The popular opinion seemed suspect until my own experience confirmed it. This place combines strategic location, helpful people, and fair prices. The flavors are clean and natural. The manager is professional and friendly. This spot deserves continued patronage.

This spot combines easy access with warm welcomes. The kitchen output and surroundings were excellent. They maintain their quality reliably. My dining routine now features this spot. This place contributes to local identity.

This place serves food that I could crave on a weekly schedule. The team shows exceptional pleasantness and flexibility, with prompt meal service. The dishes are outstanding. Our order allowed everyone to try multiple dishes. I certainly plan to return soon.

Best African food around! If you know how to order, you’re in for a true gift! I usually get the poisson braise (grilled fish) with attieke (“acheke” or ground cassava) and aloko (sweet plantains). Enjoy!

This place does not have a clean kitchen. I received my food with a dead fly in it.

La Savane d'Afrique is serving some of the most delicious dishes from western sub saharan Africa with the attieké, alloco, multiple types of grilled meat, and fish.
The food was absolutely delicious. The service by Zeinab was nothing short of exceptional. A better job could be done with the wine list, but that's another topic. They do offer some cocktails. They environment is clean and well decorated. I recommend this place the next time you go to Harlem.
