Tamara WalkerJune 1, 2014From the moment you walk in the door you know you have entered into some place special. Excellent cuisine, delectable cocktails and the nicest staff ever. The kale zinger is definitely a must have!
This place is underrated. The kale cupcakes (eggs baked in kale in muffin tins) are my go-to for brunch. Go easy on the spicy sauce, which is great but will pack a wallop. Great, green cocktails too!
Renz PeeAugust 3, 2017Went here two days ago for dinner with my family. The food from appetizer to dessert was delicious. Nice ambience, friendly and attentive service. Id return for sure ..
inna katsJuly 17, 2015The (red?) devil drink is great if you want tequila. The fish, the burger and fries, get their gorgonzola dip and in house HOT sauce. Sit at the bar, everyone's awesome.
Calamari, hummus, tuna tartare, spring-rolls, octopus salad, bread pudding and chocolate lava cake - so good- and good ambience.
Ethan NadelmannMarch 11, 2019I am pescetarian who eats fish every day. The branzino here was superb in every way, and the salmon excellent. Nice buzz, too, with good W African music mostly playing.
Spicy Poulet sandwich on ciabatta and Thiebou Jen, stewed fish & vegetables over rice. The national dish of Senegal. Great African music too.
Fries are fabulous, as is the vegetable sandwich. Salmon omelette is good but on the salty side. Staff is friendly. I love the big beautiful windows but the place can get chilly too.
Cafe Rue Dix style spring roll, shrimp ravioli, kale salad, brunch menu. Everything is very delicious!!- Jennie KimMay 6, 2014Excellent food and great atmosphere. Cocktails are delicious, try the "Kale Hemingway"- Green juice & booze makes for a happy combo. Oh and Happy hour from 4-7.
- inna katsJuly 11, 2015The bronzini is soooo good. Get rockerfort cheese dip for the fries. In house hot sauce, yummy drinks, friendly staff. DO IT
chin1taApril 12, 2017a French-Senegalese bistro on Bedford Avenue; house-made bread and Senegalese-style rice-paper spring rolls; warm, comfortably weathered space
Deep GujralApril 14, 2016The food here is amazing it's a mixture of Creole influence and African food I would really recommend going in for brunch
Great vibes and all the foods in the menu are good. Café Rue Dix burger is delicious!!!
IfeoluwaDecember 1, 2015The Kale Hemingway is green juice like you've never had before. Refreshing deliciousness with a kick of rum- Gabriel HayesSeptember 17, 2014Great for brunch and dinner. Good cocktails. The Senegalese Spring Rolls & Fataya are particularly delicious
Kate BApril 26, 2014The Nameless cocktail : vodka, cucumber, cilantro & simple syrup. Ask for half the amount of simple & it's still very good.
Julius TarngSeptember 22, 2015The Senegalese tea is some intense stuff. Tastes like wheatgrass shot. Also their huevos rancheros is definitely just chilaquiles
Brownstone Living NYCSeptember 12, 2016Thiebou Jen, Gambas a la Plancha and on a hot summer day a cucumber lemonade with vodka will do.
Channon FordOctober 21, 2016Food was great. The manager was awesome. Really great service. Will definitely return- Frank HellerSeptember 17, 2016Everything is great! Coffee is amazing! Senegalese spring rolls are delicious
Andrei KryssovJanuary 26, 2017Signature cocktail, the Kale Hemingway (white rum, green juice, lime and maraschino)
Tansy ArronMay 6, 2016The bar tender makes fantastic drinks *and* has all the trek/stargate/pokemon trivia knowledge you will ever need.
- Lears FoolJune 15, 2015The Fataya reminds me of Cajun Beef Pies. The sauce is horseradishy spicy. Delicious!
Happy hour is only for bar seats now, which is a bit of a bummer considering how nice it is to sit outside here
Bobby KennedyOctober 13, 2014The Fataya and cocktails are really good. Friendly staff and cute interior.
Rob LJune 30, 2018Chicken uncuttable and inedible. Salad nasty. Tartare delicious, vibe solid. Hit or miss overall.
Anina AhmadAugust 15, 2015Duck confit croquettes, fataya, Senegalese spring rolls, and jJalapeño Margaritas
Eduardo OrtizDecember 21, 2013Order the Fataya (beef empanadas), they are delicious. Be careful with the hot sauce!
RoOctober 14, 2018Nice ambiance until I picked up my plate and there was a baby roach greeting me. Staff didn't even bother acknowledging it when I told them either
