I thought it was really good. The meat was overcooked but you have to remember that is how they cook it in Caribbean countries. Lots of flavor, the meat gravy was really good.

Good food- one if the best Haitian food in Ottawa! Clean!!!Now the place could be looking a little better and always almost empty when I go there as most pickup or do delivery.Vegetarian options: Legume without meatDietary restrictions: Yes vegan optionKid-friendliness: Yes
This is my favorite Haitian resto. The only problem is the macaroni is always spoiled. I love it with the plate all together so I get disappointed when I open it and it smells spoiled or like it isn’t kept refrigerated. All of the food on the menu is excellent I have never been disappointed with my whole meal just the macaroni. I hope the owner sees this and makes a change I don’t have the heart to tell them in person because they are so nice. I eat or order weekly and won’t change this in 2024. All the best in the new year!

The djon djon rice was dry (good flavour though), plantains were cooked perfectly but tasted like they were fried in old oil. I’ll give the restaurant another try in the future because it seems authentic, and the staff are very kind. Hoping it was just a one-

I ordered dinner from Skip for delivery, and when it arrived, the meat was so hard that I couldn't eat it, and also the plantin that it seemed like it might shatter my tooth. They called only to cuss at me and hung up; when I left a comment on Skip. It was extremely disrespectful. The sauce was bad, the rice was bland.

I’ve had Haitian food everywhere, but this place is the best if there was a 10 star option, I would put it ? highly recommended if you’re in the area

2 ladies running the place. I got the special with fried pork and it was soooooo good. It came with this delicious sauce as well. If you havnt been yet, go go go!

such a good place to eat! everything is so flavorful and delicious. there is lots of love put into these dishes. my only complaint is that I wish there was more of that spicy pickled cabbage in my plate! so yummy! generous portions as well

I was very disappointed in the food. Drove in from a weekend in Toronto to get dinner, wanted to support a Haitian business, but they completely missed the mark. Dry and tasteless food. Sadly, service was the only good thing that day.
Excellent Haitian food, our family's favourite.
