FOOD. ART. CULTURE. COMMUNITY. 🇭🇹❤️

For 14 years, First Republic has been a place where our culture comes to life.

Around our tables, we’ve shared Haitian food and flavors passed down through generations. We’ve celebrated our art, our music and our heritage. We’ve welcomed families, friends, artists, neighbors and visitors, and watched countless moments become memories.

But through every chapter, one thing has remained constant: our community.

This Friday, August 28th, we celebrate 14 years of First Republic and the people who made every one of those years possible.

To everyone who has dined with us, celebrated with us, danced with us, supported us and called First Republic home, thank you.

This milestone belongs to all of us. 🇭🇹

🥂 Celebration begins at 8PM

Come gather around the table and celebrate 14 years of Food. Art. Culture. Community.
