Grin

I recently purchased a bottle of natural milk from Le Grin African Restaurant, expecting a fresh and high-quality product. Unfortunately, my experience was nothing short of disappointing and concerning. When I opened the bottle and took a sip, the milk tasted absolutely terrible—clearly spoiled. Trying to understand what went wrong, I checked the expiration date on the label, only to find something shocking. The original expiration date was clearly January 20, 2025, but someone had manually altered it to March 20, 2025, using handwriting. It was obvious that the date had been tampered with in an attempt to make it seem like the product was still good. This is completely unethical and dangerous. Selling expired dairy products by simply changing the expiration date is not only deceptive but also a serious health hazard. Consuming spoiled milk can cause food poisoning, and I find it unacceptable that a business would risk the health of its customers like this. I am beyond disappointed. This is a serious food safety issue that should not be ignored. If a business cannot ensure the quality and freshness of the products they sell, they should not be selling them at all. I strongly urge other customers to double-check expiration dates on perishable products from this restaurant before purchasing. Le Grin African Restaurant needs to immediately address this issue. Selling expired food with falsified expiration dates is unacceptable and a major violation of customer trust. I will not be buying from here again unless they take full responsibility and make sure this never happens again

We ordered our office lunch from Grin today, we truly Enjoyed this wonderful catering, especially the GIGO (lamb shank), DIBI (chicken) and GARBA (fried seasoned tuna) everything is So delicious! We have colleagues who are from western Africa, also some are of Africa decent, they all approved the food as authentic! For the rest of us, we are just grateful and Enjoyed very much this wonderful lunch from Grin! We highly recommended.

Guys, believe me the food there is great! Ok, let's put it this way: it is not a restaurant in the way you are used to - it is pretty small but for people who appreciate tasty and good priced food - there is a place to be! Salad, fish, chicken - everything is delicious and the portions are enormous! Owners are smiling and friendly. What would you ask more?!

The food was amazing! I had the dibi chicken, rice and plantains and the grilled croaker. Everything was cooked to perfection and delicious! I will definitely be back for more!

I just went there. The girls over there are sooooo disrespectful. Like I was shocked how she talked to customers . Just because we wanted to pay with Zelle , which they normally accept. We were talking to her, She turned back and went to the kitchen without even minding us

My first time trying African food, it was soo good, got the dibi chicken & couscous w onion sauce

I give a 3-4 ⭐ to the chicken ONLY" but the Attiéké is Nasty No flavor, Dry and i ordered it with chicken they put the chicken seperated so the Attiéké stays dry with No flavor and Cold, i also feel like i got over charged it cost me $15. Smh i don't know if I'ma come back if i do I'm NEVER going to order Chicken Attiéké,

The customer service is really bad , not welcoming, I don’t really advise you to go there.

I was trying to find something different to eat. So I thought ok, this should do. I ordered grilled with with plantains. Smh, the first was really small. She told me it's tilapia. The smallest I've ever seen. Secondly, the hot sauce tasted like it's spoiled. The fish had no taste, even after add a lot of hot sauce. The onion seasoning was worse. I've had grilled fish from African restaurants before, mainly from Harlem. But this right here is foul. It was so nasty, I almost vomited. The plantains were hard as rocks. I thought they were rocks. I had to throw it outside in the basement for the rats to it. Did not want to put it in the garbage. The fish I didn't finish it, I had to give it to the pigeons outside. And this is my first and last time I'm going here. I'll drive all the way to Harlem and get grill fish form there. I want to give it a half star or no star, but that's impossible. So here goes the unjustified one star for very bad and crappy food, no taste.

OMG, I can't believe this place still has no reviews on Yelp! Guys, believe me the food there is great! Ok, let's put it this way: it is not a restaurant in the way you are used to - it is pretty small but for people who appreciate tasty and good priced food - there is a place to be! Salad, fish, chicken - everything is delicious and the portions are enormous! Owners are smiling and friendly. What would you ask more?!

i was looking for a african restaraunt to eat at while in nyc. i found this place and went with my girl and was surprised at how much of that good west african food they gave us. spicy chicken, plantains, fried fish, and kous-kous. it was delicious especially the spicy chicken with salad. we took the food back to our airbnb and ate it for 2days. we spent 15 each for our individual meal with a side.
