Today was my second time there and I was turned off by the disrespect I received from a male worker. I asked him not to put a spicy item in my bag, and commented that I think it's gross. He cut me off and said "No, it's not...don't be retarded. Ummm No, Sir.

Food was ok, I wasn't impressed thou. High priced with very small food portions and especially with the proteins!

Today was my first time trying this place and I will definitely be going back! The food was amazing and taste fresh even though it's almost 6pm. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 is because they forgot my plantains. Otherwise the food is great!

All the reviews are a hit!!! They truly deserve all 5 stars!! Like others I randomly came across this gem. I'm from the caribbean and I love to support my people. The food is favorful and definitely will have you traveling back. I had the black rice, stewed oxtail (a little different than I would have it but it was still delicious), mac & cheese which I loved, because I make mines similar and plantains. The lady at the counter was warm and welcoming. I would definitely be back whenever I'm in the area.

I just happen to come across this place by accident. I had to meet someone in the area at the wawa across the street. Figured instead of waiting in the lot to check out what the plaza next store had to offer. Great idea that was when I seen this place! I looked on yelp to see what tome they close and what the food looked like. It said they close 10pm it was 9:36pm. I walk in and the owner was heading out. Asking how can she help me. This gorgeous lady told me they closed at 9pm and the info online is incorrect. Yet she still asked can she offer me anything that she had left. I ended up with the oxtail which was f****ing great omfg lol this has to be the best I've had. The savory broth had so much flavor. It reminded me of the food in lil Haiti in Miami! They did such a good job on everything. I also had black rice which was my first time it was great with sweet plantains. She also added a free potato salad (which tasted great) i love the hospitality. All in all worth the trip coming from philly. Great service, family owned hospitable people. I fell in love with they're food and look forward to coming back to get more off the menu!

Food was great!! The people were really kind too. As a suggestion, order ahead and still show up a bit later as I experienced extended wait time each time I preordered. Other than this, bomb!

Don't have a picture but my family and I just around this area. We order from the Haitian American place twice and the FOOD was on point loved it. They are friendly and nice family.
Perfection all around! I happened upon this place on yelp, but of course, have had so many wins this way :-) We were doing a job in the area and this came up with a menu that could accommodate my current diet restrictions. I haven't had Haitian food in a while because my go to spot is no longer in my travels so it was a long time coming. I order the fried snapper and soup joumou, my fiance had the griot with djon djon (black rice), his workers had it with rice w/ sos pwa (bean sauce). I called in the order, they confirmed I was ok with the wait since the fish is made to order, I was fine with that and appreciated them asking although I knew it was likely. They are located in a small flat mall with plenty of parking, when I got there my order was ready and put packaged nicely, she still went through my order with me to make sure everything was there. The place was large, airy, and clean, the staff who helped me was friendly and helpful. When I got in the car, the short drive back to the site the food filled my car it smelled SO good, I was so excited to dig in. Everyone enjoyed their food, like to the point that we went back the following week, and are ready to go back again. I'm very familiar with Haitian food, I grew up on it, this place definitely has my stamp of approval, and I'm actually so glad that I went when I did because normally I wouldn't have ordered fish, but I am so happy I did, this was by far the BEST fried snapper I have had in the state. period. I cannot wait to come back here it's been on my mind ever since. I would recommend to any and everyone.

In the midst of a pandemic this restaurant might be by far the worst when it comes safety first. Upon walking in the first thing i noticed that no one is wearing a mask, all the mask that everyone is wearing is under their chin. No one is wearing gloves while handling food. Customer are walking and not being encouraged to wear their mask, and children walking in and out with no mask either. If you have anxiety when it comes to Covid-19 safety then this restaurant is not for you.

Drove over an hour from Pennsylvania and I will definitely be back! Edited to add: I drove so far because I was tired of the places in Philly either giving me attitude, being questionably dirty, or both! I called ahead to order and they were really polite, professional, and friendly on the phone. I was warmly greeted when I entered the restaurant and my meal was hot and ready for take-out. Portion sizes were favorable and all pricing was more than fair! It was meticulously clean inside and I felt safe eating food from there, especially during COVID. I only wish that I lived closer.

Being from North Jersey going to school down here, this place has given me a taste of home. Top tier Haitian food, reminds me of my own family's cooking. I'm willing to drive that 20 mins to get it, it's that good!

This was my first time trying this place and I grew up in North Jersey with my Haitian family so I am very familiar with the way things should taste and be seasoned and this brought my back home. The Potato Soup was so delicious and the meat was seasoned very well. I would recommend trying this to anyone who is skeptical. I am hooked!! I will be back :)
