Zanmi - New York

This spot is BYOB. But they have lovely juice drinks, get a pitcher! The food is tasty, on the spicy side but filled with lots of flavor I love spicy food. The service was pretty good and the ambiance is gives artistic island vibes.

First, I have to say, this was my first time at Zanmi 's and eating Haitian food. Both were outstanding and I will be back again. As other post wrote This is a diamond in the rough . The staff was very courteous, the atmosphere was great, the music was catchy, and to top it off the food was outstanding. This is a great date spot or bring the whole family. We started out with a mocktail (Daybreeze Virgin Mojito). They both were tasty but not to sweet. We ordered the Griot

Out of towner reviewer: UNBELIEVABLE! One of the best meals ever! My wife and I stopped by for dinner after arriving into Brooklyn for the weekend. Here?s what we ordered: -Kabrit en Sauce w/ black rice (very delicious! the goat was so tender. Note: this does have some spice to it) -Chickpea Laya w/ black rice (fully vegan and very, very good. A large portion, plenty to eat) -Macaroni Autin (possibly the hidden gem of the menu. So creamy, hot, and delicious) -Sweet

Great date spot! This restaurant has such a soothing atmosphere. The Kompa music makes you distress, the food will make your tummy satisfied and the presentation of everything around is aesthetically pleasing. I recommend the catch of the day to my fish lovers

The food was absolutely delicious. I tip my hat to the chef, who was absolutely wonderful. I got a chance to chat with him a little and expressed my enjoyment of the meal. I visited with friends who had not had Haitian food before, and I must say we all cleaned our plate. The staff was friendly and professional, and the space comfortable with Kompa music playing in the background. We will definitely be going back. Excellent.
