Our dinner at Kwizinn was exceptional! The cocktails & food were delicious. We chose their special price fixe table (Table d'hôte) option. The oxtail empanada, ceviche, fried pork griot, picanha steak were excellent. There was also live music - a mix of jazz, samba, & Caribbean music - which made dinner extra nice. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for dinner in Old Montreal, just one block away from the most crowded locations there, but close to everything.

This is an ideal place for experiencing a typical Caribbean cuisine in style.

un genre de shaker antillais, avec les différentes saveurs de plusieurs pays ce fut une belle expérience, ambiance festive, pour ceux qui aiment la musique.

Tried the Kwizinn food truck while walking through Old Port & was pleasantly surprised. At $21, the griot plate seemed a bit steep at first-but honestly, it delivered. They use a different cut than your typical griot: four big, fatty, juicy pieces of pork, perfectly cooked & packed with flavor. The riz collé was moist & delicious, not dry like you sometimes get. I'm usually not big on pikliz, but theirs hit the spot-just the right balance of acidity & heat without being overpowering. We also tried the plantain burger, which was super original & full of flavor. All in all, a delicious & memorable stop. Would definitely come back.

This place changed my g'dmn life.
No, seriously, that is how this place felt.

Came to Montréal & I fell in love, not with the city but with Kwizinn itself.
My daughter & I were recommended by friends to come here, & we wandered in at dinner time on a quiet Sunday evening. We had not really checked the menu/prices beforehand, but I think had we, we might have been scared off & not gone.
The atmosphere is immaculate. Their location is a beautifully decorated space near but not on the main road of Old Montréal. On one side of the restaurant is a larger group seating are & on the other is a more intimate dining room where the bar & floor to ceiling windows give you views of the square. From the flowers on the table to the color of the benches, you can tell everything in this place has been carefully chosen to reflect the type of restaurant they want to be.

It is kid friendly, but older kids; not like the ones that would scream. The wait staff was so attentive, too. Our waitress (I'm sorry I forgot your name!) was lovely & had so many recommendations for us based on our likes & dislikes. Water glasses were never empty, the table was cleared promptly, & questions were asked in great detail. Not in an irritating way, in an I see you & I care kind of way. It was genuine, & you can tell they really enjoy & love what they do.

All this, & I haven't even gotten to the food yet. My god.
The yucca fries & the sauce - definitely got my kid to eat her vegetables. The plantain burger made her eyes water both from spice but also love. & the Cornish hen with the sauce & grilled pineapple... wooooww. It was so tender & juicy while retaining the smoke & char of how it had been cooked. At the end of all that, they recommended dessert. I wasn't hungry, but we ate the beignets anyways. To round out the night, we were fortunate enough to take in their regular Sunday night Cuban band. It was a wonderful experience & we can honestly say that we might make a trip back just for the food.

Excellent restaurant haitien & des caraibes! Un menu hors de l'ordinaire & un service A++ de la part de la co-propriétaire. Je recommande définitivement.
