West African Restaurants in New Orleans, LA

“This was probably our favorite dining experience in New Orleans, which is saying something! We ate here our first evening in the city and it was a great way to kick off our vacation. This truly is a next-level dining experience, not just a meal. The restaurant is in a small historic house near the Garden District and it’s a lovely quaint atmosphere. My husband and I opted for the communal seating experience and we had great conversations with our fellow diners. Each course was presented well, with a description from our waitstaff, and while it is 7 courses, it isn’t too much food at all. Cocktails are quite good too (we skipped the wine pairing). Definitely not an everyday dinner, but 100% worth the splurge!“

“I have had the fish with beans and rice. It was delicious and reminded me of how my grandmother used onions and mustard. It’s been a long time and this meal sent me back to childhood. Let’s talk about the fufu and egusi . I’ve had it in Houston before and I wasn’t too excited about it but Ndindy has me wanting to eat fufu every day now. I always order thru Uber eats but I will be sitting in as soon as I get a date ? Oh I forgot! It would be nice if the fufu was an option for more dishes not just the egusi“
