The restaurant is located in a strip mall area nestled between a few other restaurants. While it does not look fancy from the outside or inside. It definitely makes up for everything once the food arrives. The woman who took our order was so nice and very helpful for those who may be indecisive about what you want. We came here for lunch and tried the lunch special. There is seating available for a few customers but you could also do take out. We had the griot and fried chicken special with rice and beans, plantain, pikliz and drink. The food was so tasty and flavorful. We had just the perfect amount of food to leave filled and satisfied. Both dishes had just the perfect amount of spices. The griot was cooked to perfection. The pikliz was just spicy enough but not too hot. Wish we lived in the area to frequent it more often. If you are looking fir authentic carribean and haitian food, this is the place for you. Definitely will recommend to family and friends in the area.

From the outside, the neighborhood, nor the block, looks high-end. But I have learned never to judge a book by its cover. In this case, the storefront. Does it need an update, yes, but the food is spectacular. I ordered the oxtail and it was phenomenal. The beef was tender and the rice and peas, were just right. The plantain was huge, flattened into thin patties, lightly fried, but sweet. The macaroni salad was delicious. You will enjoy it. A must visit. Bon Apetit.

Bon Goût (which means "good taste" in French) is a newly opened Haitian restaurant in Orleans. I…read moredropped by recently to pick up lunch for my parents and I, and we were all very happy with our meals. They have 3 takeout lunch specials served between 12pm-2pm, and I got one of each: Chicken ($6), Pork ($6) and Turkey ($7). Each special came with rice and peas, pikliz (spicy coleslaw), salad, and a piece of plantain. The portion size was very good for the price, and satisfying for lunch. For the chicken special, they forgot to give me a piece of plantain :( but I ate half of a piece of plantain from one of the other platters and it tasted quite good. It was smashed/flattened and then deep fried. The chicken was a full thigh piece. The spices were rather mild, but still tasty. The salad was romaine, bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes. Vegetables were fresh. The salad dressing was creamy. The pikliz was spicy and I enjoyed it. The rice and peas were excellent. I loved the flavour of it. I had a piece of the pork and I liked that the pork was lean and despite being fried it wasn't overly greasy. The pork was boneless, which I appreciated. The turkey was cut up pieces with bone-in, but fortunately there weren't any bone shards in the dish. The turkey was really flavourful, more so than the chicken, but we didn't get that much meat in this dish. I think I'll stick with the chicken or pork in the future. The wait for takeout was about 30 minutes, which was a bit long, but I think it was worth it because the food was good and the price was very reasonable. They have tables where you can eat-in. The place looked clean. They've only been open for about 2 months. There's a parking lot in front with free parking.

I had read the slaw was spicy - but it was far too hot for me plantain was crisp and tasty. Came with a side of gravy which was delicious. I wanted to drink it. Service was fast, and counter lady was also the cook so she was very helpful in describing the dishes The ambiance of the place is typical take out restaurant. There are about 4 tables that might seat 6 people each. This place is primarily a take away service. So seats are used mostly for waiting for your food. Bought a large for $25 plus tax Got 2 suppers and have enough leftover for another lunch. Definitely will be adding this into our take out rotation. Two thumbs up.

Well, I happened to be in the area running other errands and drove by it and lo and behold, they have a parking lot! It's shared with a few other businesses, but it's in front of their restaurant and it's free. Whoo hoo! I couldn't stop that day, but made a mental note to return. And return I did! A few days later I got some takeout for my husband and I. I walked in and was greeted right away. Staff there were super friendly. I asked if they had lunch specials (it was 1:30pm) and they did! It was $7 for either Creole chicken in sauce, fried chicken, or Griot fried pork. I got a fried chicken and a fried pork. They came with rice and beans, a piece of fried plantain, gravy and some pikliz (spicy coleslaw). It's the equivalent of a "medium" that they sell. They have large and x-large as well. The food was overall good, but a bit fatty/greasy for my liking. The plantain was too dry and hard for my tastes. The pork was good, although some pieces were really fatty, but I did appreciate that I got some lean pieces as well. The chicken was a thigh piece. It was good, but not all that flavourful. The rice was tasty, but a bit oily. I wonder if they have Djon-Djon, that mushroom rice, I forgot to ask, I do like it better than regular rice and beans. Maybe next time. The pikliz (spicy coleslaw) was excellent. It had a real spicy kick to it. I didn't care for the gravy as it looked like red oily broth. Food was served in styrofoam containers. I personally am not a huge fan of eating out of styrofoam for both health (chemicals leaching into the food) and environmental reasons. The lunch special is a good deal at $7 though.

I discovered the existence of Pam Cuisine Caribbean Food while flipping through UberEats, but I…read moreactually ended up going to the restaurant to check it out and ordered while I was there. They opened in the Summer of 2022. Overall, the food was good. I'd say 3.5 stars, but I'll round up to 4 because the lady was really friendly and the wait wasn't too long. I got the large Fried Chicken meal ($18) to share with my husband (we weren't that hungry, so it was enough food, but otherwise, I would say it's not big enough to share for a proper dinner). I initially wanted to get the Jerk Chicken meal, but she said she didn't have any Jerk Chicken that day. The meal came with 2 thighs and a drumstick, rice and beans, 3 pieces of deep-fried plantains, macaroni salad, a tiny container of spicy coleslaw (pikliz) and a small container of sauce. Although the menu did not indicate it was a Haitian dish, the meal was Haitian in style and taste. The chicken was good, but could have used a bit more seasonings in my opinion. The plantains were on the dry side, but they were sweet. The rice was fluffy with plenty of beans. The macaroni salad was really creamy and had little bits of carrots in it. The spicy coleslaw was excellent. Really spicy and vinegar based. I wish there was more of it. The sauce was oily and watery and didn't have much flavour, so I only had a taste and didn't use the rest. The restaurant is in the basement of the Manila Mart grocery store, so look for the Manila Mart, because there's no signage for Pam Cuisine that you can see from the street, at least not during my visit. There's free parking in the small private parking lot on the side of Manila Mart for customers.
