LE PARIS DAKAR — Restaurant in New York

Tucked away on Frederick Douglass Boulevard, Le Paris Dakar is a cozy Senegalese-French café that took me completely by surprise. It’s a small, charming spot with a soft, jazzy vibe and a menu that blends West African flavors with classic French pastries.

I came here for brunch on a whim and ordered the chicken yassa crêpe — a creative spin on the traditional Senegalese dish. The chicken was tender, marinated in lemon and onion sauce, and wrapped in a perfectly thin, buttery crêpe. It was both hearty and delicate.

Their baobab juice was another revelation — slightly sweet, citrusy, and packed with antioxidants. For dessert, I had their homemade mango tart, which had a flaky crust and just the right level of sweetness.

The service is personal and warm. The owners often work the counter and are happy to share stories behind each dish. Prices are reasonable, and the quality is top-notch. This place feels like a local secret, and I’ll definitely...

Best crepes I've ever had!!! Found this amazing café after taking a dance class across the street at Cumbe. We were looking for a nice place to have a bite to eat and Le Paris Dakar was recommended. It's a very nicely designed place with a warm vibe. The staff was super super friendly and you can tell that they really cared. Mr. GB (I believe that was his name) was attentively making a nutella crepe was unreal. I grew up in France and these crepes were the best I ever had, truly. Delicious, texture was amazing. My mom and I had a great time here. Also had the apple turnover, the ginger pineapple juice which was great too. My only regret is not getting a second crepe for the road! Will be back. Thank you and congrats on an amazing...

First and last time in this place, I had a very bad experience. I ordered a smoothie and a mushroom cheese crepe and when I ate my crepe I almost broke my teeth on the mushroom. A food that I have never seen before, I don't know what chemicals are used to cook but seeing the appearance of the vegetable it inspires no confidence. I reported the problem to the staff of the place and they didn't seem surprised, they didn't find any reason to justify the problem. I threw the crepe away on the front of them because it was inedible and they did not deign to make a commercial gesture or anything else. They have no problem letting go of a customer who is disappointed with their food. I do not recommend this place if you want to avoid...
