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.

Haitian know good food - & this spot really hit the mark. It's a small but lively place full of good energy. The griot was tender, the acras perfectly crispy & flavorful, & the bowls were generous & filling. The cocktail list was fun, with drinks named after Port-au-Prince neighborhoods & cities. Chef Mike is great, but Anna truly made the whole experience special.
If I had one small note, it would be the beignets - they leaned more toward a donut texture than a traditional marinade. Other than that, everything was on point. We went as a group & everyone loved their dish. I'll definitely be back!

Pikliz made me sikliz. Been here a few times. Super small seating area. Lived up to the hype for a while but dropped way off as soon as they opened the new bar in Mile End. Had me running the last mile home before it was coming out both ends.

Visiting from out of town, this was suppose to be the highlight of our trip. Unfortunately, my guests & I were left disappointed.

Let's start off with the positive, the cocktails were definitely on point! We were all wowed by our selections. The server was amazing, & very attentive.

The food however just did not make the mark. All of the meats with exception of the griyo lacked flavour. From my experience Haitian food is filled with savory tastes. The rice had the right colour's, but definitely needed salt, & a little more finesse with the essence. The food may have followed the process to make it, but it was lacking soul. Are Haitians even cooking the meal?

Safe to say, we probably won't be revisiting anytime soon.

super bon, mais beaucoup trop chere pour un resto haitien. extra sauce & pikliz pour 28$ sans le tips. c'est bon comme experience, mais pour du soulfood a 30$ avec des petite assiettes comme cela, c'est ordinaire. aussi bien aller au petit sud a st-michel pour 20$ tu as le double de la portions, plus de plaintain plus de viande. la seule difference est la tendreter de la viande. mais super bon quand meme.
