Slamming Haitian grub. Not better than my lover’s mom and sister but certainly GREAT if you’re craving Haitian fare. Fried pork(griot) was tasty and fulfilling as was the rice, beans, and platanos(fried plantains). Everything served with pikliz(spicy, vinegar slaw). I believe they are english friendly so don’t think it’s necessary to pretend you speak Creole or pull out your google translator. We ate at location as there are chairs and tables for dining in and enjoying your food immediately. We couldn’t wait. Excellent authentic food.

Amazing authentic Haitian food. I felt like I was eating my moms cooling all over against in Haiti. Great service, and the food is always hot and ready to eat. I recommend calling before going to see what’s on the menus. Try the rice and beans with the sautéed red snapper or with the fried turkey. Each meal comes with fried plantains and they are made like the Spanish(toostanes) *spelling error sorry* I highly recommend this restaurant! #:(973)-373−2939

Wow I’m the first Review for this place… Jacob hands down is the best Haitian food i have eaten… it gives large portions .its located in little section of Newark’s vailsburg section the place’s décor isn’t that nice but its huge you could bring a group of people here now when i go there on lunch i have the legumes, or the griot fried pork. or cabrit –fried goat… all the food you ask for«complete» you get rice and beans… salad, fried plantains and the main course the women in the back always have smiles on their faces only problem is that i always order they the owner he charges a fee to use credit card. I mean seriously .i think he should remove that… i come from a haitian background .and this food here keeps us coming back for more
