I’ve been to many Haitian restaurants BUT this one tops ALL. Never have I ever been to a Haitian restaurant where the customer service and the food is top tier. I drive an hour just for GOU! Not to mention my fav chef is there shout out to Chef Fay. You are amazing Fay. You guys keep growing and doing your thing.

So I ordered the Rasta pasta with chicken and the griot to go. I got in the car, tasted the food, turned around and walked right back in to order more. The food is OMG…no words at all. The best food I have ever had. Hands down.

Had an amazing experience here! The customer service was great! Great energy, It felt like I was home with the good music, but with just better food and decor. I love the plantain cups, Mac and cheese, the rice and the passion fruit juice.The turkey that I ate was a little tough and just a little salty.(Bathroom needed a bit of cleanup.)We came later in the evening, so they had ran out of a few things.Overall a great experience, I look forward to dining there again!

Our church had a large fellowship meal catered by Gou. It was absolutely incredible. We have a very diverse congregation culturally, most has never had Asian food before but everyone was a HUGE fan. By far the best fellowship meal we’ve ever had. There was plenty of food, it was hot and fresh, and it was delicious. 5 stars from us! Gou is a pleasure to work with and I hope we can make room in our budget for more catered meals like this.

I definitely enjoyed the food there. Thank you to the Chef for coming out and greeted Us, as this was my first time at their location. I would definitely recommend anyone to stop there and grab a plate of food.

My husband and I had an overall very good first experience at Gou Restaurant. The food was delicious and the staff very friendly!We just found the music a bit too loud (despite being the farthest away possible from the speakers) — it was hard to chat without talking very loudly (hence the 4 stars for the atmosphere).
