Canzy island taste is by far the best Haitian food I've ever had!…read more The restaurant is within a little shopping mall out in Long Island. From the outside it looks small but the inside was big enough to seat 15-20 people. The server was very helpful with explaining what ever this was and gave me some good suggestions. I ended up having the legumes, black rice and Mac and cheese. The legumes is a veggie stew with meat. The flavor is so rich, deep and delicious. I've never had a veggie stew that made me want to go back for more. The black rice was so good you could eat it by itself. The Mac and cheese was also good. The portion of the dishes were so big for the price. Big enough that I shared it with someone and was able to eat from it 4 times total. Being from BK, I thought we had the best Caribbean food but now I can see that's not true because this restaurant was too good! I will definitely go back for more!

This is a Haitian deli that is in a retail strip with free parking…read more Lalo is their signature dish, and it is only sold on weekends. It is made from jute leaves, fresh crab and beef. Do not confuse this dish with Jamaican Callaloo, which is made from taro (dasheen) leaves and is often combined with salt fish. The owners make their own passionfruit and ginger juice. The ginger juice is potent. It is stronger than any ginger beer that I have ever tasted. I have to dilute it with some water. I am only giving this deli three stars because it is a new business that must iron out some kinks. For one, sometimes all the daily specials are not put out by noon. Number two, the interior design needs updating.

The service was excellent the lady behind the register was a real sweetheart and very helpful. The place is extremely clean and well maintained and even though it's small ? there's room to sit in the front in case you wanted to eat there. Plenty parking in the lot in front. Will definitely eat here again if in the neighborhood.

They had a flaky crust and deliciously savory fillings. I did feel like they were a tad dry, but I gobbled them up all the same. The lady behind the counter was also very friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be back to try some more offerings... the Gouda Mac and cheese with oxtail is calling my name...

Leon, who is extremely enthusiastic and just down right a cool cat, greated me at the window. I was torn between jerk shrimp or jerk chicken, but went with this recommendation based on how substantial the chicken portion is. It was ready in only 15 minutes and once I got home, I quickly dug in. I knew I could probably save about half of it for lunch today, but it was just so darn delicious that I devoured the entire platter in one sitting. Haven't tried them yet? Give them a shot and tell em Jared sent ya.. they'll laugh for sure.

Good food (very tasty) and service! Would visit this establishment again! Quick service.read more

The rest of the food is fine but the mac and cheese is the star of the show. The beef patty, jerk chicken, oxtail, are all ok, but I prefer other spots in queens.

For drinks, I was thinking about ordering a margarita, but our server mentioned the mojito specials. I quickly switched up and ordered the coconut mojito. My husband tried the mango passion fruit mojito, but it was extremely sour and had to be sent back. Unfortunately, the second drink he ordered also wasn't to his liking. I ordered the coconut mojito, the drink itself was good, but between the narrow glass and all the ice, it disappeared pretty quickly, which felt different from past experiences. Now Let's talk Dominican Ribs ... OMG...the thing that hooked me here the first time... The flavor was spot on, clearly that recipe has not changed. They fall off the bone, tender with that sticky sweet lick your fingers kind of special but they too were a little different. A little dainty. I just found my picture from 2019 and did a side-by-side. We also ordered the chicken wings and they to me didn't have a special feel. They were reminiscing of the ones I grab at Costco for my family barbecue. Good but didn't have that Caribbean inspired taste and they were not so, fall off the bone.
