★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Joseph Diggs · Feb 2026

I have been coming to this restaurant since a child but now the only thing I recognize is the painting of Blue Hill ave. The service is non-existent, food quality has drastically declined and to top it off the prices keep going up. I can ignore the fact that sometimes I get (2)chicken instead of (3), I can ignore the fact that I order white rice everytime and get brown rice and beans 50% of the time. What I will not ignore is chicken clearly taken off the bone and triple-fried to mask it! Today I received all 3 pieces but 2 had half the chicken ripped off! I been loyal to this spot for too long to get this type of treatment and its only getting worse. RIP to the Bon Apetit that I onced loved, I’m afraid she dead and gone. 🙏🏾

I am really not sure what happened but the food I received is not Haitian food and does not represent Haitian culture. I ordered the Legume, steamed vegetables and plaintains, and did not get that. Instead I got a plate of rice, dry plantains, and dry hard meat. The sauce in the side was flavorless and tasted like tomato soup. I found one piece of broccoli and one carrot in my food. I am assuming that was the attempt to give me vegetables. growing up experiencing great Haitian food with my family being from PAP, I am highly disappointed in the quality and representation of Haitian cuisine. I transferred the food to my own plate and had to borrow on oxtail from my sister's food that she ordered from a different resturant to make it somewhat enjoyable. It is not somewhere I would return for

I love this spot. I've been going there for years.. I went in there today looking for meatballs, and they didn't have any.. within minutes, the cook made me a plate and went out his way to cook my meatballs 😋 plate was bomb

I used to come here because of the good food and presentation. Customer service was NEVER good and now they are giving the food like this?!?! 😤 I know this is t a high class restaurant but they aren't even presenting the food as a decent restaurant would. I'm VERY disappointed in this and I don't see my self coming back here because this is just NOT okay.

I paid 30 dollars for food and they didn’t even fill my plate up with rice. It looks like leftovers & I only got 2 plantains. Absolutely worst! I don’t recommend it at all. I will never go back here again.
