The food was delish. The hummus is a must, it's smooth and had with 3 different flavors it's fun to share. Went to eat for a girl's dinner, shared 3 apps and 2 kabob plates. We got hummus, chonch fritters and cheese mannish. The hummus and fritters were great, would definitely order again. The cheese mannish was not what I expected, it was good it's was like a flat bread pizza. (We were expecting a dip.) The prawns kebob's were cooked perfect, and tender and juicy. The salad was nice. The lamb kebob's were slightly over cooked. Definitely give this place a try! It's definitely worth you're time.

Went here on Friday night with my cousin and this place does not disappoint. The food was so amazing especially the macaroni and cheese. It had to be the best macaroni cheese I’ve ever had in my life. As a Haitian American, I know that Caribbean food takes a long time to make, and this is worth the weight. The staff was so sweet and the owner was so sweet. They gave us a complementary sample of their soup. The fried pork a.k.a. Griot, was cooked in a different way and it was so delicious. I will 100% be going there again.

I usually don't write negative review, but this resturant really left me a mixed feeling. The pricing is comparable to a fine-dining restaurant, but the atmosphere/service feels more like a fast-casual spot where you quickly grab lunch. The food quality was fine, but it wasn’t impressive enough to justify the cost. The pictures uploaded by the owner are defintely misleading and I don't understand why the rating is so high. Additionally, the listed price range of $30–50 seems inaccurate. It’s likely averaged down by the under-$20 lunch wraps they offer, but in reality, a full dinner experience falls closer to $50–100 per person. Service was slow, and some staff seemed inexperienced. Our beverages were forgotten initially, and our main dishes arrived before the appetizers. While these issues might be understandable at a $10–30 restaurant, we spent nearly $150 (before tip). The restaurant was also not warm enough, and we felt even quite cold after our grilled dishes — and still not full, so we ended up grabbing pho on the way home. The resturant furnishing looked quite ordinary, even slightly cheap in places, which felt very different from the cozy, polished ambiance shown in the owner’s photos. The space also felt somewhat chaotic, with items piled near the bar and by the restroom entrance. The foods are definitely overpriced considering the portion, presentation and taste: For appetizers, we ordered the plantain with pork, and the chicken wings. The plantain was flavorful, with a nice balance of sweetness, savoriness, and a bit of spice from the pickled cabbage on top. However, there were only three slices, which felt quite limited for the price. The chicken wings only had five small pieces, with just two drumettes. It left us wondering what happened to the rest one. For the mains, we had the chicken kebab and the lamb shank. The chicken kebab came with only one skewer for $27 and tasted rather bland. The lamb shank(45$) was a generous portion, and the potato (with a pleasant lemon flavor) was actually quite good. However, the presentation lacked priority. Both dishes were arranged with protein, carbs, and nearly half a plate of simple green salad. For a $45 entrée, the main ingredient should feel more thoughtfully highlighted. They can reduce the portion of the greens as a side which is more thoughtfully selected and delicately cooked. As presented, both dishes felt like something you might find at an average restaurant — even in larger portions and lower prices. The key lime pie tasted good, with a texture closer to an ice cream cake than a traditional cheesecake-style pie. That said, for a $15 dessert, we expected at least clean utensils to be provided. We didn’t try the $18 cocktails or $18 salads (with fairly common ingredients), but overall the restaurant seems unsure of its positioning. If it aims to be fine dining, there is a lot for improvement in presentation, service, and atmosphere. If it aims to be a cozy neighborhood restaurant, the pricing and portions don’t make sense. Unfortunately, this was disappointing for a Valentine’s Day dinner. There are many better grill options nearby with stronger flavors and more reasonable pricing just around the area.
