super dry, tough chicken

Absolutely HORRIBLE. I got "stew chicken" over rice and it was so dry and disgusting. She FILLED 85% the pan up with rice, and put two dried out flavorless pieces of chicken on top. No gravy. No veggies. Nothing. I will never eat here again in my life. The man working there was apologetic when I called but I'm so hungry right now & mad I chose to eat here.

Homeland cuisine #Haiti

Some of the best fritaille in Brooklyn! This local Haitian cuisine spot offers all of the staples. If you are new are interested in trying my homeland cuisine lol, Yoyo has it down! From the nice juicy griot (fried pork), to the riz avec sauce pois (rice & beans). I highly recommend the fritaille. Fritaille is a fried assortment of fried yams, fried pork, fried plantain etc. (its a sometimes dish but treat yourself!). As a fellow Haitian I am proud to frequent Yoyo on the corner of Glenwood!

I love Bunnan and I will definitely come back but I just felt like my food had some minor flaws and…read morethe ball was dropped this visit. 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

Came here because I bought a Pulsd deal for dinner and wanted to try something new :)…read more Everything was was great - the experience, food, service! It was my first time trying Haitian food and I was surprised at how similar it was to Spanish food. Every plate we ordered was very flavorful and unique in taste. The sauces that came with our dishes were spicy (just how I like it) but so unique in spice too. I could have drank the sauces. There was nothing that we didn't like! The drinks were also simple, very light and yummy - not too sweet. The vibes of the restaurant were also very cute and dimly lit (but not too dim). They gave us the best seat in the house too - the corner window booth with views of the entire floor. It was a perfect date night! Will definitely be coming back and highly recommend if you're looking to eat some delicious Haitian food!

So... because of this, I knew rebel needed to step it up. I made a reservation the morning off, but honestly didn't need to, they had space to accommodate us on a Wednesday night. It's has a rustic charm and is quite intimate. I saw a few couples really enjoying the vibe if you know what I mean lol. The server was nice, but blunt lol. He really was just there to vibe, which I respect! We got two orders of the pork entree with a side of rice, as well as a chicken entree. The food came out fairly quickly and was delicious especially when you paired it with their side sauce. I will say this restaurant is on the pricier end compared to other Haitian restaurants, but worth it. I will most definitely be back.

It's not like one was actually reserved, but hey, it worked out, so I'm happy about that. Onto the food: I am half Haitian, and I may not speak Haitian Kreyol, but I know my Haitian food. I can prove my Haitian ethnicity by cooking traditional dishes. The legume was on point! That dish was my favorite. My friend truly enjoyed her salmon. 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!!!

I had the Lakou Salmon Burger with Green Plantain & a Side Kale Salad and enjoyed it. The Epis seasoning makes the food taste better! The White Sangria here is phenomenal! I've had the Red Sangria as well but it doesn't compare to the White Sangria. I do want to give the Cafe options a try such as the iced coffee. This place is nice and cozy. The employees who I've encountered here are very nice. There's also a small tv where they had the World Cup games on. This is location that's not too far from me so I will definitely be back in the future.

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.

I can't lie it's a bit hard to find this restaurant using navigation when walking is your mode of…read moretransportation, and you're not a native of the city. 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'm home for the weekend and figured I'd take advantage and get some authentic Caribbean food…read more(sorry, nowhere else does it like NYC). 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.
