Review Summary

Reviews of Paul Toussaint / Agrikol highlight generous portions and bold flavors. Griot is described as juicy with little fat, plantain is fresh, pikliz bright, and accra a welcome side. A common note is the absence of sauce with the platter, which some reviewers miss. The oxtail is praised for depth of flavor and is easy to share. Some diners describe portions as tiny for certain dishes and question value for money. L'Haitien and soupe joumou receive strong praise for authenticity and exceptional taste. The setting is a busy food court with fast service, and service quality is mixed, sometimes unfriendly. Overall, many feel the dishes are worth trying, with well balanced spice and variety, though portions and the lack of sauce can be drawbacks.View restaurant profile
