Today was my first time eating at this establishment and the staff was very friendly. The food was amazing! True Haitian cuisine 🇭🇹. I had the fried turkey (w peppers, onions & two fried plantain) & black rice, sauce & pikliz on the side. (meal was $15) 😋 SO GOOD! I will be back within this week! I want to try everything!

Just had the best group dinner here! I got 15 of my friends to come and eat here because I wanted them to taste soup joumou and the service was amazing!!! She let us do a mini take over of the shop, played music, and had treated our party so well after we went to a restaurant that charged u $67 per head just to have soup for the evening. Her prices were fair and she really put her customers first and I felt really proud to have my friends see the best side of supporting a Haitian business that loves their customers. Definitely will return. I get that Zanmi is well advertised, but Haitian food is ultimately about community. We were scoffed at when we wanted to bring a group. I’m glad there are places like Joenise that give us options for Haitian dining.

The food was really delicious and abundant, event though I selected the “medium” size portion. The smoothies were also great, we tried number 1 and 16. The music or radio was too loud in my opinion, and it made it hard for me to talk with my party. The attention could have been a little warmer.

Super delicious Haitian food is what you will find at Joenise. If you have never tried Haitian food before you should know it is one of the most flavorful foods in the Caribbean. I had a dish of turkey, rice, plantain, pea soup, and a very, very tasty sauce.  I ate everything on the plate. I didn't even have a grain of rice on the plate when I finished. We loved the food. There is a lot of variety because the menu changes everyday so you can have a different dish depending on which day you visit. The orange and brick colored interior is clean and has an inviting ambiance. Joenise also has great sounding speakers that allow you to enjoy the smooth sounds of Zouk as you eat. The music will make you want to dance. I highly recommend eating at Joenise. We cannot wait to go back.

This is the third time I have ordered from this place. The service is always horrible as they make you wait even when you call in advance. They barely give you any meat. I ordered a legume from them today and it’s the last straw for me. It’s the worst legume I’ve ever had. I could not eat it. The white rice was also not fully cooked. I’m not buying from them again.

Amazing place for Haitian food, whenever I crave for Haitian food, I go to this place. I strongly recommend their legume and black rice, it hits right on the spot. Also, they have a pretty good lunch deal.

Okay this might be long review it was my first time buying food here and when I say 10/10 I will never purchase any Haitian food else where Delicious, customer service was great too I love trying new foods and I plan on trying everything on the menu

Food was incredibly good, well seasoned, flavor well balanced🤌🏾 straight up the best Haitian food in Brooklyn 🔥

This was the first time i ordered from here and will not order again. I ordered the beef vegetable legumes with white rice peas plantains and salad. The rice was hard. It must of been old rice mix with new rice. The sauce had no beans at all. The beef legumes wasn't bad. The plantains and salad was missing from my order. I ordered threw grub hub. They fully refunded me. This place wont get my business again.

5 Stars - A Lifesaver with Exceptional Service and Delicious Cuisine As the President of the Haitian American Lawyers Association of NY, I want to extend our deepest gratitude to Joenise Restaurant for their extraordinary service during our recent event. We faced a last-minute crisis when our original caterer cancelled just an hour before the event. In a pinch, I reached out to Joenise Restaurant, explaining our emergency need for fritaille for about 50 people. Their response was nothing short of remarkable. Not only did they accept the challenge, but they also exceeded our expectations by delivering the food within the hour. Their ability to provide such prompt and efficient service under pressure was incredibly impressive. The quality of the food was outstanding – every dish was flavorful, perfectly prepared, and thoroughly enjoyed by all our guests. Their fritaille was a hit, adding a special touch to our event. I am immensely grateful to Joenise Restaurant for their responsiveness and professionalism. Their willingness to go above and beyond in a critical situation has earned them my highest recommendation. We will undoubtedly be using their services again and I encourage others to do the same. Thank you, Joenise Restaurant, for being our savior and for the delightful culinary experience! • Madjeen, President, Haitian American Lawyers Association of NY
