No frills, all flavor.
Follow the smell of grilled meat down Rue de la Légion d'Honneur to a tiny Congolese kitchen where brochettes and malangwa stew keep a loyal few coming back.

Congolese home cooking that earns its near-perfect rating
If you're walking down Rue de la Légion d'Honneur and catch a whiff of grilled meat, follow your nose — it's probably Délices d'Ana. This is a small, no-frills Congolese kitchen where the welcome is warm and the cooking is honest. The brochettes are the move: properly tender, well-seasoned, and grilled with care. The porc gets consistent praise from regulars, and the malangwa — a Congolese stew — is the kind of dish that makes you understand why this spot has a near-perfect rating despite having only a handful of reviews.
Don't come expecting a polished dining room or a curated wine list. This is home cooking served in a modest space, and that's exactly the point. The portions are generous, the flavors are bold, and the people running it clearly care. They also cater events — weddings, baptisms, tontines — so if you're organizing something and want real food that feeds a crowd properly, keep their number handy.
With only about ten Google reviews, Délices d'Ana flies under the radar, but the people who've found it are clearly loyal. It's the sort of neighborhood spot that survives on word-of-mouth and repeat visits rather than buzz. Go hungry, order the brochettes, and ask what's in the pot that day.
