    Delicious and authentic Haitian cuisines. Good music playing in the background. The staff was friendly and pleasant. Really enjoyed the Fritay. The Accra was a little doughy and oily but not bad. The only thing that irked me was the time it took for my order to get out, felt like a lifetime. Other than I like the vibe here.

    It's creative and nice but they take way too much Time to serve Customer and as far as I know Haitian food is way better than what they prepare. But I give a 10 over 10 for the creativity. A bit of effort and things will be better ☺️

    I came to this restaurant with my Haitian wife to try Haitian food for the first time. I had a pleasant experience here. The service was top notch and the food was very tasty. I had the goat with white rice and black beans. Mmmmmm very delicious! I highly recommend this establishment if you are looking for good Haitian food.

    A fabulous meal. Got the Acra and the legume. Everything cooked to perfection. Service was professional and friendly. The decor was nice. There is construction right outside that can get noisy but that should be temporary. Maison Kreyol is a top candidate for my last meal in the DR. I didn't take menu pics because the pics I saw someone post are still current. Highky reccomend.

    That was Dominican food. The food was not authentic. The sauce beans had too much salt. The fried goat was horrible. The rice was not authentic, the plantains were not well fries. I was very dissatisfied. I was a little tired of eating Dominican food, there foods were bit too salty, rice and peas was unbelievable. So we settled with fried fish and plantains only. And burgers of course😉

    We went as a group and staff was very welcoming, kindly explained us the ingredients of each dish. Cocktails were good, food is very similar to Dominican, and not as spicy as people use to say. They ran out of the traditional beer "Prestige", however, restaurant manager went to our table to thank us for visiting and gave us a round of cleren. No parking, but if u early 6-7 you'll find parking spots around the place

    We had akkra (love it!), creole chicken with tostones and creole fish with rice. The chicken was a bit harder to bite but tasted great. The fish was tasty too.

    We went there on a Wednesday for an early dinner. It was not crowded at all. Our waiter was very nice and took great care of us. We had akra and lemon juice to start followed by the diri djondjon, goat in sauce and fried plantains. Everything was great but the rice was excellent. The portions were generous and we even had to pack leftovers. We loved dining while listening to Haitian music. We will definitely be going back. One of the best haitian food I've ever had.

    Food was ok, but the waiting time was too long. Around 40 minutes.

    The food was 10/10 The Griot was great! Make sure you ask for red sauce on your rice and beans! Nice people too.

  • 5/5 Norman C. 10 months ago on Google
    It's a little more expensive compared to other places. But, it's worth paying the extra bucks for its elegance and friendly waitresses.

  • 5/5 Hannah S. 1 year ago on Google
    Good music. You have to wait a little for your food but we don't mind with how good it all tasted! Satisfying and fresh meal. I got the chicharrón, the best I've had in a long time. My husband got the pork in fennel sauce. Tostones with coleslaw. Everything was 10/10. Will come again. Flavor and spice!

    I ordered the fried goat. It was so delicious. The rice was delicious. The planting was delicious. I give it five star.

  • 4/5 Leury M. S. 1 year ago on Google
    Gone there at least 3 times and the only thing tha does not change is the waiting time , around 30-40min which is a lot, they try to have good ambience by playing traditional music in the background and the waiters are usually attentive and nice. The shrimk sauce was amazing, they didnt have prestige, so we just stuck to passion fruit juice,which tasted pretty decent, I didnt get why the main dish container was as small as the side's one, but well...... in general I could say it is a good ambiance, bill went almost up to 2k for a service of shrink and mero fish

  • 2/5 RONALD M. 1 year ago on Google
    I give Maison Kreyol 2 stars because the place is really nice and neat if it wasn’t for that I would give them a zero star. Plas la bel men manje yo san gou service la pa wow it’s ok but food is zero and very very very extremely expensive. M pa rekomande kote sa.

    Good food! Great vibe! Affordable price! Great customer service experience! Definitely recommending it to everyone. They have karaoke nights on weekends which make the place a lot attractive.

    It's ok but get ready to wait a long time for your food to arrived.

  • 4/5 Adam B. 1 year ago on Google
    Good service and good food. We ordered the fresh pineapple juice, which was fantastic, a whole fish, and a shrimp dish with garlic sauce. The portions were a good size and the food was yummy. A very enjoyable experience.

  • 5/5 Osvaldo V. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place to grab Haitian food. The menu is a bit hard to read but that might be my lack of proficiency in Spanish. The food was amazing and I loved the presentation. The food tasted like it would have been at a grandmas house. I would definitely recommend. I got the chivo with tostones, so yummy.

  • 3/5 Igor P. 2 years ago on Google
    Not impressed by the food. If there is no beer, I'll give them 2 star. Meat in the pots is very dry. Not much for the side. We were seated under fan and AC, in a 5 minutes kids got frost on the ears. It was around $80 for 3 adults and 2 kids. At this price range it should be a 5 star restaurant. It took 40 minutes to get order to the table. Menu was only in Spanish, no one speaks English.

  • 4/5 Edson B. 2 years ago on Google
    We love the food and service we received. We went back to eat there the very next day. The place was cozy and welcoming. The waiter's name Manora was above and beyond. She answered every question we had with kindness.

    Excellent food. I had pork in a yellow sauce and that was fantastic. 16 USD, and I had to get a bag to take away half the meal.

👍👍 The venue is very cute, the view on the ocean is spectacular. The staff was super friendly this day. The food was really good and arrived extremely fast. I had Mofongo (So delicious) and Sancocho (very good)! The only pros was the dessert.
