ALERT - this restaurant is under new ownership and management. Although this is our first time…read morecoming, we found out the new owner has only been open for 2 months. With that in mind, just note that any photos and reviews before June 2020 are not of the current ownership. This isn't the best I've had but it's certainly worth coming back. We had red snapper, black rice and plantains with a macaroni salad. The owner said they only buy a limited supply of snapper each day since he gets them fresh from the fisherman. So glad we came for lunch! It was piping hot and fresh, lightly seasoned so it was good. The plantains were prepared well and the black rice was cooked perfectly even though it could use more "black". Definitely worth a visit.

The food is good but the prices are too high. I will go back on occasion when the craving for Haitian food must be satisfied, but if the prices were better, I would go here at least once per week.

The fish which was $25 was well seasoned so it made up for the hefty price. The medium pork griot was also fried and seasoned exceptionally. I was hesitant to try the the food here due to the previous reviews but everything was great. The Pikliz was the spiciest I've ever had... but it's winner and must try.

After my initial experience here, I made it my business to try the other local Haitian restaurants and none are comparable. My favorite menu item is the groot, sos pwa and the pikliz. The pikliz is TO DIE FOR. I wish they would large batch it and sell it. I would literally eat it on anything. The place has tables to dine in, if you want, but I wouldn't describe it as a welcoming environment for a dine in experience. And this has nothing to do with service, there is no table service, it's just kind of plain and not much color or excitement that would entice you to linger inside. You come here for the food, not the "vibes"

Their pickled vegetables( I believe they call them picklies? ) were amazing to be paired with the chicken. Their black rice was very good, I do think it was a bit oily but nonetheless very good. The star of the entire dish was the sauce that came with the chicken. Dip EVERYTHING in that sauce, it is thin but so good! It's so flavorful and just pairs everything together well. Definitely recommend going here! If this is a representation of what Haitian food is, everyone should be eating here.

She doesn't know if I drank it or not?! Huuuuuh? I'm really not trying to hold one over on them after spending $20 there including my drink I never got. I've had better food in Sanford and Rockledge. Keep your money and pass on this place. Service and food need to step up. Food wasn't bland but it could've used more seasonings and spices. Plaza is busy. Has the wingstop right next door and the Cuban cafe place too. Getting in and out can be tricky.

I placed a takeout order for five different entrees at 4:05 and was told it would be ready in 20-30 minutes. I made a few stops and arrived about 45 minutes later, only to be told the food had not been prepared and would take another 20 minutes. When we were finally called up to pay, the order was completely incorrect. While trying to explain the discrepancies and get everything corrected, we were repeatedly interrupted, which made communication difficult. Thankfully, I had brought the paper where I had written down the entire order in detail. Another woman then told me something I ordered was unavailable, which did not match what I had been told when placing the order. Eventually, a third woman stepped in whose voice I recognized as the person who originally took my order. She immediately understood the issue, assured us it would be corrected, and followed through. I appreciated her stepping in and straightening everything out. Unfortunately, we didn't leave until four minutes before 6 nearly two hours after placing a takeout order that was said to be ready in 20-30 minutes. I was visiting my brother, who lives two hours away, so I tried to make light of the situation. Ordering well in advance may help with the wait, but then you risk the food being cold which is exactly what happened to us. After all that time, we still had to go home and reheat our food. I'm sharing this not to bad mouth the establishment, but to bring awareness to areas that could use improvement. Better communication, attention to order details, and more accurate preparation times would have made this a much better experience. With that said, the food was good, the atmosphere was nice, and the music was vibe. I wouldn't rush back anytime soon, but I would be open to giving them another try in the future.
