The 19 Best Haitian Restaurants In Miami - Miami - The Infatuation
"This small, cash-only takeout spot in North Miami specializes in seafood. They have truly mastered the art of frying fish, seasoning the snapper in epis, dredging it in a light coating of cornstarch, gently lowering it into a vat of hot oil, and then removing it at the precise second it’s ready. The result is a shatteringly crisp skin concealing moist, flaky, and addictively flavorful fish. It’s so good that you don’t really need the side dishes, although their diri kole is solid—fluffy rice, tender red beans, and just a slight hint of sweet cloves. And plan on taking this to go, because there's not much room to eat inside." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino, carlos c olaechea
Fidele-la Seafood Restaurant - Review - North Miami - Miami - The Infatuation
"This tiny takeout-only spot in North Miami specializes in seafood. They stick to traditional Haitian-style preparations and make one of the best whole-fried snappers in Miami. While whole deep-fried fish can often be overcooked and have a chalky, stringy texture, that’s never the case at Fidele-la. They have truly mastered the art of frying fish, seasoning the snapper in epis and dredging it in a light coating of cornstarch. The result is a crisp skin concealing flaky fish. It’s so good that you don’t really need the side dishes, although their diri kole is solid—fluffy rice, tender red beans, and just a slight hint of sweet cloves.

I come here all the time to get griot and rice beans with fried plantains and its always hot fresh and delicious. Plus i love that they give a good amount of griot for an affordable price compared to other Haitian restaurants. The restaurant itself is a hole in the wall but those are where you get the best food! Definitely recommend

My first time having Haitian 🇭🇹 food and it was delicious. My wife loved the rice and beans. I ordered Turkey with plantines it was so great ! A lot of food for 12 dollars can't beat that price in Miami. Parking is on the side of the building. The ordered was pretty quick I would say about ten minutes. The lady was very friendly who took my order. Definitely will be back.

The female servers got terrible customer service—bad attitudes all around. You try talking to them, and they just straight-up walk away. Honestly, the only reason that place is still running is 'cause their prices ain’t bad.
