Review summary

What guests say about Ikaliko

Ikaliko is highly praised for its flavorful Haitian and Caribbean cuisine, with generous portions and dishes often described as delicious and well-seasoned. The service is generally warm and attentive, and several customers highlight the friendly welcome from the owner. A few isolated reviews, however, mention very unpleasant phone service and, in one case, a dish that was a bit dry and unbalanced on the plate.

I can’t recommend this restaurant enough. The food quality was a lot for just $20 not to talk of how good it tested and I had made it clear that I was sick and would love my food extra spicy and they delivered it. I am Super excited and grateful for fulfilling my cravings thanks so much

In my son’s top 10 meals of all time! He has a low-protein diet from HCU (like PKU) and he enjoyed the most amazing vege only dish made for him. My other son and I enjoyed pick and chicken dishes with rice. Phenomenal food, spiced to perfection. Jamey is so welcoming, accommodating, and really just awesome. We’ll definitely be back.

Worst experience. Called to order and had a few questions on the menu. and the guy on the phone was impatient and insulted us, told us “ se moun gonaive nou ye, Langyet Manman nou and more” 🥴🥴 My mom was shocked. I had never ever been insulted like that in my life. I pray this person find peace in his heart. Incroyable comme expérience.

Bonjour Votre commentaire est assez spécial. Nous allons en profiter pour vous demander gentiment de cesser avec ce type de sabotage svp. Depuis l ouverture du restaurant, nous avons des appels anonymes d insultes régulièrement, des reviews horribles avec une fois, des photos de plats qui ne nous appartiennent pas, des fausses réservations... Tout ce harcèlement est monté d' un cran lorsque maintenant on nous appelle et on nous met en ligne avec chaque nouveau restaurant haïtien qui ouvre dans la ville de saint- jean. L' autre propriétaire nous demande pourquoi on l appelle pour l insulter alors que nous pensions que c est lui qui nous avait appelé. Le but de cet acharnement nous est inconnu. Nous souhaitons vous demander d arrêter. Ce n'est déjà pas facile la gestion d un restaurant. C est difficile pour tout le monde. Les loyers les charges mettent la pression sur tout le monde. Alors svp arrêtez, nous n avons pas besoin de ce type de comportement. Nous vous souhaitons bonne chance. Merci

Awesome healthy food, great price, great taste. Coming from or to Montreal from VT, we are now committed to making this one of our pitstops. A great place to grab some food and good vibes. Each dish was unique and full of flavor. Perfect portions and perfect spice and flavor profiles. We are so glad that we saw this place and stopped in for some food. Definitely worth a visit.

The food here is absolutely fantastic. I never expected to find such wonderful Caribbean food in St Jean. The vegetables wicked with pork was the best meal I’ve had in weeks. I can’t recommend this place enough.
