I decided to try something different on UBER EATS so i gave Shalom Antillaise a try... I do not regret ordering, the food is full of flavor and prepared nicely, premium beef was used and only the finest ingredients and presentation, it was cheaper to eat here then Macdonalds and much healthier. I have a degree in Hotel and Restaurant Management and a diploma in Culinary arts, ive been working in the industry for over 15 years and know good food when i see it. Good job Shalom Antillaise.

What a gem! It’s great to have delicious Haitian food in Gatineau! The owner of the restaurant is so nice, the food was ready when I got there to pick it up, it was still hot when I got home. I strongly recommend this restaurant. The riz collé is perfect and not too greasy, the sauce pois is delicious, the pikliz is YUM. I don’t eat meat but my husband and brother loved the griot.

I moved within Ottawa and although it’s in Quebec this restaurant ended up being closer to me than the other. You get a lot of food for the price and it tastes very good. Only issue I’d say is that the griot (fried pork) has a LOT of fat and skin which obviously, is even less healthy than the fried food I’m already eating.

Opened in the last six months. Very good food, in particular the vegetable and beef dishes. Lots of rice and plantain and very reasonably priced
