Chef Paul Toussaint (Timeout Market Montréal) — Restaurant in Montreal

Went there before the pandemic, saw the owner watching over everyone, went up to him and had to congratulate him, food was spectacular think I had the rice, ribs, accra. Went back few weeks ago after everything had opened up fully, had issues with my passport took me 30 mins to sort it, finally went up to eat. Decided not to eat there for lack of effort on following protocols which I will not mention as all restos have suffered from this pandemic, dont want to be creating headaches for owner, only advice is keep an eye on your business, make sure your employees use their brains and follow pandemic protocols. Went to check mex joint, same deal protocols not being followed. Hit the Asian joints as they had it down packed (Thai 7/10 and Japanese 8/10), Time Out had the setting near perfect, but If I was them I would walk around and check if my tenants are following the protocols. Was super disappointed really wanted that rice and beans. Will definitely go back to try again but will observe b4 I order, hope they get their act together.

I have to say this place's food is like crack, I have to eat here at least...

The food court itself has a fantastic vibe—an open kitchen concept with great energy and tasteful decor that creates a welcoming atmosphere. I was thrilled to see a Haitian spot among the options and couldn’t wait to try it out.

I ordered the “L’Haitienne” plate, and overall, it did not disappoint. The griot was excellent—tender, fresh, and packed with authentic Haitian flavor. The pikliz added the perfect tangy kick, and the plate also included accras and plantains, both of which were well-prepared and delicious. The rice was decent, though not a standout, and the plate didn’t initially come with sauce. However, when we requested some, the staff kindly provided it at no extra cost, and it turned out to be absolutely delicious, tying all the flavors together.

The service was just okay—not bad, but nothing remarkable. Still, the food and the vibrant setting made up for it. If you’re in the mood for authentic Haitian food, this spot is worth...

Absolutely insulted with what they allowed to serve me. The seafood Jambalaya had to be one if the most saddest plates I’ve ever seen. Rice with risotto texture and a taste of heavy campbells chicken broth. Only two shrimps, two muscles, a pathetic baby crab stuck in the middle of the rice with zero meat. Simply looking like finding a mouse in your food. Two paper thin slivers of a sausage. On top of it all of it was dry with zero flavour other than the campbells broth rice. I do not understand why I didn’t bring it back for a refund. Incredibly garbage and insulting to serve that. I can only believe all the other plates are just as cheap, tasteless and simply put dogshit. I am sorry. No one should be served and treated...
