Compared to other Haitian restaurants, they're a little pricey for the food quality.

I was part of a large group for dinner today. The server was friendly and attentive. The food was served without delay, and it was amazing! This restaurant is one of the best kept secrets in South Florida. We'll definitely be back again and again.

Everytime we come from vacation, we come to Alberte's. The food here is amazing. It's as if you were eating native Haitian food right in Haiti. We were a group of 8 this time, and everyone raved about their selection. One of the best Haitian restaurants in South Florida.

Jennifer the bartender busted her tush to take care of everyone with a smile. Ordered jerk chicken stew. Received fried chicken with stew sauce. Ordered a burger cooked medium, received two thin, burnt patties and one slice of tomato the size of a quarter on a bun. The patties were the same thin preprocessed things that we used to get at the middle school cafeteria. We will never ever return.

I’ve been to Alberte’s many time since they opened. And as another reviewer said the food is declining as the years go by. My plate seemed ok until Ingot home to dig in. I ordered legume Jon Jon rice and plantains. The rice was ok didn’t have that authentic taste I’ve grown accustomed to and the legume was extremely dry and seemed old. Very very disappointing.. I bought two plates of legume and one griot spending around $69 with tip. Very disappointing I won’t be back as this is the second time I ordered to go and the food was less than appetizing.

The food does not look like what the menu looks like . I got left over rice or it was sitting for some time it did not taste fresh. Plantains was not fresh either. I was 3 hours before closing I don’t think the food should be tasting awful. Very pricey but food was terrible!

Service was absolutely horrible with the waitress. Once I received my food, I never saw her again. Left no tip and a note on the receipt. If you’re not going to have better service, stop with dine in. Also the hvac vents are disgusting, please clean

A family member recommended this restaurant to me and my husband a year ago. Since then we have been regulars. The food is excellent!. We usually order the Legume, Goat, fried turkey with rice and beans. The decor is tasteful with a nice ambience. The reason, they are not getting a 5 stars is because the customer service and staffing. The young ladies working behind the counter lack customer service. Everytime we go there, it's very challenging to get someone to answer some basic questions. There's no sense of urgency when it comes to attending to the customers. I believe this restaurant has great potential but will need to invest in new staffing with the emphasis on customer service. A smile goes a long way :-)!

This is a wonderful place! Has great food. Management is good but the servers are soooo slow and not attentive! The customer service has been bad no eye contact no greeting they move at their own pace. When you ask a question they make it seem like your inconveniencing them. No sense of urgency they are chit chatty its a shame the owner has a great place but terrible staff
