Real authentic Haitian food. Ask for the special lambi en sauce. It's not listed on the menu but the chef will prepare upon request. It's spicy goodness. The ginger mint sangria was also good.
Jelani MaleeqMay 17, 2014Great Food ... Nice Service ... Very pleasant chef who literally comes and checks to see if you are enjoying your food! Visit "Cynthia" @ the bar she's as sweet as she is pretty!
Keilon LawrenceAugust 15, 2013The food and presentation was great. The Poulet en Sause is a nicely marinated breast and leg in creole gravy. La Caye Boulet Sliders with cod fish are full of flavor, maybe salty to some palettes.

Michelle GFebruary 21, 2013Nice and cozy with friendly service. Grilled conch is delicious. Salads could be more inventive and robust. The Riesling hits the spot...yummy!!- Regi PointdujourApril 14, 2015You have to have the conch la caye. It's so good especially with the black rice.
- Keilon LawrenceAugust 15, 2013Amazing mojitos, try the passion fruit one. They don't overpower the classic taste of the drink with too much fruit flavor...nicely done.
P-LO LouisSeptember 6, 2013The B I saw on that window threw me off a bit-I'm big on those health inspection visits. But sometimes they might get caught on the little things. Hopefully they get an "A" when I do decide to be back
Patricia BradbySeptember 24, 2012The peach green tea sangria and the ginger mint sangria are both quite yummy. Make sure you get the black rice as the side with your entree. Yum.
Latoya SnellAugust 10, 2013The staff is wonderful and the drinks are fabulous. The soups are on point and food is fantastic. Great brunch spot.- Zuri DJanuary 17, 2015The salmon benedict is really good especially as a scramble for those who don't like soft eggs.. Yum :)
New York PostMay 30, 2013The garden is basic: metal tables with red umbrellas inside a stockade fence. But that’s its charm. At twilight, broiled conch with Creole sauce and black rice brings Caribbean warmth. Read more
DwigeeApril 22, 2014Great Haitian food and the flavored Sangria's were great. Especially the ginger mint one.
Peach green tea sangria. Tassot fritay. I've gotten lucky with the chicken and conch. Slow service.
JuliaMay 1, 2013We had to wait for about an hour for our food to come out. The griot was great but the plantains and akras a little too fried. The piklis were also not spicy at all which is unusual.
Authentic Haitian cuisine. Warm and friendly atmosphere. Try the black rice...scrumptious.
Charlene ManuelOctober 23, 2013They play Maxwell here. Solid choice for a pre or post BAM outing. Also, the sliders are pretty solid.
Marjy GAugust 27, 2012Not that many choices on the menu but the food was good. Come on thursday nights for live Haitian Jazz.
Graeme GouldenFebruary 6, 2016Very average meal and almost an hour to come out. Disappointing as had high hopes. Could have just been an off night...

"A really great theater with a really great selection of films and special events."

"Coolest opera house I've been to. In general shows at BAM are half the price and twice as good as most things in manhattan. Get more BAM for your buck"
Omar Haroun - 9.3
"The theater inside is a great blend of old and new. It is absolutely a work of art unto itself and a must-see for any NYC theater lover."
