“Great food and the service was not bad“

“One of my favorite Carribean Restaurants. I have been eating there for years. They make all favorites: Bouillon, Tassot Cabrit (fried Goat meat); Tassot Codinn(fried Turkey), griot (fried Pork). Their foods are a reminder of Haiti. Thx for bringing home to Us. Their customer service gives you that warmth, that comfort, that joy.
You guys rock.“

“U can see the best food on earth“

“I love this restaurant. The food is soooo good. For all the people complaining about the language barrier then GO TO POPEYES!! I swear American’s are so ignorant and have no class. It’s a Haitian restaurant. You want our food so bad but have the nerves to complain about our language. Gain some class. It’s sad to bash and give a one start to a family business because they don’t speak your language. You’re sick in the head to bash someone’s business online like that. This is someone’s livelihood. JUST GO SOMEWHERE ELSE.“

“The young gentleman at my hotel front desk recommended this place, as I was looking for Jamaican food near by. I was pleasantly surprised at food this good coming from a mall food court. I took my order to go, as the mall dining area itself isn't so great. I ordered the oxtails, peas & rice, cabbage and plantains. My only complaint is I feel like I mostly paid for bones and fat, as the oxtail meat was not very plentiful for the cost; however, the flavor of everything and other portion sizes were very giving. I would definitely give it another try but would probably try the goat curry or jerk chicken instead. Customer service was ok. ♥️“

“The restaurant isn't designed for groups to dine in comfortably. No imagination is put into the decor, BUT the food is delicious! The pea soup is to die for!! I've also had the fried chicken which is cooked to perfection and the oxtail which is nice. I've had the salt fish fritters which are too greasey but the fried dumplings (Johnny Cakes) are just DELICIOUS.... More to cone as I work .y way through the menu.“

“I lived on a boat for 19 years in Marsh Harbour Conch Haven is the Best Bohemian food out side of the Bahamas. There Conch Salad and cracked Conch is outstanding.“

“I visit this location last week and I came in. I wasn’t feeling too well and Nadine and the staff took very good care of me Nadine went out of her way to make sure that I got some tea to drink checking on me and making sure that I was OK and that I was well enough to operate my vehicle. I just wanna say thank you to the her and staff.“

“What a great secret we found! We drove all the way from Ft Lauderdale Beach because the reviews were so good. I’m so glad we did! As soon as we walked in we were greeted with a warm and friendly smile and welcome from the woman behind the counter. Everything was so clean and organized, I was impressed! We got a lunch brown stew chicken and the oxtail, because that’s what he always wants but usually isn’t offered in a lunch option. Totally worth it! The food was so delicious, and you could tell that she put her heart in her cooking. Oxtail was so tender and the stewed chicken was the best I’ve had outside of Jamaica. We will probably go back today because she’ll have stewed peas, plantains, and mac and cheese available. And the juice tasted like real fruit. It was bottled in Kingston, of course. We will definitely be back when we get to the area. Thank you so much!“

“This is the best location. I went in to purchase two Easter Buns and the service from I entered in was amazing. I was greeted with a friendly smile and a warm welcome. Julian I believe is the name of the person who assisted me on my visit. I've visited other locations before but this one is my favorite. We buy our Easter Buns and spiced buns from here all the time. I'll definitely be back for some of that delicious food I smelled being cooked. Thank you for the lovely experience.“

“Great service. Ordered curry chicken roti and a side of pumpkin. Curry is flavorful and not salty. The roti is delicious. soft with nice texture.“

“This place is great! Atmosphere is chill and cool ,the staff is also really friendly. They know what they’re doing and what they’re talking about, and you can tell making the customers happy is their main priority. Food is pretty good, some real Jamaican classics and they put their own little twists on things .for their prices it’s 100% worth it.... Big up Chef Rose & the Crew ????“

“I Don't know where these reviewers went but I'm sure its not the same Tabanka i have been going to. I have had nothing but exceptional service whenever I'm there, and believe me I have been there since they opened. Even family visiting from Trinidad the first place we visit is there. And we go back time and time again. So Kudos to the staff and especially the owner who always so professional and pleasant. Excellent atmosphere. great food. good service.. 10 stars..“

“Alamod Caribbean Restaurant is a hidden gem that truly deserves all five stars! The flavors are authentic, rich, and vibrant. The griot was perfectly seasoned, tender, and the pikliz added the perfect kick. The staff were warm and welcoming. The portions were very generous, and the prices were fair for the quality and experience . Alamod Caribbean Restaurant is a must-visit!“

“This place right here is my favorite Haitian restaurant! Now that their Miami location has closed, I still make the commute here to get my fix. They have all the classic dishes, from griot all the way to lalo on Thursdays. You must dine in if you can. The staff is so welcoming and nice. The food presentation is immaculate. If you're a fan of mac and cheese, you must try the mac. Please be patient, as the food is very fresh and may take some time to come out. But just vibe to the Haitian music while you wait, and you'll be okay.“

“I really enjoyed the food here. Although they don't have a lunch special, they do have a small size which is a lot of food for lunch. The price for the jerk chicken with rice and peas was $12.99. The customer service was excellent. The owner was very polite as he served me, which is rare for a Jamaican restaurant. I'll definitely be back.“

“I visited from out of town and wanted some good down home food! I was impressed! I ordered the catfish and grits, Cajun shrimp and grits. Absolutely delicious! 10/10+ Oh and the mango juice was tasty as well! Staff were wonderful! I’ll definitely be back!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – Just like home!

Pikliz Resto is a gem in Fort Lauderdale! The place is clean and welcoming, the staff is super nice, and the food… absolutely amazing! It tastes exactly like the meals my mom and grandma used to cook back home in Haiti. Every bite brings back memories.

If you’re in the area, please do yourself a favor and visit them — nou pap regret sa, manje yo bon anpil! Authentically Haitian and full of love. I’ll definitely be back!

EBS!“

“Came here from Google reviews and it did not disappoint. I was greeted by Mily herself. When my food came out, she was kind enough to put a couple of extras so I can try other things that my plate didn't come with (mac n cheese is chefs kiss). I definitely recommend to try this little spot out and get some good eats. I'll be back!!!“

“Great Service and Great Food. What more can you ask for!“

Ms. Aunty May always has me eating my belly full for the day!! 😆😆
Today the ladies greeting me with great holiday smiles, and helped me make my breakfast selection for the morning.
These ladies made my morning!!

“simply delicious with fast friendly service“

“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.“

“Tasty food and Ms Joy is very Friendly and greet her customers like family ❤️ she is always giving back to the community by sending food for people in need that cannot come to her restaurant like they used to because of their illnesses 🙏 god bless 🥰“

“The food was extraordinary 10/10 and the service was really good, our waitress was very attentive and kind. I believe her name was Van, she had red hair. very sweet. The chef was even interacting with the tables and asking about our experience. We will be back very soon!!!“

“Had a delicious jerk chicken meal! Great portion and well priced.“

“When visiting the area for a weekend we searched for somewhere to get doubles for breakfast. We luckily came across D Trini Spot. The food was so delicious that we came back a second time. The owner, Peats was pleasant as we all talked about Trinidad. We had doubles, Saheena, aloo pie, sada with saltfish and bake with saltfish. There’s plenty of drink options, homemade punch and ice creams as well as other Trini sweets! If we’re back in the area in the future we’ll be making it a priority to stop here again“

“I don’t usually do reviews unless customers service is TOP TIER-

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!“

“I was visiting from NJ and looking for the perfect Florida beach vibe. It was a Monday afternoon so I wasn’t expecting much When I walked In the Aruba Beach Cafe just in time for the 4pm Happy Hour and saw the Salty Pirates Duo on stage, I had to stay to check it out. The food was incredible, as was the really friendly waitress. The Salty Pirates were awesome and a lot of fun. Looking forward to returning next time I’m in the area!“

“Mouthwateringly delicious! I had the jerk chicken salad and shrimp pasta today. I’m very impressed with the food, service and atmosphere. Good job Golden Krust, I had a not so great experience before but I must say the improvement is very noticeable.“

“Listen, you get authentic Jamaican jerked chicken, escovitched fish, roast fish, steamed fish, fish soup! Yummy? food, great service. Don't worry if you go in and there's a line, you'll be "next" soon. D place jus nice iyah! Big up yuh self Mel!“

“Excellent food as always. Ordered every appetizer and every single one was amazing. Loved the Jerk pasta, and ribs for dinner. The service was beyond excellent. Only thing I would suggest is to lower music a bit. I love the music but even the server could not hear anyone at the tables. Great experience overall.“

“5 stars for the food and service . Feel like eating Haitian food , you won't regret it , go to Shamama.

Oh they are not stingy , they r generous with the food.

Moun yo Nan cuisine Nan konn fait manger , bon sizonad, kembe la.“

“The food is terrible and a complete rip-off—definitely poor quality. Anyone giving this place 4 stars is either intoxicated or has never tasted good food. The Lo Mein is mushy, tasteless, and made me want to throw up. The fried rice is soggy, overly salty, and has no flavor. Absolutely disgusting.“

“Best Virgin Islands Restaurant in Ft. Lauderdale“

“Sweet plantain canoe for the win! Amazing experience definitely will be going back for more soon.“

“meat patties are the bomb1“

“Oxtail!!!“

“Best doubles & roti I have had in South Florida! Kam's hands are blessed and the seasoning is on point. all done in love. We stayed and ate there & the hospitality felt like family. Kam is sweet, attentive & provided the best service. You have to try. its a little hidden but so easy to find! portions were satisfying & bigger than most places.“

“Great experience!!! Reisa was our server and she knows how to treat her guests!! She made sure my date and I understood the menu and made delicious choices. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. 😊 I recommend for your Caribbean cravings,; we had the shrimp fried rice.“

“Delicious food and great service!“

“My family and I love trying new flavors from different places, so we decided to try this little place called: which is located on W. Commercial Blvd. and 441st Street in a large shopping plaza. The place is small, simple, but with an incredible flavor, WOW! We ordered a Brown Stew Chicken which had an incredible flavor, and you can't help but admire the prices😳 They don't even exist in a Chinese restaurant, no wonder there are lines of people buying their food at this place; that's why my husband and I have come to the conclusion: it's useless if the place has spectacular or extraordinary decor, if what will convince you is the flavor of their dishes. We will definitely return! Ahhh, not to mention that the service is very pleasant, the prices incredible, and the food sufficient and delicious. Why aren't these places as well-known? For their humble decor? Don't be fooled by the decor of the establishment or the dishes, focus on the flavor, which is what really counts.“

“Good was excellent They were professional and courteous I ordered boiled fish and grits and a side of peas and rice it was very good“

“Great place for vegan options at 10 pm, wonderful friendly staff and the prices are very affordable“

“Great place with wonderful authentic haitian food. Service is great, I felt very comfortable . The best server by far has to be polo ! Thank you very much for having me and my family. I ate everything as you can see in the picture. Great experience !

Parking: Great parking space.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly.“
