“We ordered for pick up, it was our first time ordering from this restaurantWe ordered•thiebou yapp - rice with lamb it was a lot of meat (generous amount )and my picky child enjoyed the meal, im glad it wasn’t spicy because I prefer the spicy paste on the side.we rate the meal 8/10 according to our picky eater child ?• yassa- chicken with onions- I enjoyed it, however it was just a overly oily ?? not sure if it’s supposed to be that way. If it wasn’t too oily I will rate it 8/10Will definitely come back for the thiebou yapp with extra spicy paste on the side.We were not able to take picture on our take out due to hunger ?“

“Great menu and friendly service! I pretty little restaurant. No major complaints except I wish they would have served bread with meal or maybe a bit more potatoes with the dish! I was still hungry after my meal but it was delicious! I want to come back, and try more things on the menu. Everything looks really good, Drinks and dessert were also good! I had ordered dessert with seamless prior to my first visit, and they were quick!“

“What would a nice Jewish boy from the Bronx know about Senegalese food? Enough to know a FANTASTIC restaurant when he eats in one. Africa Kine's Dibe Mutton--marinated, spiced lamb chops--are simply off-the-charts. Also wonderful is the Pintade, which in Union Square Market is called "guinea fowl" and sells for $20/lb.It is as though an entire chicken were dark meat, and at Africa Kine it is roasted to perfection. And the whole fried snapper was delectable. Order two entrees for three people, because portions here are very generous. Did I mention the Joloff rice? It is magnificent. The dining room of the restaurant is simple and homey, and you see families, and girls' night out, and some men eating alone, all in a welcoming space that feels like a tavern, minus the alcohol. All three times I visited my waiter was the astute Papui (I am not spelling it correctly) whose bouncing braids crown a very smart head and a megawatt smile. He contributes no small part to what gives you the feeling you have discovered a great place at Africa Kine. Now if I could just learn to pronounce Ngalakh. HIghly recommended.“

“Absolutely delicious! Came twice in a span of 5 days. This is a hidden gem that l wish l knew about sooner. Portions are insane, the taste is authentic and fresh and it feels like you’re eating straight from a Senegalese home. 100% recommend. Prices are unmatchable on top of that.“

“Nice restaurant, the food is delicious and the people are nice.My friends took me there to eat after my graduation ceremony. Guess what the manager surprised me with an envelope that says congratulations from Jacob’s team. $100 in the envelope. I was shocked, I almost cry…Thank you to the all team??❤️.“

“If you want a fully authentic experience tasting some of the best cuisine of West Africa, check out this restaurant. We make it an annual trip each year we visit NYC AND it's always hot and delicious. If you're looking for a fancy set up, this is not your stop. Walking into New Ivoire transports you to a small cafe in Abidjan, the smells and sounds of French and Bambara mixing among the patrons. We pwere warmly graded by the owner and a table is found for us quickly in the small crowded room that made up New Ivoire. We had attiéke with fried fish and the ever present staple of fresh onions and tomatoes, along with dried okra sauce and plakali (similar to fufu see the photo) and salad. The salad was dressed in a light and delicious vinaigrette. The soup was beautifully flavored and complimented the sour taste of the plakali beautifully. If you go to a restaurant such as this one, and you are not from the continent of Africa, you are a guest in this space. Keep this in mind as you enjoy this small sanctuary for Ivorians and other West Africans to appreciate a bit of home in NYC.“

“What an awesome place. Every dish was served perfectly. We had a happy accident where we got the whole fried fish and I just had to unbutton my pants. And the music is a vibe. I would get up and dance at my table if I wasn’t about to roll away. I’m stuffed. Wait, what’s for dessert?“

“I happened to be walking by on Sunday so stopped in for lunch. I’m so glad I did - this place is awesome! I haven’t had much West African food but it was all very flavorful and well prepared. They have a number of sets you can order that come with a meat and a couple sides - I went with the yassa grilled chicken and it was delicious. It’s in the African cultural center and I found the space really nice abd decorated with beautiful photography. I’ll be back!“
