Stayed at the hotel and also the restaurant. On Saturday they had a professional Senegalese singer with his guitar singing American oldies (as well as some Senegalese songs I didn't know) and it was excellent. The food at this hotel was also very good, especially (and surprisingly) the pizza!
The hotel was just OK. I've stayed in better and I've also stayed in worse. It had mosquitoes and no bednet, and there was no door or curtain for the shower, but I suppose this is typical of hotel showers in Senegal. There was a mini-fridge in the room which I never used along with free wi-fi and air condition.
Service was excellent by both Waitstaff and hotel staff. I also received an amazing hotel exchange rate from the hotel owner when I changed US dollars to West African francs. There is also an amazing nightclub less than a block away from the hotel that will leave me with great memories for many years to come.

Also known as Auberge Restaurant. I stayed here for three weeks and between coworkers and I, ate almost everything on the menu. Nothing short of fantastic. Very clean, safe, quiet atmosphere, and excellent, excellent food. Choose items at will and you will be satisfied. Favorite is Turkey cutlet. Please save room for dessert, and try the ice cream balls fried in batter and covered with chocolate. Can't remember French name, but is a must-have!! Also recommend the spaghetti bolognese, monk fish, and yassa poulet, but the entire menu is amazing. Dinner served til 2200 (10 pm).
Should also be noted that this is a hotel/bed and breakfast. 12 very comfortable, QUIET rooms with inviting rooftop Terrace and included continental breakfast. No TV in room but wifi is good. TV on rooftop. Very reasonable prices for both rooms and food -- you can eat drink and stay for less than USD$100 per day. However, must speak at least a little French or your experience will be a bit challenging. Google Translate is a life saver!

I went to this restaurant with two friends during a recent visit to Senegal. I ordered a fruit salad from the menu. The photo displayed showed a fruit salad with strawberries and cherries among other things and looked delicious. When it eventually arrived, my 'fruit salad' contained 90% apple with a few bits of pineapple and what looked like the scrapings of a tin of mixed fruit. I complained to the waiter and said I didn't expect to pay the full price as what I was served bore no resemblance to the photo on the menu. However, when the bill arrived, I was charged the full price of 1800 francs. I then asked to see the manager and addressed my complaint to her. First she said it was fruits of the season - which was complete rubbish because there was no banana or mango in the fruit salad. When I pointed out the picture on the menu, she said, they never served it like that and nobody else had complained. She refused to reduce the price and made it clear that she couldn't care less about my complaint. When I told her I would be writing a report for Trip Advisor, she merely shrugged her shoulders. They have no idea of customer satisfaction in this restaurant. The service was slow and off-hand.
My friends were happy with their food, but I was fuming when I left the place. I am told that another restaurant along the street, Les Délices, would have been a better bet. I certainly won't go here on my next visit.

Salle décorée sommairement, service d’une lenteur incroyable (je parle du rythme de la serveuse), accueil souriant
La carte est trop chargée mais pas d’inquiétude il n’y a pas tout...
Yasa plutôt bon et bien épicé
Les burger sont correct
Pour l’endroit où vous êtes profitez, il n’y a rien jusque saint Louis

I had the privilege to meet the local Rotary Club and get to know them while distributing clothes to a local village. Then we returned for drinks and pizza. Good place with air conditioned meeting rooms upon request and covered outdoor dining. Great service and great food.
