8 Best Caribbean Restaurants near Newark

“We recently hosted a bridal shower at Bahama Breeze in Newark, DE, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Our servers, Shannon and Emma, were incredibly attentive and resourceful—every dish for our group of nearly 20 guests was perfectly prepared and served without delay.

A very special thanks to General Manager, Mike Links, who went above and beyond to accommodate last-minute arrangements and ensure the bride’s day was perfect. He personally checked in with us, made everything seamless, and even took a beautiful group photo of our entire party—such a thoughtful touch that meant so much.

Thanks to Mike, Shannon, Emma, and the entire Bahama Breeze team, the event was stress-free, joyful, and truly unforgettable. We are deeply grateful and highly recommend this location for any special occasion!“

“My family and I stopped in here randomly by chance on a long road trip. I really like j*** food so this was an easy choice.Well, we were all super impressed with the whole experience. After talking for a bit with the very friendly owner, the 9 of us got a variety of menu items and they were all fantastic and really well executed. I had a jerked half chicken with some rice and peas, and green beans. The flavor was great with a nice, complex spice rub with some smokiness. Fall apart tender. The rest of my party raved about the ribs, pulled pork and tacos. We are so glad we happened to find this place!PS the Scotch Bonnet Aioli has a decent kick but is super delicious!“

“Picked up ox tail and jerk chicken today. It was ready within a few minutes of me calling it in. Staff were super friendly, food was fantastic and price was very reasonable! I ordered larges and felt that the serving was very generous. Dropped off jerk chicken at my husband's job as a surprise treat for him, he loved it as well. Ox tail was so good I ate the entire large container in one sitting! Highly recommended this place and will most certainly be back!“

“Absolutely delicious! I ordered the brown stew with peas, rice, and cabbage lunch special, and the portion was perfect. The flavors were incredible—especially the rice, which tasted like it was cooked in coconut milk, adding to the authenticity of the meal. I also tried their beef patties, and they were just as tasty. I’m officially hooked and can’t wait to come back and explore more from the menu!“

“Now this is my second time eating from this place this week so that should say something. I had the Oxtails which were very nice and tender. Today i ordered brown stew chicken and jerk wings…both were delicious. This is the only place in Bear that I know and have only ordered from and will continue to order.“
