Such a beautiful warm and welcoming classy environment. Food is so on point and Marcel is amazing. He’s attentive and helps your experience feel excellent and thoughtful. The food is bussin and so authentic. As a Caribbean woman I Love this restaurant and I’m so grateful it’s in our neighborhood.

Djon Djon is an absolute gem and a true celebration of Haitian cuisine. From the moment you walk in, the aromas pull you straight into the heart of Haiti—warm, earthy, soulful, and unforgettable.
The food is outstanding. The djon djon rice is rich and deeply flavorful, perfectly seasoned with that signature mushroom essence that’s impossible to fake. Every dish tastes homemade, slow-cooked, and made with care—exactly how Haitian food should be. The meats are tender, the portions are generous, and the balance of spices is spot-on: bold without overpowering.
What really sets Djon Djon apart is the authenticity. This isn’t watered-down Caribbean food—it’s the real thing. You can tell the recipes come from tradition and pride. The staff is welcoming and kind, making you feel like family rather than just a customer.
If you’re looking for comfort food with soul, culture, and serious flavor, Djon Djon delivers every time. Whether you’re Haitian and craving a taste of home or new to Haitian cuisine and ready to be impressed, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommended. 🇭🇹🍽️🔥

SO GOOD. Highly recommend this place, it’s beautiful and great for dates. Everyone was on a date when I went in with my family. I recommend the crab cake, the coconut shrimp, the chicken sandwhich, and definitely get the Jus Corossol. Marcell our waiter was amazing.

The server (Marceaux) was EXCELLENT. He was prompt and attentive without hovering. The food (legume for me and lambi for my friend) was very good AND AND AND came before we even finished the appetizer. Speaking of Apetizer, the Akra tasted very good but could be crunchier. Not only will I come back but I would be proud to invite Haitians and non-Haitians alike.

Great experience, awesome drinks. I had the lychee martini, lemon drop, and whiskey sour. Marcel certainly knows his stuff. The Djon djon bowl and Akra were also delish. Must visit, especially when they have live band!
