Had a great meal & experience here - the food was just wonderful & my server Ornella was absolutely lovely as well. There are a bunch of fusion dishes available but I tried a Congolese fish stew with steamed plantains which was delicious. Ornella made me feel very welcome & taken care of even though I was dining alone. & the restaurant itself is very beautiful! I definitely will come back here on my next visit to Montreal so I can try more of their menu items ⭐

Nous avions réservé pour 17 h 30 & avons commencé notre repas avec la salade avocat & mangue (sans crevettes) que nous avons partagée. C'était absolument délicieux : frais, savoureux & parfaitement équilibré.

Pour le plat principal, j'ai choisi la brochette de poulet avec plantains, tandis que mon conjoint a opté pour la version avec riz. Les deux assiettes étaient remplies de saveurs & d'épices que l'on retrouve aucunement dans la cuisine québécoise. Une très belle découverte de la gastronomie africaine authentique.
Le serveur était également très gentil, courtois & attentionné.

Le seul point négatif concerne la lenteur du service. Plus particulièrement, le délai entre la fin du repas & l'arrivée de la facture. Nous avons attendu environ 45 minutes avant de pouvoir payer, ce qui est tout de même assez long. Si vous choisissez ce restaurant, assurez-vous de ne pas être pressé.

Cela dit, avant de laisser une mauvaise note uniquement en raison du temps d'attente, je vous recommande de lire les autres avis. La qualité de la nourriture, l'authenticité des plats & la gentillesse du personnel méritent d'être prises en considération. Malgré ce bémol, nous avons apprécié notre expérience & la nourriture valait largement le détour.

Family owned restaurant. You can tell that there's a lot of pride that goes into the restaurant & attention to detail. The host (Ornella) is kind & welcoming. The chef puts out excellent food, delicious & very well portioned. We left there full & with leftovers to take home ( well one of my boys has bigger eyes than stomach) but nonetheless, it was AMAZING! I recommend checking it out if you want a taste of several different regions of Africa all in one place. Ornella you rock.

Djambala is AMAZING!!!! The food was so delicious I literally cried tears of joy. We had the smoked chicken peanut stew & the tilapia, & the mango crème brûlée. The service was wonderful. We felt incredibly well taken care of. They even stayed open two hours late to accommodate our date night! They just opened August 2025-a true hidden gem! Can't wait to come back!!!
