“ Welcomed with a smile and seated pleasantly with a stunning view. The service was great, the food was impeccable and the restaurant was beautiful with beautiful interior design. ”
“ This food was so good! I had the grilled chicken with djon djon rice and everything on the plate was hitting — the plantain, the pikliz, the sauce — all of it. I also tried the goat and it was fire! The only thing I’d say is I wish they gave a little more chicken cause I ran out of meat before I ran out of rice. But I’m definitely coming back next time just to get the goat plate on its own. Highly recommend if you’re in Paris and want some real Haitian food. ”
“ The food is very tasty and the portions are very generous. The salad is one the best ever with some spice added into it. A few items were out of stock which was disappointing and the wines aren’t good, I’d skip those next time. ”
“ IF YOU ARE IN PARIS, YOU MUST VISIT THIS SPOT. I had to pay for a very expensive Uber to get here, but it was so worth it. I was first greeted by the music and then the smells. A reservation is highly recommended, especially if you wish to sit upstairs. The fish was well done, moist, and perfectly seasoned. Yum! I was offered three different types to choose from. Everything was perfect ... The plantains, the rice, and the sauce. My companion had the beef with okra, and it didn't disappoint. This was one of the best culinary experiences I've had at a Haitian restaurant. Music is continuously playing, and eventually, it spills out to the street so passers-by can join in. Yes, there's sidewalk seating. I will be back. Enjoy ! ”
“ The food transported me straight to the Caribbean. The flavors and textures of the food were excellent, service was fast and the restaurant has a very nice interior decor. They also give you a generous portion as well. I am now really interested in trying more Haitian food. ”
