Best breakfast I’ve ever had outside of Jamaica loved the authenticity in the food. A must try if you want real Jamaican breakfast. You can also find an array of freshly made juices

Authentic Jamaican food with a true authentic Caribbean feel. Food is great with plenty of options to choose from. I’ve tried the rice and peas with cabbage accompanied with oxtail. jerk chicken and fried chicken ( they were all good). The beef patties were very good with the distinctive spicy kick you expect. Make sure you grab your authentic Jamaican soda from the wide variety offered.

Good Life Caribbean is located in the heart of the Fair Haven neighborhood in New Haven. Street parking is available most of the time. I highly recommend take out only as the space is a bit tight. Regarding service I’ve always received a prompt and respectful service.

I go with someone else, they originally found this location while on their way to work. The woman who serves the food is delightful and the food is VERY GOOD. I cannot remember the name of the place but memorized the address after going once. The owner is an excellent cook. We both ate very well for $66 most recently. The Calaloo, Curry Goat, and Salt fish fritters are my favorites. The rice and beans taste like coconut, the gravy is worth the trip. Love it every time I go.

Love that there’s a true JA spot in the area with authentic, fresh food. The rice and cabbage were seasoned just right and cooked to perfection. That hit the spot!

Please, please get veggie patties ❤️

The food here is okay, the oxtail gravy could be a little bit thicker and richer in flavor. Overall you won’t be disappointed.

Parking: Not very much places to park, but you can find off street parking close by the restaurant.

Great food and atmosphere. Food prices are ok, but the juices are extremely high. $5 per box of juice

Every time I visit they're out of plantains or something that goes with the combo. The fried dumpling was a little dry and hard. Couldn't eat it.The dinner is tasty, especially the fried chicken dinner.
