I haven't been here in like 3 years and the food is amazing . The best Haitian food I've had in a while and the fact that the food tastes the same is a plus. I will definitely be coming here more often!!!!

The food was amazing! We always stop here when we land in MIA Intl Airport! Today we had great service! We ordered 7 different dishes and we were arguing about who got the best one! Thank you for being here! Continued success!

I've come to this location several times and it has always been perfect. However I came back yesterday after a few months of not going and it was disappointing. The salon is pretty big with indoor and outdoor sitting. Some items are already made and some others are made to order. Chicken wings had a light breading and were crispy, but super salty. The Mac and cheese bites were dry and flavorless. The griot had a good amount of fatty parts , but again salty. Black rice was just ok. And I love pikliz but this was either the last thing in the jar or was made for the devil himself, because it was soooo hot that my nose hairs fell off. It was more of a puree and had no crunch to it. I will come back due to my other experience and I hope this was a one off.

Horrendous! PA BON MEM! Manje a telman dry, men valè m paka valè. Map koupè turkey a tankou un block. If you want Haitian food, this is not the place.

I've tried my best to support Caribbean-centric businesses as a member of the community. However, this place is a stain on what the community wants to be representative of. This was my 5th or 6th time, literally navigating through some of the rudest "staff" which they have plenty of that are shuffling behind the counter not helping but - shuffling around. And, the food is not that great, it's ok. I'm sure there are great people cooking the food etc but the "team" they have servicing paying customers are rude, lazy, uncommunicative and ruin the experience. I recommend they make this a take out spot only with no customer servicing - the bar in there is a waste and a joke, give it to a real establishment that needs a license. Big love to my Haitian massive but this place sucks!!

Food good. Customer service could be friendlier. Food portion good. Nice ambiance. Restaurant clean. Parking good.

I wanted to like this place so much. It's next to Funky Buddha, has amazing smells the second you walk in, and has every Caribbean dish I love on the menu. But it fell so short of my expectations.Let's start with the good: great variety of food, restaurant was clean and nicely decorated, and there was a steady stream of people going in and out as we dined. The j*** chicken I ordered was flavorful and served hot with lots of sauce.But there were a lot of not-so-goods: they were out of some menu items (and no recommendations, just "uh-uh, we don't have that"), there are dozens of rules taped around the restaurant telling diners where they could/couldn't order/eat, the prices are exorbitant for what you're getting ($20 for a plate with lukewarm rice? $8 for a side of plantains?), and the takeout service took precedence over the dine-in service. Like, service was painstakingly slow from flagging down someone to place our order 20 minutes after we sat down, seeing folks who sat down after us finish their food before we even got ours, to getting our dishes (we ordered apps and they came after we were more than halfway through our meals, and we saw it had been sitting under a heat lamp for at least 15 minutes), to getting water refills and a side of pikliz. When it was time to go, we couldn't get anyone's help so we grabbed our own boxes from the counter and went straight for the take-out area to pay for our meals.I wouldn't come back here to dine-in, and there are better/more affordable spots down the street if you're craving Jamaican/Haitian food. But for convenience, it's nice to know I can grab takeout next to one of my fave breweries.

This place has with many photos of Haitian landmarks and Artwork.the restaurant is spacious , tables ,seats and could be upgraded , the booths are not very comfortable, the table I sat at felt sticky.The Service is Ok. there was nothing that made me feel special as a customer.The food was edible, I can hungry and left not being hungry I was expecting more based on the appearance of the Restaurant from outside.I would probably be back but would not make a special trip just to eat here.The would prefer higher price on food and better ambiance than status quo.

The food is great but I tend to order to go and I just wish it was packaged with more care and better containers . The container leaked in my car and there was greasy stuff oozing out of the container of goat all over the rice container and they gave me like 3 pieces of iceburg for my salad. I love this place I will go back but please, Mama, give us some better packaging and a bit more salad to go with the delicious mixture

I came in an hour before closing on a Tuesday night. There was maybe two more customers in the building. The sign says please wait to be seated, but no one acknowledged us. Eventually we asked about seating, and someone sat us. The place looks very clean even down to the plates they brought out they look brand new. I ended up ordering the fried turkey with rice and beans. the turkey came out piping hot which is how I like It... and it was very delicious. But they turned around and put a nice pile of cold rice on my plate it had no warmth whatsoever. I could not figure out how it took almost 30 mins for me to end up with cold food. My friend said all of their food was cold. The waitress barely came to check on us. I wouldn't go out my way to come back but maybe if I was in the area.

Wow what poor customer service. Just disgusting. On January 1st I ordered the soup for celebration of Haitian independence over the phone. It was so good I invited my friend to a lunch date there. We weren't greeted at all, the waitress pointed to a table and we followed. (should've been a red flag for me) the entire time we basically had to keep reminding her of things we ordered. She of course had an attitude. I am a generous tipper and so is my friend ---I just couldn't bring myself or her to waste that gratitude on such poor treatment. Never again!

This isn't my first time coming here. The last time I dined in here i didn't have a good experience but I still decided to come back. I use to love dining in but I recommend takeout. We waited over 20 min to receive our drinks and they wasn't even busy. Literally one gentleman that was by his self at first then one person joined him 10 minutes after we were seated. She actually gave the gentleman that join the guy his drink before us. She then brings 2 out of the 3 drinks we ordered.The waitress tells my friend they don't have any frozen drinks. The drink my friend had didn't even taste like Rum Punch. Why offer alcohol drinks when you don't have a bartender or your waitress trained properly to make the drinks. We wait another 20 minutes and the waitress bring 2 out of 3 entrees. Then tell my other friend that the snapper she ordered was too small and does she want something else. Why would she tell us that now after waiting so long. My friend decline her offer to order something else. We finished eating and left. All of us was unsatisfied with the food and service. This is very disappointing because I once loved this restaurant.
