Tamarind Island Reviews
The vegan jerk chicken mealllll try it nowwww it’s so much and taste so similar to regular jerk chicken
So much food for less than $20! I had jerk chicken (it came with all 4 sides listed!!), so much flavor. One dinner plate will easily make 2-3 meals for me. Spicier than I tend to lean toward, but I still didn't want to stop eating. Food truck style in MidCity, lovely owner, friendly staff... Can't wait to go back and try other options!
Amazing food and a great place to get Caribbean / Guyanese cuisine!!

Tamarind Island is a Caribbean restaurant at The Camp, offering a food truck-style experience with a permanent structure and outdoor seating. The menu features a variety of options, including vegan and meat dishes, as well as traditional drinks like cola and mango lassi. The food is consistently cooked perfectly, with the jerk chicken being a winner and having a kick. The fried Whiting fish is also a winner. The Sunday Oxtails are hands down the best thing, being tender and juicy with a slightly sweet and rich flavor. The curry goat, also served on Sundays, has a salty and spiced flavor. Popular dishes include Jerk Chicken, Curry Chicken, and Beef Patties. The restaurant is family-friendly, with a fun outdoor venue that kids love. Prices are reasonable. Customers have rated the food as delicious, with the jerk chicken being especially highlighted. Chef Lauren and her staff are always friendly and quick. The vegan options are impressive and definitely worth a visit. The Mac and cheese is a 10 out of 10.
