Haitian Restaurants near Lauderdale Lakes, FL

“This food is very good. Kind of has the home cooked feel to it too. Only thing is the pickles could use a little work especially with the scotch bonnet pepper, I feel like they should be cut into smaller pieces. Also the price for it is very respectable compared to others. $15 for griot will have me coming back again for sure.“

“Everything is good love 3 milk 4 years pay for family cakedelicious☺️☺️“

“The food was excellent and the service on point“

“The food was very delicious it's one of the best Haitian Restaurants !!!“

“I ordered two dinners and although the meat was fresh, it was tasteless for a Haitian restaurant. The portion was minimized for the price. Also to add, the sauce and pikliz was disgusting. I never had food that was tasteless as such.“

“Food is so freaking good the junjun rice is omg the chicken n sauce is omg I will be going back ❤️❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯💯💯‼️‼️‼️‼️👌👌👌👌“

“I wish I took pictures but nonetheless, this restaurant is a vibe. The workers are nice, friendly , and most importantly they greet you when you walk in. You feel at home and relaxed. This was my first time visiting this restaurant and I will be coming back. Restaurant gets very busy but I see why it’s popular!“

“Can't go to Florida and not look for Haitian food. Mom found this online and it didn't disappoint. And again being vegetarian that had options for us even legume! I personally like their plantain and my daddy finished his plate, lol.“

“I had this food for the very first time me today! It’s twas delicious but my problem is there’s no menu that order froPlease send include a menu info cause I wanna know seafood prices“

“I am giving them a 8/10 for great food and price. I had griot, fried fish and the food was well seasoned and flavored, the portion was great. My only complaint is the music was too loud and the decor was poor, place is small too. I guess most people just order and pick up the food.“

“Everyone here is very welcoming didn't have any issues placing and picking up my order I got griot with some chicken and beef patties and a strawberry banana papaya smoothie. Everything came out amazing 10/10 definitely the best smoothie and haitian patties I've ever had!!!“

“Our goat (cabrit) and chicken (poulet) en sauce were plentiful and very good.. tender, not too greasy (vs. many Haitian stews that have a thick layer of fat on top), and well-seasoned. The one customer-facing employee was professional re: service; however, he played his phone on speaker while he scrolled through his feed of various videos (some political, some profane) very loudly the whole time we were there.“

“On vacation and decided i want some Caribbean/Hatiian food! We got there late on a Sunday evening an hour before closing! I ordered the Turkey Stew! It came with a creole rice and fried plantains! The food was cooked fresh! Just like Home Cooking ! The food was absolutely delicious! The gentleman there treated so well he made us feel like family! What a wonderful experience and delicious food! I will come here every time I return to Ft. Lauderdale!“

“🥰 goooooooooooooooood!!!!“

“Extremely great customer service and freshly made products you can taste the LOVE!“

“Great food and good service!“

“Reflexion Restaurant (Titi Restaurant) is a must. The legume and sos pwa were fire!!! Perfectly seasoned, rich, and full of flavor. You can tell everything is cooked with care. And the white rice? Honestly so good it can be eaten by itself. Simple, clean, and done right. Definitely coming back.“

“I went there thinking there was a nice sit down option for my family, but was dissatisfied with the seating arrangements. Place was quite dirty outside. But the Griot with rice and beans were great. This is more of a to go option but definitely won't get crossed off the list.“

“Oh my goodness! Hands down! Best Haitian food in the Broward County! I grew up eating Haitian food all my life, legume is fresh and on point. Nice size of food for your money. So tasty! Fried Turkey was tasty as well. Restaurant is clean and inviting. The wait wasn’t too long like other Caribbean restaurants. Come here!“

“G and his family are really kind and attentive. This is the place to come if you’re looking for authentic, flavorful Hatian dishes. Don’t be afraid to ask for a nice cold Prestige beer or a Corounne soda to wash all that good food down. I love their Diri Djon rice and the gravy that is served with it. The griot(fried pork) was tender for each time I ate there and the plantain crispy. Food was pretty consistent with portion and flavor the entire week I ate there . Check them out you won’t be disappointed.“

“The best Haitian food Ive had in Fl, started off a lil rough because its a language barrier when ordering, so they had my order wrong. But it was made correctly and was delicious! The mist tender griot ive ever had, I wanted the lalo but they didn’t have any, i can’t wait to try that“

“The food are good but this morning the lady who was serving was so mean and rude to me, she came late there was a long line she has the nerve to give me an attitude. Not everyone is fit to do customer service some people are bettwr off in the background...i am spending my money to buy food not your stinky attitude“

“I had such a delightful meal at this restaurant. I would recommend anyone from the area to come by at (RRR) for delicious nutritious meal ???. Trust me they will not disappoint. They also do CATERING FOR PARTIES OR DIFFERENT EVENTS!!!!! Call them for more information“

“Food is fantastic and service is excellent“

“If you’re looking for authentic Haitian food with great flavor and reasonable prices, I definitely recommend Shamama Restaurant. They just opened on April 1st, and they’ve already made a strong impression.

The food is fresh, flavorful, and the pricing is much more reasonable compared to many restaurants in the area. One thing I can’t stop ordering is the fried taso kabrit — it’s seasoned perfectly, fried just right, and honestly so good that I keep going back for more.

The atmosphere is welcoming, the service has been great, and you can tell they care about the quality of their food. Definitely worth checking out if you love good Haitian cuisine.“

“Great food, fast and friendly service. Will definitely go again.“

“Great legume, griot, and Diri.“

“I have ordered lunches for our office and had an event catered by Bistro Creole and the food was awesome! Griot was well seasoned but not too dry, fried snaper was amazing, chicken en sauce was awesome, everything we ordered was excellent - Acra, Marinade, Djondjon rice, even the salad was so fresh and very well presented. It is always a great experience with Bistro Creole - the people there are a pleasure to speak with and always so helpful!“

“I accidentally ran into Marc, the owner. I really wanted Tassot Dinde. They initially didn't have it. I heard this was the best Haitian restaurant in all of South Florida. I was visiting from out of town and was a bit down about it. As I ordered another item, ate, and got prepared to leave, he gave me a fresh plate of fried turkey. That said a lot. The food was delicious. Highly recommended.“

“Great 👍 place awesome 👏 food friendly people & most of all very nice smell inside of restaurant 😍🥰😇🙏🏾👌“

“The food is to die for!!!“

“Had a great experience with this restaurant. The food is so delicious, ordered a few different meals for my family members. The lalo; amazing, the legume; to die for, the fried fish platter; the best. All meals come with sides included. They also sell fresh juices which is a perfect addition to your meal. They also do catering so we ordered large trays of rice and meats for a party we were having. Prices are very reasonable. If you're looking for an authentic Haitian meal this is the place to go. You will not be disappointed. The owner is also very nice, great customer service!“

“I recently visited Le Jardin Caribbean Cafe and had the fried goat with black rice, and let me tell you — it was amazing. The flavors were on point, well-seasoned, and tasted like real home-style Caribbean cooking. The black rice paired perfectly with the goat and was cooked just right.
One small suggestion: don’t fry the goat too hard — when it’s tender with a little crisp, that’s when it really shines. Still very good overall.
The pikliz was also really good — fresh, tangy, and it added the perfect bite to the meal.
If you’re looking for authentic Haitian food with real flavor, Le Jardin Caribbean Cafe is definitely worth checking out. I’ll be back for sure.“

“service impeccable!!! très accueillant, très bonne portion. poli, joviale, prenne le temps pour expliquer et nous diriger dans leurs menus. le personnel n'hésite pas a faire un + dans leurs services pour satisfaire sa clientèle.. employés cinq étoiles et très familiale!. prix très bon!. je recommande ce restaurant et ce sans hésiter. la qualité de la nourriture et très bonne.“

“As an independent contractor I asked the cashier for a receipt for the items I paid for in cash she replies that they Do Not Give Out Receipts for cash tranaction(s),  they Give Out Receipts for items paid with Credit Card or Debit Card as per the business'owner policy.
I requested for tax purposes.
They probably do not report most of the cash transactions in order to pay less taxes.
I will report this matter to the Better Business Bureau and other Local Government offices.“

“i will definitely go there again“

“Honestly no restaurant is perfect
But so far I’ve had a great experience been ordering for over 8 months now, they always nice, I appreciate their customer service skills again it’s not perfect, but their dishes are always tasty 😋.“

“very good food and the people very friendly“

“We had our 1st experience at this restaurant last week. It was SO delicious we returned tonight! Very tasty Haitian flavors! Highly recommend!!😋YuMMy😋“

“The soup joumou every Sunday is a must-have. There is no traditional line setup, like how we have in American style restaurants, however, the atmosphere is welcoming and urges you to communicate and be kind.

I found that by having good energy and being alert, your dining experience at this location will be satisfying.“

“Best food around bar none! Wonderful environment and the owner is awesome and a very talented cook!!!“

“I had an excellent experience thanks to Marlene! I ordered the chicken pasta and requested a sweet sauce. Marlene went above and beyond by calling me personally to make sure my order was exactly how I wanted it. She even included not one, but two extra sweet sauces at no additional charge.

The food was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious, but what really stood out was Marlene’s outstanding customer service. She was thoughtful, attentive, and made sure every detail of my order was perfect. It’s rare to receive this level of care these days, and it truly made my experience exceptional.

Thank you, Marlene, for providing such amazing service. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“This was my first time here the food was sooo good. The flavor is there the hint of pepper in the rice is there…. The rice is dry and moist at the same damn time. I would definitely go back hope I receive the same food and service or I’ll be right in these comments….😍😍😍“
