I curry goat was flavorful, the jerk chicken was great also. The oxtails were fall of the bone tender. I wish they would have put just another one or two pieces in there because I felt like they didn't put enough in the dish. All platters came with peas and rice and cabbage. They load the rice so you can feed two people with one platter easily. Delivery was decently quick through grubhub. I would order again.

I cannot speak to the atmosphere as this is based on a delivery order, but I did speak to someone on the phone who was kind and seemingly attentive, but ultimately I don't think was paying attention and was just agreeing to anything to ultimately get me to place the order? Order arrived incorrectly prepared, missing entree inclusions and wrong beverages. This order was placed at 3PM ish in the afternoon, so I am not sure why items were unavailable. Felt dishonest and was a poor reflection on the restaurant's integrity. Called to ask for recommendations and asked for jerk sauce on jerk chicken. Ordered on Aug.5th and spent $65 dollars on oxtail, escovitch fish and jerk chicken meals plus 2 mild beef patties, coco bread and 3 beverages. I also ordered mac pie, but was refunded since they didn't have it. ALLLLL entrees were missing steamed cabbage and only 1 entree had a sole piece of plantain. Oxtail needed to be cooked a bit longer as pieces were inconsistently tenderized, 'escovitch' fish was just soggy fried fish with no peppers or onions to be found and although decently spiced jerk chicken was dry...like the rice in all the entrees because there was also no gravy present. The only thing that came correctly were the patties and coco bread I didn't really sign up to eat pounds of dry rice and peas. Don't send food out like this.

I had seafood soup, rice, some kind of beef thing, and a flan. The soup had a little bit of spice heat, not too much. Very rich broth. If there were any menus or prices or anything in the restaurant I couldn't find them, but it's all good. It's a little pricey for a guy from Mississippi but probably priced about right for New York City.

But as my second time…read moregoing there because I was in the area I was very dissatisfied.Not sure if it was because of the time of the day.I ordered jerk chicken platter and oxtail patties . The location is all to go so when I got home I started trying the food. The chicken was very chewy like old chicken when is dried up, it tasted more like bbq chicken . They do give 2 pieces of chicken plantains rice and salad. the rice, salad and plantains were just ok. chicken I was so disappointed of the taste and hard and chewy meat, the ox tail patties were also just ok not really popping on flavor flavor. its a Shame of the old chicken.

The atmosphere is bare bones. We ordered two oxtail lunch plates. The flavor was really good! The moro is standard moro, rice with black beans mixed in. Moro was moist and not dry. Both plates were huge. We got the lunch special for $9 per plate. What a bargain! Oxtail is usually expensive but the lunch price is extremely fair for the portion we got. Two lunches can feed 4-5 people. I guess it depends on their appetite too. If you split it with other there will be plenty of rice but the meat may not be enough but that is normal anywhere.

This was my second time visiting Iliana's Bar & Lounge, and I definitely plan on going back again…read more From the moment I walked in, I was impressed. The establishment is beautiful -- great décor, nice music, and a stunning bar setup. The food presentation was amazing, and everything looked just as good as it tasted. The mango colada is a MUST -- absolutely amazing. Our waitress was very nice and attentive, and what really stood out was that the owner personally came out to greet us. She was very welcoming, and we had a great conversation about culture, which made the experience feel even more special and authentic. The only minor thing -- it gets a little chilly when the door opens but that's small compared to the overall experience. It's located in College Point, which isn't exactly a prime location and parking can be limited, but honestly it's worth the trip. I just wish Iliana's was closer to me so I could go more often. I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone who isn't familiar with Haitian food or wants a great atmosphere, good vibes, and quality service.
