Oxtail, beans & rice, plantains and potato salad(mayo) or cabbage slaw(vinegar).
Can't go wrong with the fried fish either.
The owners are always so friendly.
Thanks for a delicious meal every time. Can't miss spot when passing through LA.
Best Belizean food in SoCal.“

“My fiancé and I absolutely love this place! Every time we come in the area we drive 3 1/2 hours and this is our first stop every time! We were recently in town and we ate here twice between two days. The food is always consistent and so flavorful! It may look like a hole in the wall, but it is the best food around!“

“It is one of the best Belizian food spots in South Los Angeles. The portions are hefty, and you can feed three people on one serving. The Oxtails and stew beans and rice are to die for. ? we have had oxtails at a lot of places, and their flavor is the best. Small place, and they have dine in. It's a must try. I forgot to take pictures. Will update on my next visit.“

“Simply Wholesome is the absolute best. Healthy food. Healthy drinks. Healthy products. AND they are black owned. I love love love love this place. I have absolutely no complaints. On a scale of 1-10. Definitely 100. Yes one hundred. I visit everytime I'm in LA.“

“Love eating here! Coming from NYC, this is the closest thing I have to Dominican Culture in LA. Always recommend my friends to try their food and they fall in love with the flavors that I grew up with. Also, customer service 10/10, the Dominican hospitality is real here!“

“My wife and I went to Gold Spoon Jamaican Cuisine on Saturday September 14th & we enjoyed the Oxtail & Curry Goat meal with Pineapple Ginger drink. There were even people that left LAX Airport during a layover and took an Uber from the airport to Gold Spoon Jamaican Cuisine. It’s a great place to enjoy Jamaican food“

“Her food is the best. I love her oxtails. I love her tacos and panadas. They are very delicious and I get them every time and onion sauce is amazing extra me please!!! She is a very pleasant lady!

Parking: It’s a medium size parking lot it’s never crowded“

“We placed our online order for delivery. Once I called the store to confirm they had oxtails, the woman who answered the phone was very helpful in assisting me to their website to do so. Our order was delivered within 20-25 minutes (quick). We ordered 2 oxtail dinners, beef and chicken patties and fried chicken. EVERYTHING was sooo delicious! Portions were plentiful. You know it’s good when you are full, but CAN’T quite stop picking up your fork to enjoy SEVERAL “just one more bites”! DELICIOUS! Adding this spot to the dinner rotation.“

“One of my favorite restaurants authentic Latin cuisine. I have been coming here for over 30 years and was so sad when it closed down during the pandemic. So glad it reopened! Can’t wait 😜 to go back. I give it 5 stars for sure!“

“The food is 💣 . The staff was courteous and prompt.“

“Muy rico!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“Let me start with its a very long line & wait.

The food is absolutely delicious and the portions are very generous. Customer service is fantastic. But geez the long line up…we arrived at 1:25 they open at 1:30pm & there was a long line, I mean long but they did provide ice cold water which was refreshing & needed when standing in the sun for any length of time.
By the time we got into the restaurant, order, pay & actually get our food it was 3:50pm. They have seating available once you get inside and wait another 30-45 min for your order so you can relax.
Yes people thats how long the wait is. 2.5hrs to wait for food don't get me wrong like I said the food was great but just cant see myself waiting in line again for that length of time hence the 3 stars for atmosphere. I was told the line up is the norm.“

“I just ate here for my birthday on Saturday. I have been to Belize and this food took me right back there. The owner Leslie, is from Belize and is very friendly and attentive, as his the staff. Phenomenal food, and large portions. Get the sampler platter for your appetizer, you won't be disappointed. I highly recommend this restaurant. If you are ever in Gardena, you should stop here. Gardena Cinema is a few blocks away, and is also fantastic. The restaurant closes at 7pm, and most shows start at 7:30, so it makes for the perfect evening.“

“Only have had breakfast here (i wish places skimp on the white rice.) Eggs with vegs, rice, plantains n fryjacks. The fryjacks are amazing, i left with extra to take home & they were still amazing 2 days later.

Vegetarian options: Options available with no meat“

“Good food and great service“

“It was a really good experience 👍👍. Good Cuban 🇨🇺 food“

“She is always a nice person . Food is decent but portions are a little small as far as meat is concerned . Being from the east coast we have plenty of island cuisine . And it feels good to get some in Inglewood. All she has to do is offer a bigger selection of food . Normally it's just one Jamaican dish to choose from and bean pies and the normal soups and American food . All are great. Just wish she had a bigger variety“

“Excellent food !! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu“

“I order the oxtail dinner and jerk chicken spicy but very good. the Oxtail was delicious with rice. cabbage. My husband really enjoyed his food will be back“

“Excellent Tamales. We ordered 9 dz, including the Snow Crab and Nica special orders. Everyone was enthused with the flavors. The beans, rice and 2 salsas complimented well. All of my previous take out orders were equally delicious. Many of our guests are tamale fans. TAMARA WAS OUTSTANDING...“

“Ever bring on the menu was awesome!! This isn’t just a restaurant they are also connected to a Jamaican store as well that has all of our Jamaican favorites!! This by far is the best we have had!“

“Denise was awesome I ordered the browns to chicken haven’t been here in over five years and it was exactly the same flavors are amazing when I order brown stew I asked for curry over the rice and peas and I’m telling you it’s the best the plantains milk in your mouth this is five star all the way

“Great customer service First time I tried it suggested by my brother from LA!“

“Oxtail mac & cheese and the fish panades were delicious, plus nice and quick service.“

“We were here during dinner time, the waiting time is pretty short. We ordered 4 dishes, the two plates were very big, we had to take half the portion home. I didn't really like tamales, it tasted weird to me. The service is pretty no frills, not exceptional but not bad neither.“

“My go to for Delicious Jamaican Cuisine, my daughter’s absolute favorite. There’s a nice size parking lot to park your vehicle. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. And I’ve been eating here for years. Jerk Chicken, Brown Stew Chicken, Rice & Peas, Cabbage and Plantain’s. You want it they have it!!!! Location in Inglewood, CA.“

The food was seasoned to perfection and very delicious.If you're searching for a good Jamaican Restaurant in the heart of Los Angeles, look no further. From the moment you step through the door, you're greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that sets the stage for an unforgettable dining experience.“

“The service was great the gentleman name was Bryon he was very smart and on point. He was by himself but he had the right music playing and a smile on his face. My food was great the server suggested I try the j*** salmon with fried rice and cabbage excellent choice. He also mention Patties which I never had before wow they were good. I appreciate his patience because it was serval occasion were people just walked up trying to order while I was sitting down ordering. Overall great experience I’ll be back soon!!!“

“Peppers the food is top tier, oxtails yummy, jerk is nice and spicy, and the curry is my favorite. But they are always out of food. Always I suggest making a call before pulling up to this spot.“
