Anyone who knows me knows I try not to visit new locations until the third to sixth month of being open. Get all the kinks out and perfect the overall flow. This location opened May 1st.
Well my son hit me up on Monday and said " Maaaaaaaa, where you at? I have a spot for you to try. "Reminding him I don't drink, do new locations, etc. He responded " nahhhh, it's a vibe, you will enjoy." I went and met the sweetest ppl.
Mr. Gregory and Ms. J (couldn't pronounce her name) was so inviting, warm and beautiful souls to be around. We laughed, sampled some appetizers, drank and I said " I know you're closed today but I'm returning tomorrow for fish"
Tomorrow is today lol
I entered, was greeted and seated. Mr. Gregory came over said "hi". I told him " make whatever you like as long as it's seafood because I don't eat meat as I was looking over the menu because I couldn't decide lol.
Baby, first the sides came out. Mac& cheese, black rice, rice and peas. Rice cooked exactly how I love it, grainy, seasoned. Loved the black rice flavor. Omg, the Mac & cheese was so cheesy, full of flavor, noodles were bigger than normal but it works. Then he delivered the fish with the explanation of the name, its Haitian recipe and how to eat this because it's salty.
Mannnnnnnnnnnnnnn, Mr. Gregory wasn't kidding when he said "salty" but its flavor with the fried potatoes was amazing. I enjoyed the fish with dipping the black rice in the gravy.
THE FOOD WAS AMAZIING!!!!
I didn't care for the screaming children but I understood from what I witnessed family was helping. read more
