Gou Restaurant

After moving back to Philly from Florida, my husband and I been on a hunt for some good authentic Haitian restaurant. After reading the positive reviews, we decided to give Gou a try. Let me just say we were not disappointed. The food is DELICIOUS. The atmosphere is inviting. And the staff friendly and present. We’ve found our new Haitian spot!!!

The food may have taken some time to come come out but when it did it was well worth the wait. The oxtail plantain cups for the appetizer were delicious and that is coming from someone who doesn’t usually like plantains. The entrees were comprobable to the price meaning you get both quality and hearty quantity. The drinks were very good would suggest the mango refresher. The host Natalie was great and I would highly recommend this restaurant.

The food was very good, the staff were pleasant and accommodating to our needs. The food does take a little bit of time to come out, but it’s well worth it for the taste and presentation. It’s authentic Haitian food and I will be bringing everyone I know here!

Flew in from Dallas and one of my teammates suggested Gou—so glad they did. Manny was our server and provided exceptional service for our team of 10 this evening. The food was absolutely amazing. Highly recommend!

I’ve been to gou so many times and this is the best Haitian restaurant in Philadelphia. I love the cleanliness, the customer service, and the food. Wonderful place to take any non Haitian friends or loved one to try Haitian food for the first time. The owners are very welcoming and respectful!
