Review Summary

Overall, Tassot Créole garners a mix of praise and critique, with many diners calling it a worthwhile Haitian option featuring good cooking, substantial portions, quick service, and reasonable prices, and describing dishes like griot with rice and fried plantains as high quality. Some reviewers say the chicken can be bland and not well seasoned or marinated, and that the meats seem prepared to appeal to local tastes rather than staying authentically Haitian. Others point to the takeout style in the dining room and a lunch special that feels misleading. On the positive side, the food is often described as flavorful with straightforward preparation, portions that satisfy, and service that is fast, friendly, and attentive, contributing to a memorable Creole experience. Price increases are noted by some as making the experience feel a bit ridiculous or not as good value as before.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

At Au goût tropical, reviews describe very good Haitian dishes and friendly service, with praise for a welcoming atmosphere and positive experiences from past visits. The food is generally praised as very good and the service as solid, with kindness from the staff noted. One review recounts a recent griot order that arrived as a child’s portion with barely any rice and dry meat, followed by a phone call explaining that Uber Eats portions differ from in-house servings, a factor emphasized as the last time. Ambiance was linked to the delivery experience in that note. Overall, the collection of reviews points to tasty fare and warm hospitality, but a delivery mishap and portion size issue left a notably negative impression in that instance.View restaurant profile
