C'était une belle expérience.
Le repas était très bon... Nous avons beaucoup aimé.
Le jeune à la réception est très gentil, courtois & respectueux. Il fait un effort de mettre les clients à l'aise.
L'équipe en cuisine vous fait patienter avec des beignets chauds & bons! Les repas commandés sont très succulents par la suite.
On a vraiment passé un bon moment. Je recommande à 100%

Best African restaurant in Montreal. We were a group of 9. Christelle was so sweet. She went out of her way to accomodate our needs. Food was excellent, delicious & atmosphere was pleasant with some nice music playing in background. Will definitely go again & recommend it wholeheartedly.
Je tiens à vous exprimer toute ma gratitude pour l'excellente expérience que j'ai vécue dans votre restaurant. Dès mon arrivée, j'ai été chaleureusement accueilli, & l'ambiance immersive m'a transporté au coeur de l'Afrique.
Quant à la cuisine, un véritable délice ! Chaque plat était un voyage de saveurs, parfaitement assaisonné & préparé avec soin. Mention spéciale pour le poulet braisé & Alloco, qui a été un véritable coup de coeur !
Merci à toute l'équipe pour votre professionnalisme & votre passion. Je reviendrai avec grand plaisir & ne manquerai pas de recommander Hot Africa à mes proches !

Hot Africa c l'acceuil du staff Mais c Aussi la vraie cuisine camerounaise.
J'ai mangé le Ndole .la chèvre braissée est excellence. Les portions sont énorme & Les plats sont bien présentés.
Je vous le recommande fortement.
I came here with my friend, my wife, my parents, & my mother-in-law, & we had a wonderful time. The food was delicious, & the portions were very generous. Johan, the young man who was our waiter, was most courteous, & patient - he took the time to explain every dish we asked him about - his service should be the benchmark in every resto, imho. My parents & mother-in-law are very picky eaters, & they loved everything about this restaurant. I, highly recommend it to anyone who loves flavor, good vibes, & having a full tummy!

Highly recommended. I was visiting Montreal with my wife & my twin boys that are 3. My 3 year old kids are very picky with food, but they ate rice & plantain like never before. My wife is great cook & very picky too, if she says the meal is good then, it's really good. & she loved it too. We ordered 3 meals & service was really fast. Don't even get me started on quantity. We could not finish all 3 meals. Price is great, I've eaten at several places in Montreal in one week that we spent in the city, & no restaurant could beat this place with price & quantity.
