Dakar Street Food is a counter-service spot in Westchase that serves Senegalese and Caribbean food that hit the spot. Primarily a takeout operation, people flow in and out for quick lunches, like smoky grilled poisson braise or braised oxtail and golden plantains. But whatever time it is, this is the place to head to for a comforting meal after a long day. And with any meal, you should get the sweet passion fruit drink or tart bissap and a side of warm beignets.

Poisson Braise

The poisson braise is broiled, covered in onions, and is so good that we wish we could eat it whole and pull out the bones intact like a cartoon cat. In the meantime, we’ll stick to devouring the tilapia with our hands.

Oxtail

The oxtail is loaded with a rich gravy and carmelized onions. The oxtail is also so tender that it would probably fall off the bone if you stared at it long enough. Get it with white rice and plantains or with a side of couscous.

Beignets

Like little fried balls of sunshine, the beignets are golden and make us feel like everything is going to be OK. The beignets are also filled with raisins and coated with powdered sugar.

Drinks

The best drinks at Dakar Street food are the passion fruit lemonade which tastes like a liquid starburst and the bissap which is made with tart and refreshing hibiscus.
