Truly tasty! We got the jerk chicken wings and the flavor and spice level was perfection. Service was friendly and relaxed. Can’t wait to go back and try more!

Griot was so tasty: crispy, juicy and savory all at once. Totally mouthwatering: I ordered at lunch then ate the leftovers for dinner. A big plate of food with rice and beans and pikles, not too spicy, just right. Table service was excellent. Spacious patio on the corner of Swan’s marketplace, a pleasant place to spend an hour after Farmer’s Market.

I absolutely loved this place! Ordered grilled oysters and was not disappointed. Last time I ate something tasty like this was in New Orleans. I strongly recommend this restaurant for quality food. It is not cheap but it is worth every penny.

Great experience at T’chaka, we were sat immediately and provided our drinks. We were able to talk with the chef personally about the food and recommendations and I chose the Griot (pork bites). They were fantastic and reminiscent of pork carnitas bites from Hispanic cooking, not entirely cooked super tender but semi firm chunks with super delicious and crisp exterior. It came with rice and beans on the side as well as fried plantains both sweet and savory. The sweet being just sweet like fried bananas and the savory reminding me almost of a hash brown in texture and shape. Filling portions and well rounded meal. Would definitely make a stop back here

This is my go to spot when I have a craving for traditional Haitian food. I come from a family of great cooks and this restaurant is authentic. Not only is the food delicious but the service is excellent. I love this family run business. They are warm, friendly and always make you feel welcome. Bonus kids love the food too!
