Tried this place on a whim while walking down the street, best decision ever! The griot Mac n cheese is some of the best comfort food I've had ever. I had this yesterday & I'm actually tempted to go back again today for more I can't stop thinking about it… 10/10 recommend, glad to have found this gem!

amazing food & great service! while there was no menu in english, the owner was very nice & explained everything to us. also we just googled some menu items so really no issue there. no cocktails were available unfortunately :((
food was also very tasty & the portions were a good size. the goat was flavorful & fried to perfection. the pork, similar to the goat, was also very good & had the same sides. the shrimp creole spaghetti reminded me of classic homecooking, the flavors & spices balanced out nicely. the chicken was juicy & had lots of fried goodies on the side. overall this was a very comforting meal. highly recommend coming here if you get the chance!!

This restaurant is a gem, the food is absolutely incredible!! Rich, flavorful, & so satisfying. I had the mac & cheese, griot, plantains, rice, & every bite was perfect. The griot & the mac & cheese was comfort food at its best. On top of that, the service was outstanding. The staff were warm, welcoming, & genuinely kind. It's family owned, & you can feel the care in both the food & the atmosphere. I 100% recommend this place & will definitely be coming back.

My partner & I visited this restaurant on a trip to Montreal. The owner (?) was so kind & helpful to find something I could eat (& enjoy) as a vegetarian - even bringing out a little sample before I decided my order. The food was delicious, & my partner (who is part Haitian) was so happy with the flavours. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a taste of Haiti 🤍

This place is a hidden gem. The owner was super friendly & the food was fantastic. We tried a little bit of everything & recommend it all. Loved how the salmon was pan friend & the spaghetti creole was the surprise favorite of the table. Strongly recommend.

That was one of the best food that I had on a restaurant. It brings me back so many good memories of my family. Amazing food with a touch of home made food the same way that Brazilians like to do. I totally recommend everyone to try this & enjoy the delicious plates that they have. +100 starts!
