Harlem Ambassador

They have renovated yet again! Let's hope that Fish patties and Lamb shank stay on the menu. It reflects the mix of Afro\Franco\American that this place has come to rep. Many fine pastries and cafes .

Make your presence known immediately when you first come in. Make sure your order is clear before and after you receive it. You will enjoy your meal. I received the correct croissant this time.

The Corcoran Group

We love to stop in here for a quick Egg Sandwich , the best Almond Croissant and a coffee . If you want to have a more formal meal, try the Yoff Kebab or the Grilled Lamb Chops .

Gayla Best

OMG!!!! That's all i have to say. This place is AMAZING! Lambshanks are to die for. Melt in your mouth deliciousness! I will be back there very soon. I hope the Chef is working on that cookbook

West African food in Harlem, but of course! waitstaff and their accents, aroma of deliciousness and pleasant surprises on the menu! Choose your liking at the moment.

Tasha Mulrain

I love the food here. Everything smells great as soon as you walk in. The fact that it's self serve is also a plus. I can really see myself coming here again.

Sheena LaShay

The food was ridiculously amazing. Service is a tad but slow but the food more than makes up for it. And the prices are fair . Get the grilled tilapia . Your life will be better.

Tresa Chambers

Had chicken kebabs , salad and plantains . All delish. Kebabs came with an onion sauce that had great flavor. Server suggested ordering the sauce warm next time. I will.

Kat Yu

The tagine was delicious, as was the peanut stew . Also, the pepper spread is yummy with the bread , but eat it sparingly, and with the mayonnaise - it's really hot!

Foad Torshizi

The steak au poivre was really small and extra-well-done, while we asked for medium rare. Crème brûlée was small too for $5.5. The lamb chop , however, is really good and sizable.

DeShaun Harris

My s.o. and I love this spot. Grilled lamb chops are best & come in a huge portion size (we split it) Unfortunately for my waistline, it costs only $12 so it's hard to resist having it too often :-)

Fatima Esanwa

The grilled lamb chops and shrimp kebab were amazing. If you love spicy food , this is the place for you.. go Senegalese !

Serious Eats

A popular neighborhood restaurant and boulangerie with great croissants , pastry , and outdoor seating .

LAN

I've only had their lamb shawarma because its one of the top shawarmas I have had! Right up there with Mamouns on MacDougal st, but a more wrapped up neat style to it

Jamil Toure

Awesome "real" French bakery & cafe owned by Senegalese family. #Buttery, crispy , ethereal croissants .. almond , chocolate , plain.. authentically delicious! Not bad coffee either.

Loida Valentin

One of many great visits. Keep an eye on the specials and visit the bakery next door.

Crystal McBrady

French toast , almond croissant , croquet madame. Get it all.

Marty Mar

Wow this coffee is amazing. Ordered the lamb sausage sandwich and was equally blown away. Has to be a serious Harlem Top 5

Erica

Adorable and a great place to people watch from the sidewalk seating .

Yanzy Bear

Sorry no pic. Les sandwich #lambmerguez was so good. Just the right portion..

Marcus Samuelsson

My first tip on foursquare: Great Senegalese place for a quick bite . Try the Robespierre sandwich with lamb and put the hot souse on the side. Read more

Nicholas Garber

Great french croissants and espresso , excellent Senegalese food! Try it!

Kirsten K. Kester

Great food..! Nice service. A bit cramped if entering with a wheelchair; but manageable...

Keilon Lawrence

They make a pretty good burger .

New York Dog Nanny

Nice outdoor space to bring your dog with.

George

lamb sandwich is to die for. great cupcakes too. Brought my s.o. here once for lamb chops , she loved them!

Erica

Service is pretty awful, but it's a great place if you want to sit and relax for a while (while your server ignores you)!

Abdoulaye Dieng

Great food, people and place

Taylor Marsh

almond croissant , turkey & cheese croissant

Nabeel

Best pastries around. Almond croissant is always a good decision

Ms. Dee Bell

I don't know why I waited so long to try this place. I'd heard they have great coffee and croissants but the service left something to be desired. The coffee was great as was fresh squeezed OJ . Slow.

Citizen X

Careful, West African food is sometimes very spicy while being very delicious at the same time.

Craig Thompson

Try the Almond Chocolate Croissant - THE best croissants !

amrig
