La Marmite du Saca Saca Review

tiny bu loevely restaurant downtown rennes. La carte is small but very authentic, cooked by a lovely owner. only note is that Credit cards are not accepted so bring cash.

I'm no expert in Congolese food, but I tried the saca-saca and I loved it. Food can take a while because it is freshly made, but worth the wait. One woman show kind of restaurant, with the chef happy to share her passion for food.

Nice restaurant, very cozy and the dishes are well done (handmade). Very recommended!!In the city center and a different one.Tha owner was very kind and help us with her recommendations.

It was so good but unfortunately I came with crazy hungry belly and have to wait around 50 minutes. So yeah it's takes time, don't come with your empty stomach

Except for the Lady who was very welcoming, everything else was terrible. Just 1 table had proper seating, the others are all squeezed in. The service is very long, which of course would be normal given that this lady was handling the whole show. She would take the order, then go cook, serve the table. Then go to the next table, take the order... Imagine, if it was a full house. We waited for over an hour for our order... My son was hungry and ended up having a headache. We ordered 3 different dishes, chicken, beef and fish. The chicken was good, the beef was uncooked and hard, the fish was too thorny.. Even the famous 'Saca Saca' in had thorns in it. That meant we all had to pick on the chicken.. Which came with 3 skinny bone pieces in some gravy...After the tasting ceremony, my daughter went to the loo, only to realise that there was no lock on the door...hand- towel soaking wet... When we decided to leave we we told that the credit card machine was not working and that we could pay by check or cash.. My husband had to then go and search for an ATM machine while I worked out the bill with the Lady, which we did the old fashioned way, with the calculator. She charged us 1 drink extra but I didn't object because thankfully via ' the fork' , we got a 50% discount. Thank god, because even with the discount we paid 60€ for 1 beer, 1 punch, 1 non alcoholic BISSAP, 1 fruit juice 3 dishes and 1 foufou( speciality advised). Imagine, paying 100 quid! Frankly, I think of the 12 clients present this evening, no one is going back...
