About

Restaurant L'Escape specializes in the preparation of traditional African and Caribbean culinary staples that emphasize bold spices and slow-cooked textures. The menu features a variety of authentic meat dishes seasoned with indigenous herbs, alongside hearty plantain, rice, and bean accompaniments that anchor each serving. These preparations prioritize robust flavor profiles characteristic of diverse regional cooking techniques from both continents. Diners encounter a focused selection of proteins often braised or stewed to achieve tenderness, paired with flavorful vegetable sides. The atmosphere facilitates a straightforward eating experience where the primary focus remains on the integrity of the ingredients. Consistency in preparation defines the approach, ensuring that every dish reflects established culinary practices associated with these specific food traditions through careful seasoning and heat management.

We originally planned to visit 042 Afro Lounge because I had ordered from them in the past via Uber Eats & truly loved the meal. When we called ahead, however, they kindly informed us that it is an 18+ lounge. The owner was gracious enough to direct us to this family-friendly location instead, & we are so glad they did!
The food was absolutely fantastic-I ordered the goat meat ogbono soup with pounded yam, which was rich & flavorful, while the kids enjoyed the jollof rice with jerk chicken. Everything was fresh, delicious, & cooked to perfection.
The atmosphere was quiet, clean, & lovely, making it a great environment for a family meal. The kids had a fantastic time, & the service was top-notch. Truly a wonderful experience-we will definitely be coming back!

I am very unsatisfied with this food. It was my first time eating chicken like this. It felt like it wasn't cooked properly. i've tasted jollof rice all my life & I was very disappointed. I expected better from an African place especially being an African myself.
