With great respect for this inspiring cultural heritage, we honor it while creatively crafting our menu and working with only the freshest, highest quality foods. We believe that these culinary journeys will contribute to your happiness, one meal at a time.
Reviews portray Piklìz as a warm, intimate spot with attentive service and a vibe that blends Haitian hospitality with a cozy Montreal atmosphere. Dishes such as griot, djondjon rice, pikliz, plantains, and the creole macaroni salad draw frequent praise for bold, well balanced seasoning and tender textures, while banana donuts, accras, and the signature griot poutine are highlighted by several guests. The decor, music, and menu feel like a love letter to Haiti, and drinks and cocktails add a lively touch, with staff going the extra mile to ensure a friendly experience. Many diners say they would return, and some even use it for celebrations or as a go to Haitian option in the city, though a few reviews point out small portions for the price, occasional inconsistency in flavor or execution, and days when meals did not meet expectations. Overall, Piklìz is seen as a strong, memorable choice for Haitian cuisine in Montreal and worth another visit.
Mon amoureux & moi avons découvert par hasard ce superbe petit resto! L'ambiance, l'accueil, le DJ sur place & les goûts, wow! Bravo! Je vous recommande à 100% !!
Food is amazing but bro 30$ for a scoop of rice should be a crime rice & chicken literally cost nothing I would order there everyday if they were more generous with the portions But unfortunately

This is my absolute favorite restaurant. It's the 2nd year I go there on my birthday. It's small but very very cozy. They play really good music, I always dance while I eat. They have an incredible menu the food is 💯💯💯. They also have very delicious drinks. The staff is always kind & freindly. The owner is very nice & I just love eating at this restaurant. I lovvvee pikliz 💕💕💕
L'accueil est chaleureux, le service rapide & le serveur était particulièrement sympathique, ce qui a contribué à une bonne première impression.
Cependant, côté assiette, c'est une autre histoire. Les portions sont vraiment très petites par rapport au prix payé. Le riz était complètement raté (trop cuit)- dommage pour un accompagnement de base.
Heureusement, le griot était savoureux, bien assaisonné & tendre, un vrai point fort du repas. Par contre, ne vous attendez pas à être rassasié : une seule banane pesée vous sera servie… oui, une seule.
Genuinely enjoyable dining experience. From the excellent service, to the atmosphere (the decor!!), & of course the food. I have to say that I can't remember the last time I had a meal this well seasoned. I wished my meal never ended.
J ai bcp aimé l ambiance est chaleureux /la music/ la deco / la lumière etait très bien c etait superbe
La bouffe etait super c etait chaud j ai adoré ma poutine /les accras étaient frais all was good à refaire
Le seul bémol etait le.parking no parking dans le coin.

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.
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.
Best best best Haitian food in Montreal! Akim is a very welcoming owner, & makes you feel at home instantaneously. Highly recommend their ceviche, their griot, & their wrap. On top of it, their cocktails are awesome. Love Pikliz !!!
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.
