★★★★★ 5.0 William Adams · Mar 2025

Consistency is paramount for me, and my initial visit to this Senegalese restaurant "Les Ambassades" in 2021 during a business meeting left an indelible mark with its unforgettable fried rice, setting an unparalleled standard. Revisiting in 2023, 1 found that the restaurant's commitment to excellence remained unshaken, and their lamb dish proved that great things truly come in small spaces. My friends from Florida, sharing this delightful experience, were equally impressed. I eagerly anticipate my next visit at this remarkable restaurant.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 el querencia · May 2025

I’ve been coming here since 2013 because they have great food. Unfortunately, the pastries and the food have not been as good. The decline started when they separated the pastry shop from the restaurant area. They increased the price of everything. The pastries taste old. This eclair is soggy but expensive. The chicken is dry. There are less tables, and the tables are sticky. It’s very sad. I remember this place used to always be full of people indoors and outdoors. Their breakfast egg sandwich was unmatched. No longer the case.

I decided to trust the collective wisdom about Des Ambassades and wasn't disappointed. Enjoyable meals served with genuine friendliness. You won't need to order side dishes due to size. The workers' kind demeanor transforms routine meals into fun experiences. We plan to return very soon.

★★★★★ 5.0 Vanessa Castillo · Nov 2025

I've practiced describing their best dishes to entice friends. Just incredible flavors from start to finish. I was pleased by how attentive and polite everyone remained. This restaurant combines quality and service perfectly! This place pleases me and I'll definitely return.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Sara Anderson · Feb 2026

We went for breakfast pastries. Decent croissant and pain au chocolate -- not the best I've had, but not bad. What I didn't appreciate was that out of the 5 cinnamon raisin pastries, he gave me the most burned one. I frankly don't even think that one should have been out for sale.
