The prices ONLINE need to match the physical menu at the restaurant! This place left me speechless in a bad way as well as leaving HUNGRY! The portions were sad and were more like appetizers than an entree. I can’t believe they are still in business with these practices. Lastly, the argumentative responses from the owner is heartbreaking to say the least as he takes no responsibility for the same things most are saying about this place! Want Haitian food? Go to the many ones who offer real portions that can feed two/three people for about $25-$30 not appetizer sized “meals “ for over $100! Y’all have got to do better!!!!

I really enjoyed my experience at this restaurant. We went on a Thursday night, it had a few dinners but it wasn't busy. The service was great, the restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere. The food was authentic creole, it was absolutely delicious. I will definitely be returning.

The decor is amazing, The Art on the walls are brilliant and are done by the owner , the atmosphere is upscale and let's talk about the food, it was my first time having Haitian cuisine and it blew my mind the food was excellent.. especially the black rice and the goat.The pickled pepper is a must .. will definitely go again.

Fantasy food, staff and host! Held a fundraiser dinner event on September 20th for over 100 people and everyone left with a smile and rave review for the atmosphere and food. Well done Saveur Creole!

A special place for a nice dinner out. The soup and our appetizer were fantastic, our main course was good but didn’t live up to the previous courses. This establishment is BYOB, white tablecloth, and has a lovely outdoor seating area.

Extremely expensive for what I experienced.Food is basic, nothing special about the dishes. I feel they are trying to go for that fancy restaurant vibes but it’s not giving that. It’s giving trying to be rich in 1 day but not putting in the work.I would not recommend at all.

Where do I start?? I love Creole food and all the items we ordered were delicious, so no complaints there. Ambience was also pretty good, kind of in between fine dining and family friendly. Unfortunately, I cannot give 5 Stars simply because we had a really bad experience w.r.t. upselling by our Waitress. We all expect the staff to upsell but it should not be done in an underhanded manner.Our visit was almost a year back (just catching up on some of my pending reviews). We were never given an option of Tap or Bottled water, and the waitress just filled our glasses whenever we asked for water, but she failed to mention it was Bottled water ($5 per Bottle). She also asked us if we would like Regular or Black Rice, to be served with our Entrées, but didn't mention that it was additional cost ($15). We were in for a rude surprise when we got the cheque since it was at least $100 more than what we expected.Manager/Owner did eventually take it off the final cheque but it took some lengthy discussion. This might be an one-off scenario, and hope other patrons didn't experience this.

Very fine dining, delicious food, excellent service, beautiful plating and atmosphere. A bit on the expensive side but absolutely worth it!

This place is such a huge disappointment for a Haitian own restaurant. Overprice small portion and not much taste to the food. Service very subpar. My food was serve a bit cold and seem to be microwave. Seems like their only goal is to make a dollar. Don’t waste your time and money of you’re truly want the Haitian experience. Never will I go back again.

Place is lovely. Ambiance definitely there. Food is wonderful my mother a master chef gave it a 10/10. ? Owner and staff are very professional, courteous and humorous. Above all its ADA friendly and we’re able to accommodate my disabled nephew. Great job to this establishment!

I don't usually eat spicy food but what I ordered was tolerable and delicious. I loved it when everyone sang a special happy birthday song to me since I went on my birthday. The only thing I wasn't happy about was the long wait to get water and refills

I hate having to do this but,I can only give them 1 star the food is good, but not worth these ridiculous prices!!!! Let me start by saying they keep changing the prices but it's never reflected on the online menu, nor do they tell you on the phone. I can not believe I paid an extra $12 for rice. I ordered fried goat) and a Haitian beef veggie stew and neither of these dishes came with rice. They use to give you a salad and a soup along with the main dish and almost all the dishes came with rice. I know everything has gone up in price, but for some small pieces of goat $40 and then $12 for rice, $52 wow. I will not be coming back here. I would rather pay the toll and go to "Rebel" a high-end Haitian restaurant in NYC, with a live DJ. Great vibes and amazing food. Honestly the food is better and the prices are reasonable goat with 2 sides for $34.
