    Was looking for places to eat in the local area and this place popped up. They are serving all the local Congolese dishes with a lot of variety and their serving size is tooo much for one person. Must try

    A True Congolese Culinary Delight at Chez Flore: Generous Portions and Authentic Flavors I recently had the pleasure of dining at Chez Flore, a hidden gem nestled in the heart of Kinshasa. This charming restaurant not only captured my heart with its warm ambiance but also left me in awe with its generous serving portions of local dishes at remarkably reasonable prices. Upon entering Chez Flore, I was greeted by a friendly staff that immediately made me feel welcome. The cozy atmosphere, coupled with tasteful decor that celebrated Congolese culture, set the perfect stage for an unforgettable dining experience. One aspect that truly stood out during my visit was the sheer size of the portions. Each dish was served in an impressive quantity that seemed tailor-made for sharing with friends and family. As I sat down and scanned through the menu, I couldn't help but appreciate the value for money that Chez Flore offers. They have mastered the art of delivering ample servings without compromising on quality or flavor. The menu at Chez Flore boasts a delectable range of local delicacies, showcasing the diverse flavors of Congolese cuisine. From the rich and savory stews to the perfectly grilled meats and vibrant vegetarian options, every dish was an authentic representation of the region's culinary heritage. The flavors were robust, the spices were well-balanced, and the ingredients were fresh and locally sourced. I must mention that the portion sizes at Chez Flore are so generous that it would be wise to bring along some company to fully indulge in the gastronomic extravaganza. I found myself pleasantly surprised by the quantity of food presented on my plate, and while I enjoyed every bite, it was clear that the portions were designed to be shared. So gather your friends, family, or colleagues and prepare for a feast that will leave you more than satisfied. If you're looking for an authentic dining experience in Kinshasa, I highly recommend paying a visit to Chez Flore. Its warm ambiance, reasonable prices, and jaw-dropping portion sizes make it a perfect destination for those seeking to explore Congolese cuisine with a group of friends or family. Just remember to bring your appetite and prepare for a truly memorable feast!

    Chez Flore is a really nice place in Kinshasa. Nice garden and gazebos, the food is delicious. Good service although on weekends when it's busy, it takes some time to get the food. The fish liboke was delicious

    One of the highly recommended local menu restaurants in Kinshasa. It’s not far from the city center and located at a safe place. They serve food under hygienic conditions. A great place to taste local Kinshasa food.

    (Translated by Google) Really below my expectations. It's just a "malewa 2.0". The waiting time for the service is endless. Almost two hours to be served. The service is not quality and the worst is the swarm of flies which you have to fight to protect your food from germs. In the end, not the expected experience especially since I made the mistake of bringing the children there. There is, indeed, NOTHING to distract them during the endless wait. The meal? Not famous. Unspicy and bland food. At the end I had to wait almost 20min for the dedicated waitress to bring the bill. It feels like taken hostage! My impression: disappointed! I would never return. Pity. (Original) Vraiment en dessous de mes attentes. C'est juste un "malewa 2.0". Le temps d'attente pour le service est interminable. Près de deux heures pour être servi. Le service n'est pas de qualité et le pire c'est l'essaim de mouches contre lequel il faut se battre pour préserver sa nourriture des germes. Au final, pas l'expérience attendue surtout que j'ai fait l'erreur d'y amener les enfants. Il n'y a, en effet RIEN pour les distraire pendant l'attente interminable. Le repas? Pas fameux. Nourriture non épicé et fade. A la fin j'ai dû attendre près de 20min pour que la serveuse dédiée deigne amener l'addition. On se croirait pris en otage ! Mon impression : déçu ! je n'y reviendrait plus. Dommage.

    Lovely local meals. Ish is that is not a place for one person.. They serve the food in huge quantities and portions so if u go alone, you would have to pack more than half the food home.

Avec ce petit plus, on vous donne le reste du plat commandé dans un bocal pour l'emporter chez vous 😋

    (Translated by Google) Food galore for a ridiculous price. But big effort to make in terms of cleanliness of the place. Trees have no place! (Original) La bouffe à gogo pour un prix dérisoire. Mais gros effort à faire en terme de propreté du lieu. Les arbres n'y ont pas leur place!

  • 3/5 Barrett N. 5 years ago on Google
    I think this place is trying to be the 'go to' for local food but to me it was a big let down. Portions are big, prices are fair, but flavors are bland.

  • 1/5 isabella 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Really disappointed we had the chicken ravioli dry the chicken gone missing only tiny pieces could put on the track. The raw vegetables soft all with little taste. The third guest chose a vegan lentil dish and other vegetables better cooked at home. More than an hour on the spot for a lunch do not be in a hurry. To conclude the kitchen is a job that the boss does not control. We will not come back (Original) Vraiment déçues nous avons pris les ravioles au poulet étaient sèches le poulet porté disparu seuls de minuscules morceaux pouvaient mettre sur la piste. Les légumes crus mous le tout avec peu de goût. La troisième convive a choisi un plat vegan lentilles et autres légumes mieux cuisinés à la maison. Plus d une heure sur place pour un midi il ne faut pas être pressé. Pour conclure la cuisine est un métier que la patronne ne maîtrise pas. On ne reviendra pas

    (Translated by Google) Good food but too many people where the slowdown in service (Original) Bonne bouffe mais trop de personne d'où le ralentissement du service

  • 4/5 mip 2 years ago on Google
    A place with a very nice atmosphere. A lot of locals come to there with their children so it is a very family friendly place. The service is rather slow but functional. Definitely not the place for vegetarians but if you are a pescatarian you will have a lot of food options. The dishes are rather big.

  • 1/5 Johnel N. 1 year ago on Google
    First of all, I read the reviews and most of them are really accurate. I ordered smoked chicken and to be honest, what I was served was nothing like what I expected, the chicken was really hard to chew. Our order took about 2 hours for them to serve the food. Horrible service. And I don't even have to mention how far from hygienic the restrooms were. This place needs to improve in many areas. I am going home very disappointed

    Awesole food. This is one of those rare places where the quality is beyond the price and the portion are so generous that they can easily be shared the environment is neat and clean. And you find the real taste of the congolese cuisine

  • 3/5 Conso K. 1 year ago on Google

  • 4/5 Busingye m. 2 years ago on Google
    Chez Flore is one the best restaurants in Kinshasa that serves authentic Congolese food from fish dishes to chicken dishes to greens and so much more. Lovers of fried plantain can go there too. However if you want quick service go there early especially on weekends and public holidays because it fills up quickly. But overall beautiful environment. If you are looking for some local food and meeting lovers of local food, Chez Flore is the place to go. All walks of life catered for superbly🤝

  • 4/5 Fally Bigabwa S. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice however the staffs took quite a while before serving

  • 4/5 Mutale K. M. 3 years ago on Google
    The food is very delicious Congolese Cuisine. A bit pricey at about $35/plate, but this is lots of food that can not be eaten by one person. It has to be shared.

  • 1/5 nancy s. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Good evening at Flore, in recent years, you have changed your way of preparation a little, compared to previous years. Please, improve your cooking as before, there are many things that have changed this not well even us who we come from the provinces we saw it. (Original) Bonsoir chez Flore, ce dernières années, vous avez un peu changé votre manière de préparé, par rapport aux années précédentes.s'il vous plaît, améliorer votre cuisine comme avant,il ya beaucoup de choses qui ont changé ce pas bien même nous qui venons de province nous l'avons constaté.

  • 5/5 Aime K. 3 years ago on Google
    A very good Congolese restaurant with a variety of local dishes. You can get a pretty good idea of what Congolese's food is all about. My 5 star rating is based on comparing this place to all others in the same category. Do if you want Congolese food, go there.

  • 1/5 Barry S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It's incredible! The wait time is enormous. I went 2 hours without having the order and I am crossed out. The people who do the service are zero and have no professional profile. A total mess. Too bad for the owner who does not pay attention to this. (Original) C’est incroyable! Le temps d’attente est énorme. Je suis resté 2 heures sans avoir la commande et je le suis barré. Les personnes qui font le service sont nulles et n’ont aucun profil du métier. Un désordre total. Dommage pour la propriétaire qui ne porte pas attention à cela.

  • 2/5 Raphaël Papy L. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The food is good except that the service must be reviewed completely. The servers note orders on a notebook that apparently is useless because they are mistaken on the line when serving. Go ahead and understand. Also make a big effort on the toilet. Good luck for the future. Your initiative is to be encouraged for the advancement of the DRC. I'll be back. (Original) La nourriture est bonne sauf que le service doit être revue complètement. Les serveurs notent les commandes sur un carnet qui apparemment ne sert à rien car ils se trompent sur toute la ligne au moment de servir. Allez-y comprendre. Aussi faire un gros effort sur l'entretient des toilettes. Bon courage pour la suite. Votre initiative est à encourager pour l'avancement de la RDC. Je reviendrai.
