Was really excited to try the jerk, but I’m used to Jamaican style. The sauce isn’t jerk sauce it’s stew gravy. The chicken was a little dry and the spices were more smoked than “jerk.” The rice and peas were good but the sweet plantain was hard and dry. Overall I was happy to find this option but would consider trying something else to eat if you are looking for traditional jerk. Maybe the ox tail, goat, beef, fish dishes would be better, may try one of those next time.

Delicious food. Huge portions. I had the jerk chicken with rice and peas and collard greens ($10.5). The place had a really nice casual vibe to it and the outdoor space was lovely and could imagine some pretty cool live performances having in there (which my friend I went with said they do have just not the night we were there)Customer service wasn’t bad, but it was a little confusing if we sat down in the courtyard if we would be served or had to order at the window outfront. Fortunately I went with a Haitian friend who was able to help me get things sorted out as we ordered.

Very,very tasty! It’s right off the high way and has a decent selection when it comes to food. Vegan options as well! The macaroni and cheese was bomb. But got a kick to it so watch out! Very delicious!

We were told of this place by our Tour guide in little Haiti. The garden in the back to eat is awesome. We ordered our food in the front and took it in the back to eat. I had the three vegan meal - jerk jackfruit, sweet potato and curry bean stew. I have had jerk jackfruit at numerous places before and this was one of my least favorite here. I eat everything on my plate except the jerk jackfruit. The others in my party said there food - fried goat meat and chicken, was just ok. Been here, done it..that's it.

Years ago I lived in Haiti, so I wanted some Haitian food while visiting Miami. I ran across Naomi’s and decided to visit based on the reviews. It didn’t disappoint!I had the Goat curry with rice and beans and the Mac and cheese. The portion was huge and it was all delicious,The seating area is a covered outdoor area and I LOVED that there were chickens running around. The space and the area, I felt like I was back in the homeland.

Amazing food, lovely outdoor seating in the back garden. Friendly staff and resident chickens made us feel welcome. Good selection of food...and everything was displayed in the window so you can see all the food before you order. Definitely recommend this place. If you're not familiar with Haitian cuisine...try it! You will not be disappointed!!

Prior to visiting Miami, I researched some of the city's best food spots. I took a look at reviews - oddly without viewing the pictures - and decided: "that's the place I'm going." I committed to the tourist experience and took the 77 NW bus into Little Haiti. Got off, right on 71st and walked less than a block to the restaurant. I could see the sign and colorful building in the distance.When I arrived, there was a whole spread of choices. I ordered oxtail, collard greens and sweet plantains + homemade passion fruit juice. I was invited to the restaurant's garden area, which was beautiful. Plants and trees, couches and comfortable seating, a small pond with turtles and fish and even hens and a rooster! Felt like what I imagine it's like on the island. I felt at home. The food: BOMB BOMB BOMB! So good, I ordered more to go. 10/10 would recommend.

Went here to grab lunch we absolutely love this place! it reminds us of our home Indonesia and the food is very similar to where we’re from. The price is very affordable and you’ll get a very generous amount of food. The dining place is huge and is a semi outdoor setting with lots of trees so the ambiance is very nice. The staffs were very nice too always serving with smiles! Definitely recommended!

You wouldn't have known this green oasis existed. The front of the restaurant does take away with a buffet array of dishes. For sit down, the entrance is off to the side. Jerk chicken, baked chicken, goat stew were good. King fish dish was flavored well but fish meat was tough. Service was friendly and laid back. It definitely does not a"typical" restaurant atmosphere but loved it.

Wow! Great service! The older gentleman at the front let us sample several dishes and was so patient with us as we ordered. The baked chicken and oxtail were extremely tender and flavorful. The corn was a little stodgy, but the wheat texture was yummy. The vegetable mash was delicious as well. The portions huge! Be ready to leave with leftovers. The lounge is very serene and beautiful.
