all of the above hotels have restaurant services but may be quite expensive.
there is any number of open air popular spots, especially around the airport and on ave. Yennenga where you get grilled chicken, kebabs and music, like Taxi Brousse, Lido Bar, Chawarma, Pili Pili etc.
But the better restaurants are indoors with French cuisine and air conditioning:
