    “I'm not usually one to dish out five star reviews like candy, but I'm beyond thoroughly impressed. It was genuinely the best food I've ever tasted. I didn't know that was a thing I would say. I sound... Extremely pretentious right now, but it's a luxurious and excellent place to eat that takes you surprisingly few dollars. (My dad got the Arroz con Pollo de la Charrera, and I got the Β«El Poquito de TodoΒ», we both got deserts, and we didn't crack 50 bucks.) Our server Cristian was excellent, he was very attentive and not afraid to talk to us! We're certainly not from the area. Me and my father are going on a roadtrip from Tennessee (we drove up to NYC in 1.5 days!!) to Vermont, to use every single day of my Fall Break. So, considering that, it's unfair for me to recommend it over other places here. I'll get around that by recommending it over every place this side of the Mississippi! Seriously. You aren't gonna regret eating here. The mains are amazing, extremely flavorful and well-seasoned without being overly strong. The plantains, especially, are literally good enough to make you cry. The pastel de tres leches is also nothing short of phenomenal. I'm not a drinker, but they had a very extensive collection of high-branded wines and a lovely looking bar. Any dish you try here will change your life. Go on! Try it!”

    “Great food, great staff & service, great atmosphere! The owners were WONDERFUL and very accommodating. I hosted a small private event in the eat-in area. The space is clean with a bathroom and small bar space, music and a big screen on the wall. I don't eat much Haitian food but really enjoyed the griot and the patties. Will definitely be back to enjoy some of the regular events hosted by the restaurant.”

    “This place has been in business since 2001 and the owners are blessed ?? to still be up and running. I was 19 when I first ate from here and I am almost 40 years old. The owners have always been good people and they never hiked up the price to rob the community. This tray was considered small and it was priced at $11 and the drink was $2.50. To be able to enjoy a delicious meal for that price is a blessing ?? I was able to eat 3x out of this one tray! Meat tender mac and cheese cheesy it's flavorful as hell! Wishing this establishment many more years of serving and servicing the community!”

    “Nestled in a small neighborhood, the location is unassuming but is a neighborhood gem. They have all of the traditional Caribbean eats plus a few items that I've never seen before. The ox tails were spectacular (will go back for those) and the mac n cheese was snap! The rice and peas were a little al dente and unfortunately the greens were gritty (not in any way saying that they are all the time, just happened to be this time) but had super great flavor and perfect texture. I will need going back to try more of their selection next time I'm in Bayonne,NJ”

    “I usually order from here being that it is the only carribean food place in the area. The food is good for the most part. The service use to be very slow but it has now improved and it's very fast. They have tables inside where you can sit if you want but it's a very small restaurant. The food is hit or miss but today it was a hit. I ordered the curry goat with rice and peas, cabbage and plantain. I usually order the oxtail but you won't go wrong with curry goat which I call the poor man's oxtail.”
