A genius fusion of French sophistication and African hospitality . This place has personality and style. Mussels are tasty and ample. Wine options are perfect. Broad banquettes near windows for viewing

The service was slighty slow but Lobster BLT , Maple Crusted French Toast , Truffle Macaroni & Cheese and Fresh Seasonal Fruit coupled with the ambiance made up for it. I'll definitely be back.

Alexandra Jenkins

Delicious burger and chicken parm , also calamari . I also had a very smooth martini . Some of the best service I've ever seen, from each and every waiter to the owner. Definitely try this place!

“Sparking your taste buds”, these all-day hangouts offer “original” French-Senegalese dishes livened up with African spices and “charming” service; they're also “well priced”

Heather

Love this Harlem oasis and its vibrant flavors! Can't go wrong with anything but stuffed flounder is a must.

Nuff

Solid happy hour menu with small plates (sliders and wings are delicious) and house special martinis .

Don't miss the Ponty burger and Ponty martini with the edible flower. The pancakes were also delicious, thin with just the right amount of crispiness around the edge.

I think we do Ponty Bistro a diservice limiting the restaurant to saying African restaurant , this is international and it's so apparent even in staffing, it's really good.

Mikell

The Lobster bites are mandatory. The bar service always interesting with the influx of various European bar persons :-)

Patrick Castelo

Great service and food. I will come back for sure.

Akiko Bombita

Great music and ambiance. Cous cous , spinach and haricot vert are tasty sides. Chocolate cake was ok.

Tonie Wan

Scrumptious African spiced mussels > disappointing lobster BLT
