This hole-in-the-wall restaurant serves amazing food (special shout out for the fish pastels) and they are more than generous with their portions. You’ll have a great experience if you come here for a meal

The food was really good! We got the baked fish with jollof rice, the okra and the beignets. The fish especially was a standout. And the beignets not overpoweringly sweet.
New York is the hub for a plethora of international cuisines. Senegalese food is one of my favorites, and Joloff is where I go to experience it. I have been coming here and bringing visiting guests, for years. The food is delicious, the staff friendly and the ambiance will make you feel like you've been transported to Senegal!

Been coming here for years since their original location on Fulton Street. Watched Their daughters grow up behind the register into beautiful ladies and the food hasn’t changed. Great and fulfilling as usual. The atmosphere is is clean and authentic. New location could easily be missed if not paying attention. A must go for good Senegalese food.
DELICIOUS senegalese food — it was our first time trying it and it did not disappoint! Staff was very sweet and lots of love was clearly put into the food, which was very hearty and flavorful! The decor is charming as well; the colorful walls, portraits, and entertainment area are a great addition to surround the food.

I feel like I’m going crazy. This food looks amazing, but if this is the same restaurant that caters Dance Africa, then something is wrong! No joloff rice, and some mayo tasting chopped chicken wrapped in a white flour tortilla. This was the only African cuisine at the festival that I could see, such a disappointment
