    Casa Teranga is a wonderful restaurant! Serving a variety of delicious vegetarian dishes, the staff and beautiful setting on the beach are great.

    Edited to add that this was the best vegan pizza I’ve ever had, and a great pizza even in comparison to non-vegan pizzas. Highly recommend! I was excited to try Dakars newest vegan restaurant. I went twice-the first time to try the Buddha Bowl and the second time for a vegan mafé. I appreciated that both dishes were well balanced and healthy. But both could use some tweaking for more flavor. Casa Terangas sustainability is admirable and the place itself is stunning. Lots of pros: diverse menu, beautiful decorations, and kind staff.

    Highly recommend! If you’re looking for authentic Wolof Senegalese food that’s vegan this is the place. As a sustainable traveler, I really appreciate their emphasis on zero waste and no plastics. Location is right in the heart of Almadies on the beach with an unbeatable view of sunset. I will always come back to Casa Teranga when in Dakar.

    Casa Teranga is hands down my best restaurant experience as a vegan in Dakar (and maybe anywhere). After starting to follow them online even before I moved to the city, and enjoying their updates, I visited the restaurant on their soft launch day, feeling excited like a kid on Christmas Eve. Everything about the place was wonderful. First, the setting. I had seen the pictures and videos online, but I still had a huge smile on my face as I walked up the colorful stairs and discovered the gorgeous outdoor space, and the incredible view. Casa Teranga offers one of the most picturesque settings I've seen in Dakar so far. Then, the people. The owners were very nice and friendly, and it was a pleasure to chat with them. It really felt like I was visiting friends for an evening at their place, and I enjoyed how welcoming everyone was. We also share a lot of values, and I admire their emphasis on zero-waste cooking, whole food ingredients, recycling, and overall cooking and eating in a way that doesn't harm the planet (or animals, obviously). And of course, the food! I didn't take any pictures, eager as I was to try it, but it was beautiful and delicious. I went with a friend and we shared a bit of each other's plate. I got the jollof bowl, while she got the hummus bowl, and both were great. What I loved about it was that it really tasted like a home-cooked meal, with fresh, local ingredients, but also that the dishes were balanced. No starch overload like it's often the case in vegan restaurants, but a generous combination of cereals, legumes, and veggies. Highly, highly recommended!

    Vegan / vegetarian restaurant with Senegalese and international dishes. I came twice to try vegan versions of local dishes, both were excellent. Great place looking over the sea and the owners and staff were very friendly

    My favorite vegan spot in all of Dakar. All of the food is amazing and I highly recommend going around lunch time. There's a beautiful view of the ocean. And it's only about a half hour from downtown.

    Wow, Cafe Teranga was amazing! Amazing decor and a beautiful view. Definitely catered to tourists. I had the Jollof rice bowl and my husband the Ashanti bowl. The portions are huuuuge so come hungry! Lovely thought-out ingredients and balanced flavored profiles. Vegan or not this spot hits all the right notes. The service involved minimal interaction but the ambiance and food made up for it. One our favorite meals in Dakar!

    Elisabetta and Bachir are an Italian-Senegalese couple that opened this little vegan gem couple of months ago. And everything is delicious, from the jollof rice with alloco chips to the vegan mafé and niebé bowl. Highly recommended! The view is incredible and Elisabetta and Bachir are super nice and friendly. Great to know that there’s finally a real vegan restaurant in Dakar! I’ll be back for sure. Last but not least: also pet-friendly! :)

    Finding vegan dishes has been a bit challenging here so a simple menu that’s clear with flavorful options is huge. Located right on the water with a lovely staff and large portions this meal held me down for the day.

    Me and my girlfriend ordered the vegan jollof bowl. Both of us loved it. It was a perfect mix of veggies, sauce, and the most delicious jollof. Also: the owner and staff were lovely, friendly people. I recommend this place 100%.

    Casa Teragna is the perfect spot to enjoy the ocean and eat the freshest food in Dakar. Great hummus bowls, pizza and drinks. The staff is very friendly and the view of the ocean is unbeatable.

    The chill spot that Point Almadies regulars were waiting for. The higher vantage point (second floor terrace), is a definite bonus. Bruschetta was delicious. I hope they bring in Senegalese beer at some point (grand Gazelle… why not?) Update, April 2023: I was perplexed to find nearly all tables “reserved” at lunch time, even though we arrived at 12:15. Not sure I’ll venture there for lunchtime again. Or do I just “reserve”? Hm.

    First of all, it's about time!!! 🙌🏾 I had the pleasure of trying CASA TERANGA last week. The food was amazing and the staff was super friendly. The experience was perfect overlooking the water with vibrant colors on the inside. I had the jollof bowl. Met the owners and will definitely be back again before I leave Senegal. Be sure to check them out!

😠 Horrible service and not so good food. Waitresses are lazy and rude, and meat served is not always fresh. Quality of restaurant has dropped with new ownership as current owner focuses more on decor and marketing. Only good thing about this restaurant is the location.
