About

Restaurant Piklìz serves authentic Haitian cuisine anchored by the vibrant heat of traditional scotch bonnet pepper condiments. The menu showcases classic island staples including crispy griot, tender oxtail, and expertly seasoned red snapper served alongside aromatic rice and beans. Plantains are prepared to a perfect golden crisp, providing a structural counterpoint to the rich, slow-cooked meat profiles defined by complex marinade blends. Fresh citrus notes and bold spices dominate each dish, emphasizing deep Caribbean flavor profiles crafted from high-quality ingredients. The interior environment remains straightforward and functional, keeping the focus entirely on the culinary output and the bold intensity of the regional seasonings. Diners experience an unapologetic exploration of Haitian culinary techniques through hearty portions that reflect the genuine spirit of traditional Caribbean comfort cooking.

We really enjoyed our time at Piklìz! The atmosphere was quaint, the service was lovely & the food delicious!
We really loved the Poul BBQ, which was just the right amount of spicy 😊
We'd definitely come back here in the future!

the food was very tasty. inflation is a thing but there is no way you can make people pay 25 30 $ for a plate & you barily fill anything in it...yet alone rice which costs nothing to make...ive joined a picture of what a 28$ plate looks like... disappointed but the potential is there. fix your portions & it will be amazing. chicken plate was the same portions. also. mini macaroni, mini pikliz, mini plate at prices that make no sense for the size.

Very delicious meat, but the portion size is way too small.

J'ai commandé le « Combo Malé-Poul Frit » & les beignets aux bananes. Honnêtement, j'ai rarement mangé quelque chose d'aussi bon, c'était magnifique: le poulet était tendre, les plantains étaient parfaitement salés & croustillants, les sauces étaient parfaitement assaisonnées, les beignets aux pommes étaient moelleux à l'intérieur & croustillant à l'extérieur justeeee Bravo!!!

Ive been to Pikliz on multiple occasions & not only is the service top tier & friendly, the food is also delicious & flavorful. The drink selection is unique, tropical & makes you forget for an instance that you're in Montreal. Most special is the vibe. It feels like home, only better. There's a level of comfort & acceptance you feel when you're there, but it's also a party. Highly recommend for any occasion or even just a night out.

We stopped to grab takeout while travelling through Montreal en route to Toronto & will now be making a stop at Pikliz a tradition. The food was amazing! Glad I purchased a couple extra orders of rice to bring back with me. The griot & the goat poutine were fantastic, & the patties were so light & delicious. 10/10.

Petite place sympa à aller manger entre amis ou en amoureux. Le griots était bon. Le riz djon djon était bon. L'endroit est très bien aménagé & charmant donnant une bonne ambiance. Quoi que ça peut être chère pour les portions données. Pikliz, endroit à découvrir. Nice little place to eat with friends or lovers. The griots were good. The djon djon rice was good. The place is very well appointed & charming giving a good atmosphere. Although it can be expensive for the portions given. Pikliz, place to discover.
