2 étoiles 1/2 en réalité
Je recommanderai fortement ce restaurant si vous voulez prendre un dessert .les crêpes étaient succulentes .
Pour le brunch nous étions 4 personnes & chacun de nos plats étaient fades & sans saveur : la crêpe du chef n avait aucune épice . Le poulet dans la crêpe semblait bouilli uniquement . Le riz haitien aucune épice , la ratatouille non plus aucune saveur .La salade artibonite avait trop de sauce .
Les 2 serveuses s alternaient & semblaient complètement débordées pourtant quand on est arrivées le restaurant n étaient pas encore plein . L attente était longue également. pour avoir nos lattes on a du rappeler à la serveuse numéro 2 qu' on avait commandé depuis un moment avec la serveuse 1 .
En résumé j y retournerai uniquement pour les desserts / un snack en passant . Pas pour un repasView more

I had the pleasure of dining at THIS Haitian Bistro, & it was truly an unforgettable experience. The spices in the dishes warmed the soul, & the chef was just as warm & accommodating, making us feel right at home. We started with the bread soup, which was an explosion of flavor-rich, comforting, & full of depth. It was more than just a dish; it was an experience. Even the PURE chocolate dessert exceeded expectations, adding a perfect touch to our meal. The vibe inside was absolutely ideal for a date, with a cozy & welcoming atmosphere that made the evening feel even more special. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy flavors in a charming setting!View more

Its a cute spot to have some chocolate desserts & its just opposite to water so you can have a great view. But I did not like the cappuccino & it was 9 dollars excluded taxes. Also I ordered take away but they dont have proper disposable glasses. They should have mentioned that before taking the order. Not worth it to spend this much for that kind of coffee.View more

Such a cute spot with great food & desserts. We had the Maïs a la Bonne Femme, hot chocolate (try the spicy one but it is actually spicy!), the dulce de leche crepe & a salted caramel truffle. Everything was delicious & the staff was so friendly when we came in just before closing. Would recommend stopping by!View more

Beautiful little bistro with limited but flavorful dishes ( great Haitian potage). Nice selection of french crepes & of course chocolate desserts( didn't try). Delicious pisco sour! Lovely attentive service & wonderful, cozy decor looking out to lake. Will definitely return! Should add daily menu & offer a salad option or two.View more

Makaya is an incredible Haitian bistro with delicious chocolate, desserts, food, & drinks. The atmosphere is warm & cozy, with a beautiful view over the old part of Canal Lachine. We ordered hot chocolate, frappés, savoury chicken & cheese crêpes, & bought some desserts to-go - everything was amazing! While we were there during the evening, & happened to catch a beautiful view of the sunset over the water, it also makes for a great spot for a coffee break &/or brunch.View more
