a delicious meal and the refreshing bissap juice was a real treat. I highly recommend this place!

20/02/2026: We ordered a tasting menu and an assortment of vegetarian dishes, and it was absolutely delicious! We also recommend the coffee, which is wonderfully smooth! The welcome was very warm, and the restaurant is beautifully decorated; it was an excellent experience! Remember to make a reservation, as the restaurant is quite small. We will gladly return (with a good appetite!).

14/02/2026: We went there for lunch today; the restaurant was absolutely top-notch in every way. A must-try!

27/02/2026: Not many people on this Friday the 20th, the start of the school holidays, but a very warm welcome from the owner, who kindly provided us with information and served excellent dishes, from appetizer to dessert. Very refined and original. The cocktails were also remarkable. Truly excellent.

13/02/2026: Excellent service, the starter, main course, and dessert were all delicious. Thank you.

26/02/2026: Honestly, the service was incredibly fast, the quality was amazing, and I loved the flavors. I ordered the rice in broth (it was to die for), the chicken (incredibly good), the yassa sauce (magnificent), and the side dish with tomatoes (even that was delicious). And the chili: I love a bit of heat, and this was seriously hot, I almost cried 😂 but I loved it. P.S.: Even the ginger candy that came with the dish was excellent XD

08/02/2026: I am an American wandering the streets of Paris. One of the interesting things I discovered, which shouldn't be a surprise, but Paris has ethnic neighborhoods (again, just like every other big city). As I was wandering I started to notice quite a few African-themed restaurants. Obviously France did more than their share of colonization, including Africa, so this shouldn't be a surprise. ANYWAY. I have not had a lot of exposure of African cuisine and I figured I might as well stop and have something. So I stopped at Osé African Cuisine. I would classify Osé as a fast-casual restaurant. A number of bowl options (including S/M/L options) and some sides. I only needed a snack, so I ordered the Alloko, which are basically plantain fries. They are very good. Kind of blackened and carmalizes. And they came with 3 dipping sauces. Red, green, and yellow. Just understand that yellow is the HOT one. I'm not scurred of hot sauces in general. The yellow is delicious, but legit hot. Nose running hot. Green and red are good, but I kept on going back to the yellow and punishing myself. Anyhoo. Give African cuisine a try. And if you're around Osé, give them a shot.

25/02/2026: One star for the service. The waitress asked us three times in ten minutes if the last customer would be arriving soon, even though we had already ordered our appetizers. We were this close to leaving to eat elsewhere. But the ravioli were delicious.

17/02/2026: I ordered the ravioli to take away. The quality/price ratio was average. I think one portion is more than enough for a moderately hungry person. The ravioli are average, the price is fair, and the service is 10/10. Everyone is friendly and fast. The place is very small, so if you're planning on eating in, it's good to know that! Otherwise, they're great! They're in a great location.

08/02/2026: I went back to L'Embuscade today with my husband, who isn't (yet!) vegan, because we loved it last time, and we adored it again. And, SURPRISE, Chef Phoebe Amalia Dunn was there—welcoming, smiling, and wonderful! I admire her for her creativity, her values, and her humanity. Going vegan is easy with a restaurant like this! Plus, the prices are very reasonable: €25 each for a shared starter, a delicious plantain burger, a sublime chocolate orange cream, lemonade, and beer. Thank you, Chef! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

07/02/2026: Nice experience. Very slow service! Good food.

24/09/2024: A wonderful discovery, following a recommendation from an acquaintance. We ordered an assortment of meats (spicy chicken and beef) with vegetables and lentils; it was full of flavor and very generous. The pancakes didn't last long; we asked for more, and the server brought them back very quickly. A great place for its value for money and the kindness of the restaurant staff. I'll be back to try more of your dishes!

11/09/2024: A wonderful discovery! Simply a delight.

21/01/2026: Good atmosphere and delicious food

18/02/2026: Excellent tagine and great service!

26/02/2026: Beautiful plce and te service was great

26/02/2026: My favorite African restaurant and one of my top spots when I'm in Paris from Switzerland. I love blood sausage and I'm addicted to accras (fritters).

07/12/2025: Good for new food experience, but not recommend for people who don't like spices. Food comes as one big plate to be shared with all the people on the table, and this is not announced in the menu.

07/12/2025: Excellent food. You can eat inside or outside, and there's not much of a wait. The place isn't very big, so I recommend making a reservation. The decor is lovely. I highly recommend it.

29/01/2026: Extremely disappointed with this restaurant, despite its many positive reviews. Having eaten Ethiopian food before, I can say that the portions were small and cold. The dishes weren't fresh (the meal was served as soon as we sat down). The price is exorbitant, especially considering that two of us suffered from indigestion afterward.

29/01/2026: Cold meal (not fresh), small portions, very expensive price, I do not recommend it.

15/10/2025: Very good meal 🥘 and the welcome was super warm

12/10/2025: A superb discovery of Ethiopian cuisine. The dishes are generous and delicious. All the staff are also very pleasant and welcoming.

13/02/2026: The food is excellent, with generous portions and a warm welcome from Kitzi.

13/02/2026: The food is delicious and the portions are perfect, phenomenal service. Second time here and I'll keep coming back 🥰
