I'm so happy to have found this haitian bakery.It's very close to my house. I come here almost every weekend for the haitian bread, which is amazing. I personally like it better than the cuban and puerto rican bread. It's a very small mom and pop shop. I definitely need to try something else.Other than the haitian bread, everything looks so good. read more

Very small venue only enough space for maybe three adults to stand inside. First thing you see is this great display of patties and sweet. Very kind woman behind the door answers questions professionally. I went it the last hour before closing and woman behind desk was fresh faced and friendly. First time trying so I decide on a mixed dozen, 2 fish, 5 beef and 5 chicken. She packaged the fish alone just in case anyone eating those didn't want it mixed with other meats. I travel another 20 minutes and items when perfect on arrival. Guest loved the taste of the patties. A few people indulged in the extra carbs and forgot about diets. For me, while they smelled and tasted delicious I found they were lacking in amount of meat/fish filling. The pasty was 95% glorious flour and butter and maybe 5% filling. read more

I was craving haitian patties and couldn't remember the bakery my grandfather used to get them from when I was a child. I did a quick search and came across this bakery that seemed to have had decent reviews. I decided to give them a try. The parking lot is tiny, the bakery is even tinier.... With only about 5 people already in the bakery it was super packed. There is no seating, you can only order to go. The young lady taking the orders was very patient. I ordered a chicken patty, salt fish and herring patties and a peanut tablet (haitian peanut brittle). The chicken patty was so good, I wish I had gotten more. I didn't really care for the herring patty, I brought back the salt fish patty (which is usually my favorite) to my friend and she said she really enjoyed it! The tablet was good as well, again, I wish I would have gotten more. But, I know for next time! read more

I read a couple of reviews before driving here and I felt really good about visiting this restaurant. I went to this restaurant and it was a big mistake. As soon as I walked in to this establishment with my family, we were insulted. The worker at the establishment never greeted us and participated in brief hazing with the previous customers in Creole. Unfortunately for them we understood the disrespectful statements.The statement can't even be repeated because it was very harsh and rude. Everyone became silent when we translated the information out loud in English. It was incredibly awkward. At this time I just wanted to place an order and enjoy the food. However, it was one disappointing thing after the next. The worker had a bad attitude and intentionally moved slow in completing our order. Since the worker was still completing our order, we requested 2 slices of cake. The worker placed the cake in a carton but she didn't wrap it up immediately. Instead, the worker took another order and reached over our cake to take money. During this brief exchange, the worker's armpit was over the cake and her shirt sleeve touched the cakes. We stated we no longer want the cakes. The worker sucked her teeth and put the cake back on the cake plate. I know some restaurants have off days but this entire experience was ridiculous. read more

La Paix is a take away Haiti bakery. There are many in the area but I prefer their patties over the others. Their patties have a buttery biscuit like crust that I like, not like the usual Haitian patties I've tasted, that are very flaky (messy) and with little to no meat inside. They have the option of Beef, chicken and smoked fish herring, they even have it with boiled egg inside the patties. I only came in for the patties, but they had so many other things on the menu like spaghetti, soup, cakes and much more. I will definitely come back and try some more stuff on the menu and if it's as good as the patties they'll get 5 stars. read more

I recently asked a friend who was traveling from Florida to bring me back some goodies from La Paix Bakery and I am so glad I did. I received an assortment of breads, patties and sweets. Everything was fresh and tasty, but the crown jewel was the bread, with a nice golden crispy crust and moist interior that just melts in your mouth. Even after I froze some of the bread so it could keep longer as I received many bags and could not eat them all in one sitting, it still had that fresh out of the oven taste! I highly recommend making a pit stop at La Paix Bakery whenever in the Miramar area, you will not regret it. read more

I love this place. Been coming here for years for my Haitian patties and treats. They've upgraded a bit. Made the shop smaller, but added more sweet treats and more variety of patties to keep up with the times as people I guess are asking for different things to be placed inside of the patties. Oh well, whatever...I'll stick with the originals and what I know to be awesome. From their fresh baked Haitian bread, which you'll walk out eating before you reach your car , to their patties which you'll wish you bought more of if you think 2 will do. Their bonbon amidon will melt in your mouth and you'll by enough to pack on a good 10 lbs, but it'll be worth it. I'm sure there are plenty of Haitian bakeries nearby but in my 25 years of being in the area, this place has not disappointed me yet and places have come and gone, but these people have still been around.

Six pieces, like giant hush puppies with conch inside. The plate came with pikliz in the center. Pikliz is like the Haitian version of coleslaw, made with cabbage, carrots, onions, and peppers. Manjay's version was spicy and yummy. Bowls, each with 2 sides and 1 sauce: * Honey Jerk Chicken Bowl ($18) - breaded and tossed in Manjay's homemade honey jerk sauce; with red beans rice and sweet plantains and scotch bonnet mango aioli * From Haiti with Love (Griyo) ($18) - Deep-fried Kreyol-style slow-braised pork; with banan payzay and toofay Both the chicken and pork were very good and flavorful. The pork was served bone-in. The rice and beans and sweet plantains were comforting and addictive. The scotch bonnet mango aioli was spicy. Banan payzay are Haitian pressed plantains. These were savory and starchy. The toofay ("legume") was good too. It's a hearty vegetable stew, essentially Haitian ratatouille. Our cashier was Roniqua and she was nice. During our visit, I think Manjay had the longest line (a good sign). After walking around, looking at the other food court options and seeing Manjay's high rating on Yelp, we were sold on Manjay. We dined in so we got real plates and silverware. We actually took everything up to the rooftop bar and ate up there. Our trays were bussed by the staff on the roof. Along with this location at the Citadel food court in Little River (just north of Little Haiti), Manjay has a casual strip location near the Miami airport in Doral. This Citadel location is the original; it opened in February 2019. The Doral location opened in 2024.

I haven't had a lot of Haitian food before, so I wanted to give Pearl of the Island a shot as I…read moreheard it was good. The ambiance is that of a fast casual restaurant with and order counter and tables lining the outer perimeter of the restaurant. There are TVs playing as well. The service wasn't particularly friendly, the two ladies up front seemed more interested in chatting than helping me with the menu. The lunch special came with a soda but they do not offer diet soda and they will not substitute bottled water. I walked in for pickup, and the two lunches probably took 15-20 minutes to be prepared. My husband got the griot, which was flavorful but dry. I got the stewed chicken which was slightly overcooked and underseasoned. I did enjoy the fried smashed plantains, but the rice and beans tasted weirdly ashy? We barely touched those. The pikliz was only ok. Overall, I would not return as I was disappointed.

Pearl of the Island in Margate is a hidden gem for authentic Haitian food. The portions are…read moregenerous and the flavors are rich, fresh, and absolutely delicious. Everything tasted well seasoned and made with care. My o ly issue was the macaroni was sooo cold, as if they didn't even bother to warm it up and the griot was really dry. Overall, If you are looking for great Haitian cuisine that leaves you full and somewhat satisfied, this spot is definitely worth a visit.

We showed up unannounced with a large party from the LBA Basketball Program, and Naomi's Garden…read morehandled it like absolute pros. Noam greeted us warmly and immediately helped arrange a buffet-style setup featuring all the popular Haitian dishes--everything was flavorful, authentic, and beautifully prepared. The GM, Malinda, was extremely attentive, making sure everyone knew what each dish was and felt comfortable, and Matta was very professional and efficient while setting everything up. This was a real test of Naomi's Garden's ability to handle pressure and a big group, and they passed with flying colors. Beyond the amazing food, we genuinely learned about Haitian culture through the cuisine. Incredible experience--highly recommend Naomi's Garden for both the food and the hospitality.

We were looking for a quick place to eat at 10pm on a Saturday night, and this place was nearby…read more There's a walk-up counter where you can look at the food laid out in different containers and order, but I would have loved it if the items were labeled or if there were a menu on-site. I asked about a menu and was directed online to search "Naomi Miami," but when I asked for the grouper fillet on the menu online I was told they didn't have it. I got the tofu with rice and the spinach stew, and my boyfriend got the chicken with yellow cornmeal. We haven't had Haitian food, but we both enjoyed our entrees. The portion sizes were large and I think most people could eat this for two meals.
