Lome - Post Report Question and Answers

What typical restaurants, food delivery services, and/or takeout options are popular among expatriates?

For food delivery there are only 3 places. The Indian restaurant 7 spices, the Lebanese restaurant le phenecian, the sushi bar Japanese restaurant. There are some mediocre Chinese restaurants, some decent local restaurants, but generally everyone usually serves brochettes and French fries. Learn to love French fries. It is served with everything. - Mar 2019


There are a good number of restaurants, but none to write home about. - Feb 2019


There is a VERY limited number of places to go. PERIOD. In two months you already know all of them. It is a very small city and not many options. - Sep 2017


No fast food at all. Some very nice French restaurants with costs ranging from US$5 to $$$. - Aug 2015


Yes, cost is moderate to high. - May 2014


no Mc Donald but they have Al Donald which is risky to eat there, no KFC, no AMerican fastfood here. Expect to wait for a long time for food to come then you will be fine. Cost is expensive to eat in the nice restaurant. There are many good restaurants in Lome such as Greenfield, Sushi bar, Les nuit D'órient, Golden Beach etc. My favorite is Greenfield and Sushi bar. - Mar 2011
