Our Story
Le Mystic was born out of a passion for sharing the unique flavors and cultural heritage of Congo with the world. Our founders, inspired by their roots and the diverse food culture of their homeland, wanted to create a place where people could come together to enjoy delicious food, good company, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere reminiscent of a traditional Congolese home.

At Le Mystic, we pride ourselves on offering an authentic and diverse menu that showcases the best of Congolese cooking. Our dishes are prepared using traditional recipes passed down through generations, with a focus on fresh, high-quality ingredients. From the savory Pondu (cassava leaves stew) to the aromatic Liboke (marinated and steamed fish or meat in banana leaves), each dish is crafted to bring the true taste of Congo to your table.
We also offer a selection of Congolese beverages, including local beers and the distinctive Malafu (palm wine), along with a variety of signature cocktails inspired by African flavors.
