I recently placed an order with my coworkers, and unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing. I specifically ordered fried chicken, but received chicken wings instead. The chicken pieces were so small they looked unappetizing, and the sauce or gravy provided on the side was not only unfamiliar but also inedible.
This is not my first time ordering from your establishment, but after this experience, it will be my last. I strongly urge your team to pay closer attention to customer orders and deliver what has been requested. If I were not at work, I would have returned the meal for a refund.
I hope you take this feedback seriously and improve the quality and accuracy of your service.

Omg, I had their eggs and bread breakfast, that was the best eggs I’ve ever had. The right amount of spice and the bread was so soft. I dont even stay around here but this place is worth it. Love it.

Close to my home. Taste close to home for two of my aides. One from Jamaica. One from Haiti. Both reccomend Goat stew as fell and broke both upper and lower appliances. I look like walrus and ate goat like one as well. Goat was soft, spicy and spectacular. Enjoyed sides of plantains, salad and of course red beans and rice.

The service was fast. I placed a phone order and it was ready for pickup within 10min of me arriving. I ordered a Griot complete with Djon Djon rice on 04/24/25. I have never felt so disrespected, I have provided a picture of the rice.
The rice was so stale, literally similar to rocks. I only ate the meat part. I understand that as a restaurant things can be overwhelming however if a food is not fresh instead of serving it to a client, why not discard it? Or offer a substitute. I am highly disappointed and will not be back. This gave me a whole new outlook on this restaurant.

Service horrible, food horrible! I wasted $30 for Lalo that had nothing but fat and bones! The owner doesn’t care, it gives bottom of the bottom! We’ll serve trash, take your money, then argue with you when come back! And it was hair in my food! Will be contacting the health department! Horrible horrible horrible don’t waste your money or time!
Florida sucks when it comes to great service and food!

This place provides poor quality Haitian food at low cost, at least that’s the impression I got. If you are a sophisticated food connoisseur looking to enjoy sophisticated Haitian cuisines, please stay away, far away. Red beans and rice: you would get better value with Popeyes red beans and rice. Rice undercooked, red beans watery and without taste. Oxtails: tasty, but only 2 or 3 small pieces with meat on them, the rest is just bones and small potatoes to make up the weight.

Quaint little restaurant in Boynton Beach. Very popular and very busy. The fried snapper was huge and awesome. Friendly staff and good food. So if you are in search of Haitian or Caribbean food check them out. The are located on Boynton Beach Blvd, just before Dixie. I had a great experience.

We put in 3 different orders in. The food was delicious! We could taste the right amount of season, there was true love put into the food as they cook it, the meats didn’t have lots of fat in it. Great portions! The restaurant is more on the modern side and colorful colors with an accent black geometric 2D wall that definitely stand out, the kitchen area is open and you are able to see it, the area is clean, customer services was great, the lovely lady came in check on us. We travel from a different state and we definitely we will be back!

I ordered fried turkey and this is what I received. They put the plantain on top to cover what they give you. They should be ashamed. This was dinner time 6:00 after work and so was hungry and too tired to return it. They need to do better Nothing but bones one piece of meat.
