The 17 Best Restaurants in Dakar, Senegal | Eater

"One of the most welcoming places in Dakar, Lulu is run by two cousins, the fourth generation in various furniture trades, and the place is named for their grandmother, who fell in love with Senegal 20 years ago. The eclectic space functions as a home goods store, a cafe for breakfast and lunch, and a coworking space for locals and expats. The daily menu brings treats like a jerk chicken bowl or sauteed prawns with herbs. Check out the deli/market area too, where you’ll find jams made with seasonal fruits, cashews, sourdough, and even some salt from the famous pink Lake Retba." - Yasmine Fofana

Such a lovely spot! Lulu Cafe has a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes it a great place to relax or catch up with friends. The food selection is excellent – healthy, tasty, and caters to different dietary preferences. I also appreciate that there's a designated area for working or taking meetings, which is a thoughtful touch. Just a small note: at times, the music from the other room can seep through and be a bit distracting for those trying to focus or join online calls. Otherwise, a fantastic spot and definitely worth visiting!

My husband and I visited for a bite to eat. The atmosphere was bright and beautiful with high ceilings, good music and attentive service. The food was good. Me being a vegan, it would be great to have the choice of oat or almond milk for my coffee. I was able to buy sourdough bread at the bakery and browse through the accessories, books and furniture. Overall, it was a fine experience

Customer service is terrible, seems like the waitresses and waiters are purposely ignoring you or avoiding eye contact when you’re trying to get their attention and when you do it’s as if you’re bothering them. There’s two women that work here in particular that always have an attitude, one is always being condescending and the other one barely speaks any French so you can’t even communicate with her and she’s given me wrong information multiple times. One time I spilled my juice by accident and asked for a refill and I feel like any restaurant with decent customer service would give you a complimentary refill but not only did the employee I requested one from never return forcing me to go to the front and ask for another drink, but I was also charged for the second drink which was already pretty overpriced.

I can't be objective talking to this place cause to be honest, it's one of my fav place in Dakar😭❤️🫰🏾 Never disappointed with the food, it's a calm and inspiring place, like you can stay all day long there and not feeling the time past by...

Cafe has a menu fused with both traditional and innovative fare. Everything from noodles to roasted fish. Multiple different daily specials are offered. Juices and drinks (non-caffeinated and caffeinated) are excellent. Nice relaxing atmosphere with inside/outside dinning that is somewhat melded into the associated store. Recommend for a great lunch spot.

Such an awesome hip place in the very cool city that Dakar is. The food is good and is organic. The portions are decent. The price are a little high for Dakar, but in reality they are in line with other cafés of its class. If you are in Dakar for the first time, this café should be at the top of your priority list.
