Mon mari m'a fait la surprise de réserver au Kwizinn & c'était une soirée parfaite! L'endroit est magnifique, & la dj a fait d'excellents choix musicaux pour créer une bonne ambiance, tout en nous permettant de pouvoir discuter agréablement. Le service était exceptionnel, amical & professionnel à la fois, & côté nourriture, on s'est régalés! C'était recherché & réconfortant à la fois, très goûteux & fait avec amour. Définitivement, on y reviendra. Merci chéri pour la belle découverte! 🙂

Took a 3 day birthday vaca to Montreal & felt for some hatian food. After eating Cora's the previous day i was in the mood for a taste bud sensation. The jamaican oxtail & lobster tail was spectacular 😋. The plantain was so yummy. The pink colada was passable not like the islands but pretty good. The waitress took her sweet time to attend to us but at least didn't cuss us out cough cough yeah you Jamaicans. Very happy will return

The service was personalized, quick & amazing. The food came quickly. We had the jamaixan & Haitian patties… both beyond delicious. Lobster pasta was good but the lobster was a bit overcooked. The plantain burger was juicy & delicious ! The drinks were also very tasty. Definitely worth the price. Will go back!

The service & vibe of the restaurant are great. Food though was a big let down, below average & overpriced. The place definitely caters to tourists. If quality Caribbean food is what you are looking for in Montreal, go elsewhere.

Quelle déception! J'avais été lorsque c'était localisé à Verdun & j'avais été très satisfaite. Cette fois, le riz djondjon était remplit de sable, comme si les champignons n'avaient pas été lavés. Pâtes au homard avec une sauce qui avait l'air diluée & sans goût. C'était froid. Le dessert un espèce de bout de pain style buns avec une crème fouettées & caramel. C'était horrible. Je l'ai même dit au serveur & j'ai même demandé si c'était les mêmes propriétaires que Verdun. Over over price! C'est vraiment du vol! On parle des drinks? Le goût y est mais la quantité est une vraie farce! Un petit verre de 8oz remplit de glace donc l'équivalent de 2 gorgées.
Très déçue & jamais j'y retournerai. On paie très cher pour leur décision d'être localisé au Vieux-Montreal.

Wonderful Haitian Griot!! This place is the fanciest Caribbean restaurant I've been in! Wow! I was looking for comfort Haitian food. I did find it! On a whole other level!! The Griot was melt in your mouth, & the portions were generous (as they should be for the price). You do have to order a plate of rice to go with it 😢If you want Haitian food in a five star restaurant you found it! The atmosphere is amazing. Our server was very attentive, but not over the top. Clean, bright. If you're looking for Haitian street food, this is not that place! Looking for Haitian food meets Rodeo Drive, this is the place! 100%
You do get what you pay for here, & it is amazing! Just not what I was expecting. Great job Kwizinn on taking Caribbean food to a whole other level.
**This reminds me of going to a five star restaurant & having a club sandwich. Why you say? It was a whole other level… a breast of chicken on each half of the sandwich, & thick melting havarti cheese, thick deli smoked bacon ** Kwizinn is that same kinda place!! Enjoy!

Good food, outstanding service. Flavours were on point but portion sizes a bit small for the price. Would recommend nevertheless for the unique dishes & gorgeous location.

Cet avis concerne le kiosque du restaurant situé sur la promenade du Vieux Port, devant le Centre des sciences. Vraiment, le repas était excellent. La portion était généreuse.

I celebrated my birthday here (large group of about 20 people) & every single person LOVED the experience. I highly recommend the tasting menu, it was an incredible bang-for-buck. The food was absolutely amazing, the place is gorgeous as well with a nice atmosphere. Chef Mike helped me set up the reservation & he was amazing & so helpful. A total 10/10 experience. The music was also a 10/10, the server was so patient & sweet too (even though some of the guests were very late & kept changing seats. I was a server once, & that can be a lot to deal with but our server did it with a smile).

They have a speakeasy in the resto too, which I would have totally visited but unfortunately we had reservations at a club so we had to leave.

Chef Mike, if you ever see this you are a total rockstar! Not only will I be back but I will continue to recommend your resto to every person I meet!

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.

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.
