Ordered a small combo with ends and perfectly cooked catfish fillets/tenders. Sweet potatoes casserole was very tasty. I am not a greens expert but these were bitter. I did not alert the server but I thought maybe that was the way the restaurant made them. The peach cobbler was rich and good. Should have ordered ice cream as able mode. Large portions. My only big concern was the extra utility charge on the bill. I did not see it until I got nome, a little late to discuss.. On a $102.00 bill it was just shy of $18.00. I would definitely recommend but be aware of the extra charge. Restaurant/Service fee is the designation on the bill, listed as 18.5% and "is not a tip" per bill. Music was great. Set up with a piano but we were there before the sound group arrived.

They also do bbq and I haven't had any in a while. I ordered the sampler with rib tips, burnt ends and fried shrimp. The grits were good and the catfish was light and crispy. The rib tips were coated in a sweet bbq sauce. Not my first choice but they were good. The burnt ends were tender. I also got to try the mini corn muffins - yummy, the mac and cheese - yummy, the yams - and the potato salad - bland. The owner told us it was his fault the potato salad wasn't good. He was a very friendly guy. Answered all our questions and spent time with us. It's always good to speak to the owner when you are from out of town. He's done a lot with the place. We would have gone another day to try other things but our schedule was tight. Everyone was happy with their choices. It's a nice place, live music on certain nights, lots of room.

We also had the special house cocktail which was sweet and fruity and delicious. Check the hours before you go and come with a big appetite, we both brought at least half of our meal home and now I can look forward to having it tomorrow!

Bonjou tout moun! I'm here today to tell you about Aurora's newest hotspot for Haitian (etc.)…read morecooking - namely, Mama Josie Café Creole in the old Tonti's space at Chambers/Quincy. Let's explore the tasty baked goods, main courses, and more that can be found here. One thing I want to make very clear from the beginning (since I've seen some confusion on this subject) is that the "Creole" in the business name specifically refers to the variety from Haiti, not the one from Louisiana. So no, you won't find étouffée or gumbo or dirty rice here - but at the same time, I don't think you'll miss them when you see what else is on offer. Start things off with a cooling beverage - options on your visit may include Grenadia (passionfruit), Melon (in this case referring to watermelon), or my personal favorite, Choublak (hibiscus) - while you check out the substantially stocked pastry case. Mmmmm, don't those Pates look delicious? Whether your tastes lean more towards Mori (codfish), Epina (spinach), or even Aran So (herring), I think you'll find that these stuffed puff pastry delights will serve as a most suitable starting point for your culinary investigations. And on that note, let's look a little further at Mama Josie's menu offerings, and see what awaits us in terms of potential main dishes. On my recent visit, I readily admit it took me a while to make a decision from amongst the proprietress's captivating combination plates. But I finally settled on Poule Nan Sòs. Literally "chicken in sauce", this dish of poultry pieces slow-cooked with plenty of thyme, Scotch bonnet peppers, and mixed citrus is a cornerstone of the Haitian kitchen, and was especially memorable when paired with rice and peas (Diri Kole) and stewed corn (Mayi). (By the way, the more familiar Jamaican-style jerk chicken is also offered here). But chicken is certainly not the only main-course possibility to consider at Mama Josie. When the weather gets a bit cooler (any day now, the way things are going), you may get a chance to try a hearty bowl of pumpkin soup (or rather, Soup Joumou). Or, see what you think of some long-braised oxtails, or even a Sunday special of Dinde (turkey) with some macaroni and cheese on the side. Yes, no matter what you pick, it's safe to say that Mama Josie's plentiful platters will make you "trè kontan".

The shrimp came with watered down ranch which we used for our fries and a fast food container of cocktail sauce. In all fairness I would give 2.5 stars but I just cannot bring myself to 3 stars. In a bright note the vodka soda was a decent pour and helped wash down a mediocre meal.

Or order from Café China, which is near me and their lunch specials always come with a drink aside not skimping on anything. But I will say The CAE has delicious fried rice, it's sweet, salty and very unique!

That's exactly how my buddy and I ended up at Crazy Asian. We both ordered the 2-item combo with noodles, and one thing is certain: they don't skimp on portions. There was enough food in the container to satisfy even the hungriest traveler after a long day. My choices were Orange Chicken and Teriyaki Beef. The Orange Chicken was the clear winner--crispy, flavorful, and exactly what you'd expect from a quick Chinese takeout spot. The Teriyaki Beef, however, was a different story. The flavor was a bit off and didn't appeal to either of us. It's not something I'd order again. On the positive side, the restaurant was clean, the staff was friendly, service was quick, and the prices were very reasonable. For under ten bucks, it's hard to complain about the value. Would I make a special trip across Denver to eat here? No. Would I stop again if I was staying nearby and needed a quick, affordable meal? Absolutely. Good portions, fair prices, clean restaurant, decent service. Just stick with the Orange Chicken and you'll probably leave happier than I did with the Teriyaki Beef.
