We did it ✨⭐️
One Star for @dakarnola NOLA from the @michelinguide African cuisine deserves this moment too. I am extremely honored and grateful for this kind of recognition. I honestly couldn’t have done it without my extraordinary team and the people who push me every single day. You inspire me to keep growing, and this star belongs to all of you. To New Orleans and to Senegal, thank you for shaping who we are. To our guests, thank you for trusting us with your palates and special moments. To my family, thank you for believing in me before anyone else did. Congratulations to everyone else recognized by the Guide this year. It’s an honor to share this moment with you. I’ll be honest, I’m still a little bit shocked but looking forward to the road ahead.

Dakar NOLA is our culture, our cuisine, and our creativity poured into every detail, every dish, every corner of this space. It’s a reflection of where we come from and the stories we carry with us, brought to life in every plate we serve.
It’s a journey we’ve curated with love, and we hope it moves you the way it moves us.
Our patio isn’t quite ready yet just waiting for it to cool down out there! In the meantime, we’re cooking up a fun new menu for you. Can’t wait to welcome you home. 🌍✨

Dakar NOLA in New Orleans is The Best Restaurant in South USA 2026.
Inspired by the coastal cuisines of Senegal and South Louisiana, Dakar NOLA is a buzzy tasting menu restaurant set on the vibrant Magazine Street. Co-owner Afua ‘Effie’ Richardson is often seen in some of the most fashionable attire greeting guests with a smile, while chef and co-owner Serigne Mbaye’s pescatarian plates celebrate the best of West Africa and New Orleans.
Here, each plate of food is rooted in Mbaye’s pride in his Senegalese background, with dishes like fonio (an ancient grain) salad, mixed with West African millet and dressed with citrus-honey vinaigrette taking centre stage on the menu. Dakar NOLA is as much a restaurant as a place where cultural connection is plated, shared and consumed in celebration of the role African traditions have on the culturally rich city of New Orleans.

09/04 🎉 Virgo
I am extremely grateful for this birthday. What a year full of blessings, answered prayers. So much of what I’ve been manifesting has come to life I thank God for that, and for all the strong support I have around me.
I became a dad, built the dream restaurant from the ground up, and reached a level of recognition beyond my wildest dreams. Now I want to continue inspiring the next generation of chefs who want to cook food that’s true to them, to tell a story that brings joy through food. Continuing to educate folks about modern West African cooking through a Senegalese lens, but also looking to be more of a sponge than ever and celebrate people’s wins around me.
Love & Happiness!
Virgo season 🎉✨💪🏿
Alhumdulillah! 🤲🏿

Our Lagniappe course ✨
West African fonio, Creole tomatoes, grilled Alabama peach vinaigrette, cherry and heirloom tomatoes from @fatcat.farm , finished with radishes and herbs from @riverqueengreens

But the real story is in the plate beneath it.
Our plates are handmade by @potsalot local pottery studio next to our old spot. It started with one bowl, made just for me. That one bowl turned into all of our plates each one carrying a piece of that same love.
One night, talking about what our new plates should feel like, we looked up and there was our answer. The masks on our walls, gathered from across West Africa, have always meant more than decoration. They carry the spirit of initiation ceremonies, harvest rites, and ancestors remembered. They carry the stories of different tribes, different people, one root.
So we asked the clay to carry that same spirit.
Grain to glaze. Farm to fired earth. Our ancestors, on your table. 🖤

Ataya
The first recipe on our menu and it hasn’t left since. It marks the beginning of our tasting menu’s journey.
Ataya symbolizes teranga: togetherness, hospitality, joy, and an invitation into our home, @dakarnola.
We look forward to sharing Ataya and breaking bread with y’all.
