    THE BEST ATTIEKE IN ABIDJAN!!! I hope that was convincing enough. No but really you need to try this place. Everything is so fresh and made to order. We asked for - Crispy, spicy, saucy and extra grilled. They are generous with their servings of everything and have so many condiments - all fresh as well. Pima pate, sauce tomat, lots and lots of seasoned spicy onions drizzled over everything. The meats were cooked fried and braised to perfection. I highly recommend trying this atleast once - it's not the cheapest or cleanest maquis but it's worth it.

    Good food. Don't go there if you are looking for fancy. Small prices and friendly staff.

    As local as it could be. The food is good and cooked very well. The waiters are friendly but don't speak English. To visit, the restaurant area is transformed in soccer field for kids playing after lunch.

    Live music open air venue and sandy so best to wear flats. Food is fresh. Does get busy. Inexpensive. Great for families and groups. Toilets are a let down.

    (Translated by Google) For my first experience I didn't like it at all. I heard about it and I couldn't wait to taste Ambroise's dishes ... unfortunately I was disappointed. 2 hours of waiting for a burnt and bitter chicken with a waiter whose hygiene leaves something to be desired. I'm not being mean but I wish you were more observant on this aspect. I didn't at all, and didn't like it at all. Thank you (Original) Pour ma première expérience j'ai pas du tout apprécié. J'ai entendu parlé et j'avais hâte de déguster les mets de Ambroise... malheureusement je fus déçue. 2 heures d'attente pour un poulet cramé et amer avec un serveur dont l'hygiène laisse à désirer. Je ne pas être méchante mais je souhaiterais que vous soyez plus regardant sur ce aspect. J'ai pas du tout, et pas du tout apprécié. Merci

    The foods are great... Nothing to say... The atmosphere is great... Apart from the old European tourists with very young ladies.,offering a discussing spectacle of pauvrety because there is no way love is involved. Anyway, not judging, but if this was in my country I would call police on these tourists for engaging with underages.

    Don't miss their natural juices, I especially like the pineapple one. The grilled sole fish is delicious. It is a great experience of a maquis in Abidjan. Make sure you have enough money with you 🙂

  • 5/5 Kofi A. 2 years ago on Google
    One of my famous sit out anytime I am in Abidjan. The fish, food, the passion fruit juice, and the free bitters! Will always send back there.

    If you would like to try local dishes without too much protocol and formalities that's the place to go. However foods might take a while to come out.

    (Translated by Google) There are many "maquis" in Côte d'Ivoire (like maquis, a local tavern and tavern). It is the largest Maki in Abidjan and has many outdoor tables. Meat and fish are baked over charcoal, so it takes time to serve. That said, this is not a high-class starred restaurant, so wait patiently while gazing at the flames and the night sky. Local beer and French wine are also available at reasonable prices, so if you tilt the glass, time will pass immediately. You may be concerned about hygiene, but the ingredients are fresh and the seasoning is satisfactory. The staff are friendly and the toilets are clean (although you can't sit down because there is no toilet seat like other shops ...). (Original) コートジボワールに数多く存在する「マキ」(maquis、地元の大衆食堂兼酒場、居酒屋のようなもの)。アビジャンのマキの中では最大規模で、多くの屋外テーブルが用意されています。 炭火により肉、魚を焼き上げるので、提供までに時間が掛かります。とは言え、こちらはハイクラスな星付きレストランではありませんので、炎を眺めたり、夜空を見上げたりしながら気長に待ちましょう。ローカルビールやフランスワインも良心的な価格で揃ってますので、グラスを傾けていれば直ぐに時が経ちます。 なお、衛生面での心配をするかも知れませんが、食材は新鮮で味付けも満足できます。スタッフはフレンドリーでトイレも清潔です(他の一般店と同様に便座はないので、腰掛けられませんが…)。

    (Translated by Google) Here they call it a maquis, a kind of popular little restaurant. Don't expect 5 star service and impeccable hygiene. Possibility to choose your fish and reasonable prices, the cocktails are excellent and the fruits pressed on site (Original) Ici ils appellent ça un maquis, un genre de petit restau populaire.
