  • Ok. Ok. I was expecting a bit more... After reading a couple critics in the net, i had high hopes on coming to this restaurant. Needless to say that i was disappointed. First it is impossible to reserve and they had no way of communication. Perhaps in the near future? So a couple friends of ours, my husband and myself arrived at 7 pm and had been told that they would be a 45 minutes wait but that we could sit upstairs have a drink and an appetizer while we waited. We HAD to order something due to alcohol permits. So far so good! I was expecting a wait because this restaurant has been long awaited! Our friends ordered bananes pesées (fried plantains) and we ordered acras. The plantains were really crispy and good but needed a sauce! The acras came out crispy as well but really dark and tasted bitter. Was is the oil that needed changing? So after only 25 minutes, we were seated at our table and ordered more drinks. Their cocktails are really good especially the fact that they use Barbancourt! They didn't have bottled beer though. That was weird because they have been only opened about a week. I guess it takes some adjustments... Ok, so here is what we ordered: griots, two plates of oxtail with rice and a plate of cashew chicken. They all fell flat! The oxtail were the end parts and we barely had any meat to eat from. The rice was overcooked, watery and pasty. The two tiny pieces of chicken had no flavour and you had to dig for the cashews. I was also expecting the Chef and co-owner in the kitchen cooking but instead saw him walking around in clean clothes all night! Did i mention that by the time the waitress had came to our table to take our order, we had waited 1 hour for her? We were drunk before even ordering our food I used to date this Haitian guy (now my best friend) and had a lot of real authentic creole food cooked by him and his family. This place on the other hand fell short on impressing me. So there you go... My rant about this so called delicious new Arcade Fire-restaurant-creole-food-long-waited-restaurant-that-serves-super-good-dishes! A plus side and maybe the only good thing (well three...) great service, great cocktails and great ambiance! I came for the food but left hungry. Not a well 175$ spent!
