Haitian flavors.
The dishes that connect us to Haiti, from griyo and lambi to rice, plantains, and comforting vegetable classics.
Haitian roots. Jersey heart.
Our story.
A taste of Haiti. A feeling of home. A place where good food brings people together.
The heart of Lakay
A little love.
In every plate.
At Lakay Restaurant and Catering, a warm welcome and a shared love of serving people are at the heart of what we do.
Hard work, dedication, and care go into our restaurant. We find joy in giving our best and creating a welcoming atmosphere where people can eat well and feel at home.
Our love of serving people shines brightest in the kitchen. We find joy in cooking something delicious, sharing it with care, and seeing our guests enjoy a meal we’ve prepared. A good meal and a warm welcome are our kind of love language.
Here on Valley Road in West Orange, we bring that same spirit to our dining room and our catering: Haitian flavors, familiar comforts, and food that brings people together.
Whether you grew up with Haitian cooking or you’re trying it for the first time, come hungry, settle in, and let us make you feel a little more at home.
Good food. Good people. A feeling of home.
What brings us together
From our kitchen, with heart.
A warm welcome.
A place to come hungry, gather around the table, and share a meal with people who matter to you.
Food for your moments.
A quiet dinner, something to take home, or catering for an occasion worth celebrating.
