“I really do love Donnas restaurant because the food is simply delicious. The restaurant offers a wide variety of food that will tickle your tastebuds the moment you enter, and have you coming back for more.... And how can I forget the staff. They are simple courteous people who are always willing to serve. If you really want some great Caribbean food with great service....Donnas is the place I recommend. I eat at University drive, N State Road 7, 12th.Street, and Coral Springs...Please don't judge me. I cook in my own kitchen...but Donnas is my favorite eat out option for all the good reasons I've suggested.“

“Food was wonderful, clearly prepared to our tasted. Even better was Sierra. Friendly, chsrming, and very watchful to make certain that we were happy at every step of the meal. New menu items were followed by the amazing Island for dessert. Not to be missed. To repeat - it was all about the caring Sierra. Noise level was the only negative.“

1- inside is clean and neat
2- employees are always on the Go and help each others
3- There a gentleman who served me “Mike” is his name. He was very gentle in everything he did. He was very curtsy towards every customer. He’s demeanor was so kind and sincere that even myself felt good. These are the type of employees that deserves to be promoted!“

“A small Haitian cuisine takeout, tucked away like the ? it is...food is made to order, and probably the best around. Store is too quiet. Try to give the store life by playing music, or at least turn on the t.v. on. It's so quiet, i can hear the refrigerator running, as if I had bionic ears. Nonetheless, give them a chance, you won't regret it. Remember to support small businesses. ?????? Peace and Love.“
