“ Was going to post a really nice picture but couldn’t help but dig in after sitting and enjoying the smells as soon as we walked in. My partner and I had amazing help to decide what to get (everything on the menu looked too good to pass up it was hard!) and were so very well taken care of here. If you need a sign to treat yourself with a juice this is it- the soursop was delicious and creamy, the passion fruit refreshed and prepared us for the hot day. I will be back and hope more people can show up for this delicious food served by welcoming and loving people. P.s. google is playing with me cause I’d recommend EVERYTHING here!! ”
“ The best Haitian food I’ve had in GA. Wow! I was blown away by the quality of the food. You can tell they use premium pork for the griot. Every thing was flavorful! The pikliz were spicy. The plantain was just how I like it. I absolutely recommend and will be back. It’s very affordable too I paid 16 for my meal! ”
“ This is authentic Haitian cuisine. Ended up dining by chance, thinking it was a Jamaican restaurant and yet, I am so glad I stopped in. Tried a herring pattie (not photoed) so flaky and light. Never have I ever had such tasty black rice. The flavors were great. The service was top tier and in such a beautiful space. Definitely recommend! ”
“ First time here with my family and the food and service was TOPSHELF!! Very flavorful! It's a must try we will be back! ”
“ Stopped by to get the fried chicken lunch special. Food: good lunch portion, nicely packaged and tasted wonderful. The chicken and black rice had lots of flavor and seasoned well. The last time I had Haitian food was in 2019 while on vacay in the Dominican Republic. This place did not disappoint. I will try other dishes in the very near future. I should have taken a photo. The presentation was very nice. ”
“ I came for takeout though I wished I had the time to dine in because I was immediately greeted warmly by Rose and the interior is so beautifully decorated and cultured. I'm so glad I followed my desire to try some Haitian cuisine (which was DELICIOUS). I'll be returning for sure! ”
“ As soon as I walked in I was greeted with a mouth watering smell. Needless to say the food matched up to the smell. I will definitely be back. ”
“ I came here for the first time just because I saw it as I was leaving the plaza and I’m so glad I did. I asked for recommendations because I wanted to try something new. The soursop juice with milk 10/10. The turkey stew 10/10. The rice with bean sauce/soup/ stew (not sure I’m saying it right) was 11/10. Everything was amazing. The portion sizes are so great for the price. I will be coming back ! ”
