Akar NOLA offers a contemporary tasting menu deeply rooted in Senegalese traditions. Drawing inspiration from the coastal essences of both Dakar and New Orleans, the restaurant prominently features locally-sourced seafood and fresh produce from regional farms in South Louisiana. The culinary creations are the brainchild of Chef Serigne Mbaye, who infuses the dishes with the fond memories of his upbringing in Senegal, where he was first introduced to cooking by his mother. The dining experience at Akar NOLA includes several courses, with some dishes presented family-style, reflecting the communal eating habits typical of West African culture.
