Little Haiti International Cuisine is a true gem! I’ve been here many times and the food never disappoints. From the goat to the turkey and their flavorful rice—everything is cooked to perfection. And the fried plantains? Easily the best I’ve had anywhere! The menu may be small, but every dish is made with care and full of flavor. The friendly atmosphere and excellent customer service keep me coming back. Highly recommend if you're craving authentic Haitian food!

I visited this Haitian restaurant for the first time and was thoroughly impressed! The place was clean, had a modern and welcoming vibe, and the staff were incredibly friendly. I ordered the stew goat with white rice, bean sauce, fried plantains, and pikliz — everything was absolutely delicious and full of authentic flavor. Compared to other Haitian restaurants in the area, this one stands out for both the quality of the food and the overall experience. I also learned they have music and dancing at night, which sounds like a lot of fun. I’ll definitely visit again! Highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking to enjoy a great Haitian meal in a friendly, comfortable setting.

Inside is nice, spacious to My surprise. Called ahead for our order and was ready after 10-15 mins. Not bad but the wait was worth it. Food was BOMB. Had Fried Turkey and Fried Plantain, shared it with My friend and it was enough for the both of us. Pikliz was tasty, had enough spiciness but edible and good. I'll definitely be Back.

As a passionate lover of Haitian food, I’ve explored many restaurants throughout the Boston area, but this place stands out with the BEST Haitian rice I’ve ever had. After over a year of not eating meat, I always make it a point to visit this restaurant for their delicious rice, which never fails to transport me back to my childhood. Being a fellow Haitian, I can confidently say that this place truly captures the essence of our cuisine. Each dish is filled with the warmth and flavors that remind me of home, and it's clear that the chefs take pride in their craft. I’ve also noticed significant improvements in customer service over the past couple of years. The staff is friendly and attentive, making each visit feel welcoming and enjoyable. Whether you’re Haitian or simply curious about our cuisine, this restaurant is a must-visit. Each meal is a delightful reminder of my roots, and I can’t recommend it enough! I always leave with a full belly and a happy heart.

Very spacious inside. Looked like they had a regular bar, seating available including booths and high top bar tables. The food was excellent I will definitely be back not only for the food but to try out one of the many events that they host.
