Calabash offers a welcoming and comfortable environment with a lovely staff. The food and drink are amazing, with highlights such as the smooth Rum Punch, perfectly cooked Jerk Chicken, and delicious Jerk Chicken and Shrimp Pasta. The spice levels cater to a wide range of preferences, and the red beans and rice, as well as plantains, are cooked to perfection. The portions are generous, making dessert an unlikely option. The restroom features a well-designed, inviting space. The sorrel/hibiscus drink, greatly flavored patties, and authentic sweet potato fries are highly recommended. The restaurant offers good portion sizes, reasonable wait times for food, and a simple, stylish interior with chill Jamaican music. Calabash is black-owned and sells spices inside. Brunch is available on Sundays, and the Saturday menu is also highly praised. This spot, located in Oakland, is a hidden gem worth discovering.
