🍲 Oxtail, Griot and Cocktails
Haitian food in Bed-Stuy finds a lively home at Lakay Bistro, a compact restaurant at 55 Ralph Avenue. Tender oxtail with rich mac and cheese is the pairing diners single out, and it makes a persuasive opening plate.
Griot and black rice offer another route through the classics, with the kitchen leaning on classic Haitian and Creole flavors across the menu. The dining room channels the feel of a restaurant in Haiti, and the bar turns out popular cocktails. Order a drink with dinner and settle in at one table for the evening, letting the Caribbean flavors set the pace.
Owner Steve also helps out during busy shifts at this Haitian restaurant. Reserve ahead before heading over, especially when organizing a table with friends. The kitchen opens Tuesday through Sunday from 2 PM to 11 PM and stays closed on Mondays, which makes a late Haitian dinner easy to plan.
