"Food is exceptional here! Always fresh, always flavorful and always delicious. My favorite on their menu is the fried turkey (well done) with brown rice and beans. The large comes with potato salad and if I order the small, I just add the potatoe salad as an extra. I order from this restaurant 2x a week and I tell everyone about them. Do not hesitate to give them a try! Also, if you need certain accommodations with your order, just give them a call directly after; to submit your request. This is a "Chef's Kiss" restaurant."
"First time and the rice and beans were delicious and comforting. The fish was a little salty. Also, this particular order i only received a fish head. I thought i was getting a whole snapper. That should be stated. I do not like fish head, but i ate it. The pate, was a delight. Yummy, flaky. I just ordered 8 more this Am. Thank you"

"Best Dominican food in Bayonne.. the sandwiches and small fried appetizers are always amazing. They make the best lemonade. And so affordable. I love this spot."
"I was disappointed with my meal overall. The Pernil / Roast Pork and Tostones were both very dry, and the Jugo de Mango was so tart that it was difficult to enjoy. I also expected more from the Chicken Soup / Sopa de Pollo—it contained one small potato and didn’t feel very hearty. On a positive note, the Bistec Encebollado / Carmelized Onion Steak was delicious and full of flavor. The rice and beans were also very good, and the Maduros were absolutely delicious. Unfortunately, the dry meats and disappointing soup overshadowed the meal, so I don’t think I’ll be returning."

"I eat at a lot of places and this place is always my favorite. Everything is perfectly seasoned. They also add a citrusy sauce on top of the Fritay platters which makes it stand out from all of the other Haitian restaurants. The food has been consistently fresh for YEARS and the portions are good for the price. I will always order from here. My only thing is on the DoorDash app it asks you if you want a side of fries or rice and I put a side of rice but I didn't receive it. Also, I asked for extra pikliz and didn't receive it and was charged for it. The food was good enough that I didn't even care but that's just something to consider if it's your first time ordering Haitian food. Everything was perfection overall."
"Good was amazing. The Pumpkin Soup really hit the spot on a rainy day! The Griot ak Diri Kole was cooked perfectly and the Legeme Militon ak Diri Nwa was super flavorful. The only down side was there were 2 massive bones in the Legeme Militon ak Diri Nwa. When paying so much it would be nice to have a full serving."
