" I recently visited Ponty Bistro for lunch and it was delightful. The decors give off a charming vibe, perfect for relaxation. I ordered the Senegalese chicken, and while it was tasty, I felt the portion sizes could have been a bit larger for the price. However, the staff was incredibly kind, checking in to ensure everything was okay. Overall, it was a solid experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" After numerous visits, I can confidently say Ponty Bistro finds a balance between African flair and tasteful dining. The flavors are incredible, yet the waitstaff varies in attentiveness. I love their lamb dishes and the exotic marinades used. The environment is cozy—perfect for a date night or family gathering. I'm looking forward to returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I don’t often leave reviews but felt compelled after dining at Ponty Bistro. The food was so flavorful! I had the mixed seafood platter which was divine. The staff was very welcoming, and despite being busy, they made us feel special. Afterwards, we enjoyed the atmosphere—it felt like a little slice of Senegal here in Harlem. Can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Hadn't been back in a while but made a trip recently, and it did not disappoint! The grilled octopus salad was an exquisite appetizer. Everything was fresh and cooked with care. The atmosphere is lively but still intimate enough that we felt at ease. The service was friendly and timely. I'm looking forward to returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for my meal at Ponty Bistro, but it fell short. While the ambiance was lively, my dish arrived lukewarm and took a while to reach the table. When I brought it to the server's attention, they seemed indifferent. The flavors were decent but lacked the wow factor I was expecting. I may consider giving the place another shot in the future.

" Disappointment. Food was average at best, the shrimp I ordered was overcooked and lacked seasoning. The staff was friendly but seemed overwhelmed. As a first-time visitor, I expected more based on previous reviews. The atmosphere was generally nice, but I may look elsewhere next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a fantastic experience at Ponty Bistro! From the moment I walked in, I felt the warm ambiance. The lamb burger was flavorful and cooked to perfection, and I was particularly impressed by the service. The staff was genuinely friendly and attentive, making our dining experience memorable. I can't wait to return and explore more of their diverse menu! " (*Curated Review*)
