I came to this place 3 weeks ago with my husband and sister. The lady that received us at the door was amazing she’s so nice and sweet. She offered us water and visas and we took a few minutes to order. We waited 30 mins and got our food. The chicken choukouya and plantain, I got grilled fish with attieke and my husband got choukouya agnesu with plantain. It was the best grilled fish I’ve had in Gatineau since I moved. 10/10, well seasoned, big portion, it’s worth the 30$. The sauce was amazing too. I really enjoyed the food. We even came back for takeout the following week.

Thanks, I will highly recommend you to my family and friends

Came here because of good reviews, the reviews are authentic, Demi-Poulet Mayo is SO good. Hubby ordered lamb and very happy too. The hosts are kind and the quantity is generous. Strongly recommend.

Lia is such a pleasure to meet, she is an angel.

My first time going here and she gives me some rice to try that was absolutely delicious.

The lamb dish was so delicious, and the flavor was right on.

Even the hibiscus juice was a delight.

Definitely worth a try if you’ve never had African food .

Thank you so much for your pleasant nature and wishing you all the best .

I was there and it was time to eat so me and my husband decided to eat at the closet halal restaurant, which was Lia Cuisine, and it was the best coincidence!!! It was tasty, moist, and spicy a bit. I loved the atmosphere and the service, I will definitely eat here again, best of luck!!
