Les meilleurs restaurantsde cuisine africaine en Paris

20/09/2024: Always so delicious and so nice... grandma and grandpa 😉

09/09/2024: Very kind lady from Gondar. You get typical Ethiopian hospitality and food in the heart of Paris.

15/12/2024: I'm not going back because the boss allows himself to make derogatory remarks to you 4 throughout the meal, bordering on being insistent. I left angry, he ruined our meal. For him it's humor and he didn't even have the tact to apologize. I don't recommend it just because it spoils the good food they offer.

14/12/2024: Very good restaurant, we were served quickly, very good food and friendly service. Thank you, I will come back

19/08/2024: Together with Eze The Glocalizer (@eze_theglocalizer) I went to visit L’embuscade to try out their menu for Black Love of Food (@blackloveoffood)! We loved that the place is fully vegan and black-owned. Eze is Cameroonian so to see a fellow Cameroonian owner of such a gem, was obviously extra heartwarming. And yes, I said it: a gem. What a place with dope food. Think African fine dining but without the crazy fine dining prices. We literally had to ask for some explanations for the dishes (also out of curiosity) and you’re taken on a journey of different African countries such as Senegal and of course Cameroon. What did we taste? Drinks: Ginger Lemonade Passionfruit Lemonade — delicious, fresh, those tropical flavours never get boring. Could literally drink it everyday. We went for alcohol free but ngl that the cocktails looked stellar and there was a cue for it lol. Appetizers: Cantaloupe Melon and Safou Tartar Crostini with Saka Saka and Pineapple Flambé — Literally things I’ve never seen on a menu before let alone taste. It was so good. I’m not really one for any type of tartar (which is why it was initially Eze’s dish) but I can truly say it was good, soft on the tongue and really nicely combined in terms of flavour. The crostini was so good I almost melted. Mains: Mbakhalou Saloum (A Senegalese bowl with a rice base, peanut sauce, black eyed peas, West-African spices and a tamarind glazed portobello mushroom skewer) Mbongo Tofu (A Cameroonian bowl with soy beans, tofu, white sweet potato, sautéed spinach with Mbongo spices, kale and oven baked plantain) — These bowls were so gooood. I loved the incorporation of West-African spices, filled bowls with so much flavour but also so good for the body. You could feel that they know what’s good for you in all of the senses. We are from each other’s bowls and were sad when they were empty but oh so grateful. Desserts: Los Diablitos (mini beignets with dark chocolate on a bed of pear, caramel drizzle and shredded coconut) Flambeur (plantain flambé with rum, oat crumble and ice cream) — These combinations were surprising yet heavenly! We are both not a great fan of liquor in desserts but L’embuscade did the damn thing. With plantain?? Come on now. Creative, delicious, just head over there already. L’embuscade knows what they’re doing. They also host private events in a nook in the back and their underground cosy club. The owner is such a generous person and literally introduced as to another African restaurant owner that we will tell you more about soon. Their spirit is warm and the audience is so diverse. That’s really lovely to see as someone in the African diaspora, cause indeed, we should get to know these flavours more. Africa is such a big and diverse continent where food is at the heart of the many different cultures. 10/10, don’t miss out on this place in your lifetime, ok?? Ok.

25/01/2025: Superbe restaurant service irréprochable

23/01/2025: Unfortunately very bad culinary experience for my part I must have come across the wrong chef or the wrong day But. All my dishes were extremely bad A choukchouka with powdered eggs in an oil bath And kofta balls without any flavor, abnormally round and very small, as if they were not homemade. A big red card for this kitchen

02/12/2024: Superb welcome, refined dish with lots of flavor. The reputation of the culinary specialties of Ethiopian cuisine is deserved, I really recommend this restaurant.

23/11/2024: We took the dish to share for 2, it was excellent and we were able to make a doggy bag with what was left 🤗 we took the homemade fruit juices which are very good too!

07/09/2024: Too good, very pleasant and fast service, very nice address. I will come back for sure

13/08/2024: The meal was excellent and the prices very attractive if you choose the dish of the day. I recommend!

29/11/2024: The couscous is simply delicious and the service is excellent.

16/11/2024: The facade doesn't look like much, but the welcome is warm and above all the couscous is copious, excellent and not too expensive. An address to recommend.

30/08/2024: Excellent couscous served in a friendly atmosphere

28/08/2024: Just perfect, impeccable traditional cuisine, you feel at home and the manager is very pleasant and welcoming. I have a great time there every time. Thank you Nacer

27/06/2025: Delicious and authentic korean food. The portions were quite big

27/06/2025: Nice dinner yesterday, I had japchae and kimchi jeon, both tasted good! The lady who served us was lovely.

02/12/2024: Quality meal but the room is not very well insulated. I was cold all evening. Too bad because it doesn't make you want to stay to taste but to hurry because it's too cold.

29/11/2024: Home cooking to die for Thank you very much for this experience Wine at its best To do again very quickly 🤩
