Bissap Baobab Village, formerly comprised of both Bissap Baobab and Little Baobab, embodies the culture of San Francisco’s popular and international Mission District. Little Baobab, our current home base, is an intimate bistro and club located at 3388 19th Street between Mission & Capp Street and serves lunch from 11am to 2pm, with dinner service from 4pm onward. Artisan cocktails and renowned Afr

obeat events on Friday and Saturday nights add spice to Little Baobab's offerings. Baobab Village expresses the vision of founder Marco Senghor, born and raised in Dakar and educated in Paris. His deep knowledge and appreciation of French West African culture, food, and music infuses the enticing ambiance of his establishments. Little Baobab strives to create a sense of 'teranga,' which can be translated from Senegal's Wolof language to mean “hospitality.” Teranga is reserving the best part of the meal for one's guests; neighbors taking care of one another; being accepted for who you are. As restaurant owner, social entrepreneur, and a dedicated community member, Marco has infused teranga into Baobab Village, transforming 19th & Mission into a multicultural enclave. One can truly experience the diversity of San Francisco by visiting this West African oasis.

BAOBAB LOUNGE
Muddy Waters by Day • Baobab Lounge by Night
After every final... the best trophy is Peace & Love.
Imagine if one evening, a few friends wandered into Baobab Lounge...
"I'm tuning the music."
"I love Ginger just as much as Bissap!"
"I heard about the Moringa secrets..."
😊 "Is SF Daniel bringing the whole neighborhood?"
😂 "It's all good... I'm gluten-free!"
Who knows? Maybe one day.
Until then, we'll keep doing what we've always done, bringing people together through food, music, laughter, and friendship.
No VIP. No red carpet. No borders.
Just one table where everyone belongs.
If you can't make it this time...
There will be plenty of other nights.
Everyone is welcome.

AFRO NATIVO IS BACK AT MUDDY WATERS! 🎶
This Thursday, join us for an unforgettable evening of Afro-Latin rhythms, great food, and community.
Live music is becoming harder to sustain, but we believe that together we can keep it alive.
That's why we're launching our Afro Nativo Community Table.
🍔 Our goal is simple: 40 pre-orders before the show.
When we reach 40 meals, we can better support the musicians, continue bringing Afro Nativo to Muddy Waters, and create more opportunities for live music in our neighborhood.
🎟️ Pre-order your meal and enjoy: • Half-price cover ($5 instead of $10) • Delicious World Beats Sliders • Fresh House Bissap • An incredible night of music and dancing
❤️ Want to do even more? • Buy a meal for a musician. • Buy the band a drink. • Invite a friend. • Help us build a sustainable live music community.
Every meal shared, every friend invited, and every show attended brings us one step closer to keeping live music thriving in San Francisco.
📍 Muddy Waters Café 521 Valencia Street, San Francisco
🗓️ Thursday, July 2 🕗 8:00 PM – 10:30 PM
Good Food. Strong Drinks. World Beats. Great Vibes.
Let's keep the music alive—together! 🎶🌍
