I love OLE! Just left my "MeTreat" and stopped in to get the goat! They NEVER disappoint with the food. Beware, the food is made FRESH! This isn't a fast food spot. They aren't taking food from three days ago and reheating it. This spot is amazing and it keeps growing! I've been going here for about 7 years now. read more

My name is K Brown and I visited Ole Restaurant Lounge a couple of times. The food is okay, it could be better. I heard that the Owners are from Haiti. Thank you. read more

My go to Haitian restaurant even though it's a lounge! I usually order pick up and it's delicious! My bf is Mexican and we usually order the legume. He gets turkey in his and I keep mine vegetarian because I don't eat meat. Don't hesitate to try it out either because they give a lot of food too! read more

This place is bull shit they will lie to get you in here bugs in the food one table to eat at I can't believe what I just seen in this place. I walked in and walked back out and they would not give me my money back please don't waste Your time read more

Terrible service, Terrible food, if you aren't Haitian don't go there. The music is so loud and just their music ( no variatity at all) it was my friend birthday and it was a disaster, some of the items ordered never arrived. Never going back there again. And the waitress was so rude, she was unbelievable nasty. We asked all separate checks and she brought just one. The food didn't arrive all together by the time the last plate arrived the rest of the food was cold. Even when you asked for not spicy food, they make it spicy anyway, it is like they don't even care what you asked or order. Don't spend your money there, believe me a MCDONALD burger will be a 100% better than this. For their convenience when we asked about the manager they said He/She wasn't there. There is 0 RESPECT for their customers read more

Came in & asked the hostess to seat me for a hookah & a couple drinks on a Monday. Was told to have a seat wherever & I would be assisted shortly. I could tell they were busy with food delivery orders so I took a seat & proceeded to wait for a server to come to my table. I was sitting for over an hour before any staff acknowledged I might be a patron there to spend money in the establishment. 3 half-a**ed apologies later I finally was able to place an order which was "forgotten about" by the server adding another 20 minutes to my visit. Strong drinks & good hookah but I won't be returning, consider this accordingly. read more

Absolutely love eating here. Usually get the griot (fried pork) and black rice , this time I got the tasso (fried turkey) it was soo good. Comes with your choice of black rice or white rice with black bean sauce, fried plantains, pickliz and gravy. Really really good. Give them a try if you want great Haitian cuisine. I've been coming here for about 5-6 years and they have been consistent. There was a time on Saturdays where it was hard to pick up call in orders. And now they generally don't answer the phone for call in orders any longer. You have to go up there. But the food is definitely worth the wait. We only waited about 20 minutes or so, but sometimes you just want to grab it and go so I gave them 5 stars instead of 4 because it's hard or damn near impossible to get a call in order now. read more

I came in at 11:00pm and waited around for 15 minutes and then I was sat at a table in the corner with a dirty cloth and a bug on it. After speaking with a server, I was then transferred to a table freshly cleaned. Where I was then told the kitchen was on hold and the server was unsure when the hold would end. I informed her of the distance I had driven for said delicious food and wouldn't mind ordering some drinks and a hookah while the time passes. Its not about the time frame because the food takes awhile but its delicious. Its the care that lacks. She came back and I was told that I can have my pick of food already boxed in the window that they had left available as the kitchen had closed at 11:00 pm. Which seemed very unappealing. Very disappointed... read more

I'm a foodie from NY and am currently visiting Georgia. This restaurant is definitely the best Haitian restaurant I have been to. The wait for the food was definitely worth it. I was starving so it almost made me a little bit mad but it was absolutely worth the wait. I will definitely come back to Georgia to come here and to also visit my cousin - but moreso for this restaurant Excellent vibes.... Can't stop raving about it!!! P.S. They don't answer the company phone so it might be a little bit of a gamble on if they are actually open or not.... (Only negative) So GOOD LUCK ! read more

It's unfortunate that I have to leave this post. Yelp advertises that they open at 5 o'clock we were at their door at 5:18 p.m. people in the restaurant workers that is and no one answered or bother to open the door to explain why they would not let us in. All they had to do was open the door and explain that they may not have been ready. Anyone could have understood that. Unfortunately, their poor poor poor business practice gives them a one star. read more

Tried Haitian cuisine for the first time and wasn't disappointed!!!! I had the fried snapper and o must say, it's prolly the best I've ever had. Highly recommend. read more

My favorite spot on Memorial drive ! Great food, staff, and atmosphere ! Perfect for a girls night out or a dinner date. Definitely my go to, that never fails. read more

Great food! The service can be a little slow when its busy but they're always friendly and helpful. read more

So this place is so ridiculous, we walk in all three of us it's 7:13pm I ask for two red snappers the girl in the front says she doesn't know if the lady is making fish and she has to ask, she goes in the back and then comes back and say she is not making fish now. Only turkey chicken pork and tilapia, and yes tilapia is a FISH. So I now change my order to. Fried pork fried goat Stew chicken turkey and meatballs, everything comes with rice either the black rice and rice and beans. So I explain. I'm ordering for like a little get together and instead of getting the rice next to the meat could I have the rice in a separate container. This woman looks at me the customer about to purchase more then 60$ worth of food and says NO we don't do that. So I'm thinking she didn't understand my request cause it's not unreasonable so I explain again can I just have the rice on the side she says to me again NO. So I walk me and my money out the door.Let me explain to you no matter how good people say the food is here this is not acceptable. I ain't asking you for pineapple griot I'm not asking for mango fried goat. Me or my money aren't coming back ever and you might say that's a little thing but trust I read enough complaints to know I'm not the only one. Peace and love to you!!! read more

Good food and good music. I like the fish but it does take time to cook. If you are hungry don't order it other than that's its really good Haitian food. read more

It's a good spot. It's very dark in there and not very family-friendly, so I wouldn't recommend it if you have younger children. The food was good, but I have definitely had better Haitian food elsewhere. La Difference, located in Lawerenceville, has better Haitian food in my opinion, but this is a good option if you're not looking to drive too far. read more

The food is amazing, the wait time is terrible. The inside looks nice on the dark, but it needs some work. Overall, the food makes up for every short coming--it's the best! read more

Is this the only Haitian restaurant in all of Georgia? Lol. Because if it is, then I'm OK with that! Coming from up north, one of the things that we have an abundance of all Caribbean restaurants, So you can only imagine to my dismay, to find such a shortage of them here. Not only do the Caribbean restaurant out here lack seasoning, but they also lack locations. I've heard about this place for awhile now and always said that I would try it out. The hours are a little inconvenient but when you actually make it to it, it is totally worth it! I ordered the black rice (Jon Jon) and the fried pork with a side of fried plantains. Now I'm Haitian, so naturally, I cook this kind of food myself all the time. So you already know, that I would be critical of other people's Haitian food and how it tastes. Normally I like my food served with sauce, it's like a traditional gravy that comes with all the meals. After ordering my food to go, I was a little upset when I checked the bag and there was no sauce, I thought the food was ruined! Here's what I will say......The rice was so amazingly flavorful, and the plantains were serve crispy and hot, just the way it should be! I was not disappointed with this meal at all, even without the sauce! Well seasoned, ate up e every bite! I would definitely come back and order food here again. I'm so glad that Georgia has a sit down Haitian restaurant/lounge that serves good food. read more

Ole has done it once again!!! I absolutely love this place. They feed me weekly. Amazing owner and best food in town. Today I had my usual fried fish, black rice, plantain. Delicious. I recommend this place to everyone. Check them out!! MissJayee read more

I went there one night when there was a talent show. The restaurant itself is very nice-it's not one of those restaurants where you go in and expect to be out in an hour, it's more of a lounge so you should anticipate to be there for several hours. There is hookah drinks and a full kitchen serving Haitian food and other types of food such as wings fries and things like that. The food itself is really good and fortunately it is considered very authentic Haitian food. My only concern is that time in which the food comes out - I waited for a solid 1 hour for my food and 15 minutes for drinks. read more

I found the Ole Restaurant listing on Doordash. I placed an order and when the dasher got to the restaurant, she was told that the restaurant doesn't do doordash. The irony is a restaurant won't and can't be listed on Doordash unless the restaurant actually signed up themselves. The dasher showed the listing along with the receipt of the order and the restaurant staff just walked away rudely. Doordash ended up cancelling the order. When people say Haitians have poor customer service, unfortunately it's true. The GHETTO. Do NOT recommend. read more

Love this place. Definitely the best Haitian restaurant I've tried in Atlanta thus far. The food is always great (the fried tilapia and steamed snapper are a must try). The service is pretty good, although I think they could train some of their servers to know the menu better. My only gripe with the restaurant is they don't always have items on the menu which one would expect a Haitian restaurant to have (i.e. white rice and beans). The lounge itself is okay, very basic. The music is always on point. Definitely a nice place to lounge, have some tasty food, and listen to some great music. read more

I was hoping to find good Haitian food in the metro Atlanta area but this was just ok. The ones in Lawrenceville are far better and worth the drive out. read more

I've been searching high and low for an authentic Haitian restaurant in Atlanta, specifically for my husband who is from Haiti. This place exceeded our expectations! And the customer service was great; our server/bartender Crystal was amazing. We will definitely be regulars! read more

really thought i was gonna leave that place giving them a 5 star but i definitely thought wrong... went there on a thursday night... very empty about 8 people was in there... grab a water while i waited for my food to go... it's no reason for my food to take up to an hour to come out if it's that empty in there... i was told they had take out orders over the phone they had to service also... the whole time i was there i only seen two people come in for take out orders... you are suppose to take care of the customers who are there first because half of the time people who call on the phone cancel.. the food took so long to come out i ask to speak to the manager and he looked at me and never came over... i guess he didn't wanna hear what i had to say... he was very rude for that because i seen when the bartender told him i wanted to speak to him and he looked me dead in the face and never came over... they are receiving one star because the food was really good... very poor customer on the manager part and very poor customer service with the kitchen.. don't think i will be returning read more

This was my first and last time going to this restaurant. I love supporting my fellow Haitians but I will not tolerate nasty attitude, especially if I'm paying $25 for mediocre fish . My sister and I went there last night and we received horrible customer service from the moment we walked in to the moment we left. This one girl that works in the front brought out our food and it wasn't what we ordered. She had the audacity to stand there and argue with us about her being right. If you go to Papadeaux for an example and the waiter got the wrong order, would the waiter stand there to give you back head rolls or go get what you ordered? You guys already know that answer. So why can't you guys provide the same customer service? So train your waitresses to not just flirt with the men and think that they're the only ones who tip well. But train them to know that they are the face of the business and great customer service goes a long way. read more

I heard the food was good. It say's open at 5pm on Yelp. I got there at 6pm and they were still closed. Do not go if they don't answer the phone. I watched two couples pull up and pull on the door Aswell. Such a disappointment. On the door the opening time is scratched off, there's only a closing time.,Lmao, so I guess that means they open when ever they feel like it. read more

Food is amazing!! Bartender was very informative in helping me order. Had the stew chicken and brown rice (must have brown rice!!) And also enjoyed a side of spiced cabbage with Haitian peppers. I live almost 30mis from location but the food is definitely worth the drive. read more

best Haitian food I've had in Atlanta I'm from Florida and this place reminds me of Florida's Haitian style food the price is good unless your a cheap-po/ food is really good / the staff is nice and welcoming I've been there a few times on a Friday nice and enjoyed the music. Before I found this place I thought I'd never find a great Haitian restaurant. I'm just still trying to find a place that has Haitian patties because they don't have that. read more

Good food nice place But needs improvement on their service Take off the old menu needs to play More Haitian music read more

I would give this place I love five stars, but the customer service is not the best. The food is AWESOME the majority of the time and Great other times. The music is typically on point and the crowd is great. The owner/manager is typically very sweet and accommodating, but his waitresses are not very good. read more

The food is to die for, but it is tough reaching them. I called several time during hours of operation, but it goes to voice mail. The hours of operation should reflect what's posted on the web-site. I wish they would abide by what's listed on the website so customers like myself would not get disappointed when calling and craving home cooked Haitian food and only to be connected to voicemail. read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants. I definitely recommend ordering the whole fish steam in sauce with the black rice. Since the first time I tried it the taste has called me back several times. read more

I was so happy to hear that there was a Haitian Restaurant less than 5 minutes from me. I took my mom and my husband; we were early so it was almost empty. The waitress is very knowledgeable about the dishes; you can tell she enjoys eating the food too. The service is a little slow which is understandable since the one chef does everything. And boy does she know her stuff! I got the beef and vegetable stew with crab added to it, my mom had the chicken with sauce and my husband had the griot. The portions are huge and the prices very affordable. Since that first time we've become regulars and we've taken friends and relatives back. We've never had anything less than delicious there. Their accras are to die for. They could improve the outside appearance and definitely have their name prominently displayed- I don't understand the name OLE - at first I thought it was a Mexican restaurant. These are minor distractions. I wish them much success; they deserve it. The food, the staff, the music are all wonderful and I would love to see a Haitian business thrive right here in my neighborhood. read more

Absolutely amazing griot and oxtails!!!! Best since leaving Miami! Compliment to Chef Naomi!!!!!
