About

Kovest Resto specializes in traditional Haitian cuisine, focusing on authentic preparations of marinated meats and flavorful grains. The menu prominently features griot, consisting of succulent cubes of pork marinated in citrus and spices before being fried to a crisp finish. Diners frequently pair these protein selections with pikliz, a spicy cabbage relish that provides a sharp contrast to the savory profiles of the main courses. Large portions of legumes, stewed vegetables, and rice and beans served with rich creole sauces characterize the core culinary offerings. The establishment maintains a functional dining space suitable for experiencing these robust Caribbean flavors in a straightforward environment. Patrons find consistent execution of spice-forward dishes that represent the distinct regional cooking techniques found across Haiti.

Nous avions commandé à manger il y a 2 jours à l'heure du souper. Un plat de dinde en sauce, riz blanc & sauce de fèves, & un plat de griot riz collé. Nous avions demandé extra banane & piklizz. Uber eats nous a amené du griot sec avec bananes & de la dinde sèche avec bananes & du piklizz. Rien d'autres pour 55$. J'ai appelé au restaurant, il fallait venir nous-même chercher le reste de la nourriture. Le responsable m'a dit qu'il était trop occupé pour nous l'amener. Comme je passais dans le coin hier, j'ai arrêté au restaurant pour voir comment arranger ça. Il n'était pas question que je me fasse arnaquée de cette façon. Ils ont mis ça sur le dos de Uber eats, parce que leur marchine ne fonctionne pas. Très peu de respect pour les clients... Il a dit qu'il allait me rappeler quand ce sera plus tranquille, alors qu'il a refusé de me parler 2 jours plus tard!!! Je ne vais pas en rester là.
