    The Deviled Eggs were amazing! Also recommend the Rigatoni Au Gratin and the Poached Halibut. However, I didn't care for the ceviche - it was very bitter. And I found the Bouillabaisse to have a strong fishy flavor.

    First night of new menu and manu good choices!! Deck breast served very rare, halibut was very good, bouillabaisse was delicious but not hot when served and same for mushroom risotto. For dessert cheesecake was delicious as was cookies and “milk”. Owner, Alfonso, was very present, helping serve at times and visited our table for feedback which is a plus in my book. Looking forward to a return dinner soon.

    Food was delicious and service was great. The boudin balls were tasty and I don’t usually like that. I’d have them again along with the deviled eggs. We went to Jacmel for steak night. Temperature of steak was perfect. We can’t wait to go back. I also enjoyed my Jacmel Cosmopolitan.
