I definitely had to make it to this spot on this short trip to the city. I've been seeing it on TikTok and IG for far too long. It was absolutely worth it. I walked in and was immediately greeted by the staff. Music was playing in the background. It wasn't too packed so I was able to grab a table and order my food right away. I had one of their signature dishes of course, the plantain sandwich. I decided on the tassot meat. Everything blended well together in the sandwich, so much flavor with the Pikliz and sauce. It was super filling or I would've ordered a second. I did order a herring pâté to go. Great spot, great food. I'll try more food next time.

I wanted to love my experience at Bunnan, but was a bit let down. I'll start with this - I was a huge fan of their other location on Caton Ave, and was excited to try this location. My group walked in on a Saturday evening and was seated in about 10 minutes without a reservation. Service was slow to start. We had to wave for our server several times, but that's not really the main issue. We ordered the Ti Bouche platter and two rice bowls. The presentation was lovely. However, there was an off putting sour taste in the vegetables I had in my bowl. This made it hard for me to enjoy my meal. My sister's steamed snapper was also overcooked and had a weird rubbery texture. Perhaps the kitchen had an off day. I'd be willing to give them a try again in the future. Maybe when they are less busy.

So I visited this place during a busy time so maybe that affected my visit. When we walked in it wasn't that busy until maybe 20-25 mins of us sitting there. The waitress was nice but the service was off. The 3 of us placed an order and I actually ordered my food first. Somehow my food never came out but my cousins did . I had to get the waitress's attention she didn't even notice my food never showed up. I didn't get my food until the other two at my table were done theirs . She said my food was given to someone else by accident. They did offer a free bread pudding because of the delay. The griot I had didn't taste like traditional Haitian griot and I'm Haitian. It was different but interesting having it in a sandwich. If I was in the area I might stop in and try it again. The place is small but you can comfortably sit.

NY Mag recent article featuring BunNan

Congratulations to Bunnan, featured in a recent New York Magazine focused on affordable eating borough by borough. Bunnan was featured in the Brooklyn portion to definitely eat at. Their griot bowl was highlighted with a photo and description. I was fortunate to attend a Brooklyn Elite event last year and the griot bowl was a stunner.. a generous portion of pork and Haitian delights: plantains are a knockout and the picklz condiment is a knockout. I will go back to dine on the jerk chicken pizza which is another knockout. The owner, Nadege Flurimond, is welcoming and has a great personality. Bunnan uses plantains as the starter for it all vs. bread. Knockout menu! BUNNAN 1248 Flatbush Avenue

I went to Bunnan with my mom and her friends. The plan was for me to just drop them off at a concert, but when it got cancelled, I joined them for dinner instead. None of us had been there before, so it was our first time trying it together. I started with a chicken patty as my appetizer and also ordered the griot rice bowl for my main dish. My mom ordered the lanbi (conch) rice bowl. The table came with plantain chips, which was a nice little start. My mom really enjoyed her food and kept saying how good it was. I thought mine was okay, but I wish they had more rice options like diri kole or diri pwa vet. I am not a fan of djon djon rice, but I was willing to try it. The highlight for me was the griot plantain slider. That thing was amazing. The pork was tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned. The plantains added just the right touch of sweetness, and the whole thing had a little kick that woke up my taste buds in the best way. Honestly, that was my favorite part of the meal. Our waiter, Race, was awesome. He was friendly, patient, and had such a good attitude. You could tell he genuinely cared about making sure everyone was comfortable and happy. The restaurant itself was really nice inside. The atmosphere felt warm and welcoming, and I loved seeing people from all backgrounds enjoying the food. Haitian food just has that power to bring everyone together. They do not serve alcohol yet, but that is only because they are in the process of getting their license. I can already imagine how fun the vibe will be once they do. Overall, I would go back (and try something different next time). I actually wish I ordered the pizza because it sounded really good. Still, I left full and happy, and it was nice to see a Haitian restaurant with such a warm atmosphere and great service. I'm excited to come back once their drink menu is up and running.

The food was delightful! Our waiter Jimmy was friendly, helpful and quick to answer any questions we had, and since my cousin was treating me for my Jimmy brought this huge slice of bread puddingw/rum in it w/ a candle and wish me a Happy Birthday! Not only was the food excellent, the staff was nice and the owner was so welcoming! + the had me shimmying! For a 1p lunch on a Tuesday, the vibe was it definitely made me feel celebrated Thanks to my cousin for treating me, and to the restaurant for their food, music & vibe! Cepace, Ca va bien!

My brother and I got together to get lunch. When ai arrived I parked on the street nearby. I walked in and was greeted and we sat. We were served by John and he nice. We ordered: Passion Fruit Lemonade Jerk Chicken Plaintain Sandwich Goat Rice Bowl Red Snapper Pizza The food was delicious and my favorite definitely was the pizza! I had a good experience all in all!

Food was incredibly good. Their shtick is plantains in everything. Don't expect conversation- loud DJ with phenomenal music that makes you think you're in a Caribbean beach. They do brunch and lunch. Got passion fruit lemonade, cola lacaya (fruity soda), jerk chicken in a sweet plantain boat and jerk chicken nachos with tostones. The flavor and complementary simple ingredients. Seated right away with plenty of free street parking.

Visited family and went for a casual brunch on a Saturday. Not too busy inside just 1-2 other parties. Small place but very nice tropical decor. The had a DJ and I thought the music was great. At the risk of sounding old, it was a littttttle too loud for me personally. Gave me the vibe of a bottomless brunch place so I was surprised they didn't offer bottomless. I ordered the sweet plantain oxtail sandwich which came with a side salad, as well as a rosemary biscuit. It was delicious! Very flavorful and perfectly spiced. I was going to order iced coffee with non dairy milk but they were out of almond milk so I switched to the passion fruit lemonade and it hit the spot. Service was friendly and quick. Cool spot!

Oxtail-Rice Bowl
Lottie L.

First time visiting BunNan Haitian Restaurant in Flatbush with a party of nine, and the restaurant was clean and welcoming. Our server, Jimmy, was excellent, friendly, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the menu. Jimmy started us off with plantain chips. The first portion felt a bit small for our group, but the refill was much more satisfying. The appetizers were tasty, and overall the food was flavorful. We ordered the jerk chicken plantain pizza, fried pork plantain pizza, and two oxtail rice bowls. All dishes were delicious; however, the oxtail rice bowl was disappointing. Why? Not due to lack of flavor, but because it lacked meat and had too much bone for the price, which both my husband and I noticed. On a positive note, Jimmy's recommendation of the plantain bread pudding was spot on and greatly appreciated. His outstanding service, from thoughtful recommendations to promptly clearing the table and being very attentive, really made the experience enjoyable. The great reviews brought us in, and the delicious food and Jimmy's service may very well bring us back.

Jerk chicken rice bowl and passion fruit lemonade
Keys P.

The service is attentive. Race had good energy (that's his name). We just walked in to grab food on a dead Tuesday. The food took about 20 to 25 minutes, but the wait was filled was good conversation. Let's get into the food! We had 2 sliders with sweet plantain, 1 griot (fried pork) and tassot (goat), AMAZING ! The perfect amount of spice and sweet. I ordered a rice bowl with jerk chicken. I wouldn't order that again because the chicken was really salty and spicy. I've been told Haitians don't have a " jerk" taste. So it made sense that the taste was off. We also had a Tassot plantain boat. This was really good but spicy. Everything we ordered had pickleys on the side.

Chicken & Griot Plantain Sliders
Leenzie B.

I was here last Friday with my Yelp Elite friend for Happy Hour. I had the Jerk Chicken Plantain Slider, the Griot Plantain Slider, Chicken Patty, and Passion Fruit Lemonade. Everything was delicious! The staff were really friendly and the atmosphere was great for a Friday with the DJ and game night! Definitely will be back there again soon

Great location! I don't remember what used to be here but this is a great new restaurant for the area. I feel much more secure ordering vegetarian food here than in some other places nearby. Order to go, or sit here for a while. Beautiful decor especially the wallpaper, and custom ceiling fans. Sweet staff who are genuinely interested in giving diners a good experience, building local relationships, working with the community to advertise events, etc. Mushroom slider: mmmmm spicy! tangy slaw, umami mushroom, crunchy plantain it's a slider so it's just an appetizer right? wrong! surprisingly filling without feeling heavy. i had the green plantain but will definitely go back for the sweet plantain my only issue with plantain sliders as a concept is that the filing... slides off. so i also ordered the cups; same ingredients but in a cup shaped plantain. Much better ratio of filling to container, less mess, easier to eat. It's great in person, and survives travel and eating later. I love that they use lined cardboard instead of plastic.

Firstly, the passion fruit lemonade is the bomb and they have games on the table which make the ambience cool and chill. They also have a dj on Fridays so the place is very inviting. I had a snapper plate and I think there could've been a better balance of spice. The pickled cabbage was sour and didn't taste fresh. I also assumed my fish would be in a filet form but it can shredded which I didn't mint but it was also overly spicy from whatever sauce it was mixed with. If there's an option to not get it shredded with the sauce I would welcome that next time, since I want to be able to adjust the heat with the picklez as I please. At times our waitress seemed clueless, she would forget things we ordered but it's a small restaurant so I wasn't too bothered because she wasn't far when I needed to address something. With that said I still love bunnan as it's a great Haitian restaurant in Flatbush where I can get a classic meal. I will certainly go back again and again

Honestly, I wish I had gotten the salmon to take home instead of the Haitian fried chicken. Now, that wasn't that great to me, and I didn't enjoy it :( I'm still giving them all the stars and all the props because I really appreciated the service. This was my first time trying a Haitian patty with spinach, and it was absolutely fantastic. I think it's even better than the chickpea one. I would definitely highly recommend this place and also go back. But the Haitian fried chicken need to be better. Still, I'll definitely come again and try the salmon next time!!!

Don't let the ambiance fool you…read more Macaroni Au Gratin is bland with consistency of imitation cheese whiz? I can't put my finger on it but it didn't have a flavor of ANY blend of natural cheeses. I'd know, I'm a cheese connoisseur! Perhaps they use imitation cheese. Simply put, their macaroni au gratin is inauthentic as in no veggies (onions, bell peppers) nor ham or ground beef used either. At least the Diri Djon Djon and Lalo was decent. I've had better Salad Russe. It was either missing onions or salt. The condiment cup of Pikliz is shorter and smaller than the usual 1.5 oz. Most restaurants provide sizes 2 oz and larger and that's how I was able to tell the difference. I never even knew those solo dipping cups came any smaller! Probably so you can ask for more so they can charge extra. Not only do they make sure to cut corners on the Pikliz. Which wasn't even enough to mask their thick, brown, over-fried, DRY and STALE bannann peze that has been sitting out. After they cut the plantains they don't soak in salted water. Bannann peze SHOULD NOT be so thick, should be made-to-order and served hot, fresh, golden and crispy. Just look at their photos and see for yourselves compared to other bannann peze / tostones you've eaten / seen. Then to ask if I need utensils for a to-go order? No ma'am, I'll be using my fingers and eating out of my hands today, thanks for asking. Don't ask, just automatically include utensils in the bag for the astronomic amount you charge for your food. Chain restaurants or even mom & pops all simply include utensils and napkins when preparing to-go orders. Only time to get away with that is when delivering. At which most times customer may decline since they're home / work and may already have those items. Price point - garbage for side of macaroni au gratin I'll let you all be surprised for yourselves on the rest on menu. * If anyone gave this restaurant 5 stars... they're obviously not Haitian and/or their tastebuds are shot.

However, this is a hidden gem you should try. It appears to be a family owned restaurant. Decor is light and seating is sparse, so if you plan to bring a party of 4 or more I'd definitely suggest calling ahead to potentially make a reservation. We also came on an extremely hot day and sadly their A/C system wasn't working so it was on the warmer side. Not unbearable but a bit uncomfortable, so just keep that in mind if that's the case when you show up. What I will say when it comes to the experience and food is that it doesn't get more authentic than this. I asked for a recommendation and was told to order the griot, which was well seasoned and quite large portion size wise. The plate came with a rice of choice, two fried plantain, beans, pikliz and dipping sauce for the meat. Not bad for $20. I ordered to go because I had an event to go to, but can attest that they do a great job of plating their dishes when you dine in. If I'm ever in NYC again I wouldn't mind returning, dining in and hopefully trying something different like their Kalalou or legume which looks incredible.

I settled on Haitian food, and after some Googles I settled on Anmwey Eatery. The reviews were good and it was only a 5 minute drive from my mom's house. I ordered at the counter when I arrived. I knew I wanted griot (fried pork) with black rice, so that's what I ordered. They were busy, so my food took about 30 minutes to be ready. I was fine with the wait. The bar seats were comfy and I was on my phone. There was also loud reggae music playing from the other room, so I was jammin. I got home and dug into my food and it was almost perfect. The griot was delicious. Just crunchy enough on the outside and tender on the inside. The black rice was a little disappointing, but nothing major. I love black rice, but it lacked flavor. Luckily they give you a side of gravy, which was tasty. I should've taken the girl at the counter up on her offer to get an extra side of gravy. I still devoured everything though. It also came with fried plantain. I'm not a huge fan of unsweet plantain, but it was good when I added the picklez to it. Picklez is spicy, so tread lightly if you don't like heat. 5 stars for Anmwey. I will certainly return.

Grubhub ordered because I was feeling for haitian food. After looking around, I decided to try this…read morespot. I ordered the $12 medium griot fritalle (fried pork), which came with 3 Akra, 4 pieces of fried plantain, and half of a sausage; pikliz. The fried pork pieces were mostly fat and looked like the side dish for $5; literally, i counted 7 pieces. Nothing too special in taste, really bland, not even a hint of salt n pepper; even the pikliz didn't help. The Akra was good, and the sausage was good. Also, I got a side of black rice, and that also was just Ok. The food was hot, at least. I appreciate the delivery from bedstuy, but I don't think I would order from there again. They didn't even send sauce with the rice. Smh. I was planning on going in person, but now I don't know.
