    Loved this little gem of a restaurant. Would enthusiastically return. We had the brunch which was delicious and meticulously prepared. Will return for the dinner which features more of the Afro-French fare that drew us in the first place.

    Food was disappointing and bland - service was atrocious- they seemed overwhelmed and it made everything rushed and anxious

    We had possibly the worst service I have experienced in memory. There was only one waiter and one person in the kitchen and there were several tables of people, all of whom waited forever for their food. It took 2 HOURS for 2 of the 4 main courses to arrive. They were trying but they just couldn’t do what was necessary to run a restaurant.

    Outstanding food, and a memorable "date night." The restaurant is run by a couple, and it's just them, so if service is a little slow, please be patient and have another glass of wine -- the food is more than worth it. Of particular interest to me is that it's very fish-centric; while they have meat on the menu, I eat little of it, and restaurants that do an exceptional job with fish and chicken always get a bump in my estimation. The place is quite small, so do make a reservation.

    What a fabulous addition to the Park Slope dining landscape. Delicious Franco-African cuisine. Abundant portions, good prices, interesting and fairly-priced wine list.

    They were out of nearly half the items on the menu. Service was very unpolished. It took over an hour for our appetizer and 1 hour and a half for entrees. Prices are very high for the quality, presentation, and ambiance. When looking for a nice, quality meal on a Saturday night this was disappointing on every level. Will not be going back.

    Great food. Quiet and cozy but elegant. We loved our brunch of crepe and croque masseur. Cooked to perfection, flavors were great. They are BYOB, so be sure to bring your own favorite wine.

    Wow. The food is amazing! Highly recommend this place for dinner. We’ve walked by several times but always thought it was more of a cafe or lunch spot. I think if they dim the lights a bit more and maybe hide the back counter, people will be more drawn to go there for dinner. Overall, we had a great experience and will definitely be going back!!!
