MATA WA KIMBONDO

It used to be a good restaurant with quality food, but that’s no longer the case. I won’t be going back.

My gosh. Can I say that? Sure, I can. It's my experience I'm sharing 😋 I will be coming often, with friends and relatives. Let me warn you, there is a queue. It's not for the impatient. But could you afford the time, your satisfaction will greatly outweight the anxiety in the waiting room 👌 Well organized, good communication skills, tasty food, not expensive - really not. I strongly recommend you get there when you visit Paris or want to make a point to some guests.

Trying to get a table for 3 and got waiting for almost 30min while there were lots of empty tables inside. Service wasn’t really welcoming and kind, and there were lots of delays as well (waited for our dishes again for almost 30min). When I received my dish, it was over cooked and almost burnt (I ordered medium). Then, they took it back and brought me a second plate which was almost cold. Too bad because the food was good, but the general experience was kinda disappointing.

The cold and hot seafoods platters were amazing, very fresh and well prepared. The staffs were very efficient and friendly. They sang happy birthday to our friend wholeheartedly. The restaurant is a little crampy. Prices were very reasonable.

Great place to visit for their seafood platter or grilled meat offer. Portion size is great and the quality of the food is amazing. Be ready to wait as no bookings allowed.

Fish was good. Dessert was excellent

Very nice always

The food is good, but u find it to be overpriced. Specially a baked fish for 45€ that comes with some ok potatoes and unsavory veggies. But that’s fine. What’s really frustrating is the service : it is almost impossible to communicate with the waiters and waitresses, so if you have a question, good luck. Thus, when we ordered and entree, a dish and some wine we asked for the wine to come first with the entree, a bottle of water, and then the main dish. We never got water until the end of our meal, and we never got the entree. When we pointed this to the waitress (and she was doing her best to communicate with us) she just said “sorry” and no more explanation, no comercial gesture for the inconvenient, not even a sight of care, just a this-happens-very-often-sorry. Not really the best dining experience with ok food and a place where it is so loud you can not really share a conversation. Not worth it.
