While at a stop light in Columbia, on Dobbin Road, the driver of the van was in the left turning lane and I was in the correct lane going straight. When the light turned green, I began accelerating forward when suddenly, the driver of the van forced their way over into my lane, cutting me off, and almost causing a three car accident. Please have a talk with your drivers. This is beyond unacceptable!

Came here because of a suggestion from a friend and I haven’t really tried Haitian food before. Ordered the Goat stew in the entree section, which came with a few sides like the plantains and mushroom rice. The best thing I’d say was the Rice. The goat stew for me was a tad bit underwhelming portion wise and taste.
I typically rate food based on accessibility, this place for me doesn’t match the price in terms of quality and quantity.
Service also is not the best out there.
Still, if you want to experience it for yourself it wouldn’t be a bad idea.

The food was amazing. The only gripe I have, is that when I asked the waitress if there were free refills, she was vague with her answer. I asked her specifically if there were free refills, and she said yes. Then when I got my check, I was charged DOUBLE from what was on the menu. Apparently there was two different types of lemonade they serve. The one I ordered was $4, but the one I got was actually worth $7. They need to be more specific on the menu. Otherwise, it's a good restaurant. Just be sure to ask if there are free refills.

I ordered take out, spent $53 on food and it was barely okay.
The poulet (chicken fried) was dry and bland.
The oxtails needed to be cooked longer, they they were rubbery, all the flavor was in the sauce not the meat or the pieces themselves didn’t have much meat on them.
The macaroni was dry, not cheesey, and burnt on top.
Their sides were alright- they were out of duri Djon. The duri kole (rice and beans) was good. The pikliz was fine. The plantains okay.

A friend of mine wanted to try this spot so we did. When we arrived I found parking in the bank parking lot because it was closed. When we walked in the man behind the bar seemed to be rushing us to order and he was terrible with his customer service. I had to give it back to him to let him know and he calmed down a bit. In the restaurant they allowed you to eat inside or out so we chose out. The lady took our order and said it would be served in to go plates. I order the goat and red wine and my friend ordered the fish. The wine listed wasn't even available so I picked a red that might of been

The food was pretty good. I traveled over 30mins to come get some Haitian food because I was feeling home sick. My only issue is that I waited over an hour and a half. Google said they opened at 12 but they didn't actually open till 1. Then I waited 30mins for my food to be prepared. They didn't have any pate and the pate kode was going to be ready in 2hrs.

Little paradise. So decided to come try this place for a date and let's just say I do not regret it. The lady helping us was very courteous and nice and the food ... GOSH the food ... was delicious. That mushroom rice hinting at flavor and the juicy fried goat meat I got was just wonderful. My date got the oxtail which was okay just because I have had jamaican oxtail which I think was way better. I also got the cod fish pattie which was okay but a little too spicy for my liking. As for the drinks, I got juice and let's just say you can always tell the difference between fresh pressed juice and
