“We had an amazing experience at Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen thanks to our waitress, Jina! She was absolutely everything you would want in a server. Very pleasant, polite, and always had a smile on her face every time she came to our table.

Jina knew the menu very well, and if there was ever something she wasn’t completely sure about, she took the time to ask the manager or staff to make sure we received the correct information. That showed how much she cared about giving great service and making sure everything was right.

She constantly checked on our table to make sure we had everything we needed and made us feel welcomed the entire time. Because of Jina’s outstanding customer service, our dinner experience was excellent. Thank you, Jina, for making our visit so enjoyable!“

“Are you looking for a Haitian restaurant where you can finally sit, eat, and not leave with your clothes smelling like you work in the kitchen? La Gourmandize is where you should go. The atmosphere is welcoming, the location is meticulously clean, and the staff is incredibly friendly. I actually was able to conduct a business meeting there today and not worry about if my client’s clothing was going to smell like “épice” (Haitian spice). I ordered “fritay” (Hatitian sample platter). It had “akra” (fried-Haitian-finger-food), “bannann pézé” (fried plantains), “griot” (fried pork), and a side salad. You probably thought I forgot about the “Pikliz” (Haitian hot sauce)? It was some of the freshest servings of pikliz I’ve had. Although it was a fried food platter, the serving wasn’t drenched in oil. The Akra and bannann pézé were crispy, not overcooked, and well seasoned. The griot was well prepared, soft, and well spiced. I highly recommended this place if you’re in the mood for some authentic Haitian cuisine.“

“When entering the business, everyone was greeted with a good morning and a smile. The staff was friendly and very attentive to all the patrons in the restaurant. The food was freshly prepared, and the wait time from order to table was acceptable. I will start enjoying my weekend breakfast here instead of the typical chain restaurants.“
