via LibroJe recommande vivement ce restaurant. Qualité des plats, convivialité & service au top !!!
via LibroBeautiful restaurant with such good food. You don't want to miss it! We had a wonderful time. Thank you.
via LibroBon Resto apportez votre vin; on y déguste des plats bien délicieux. C'est vraiment beau à l'intérieur & le chef est super simpa
via LibroThe food was good & the atmosphere is vibrant & lively. Unfortunately, the bill was a bit of a shock when we got it. There was no menu so we were a bit unprepared for what it would cost. The bill came to $130 for four of us, & we had no drinks, just food. What we had was tasty but didn't seem quite worth the price.
via LibroWhat a unique eating experience! All these adjectives apply; comfortable, delicious, casual, interesting, friendly & affordable. Much recommended.

Une magnifique expérience entre amis!
Repas & ambiance conviviales......
via LibroExcellent service. Seul b mole, j'ai aimé décidé moi quand je quitte la table. 1h30 est court en amoureux. Mais sommes tout, je recommande fortement.
via LibroAccueil d'une grande gentillesse. Le proprio a tenu à nous installer sous notre tente préférée, la première à gauche dans la deuxième salle, alors que notre petit groupe s'était déjà installé dans la première salle. Il nous connaît bien désormais. La formule du repas ne change pas, mais les plats changent évidemment. Le plat végé d'hier était un régal avec sa débauche de haricots, le poulet au citron est toujours égal à lui-même, un délice ! & nous avons apprécié & savouré le plat de boeuf. Bref, que des saveurs, des sourires & de la bonne humeur ! On se sent bien sous les tentes.
via LibroAmazing environment, food is delicious & it's BYOW. Very cozy & you get to take your shoes off which makes everything more comfy.
via LibroDécor accueillant & intimiste. Le chef va à votre rencontre & il très fier de vous faire connaître sa cuisine. Plats savoureux à partager, ce qui incite aux rapprochements. apportez votre vin, ce qui incite au relâchement.
via LibroNous avions réservé avec Mtl à table, un menu offert à 21$, mais nous avons payé 25$ + taxes. Le potentiel est là, mais le service était trop expéditif, & la nourriture plutôt tiède.
via LibroMa découverte de l'année! Une super belle expérience & de la nourriture délicieuse!
via LibroC'est un endroit intéressant & dépaysant pour se retrouver en groupe un soir d'hiver, mais la nourriture y est ordinaire & le service laisse à désirer.
via LibroC'est toute une ambiance chaleureuse & familiale , une nourriture délicieuse & qui nous porte au voyage.

Worth a 2nd visit but?...
I did not know what to expect from this African neighborhood restaurant.
Upon entering the decor is authentic & tastefully done. I was surprised that we had to remove our shoes & seated on small benches on the floor. I am very tall & it was not very comfortable. (I saw they have real tables & chairs in the adjacent room...I will ask for that the next time)
It was a fixed menu which included soup to start (tasty but luke warm. We shared a platter of the 3 main courses (beef, vegetable, chicken) served on top of couscous. The platter looked beautiful & all the dishes were tasty but I was looking for more authentic pronounced flavors. For dessert we were served little cookies with tea which once agin tasted good but was luke warm. I understand it was Mtl a Table & very busy but this is a chance for a restaurant to put their best foot forward. I will return to give it a second try to see if it will be better because the food WAS good & service of the owners was very friendly & caring.

Atmosphère dépaysante & exotique. Accueil chaleureux suivi d'un repas copieux & savoureux. Merci au proprio-chef: une expérience fort agréable.
& on peut apportez son vin...
via LibroAccueil chaleureux, couscous délicieusement parfumé, viandes tendres, ambiance décontractée, décor invitant, prix raisonnable & un apportez votre vin, un peu en retrait de la frénésie du Plateau, que demander de plus ? & absolument rien à redire sur la propreté !

Very good service - the restaurant needs a little 'face-lift'...it's a little 'rough-around-the-edges'. Bathrooms are super tiny & need some work. The menu VERY simple with only 3 items which are all served together on a sharing plate over couscous. Home cooked style. It is a VERY busy spot for a so-so experience.
