The menu features staples such as jerk chicken, slow-cooked oxtail, and curried goat, all seasoned with a complex blend of aromatic island spices. Side dishes include staples like rice and peas, fried plantains, and festival dumplings that round out each plate. The interior setting reflects a straightforward, casual atmosphere designed to focus entirely on the delivery of these hearty, flavor-forward dishes.

This establishment provides a consistent exploration of Caribbean culinary traditions through standard island recipes served in an unfussy, accessible environment that prioritizes ingredient quality and authentic seasoning methods over decorative presentation.

This was a beautiful venue with a great atmosphere & music. Had a great combination of popular Afro-beats & Haitian music. The food had that mom & pop (at home) taste & freshness, all while boasting an elegant & classy presentation. The goat was very tender & flavourful. The Jon Jon rice was super fresh & equally flavourful. The staff was very kind in explaining the menu & the variety of authentic Haitian dishes. Highly recommended for a date, or for the guys to get a meal & start the night off with drinks.

went with my wife & son to eat at the restaurant. the service was ordinary. the griot was dry, it didn't look & taste fresh, the salad was washy, the rice tasted good & so the plantain. then i look at my bill & there's an extra six dollars charge. so i asked the waitress what was that she said they charge 2$ fees by person when eating at the restaurant. there were no place in the menu or elsewhere in the restaurant advertising you of this extra charge not even the waitress warned us about this. THAT IS CALL THEFT. no restaurant in canada has ever charge me an extra fee for eating in the restaurant. they only charge for tips.

Had an amazing time this weekend for my birthday with family & friends. The customer service was amazing & the entire staff were so friendly. The atmosphere was welcoming . The food was fresh & very flavorful. The drinks were delicious & reminded me of being in the Caribbean. The music selection had me dancing & grooving. Will definitely recommend & return. Thank you ALL for the wonderful time.

This place is overall good, but there is some basic things they are doing completely wrong 1- No second lines when you call, so if they are already on the phone when you try to call, too bad. When you are indeed able to talk to them, the service is not top tier. English or french, same outcome. 2- Extremely slow to prepare the food, I called 10 minutes in advance for a pickup, ended waiting 20 minutes inside. 3- The food quality is not consistent, 75% of the time It's delicious 10/10. The remaining 25% is the food being too dry or not tasting fresh. I often have my porc grio being way to dry. Overall I really like it, but those first 2 points are basic operational problems that should not even be existing in the first place in 2024.
