J'ai commandé le dombré crevette en pensant retrouver le plat de chez moi... la Guadeloupe! Malheureusement j'ai été plus que Déçu d'avoir reçu ce plat avec des crevettes cocktails... je peux comprendre qu'avec l'inflation sûrement le prix final aurait été plus élevé j'aurai préféré payer plus & avoir des vrai crevettes dans mon plat ! Le cocktail planteur il était trop dilué (peut être trop de glaçons...) Les Accras de morue trop de pâte vs morue . Je me faisais une joie d'avoir découvert un resto antillais dans les parages...

Belle ambiance sympathique... on se croirait en vacances! Nous avons mangé sur la grande terrasse. Les crevettes étaient excellentes & avons beaucoup apprécié la sangria & le mocktail au rhum.

It's was good. I was probably expecting a little more... I feel the portions are too small. We had the menu degustation for 2, & we left a little hungry. Service was low, but it's expected with a Caribbean vibe restaurant. I would def go back for drinks, though the cocktails were super good!!! My other friend had the poutine it was good the flavors were amazing, that was a good portion of poutine but it wasn't hot!!

Les cocktails sont délicieux. La nourriture est bonne mais pas excellente comme on s'y attendait. Certaines présentations sont à réviser. Cela n'empêche que c'est peut-être à réessayer. Le serveur était très patient & souriant.
