First time trying Ivorian food, delicious. The grilled fish and attieke was outstanding. Be sure to mix the peppers on the attieke well because a single bite of them left my mouth burning for 10 minutes! Be sure to grab a bissap juice as well
Amazing, the cuisine was delicious, and I was so pleased to be African that I would not think twice about returning. I got lamb with fried plantains, which was delicious. Once more, thank you, NY. Thank you, my ivoirians.
Food was horrible! They gave me burnt fish and the onion was old it had a bad smell! Threw it all in the garbage! THEY ARE DIRTY
The worst experience! $100 for sour white rice, stale re-fried plantains and oily fish! So disappointed 😞 The place can also use some major updating!
The service improved waayyyyyyy much more hence the change in review...
Ok so i had a trip out the Jersey today for work and my hubby and i decided to drive to NY City to get atcheke. Actually in all fairness this was not the actual place i bought superb atcheke about 2 years ago. But since we mapped it and it took us here, i said why not.
Horrible taste for $19 an order. Got 7 orders. The atcheke was super dry and there was no sauce. Instead we were given pepper mixed with mayonaise. Avoid this place. The fish was inbetween dru and a.little.moist. Its one thing if the ambiance is poor but the food is excellent. Anorher horrible thing when both the ambiance and food are horrible which was the case.
Further, how cN you possibly go wrong with aloco, i mean this is an Ivorian side. Even a 5 year old can make aloco. It was down right TASTELESS.
I gave this place a 2 star because the lady was polite. One more thing, men kept coming in to use the rest room and were maskless. Who does that in todays world. The store did not even stop them from coming in considering the huge pandemic in NY.
Never again. There is a way better place, just cant remember the name...

I work down the block from this restaurant.One of my coworkers recommended this restaurant to me. I ordered the fried fish with the jollof rice,peppers and sweet plantains. This is the best fish I have ever eaten,and I'm not big on eating fish. I will definitely be back again to try the pepper soup that was recommended for me to try as well.
The establishment is always loud and this doesn’t affect the food quality only the ambience . The prices are fair and the subway is a few blocks away .
Quick eatery , they could improve on the cleanliness of the restrooms .
