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.

Pikliz feels like a neighbourhood restaurant with good food & great service.

On our first visit, the restaurant was full due to a big party (it's a small but comfy space). We asked Anna for a nearby recommendation & she came through with Satay Brothers, which was delicious!

We came back a few nights later, this time with a reservation, & enjoyed a really good meal. We tried a little bit of everything. The standouts for me were the hot sauce (which you can buy), pikliz, djondjon rice (wow!), banana donuts, macawoni, the mango cocktail, & griot.

Anna was a wonderful host & took great care of us! Really loved the music too.

Went there for lunch on a Friday & it was quite quiet & comfortable. The restaurant was small & intimate & we ordered a Malta Creole, a ceviche, the chicken wings, some taco-like dish & a special Haitian version of Mac & cheese. Everything tasted delicious & we were pleasantly surprised.

Tasty food, fun visual identity, good vibes. I went in when the restaurant was empty. My food was ready in under five minutes, chicken was nicely seasoned, tender. The rice was perfectly cooked & the sauce was rich without being fatty or overly salty.

Can't recommend this place enough! We ordered a variety of dishes (the pate, plantains, wings, the djondjon rice, the pikliz poutine with goat) & they were all incredible. Everyone was super friendly & the vibes were great.

Amazing meal & experience here! Food was exceptionally well seasoned, crafted. Anna provided beyond attentive service while making everyone in the restaurant feel seen. Running the whole show, she provided background on the establishment, delivered conversation with warmth & offered the best of the cuisine with a smile. All of this together made this restaurant my favorite in Montreal.
