Belle Congolaise - (Near , South East)

5 /5 Oseko Lomanga: This is the number one Congolese restaurant — truly the best of the best. No one rushes you or chases you out after you finish your food, which makes the experience even better. It’s the best Congolese restaurant in the world, in my opinion. I felt like I was at an immunotherapy party — bravo! Please keep it clean as usual. It’s a great place to take your partner and enjoy a proper meal in a relaxed atmosphere. Only a few things could be improved, such as the kamundele — it wasn’t very good this time. Maybe changing the preparation method or the type of meat could make it better. Overall, an excellent place and highly recommended.

1 /5 Kevin Ditawole: The customer service was very poor waited two hours for simple food. Telling me there is no items avaliable two hours in. Using microwave to cook food. The waiters had no idea what they were doing, untrained.

5 /5 phllipelijah muya mkasa: The food was enjoyable I had the £12 bean and rice platter, which came with beef stew. The ntaba was good, though it could have benefited from better seasoning. The atmosphere was exactly what I was looking for, especially since I visited during the AFCON final.

1 /5 anthony dameon: Positive: Décor: the seating area is aesthetically pleasing. Negative: Food: for a restaurant that has an open grill on display as you walk in the food lacked flavour. The food is brought out from a secondary kitchen the back. Be mindful of what you order as apparently food are strangely itemised. For example £6 for samosa’s we received 10 so they originally changed £60 for SAMOSA’s. Portion size: (See attached photo) we ordered platters that apparently was meant to serve 3. I draw you attention to the size of the plantain compared to the rice or meats. Wait time: On arrival the restaurant was not particularly busy and most guest arrived at the same time and food was ordered. I can understand a busy restaurant on a Friday and our food being freshly prepared on the grill but this was not the case. We waited 90 minutes for our food. Price: (see attached photo) Drink are very expensive, if you still decide to come, go to the corner shop they sell African Fanta for £1.50, and standard prices for Diet Coke and ginger beer. If you want an alcoholic drink, there is a nice bar next door where you can get a few drinks for the price of one of this restaurants Piña colada (Yes that’s what we did). The time the food took, you can have a few round and come back. Even though we ordered they still charged each guest £25 individually (on the bill this is shown as misc food) had no idea of what we actually paid for Final bill: £522, believe me we didn’t eat that much. Atmosphere: Have a night out with friends and family and it will be great but the restaurant is so loud you will not be able to hear the person next to you. Toilets: Let’s just say they were not clean. Recommendation: Find somewhere else to go.

4 /5 Camila Xandra: My first time attending with my boyfriend and son, the lady in the front explained the food very well. And was very friendly. We had fish and my son had the bbq chicken wings, the wings still had feathers which I didn’t let my son touch. He didn’t really like it but he ate the fries and the samosas. Both fish dishes were amazing and couldn’t fault it. Definitely will be back to try other things on menu. But please clean your chicken better :)
