50 Best Caribbean Restaurants near Opa Locka

“Best fried conch and shrimp ever. This is forever my place to go when I'm in town and want some seafood. The conch was tender not gummy or over cooked. The food was just delicious. The plate was overflowing, completely full of goodness. The French fries are lacking but the conch and shrimp makes up for it in abundance. Looking forward to the next trip just so I can get some conch and shrimp.“

“Pull up Eat Good & Caribbean vibe“

“Very good food nice service Iam recommending this restaurant“

“We choose it for dinner based on the reviews but after our experience we agree that the rating is too high. The serving was mediocre, the mojito was served in a water glass. We ordered pizza for the kids and the salami was spicy, they couldn’t eat it- a heads up would have been mandatory in this case. Despite all that the paella was very tasty, and one is enough to serve 2 persons. The prices are in the average scale for Ocean Drive.“

“La atencion y el ambience agradable“

“JRK in Aventura absolutely knocked it out of the park! We recently used them to cater an event, and our guests could not stop raving about the food. The jerk chicken, barbecue chicken and jerk fried rice had an incredible, scrumptious flavor. The rice and peas, steamed cabbage and sweet plantains were also cooked to absolute perfection.
​Not only was the food amazing, but the delivery was also right on time. Multiple guests were asking for the restaurant's location and insisted they would be visiting in person soon. If you want delicious Jamaican food, JRK is the place to go! Thank you JRK for making our event a success!“

“every Friday night is Happy hour with #dynastysoundz and Friends nice Vibes lots of special“

“Great authentic roti, large portions, made fresh daily. Duck curry, goat curry, etc., etc.“

“My husband and I eat at this Haitian restaurant whenever we’re in town visiting family, and they never disappoint. The food is always fresh, well-seasoned, and full of real Haitian flavor. From the fried turkey to the rice and beans and the sides, you can tell everything is cooked with care and love, not just thrown together.

What really keeps us coming back is the way they treat us. The staff is always warm, welcoming, and respectful. They make sure we’re comfortable, check on us, and treat us like regulars every single time, even when it’s busy. The service matches the quality of the food, excellent.

The atmosphere is clean, relaxed, and feels like a true Haitian home, with good vibes, good music, and good people.

Whenever we’re in town, this is our go-to spot. If you’re looking for authentic Haitian food with great service, I highly recommend this place.“

“The food is really good! Omg! The conch is so fresh! The cabbage is very tasty….. Everything was delicious!“

“Had a delicious jerk chicken meal! Great portion and well priced.“

“Great food and atmosphere! My faves on the menu are the authentic Jamaican jerk pork and chicken with festival or bammy, the seafood platter is to die for, and the oxtail is boss! The cocktail choices are also ridiculously amazing!“

“The food is terrible and a complete rip-off—definitely poor quality. Anyone giving this place 4 stars is either intoxicated or has never tasted good food. The Lo Mein is mushy, tasteless, and made me want to throw up. The fried rice is soggy, overly salty, and has no flavor. Absolutely disgusting.“

“Beautiful atmosphere and a great overall experience. I really enjoyed the conch ceviche, it was fresh and full of flavor. Stephanie behind the bar was very attentive and gave great drink and food recommendations. Definitely a spot I would come back to!“

“Had some drinks at the bar! Those drinks were the bomb! Very delicious! Amanda was amazing! She mixed those drinks like a pro! I had to have another drink! ☺ It was soo tasty!
Thank you Amanda for your professional & friendly service! You are the best!“

“Food and experience was top notch. Fantastic service from Maria was icing on the cake. A+.“

“food and the employees are awesome 👍 I really love their Jerk Chicken Patty 😋“

“we got to eat here today .... it gave me that up north Bodega island feel. we enjoyed our goat n chicken roti w pepper. much love ❤“

“Decided to stop while in the area and it did not disappoint. Food was very flavorful and service was quick. CANT BEAT THE PRICE! Let me say that again, in 2026 you cant beat the price. Not much seating. A must try if in the area. I had Jerk Chicken, rice and peas and cabbage with Brown stew chicken gravy.“

“Unbelievably delicious. I had the mango habanero bbq, jerk, and the breaded Parmesan garlic. Can’t wait to be back and try the other 57 flavors“

“The Bouillon was good. I would like two pieces of meat. I got 1 big piece of beef. It was well seasoned and just the right amount of spicy. I also got the spaghetti. Wasn't the best I've had. It was on the dry side. And didn't have any peppers or onion. I would go back to try something else.
The service was good. The older lady was very nice and the young girl speaks softly but she is also pleasant.
Tip. The hours on Google are not accurate. Saturday, they were open at 9:30-10AM. This is around the time I went.“

“I recently discovered this cafe has a large vegan selection and I tried them and absolutely LOVE IT! Their ital stew is delicious, the breadfruit is good, and the fried dumplings are amazing! The flavors at this location are extremely amazing! The cooks knows what they are doing. The only thing I would recommend is for them to look into making some of their vegan dishes like the fish, shrimp, or chick'n with different varieties of mushrooms or heart of palms instead of soy. I also don't recommend the callaloo as it was loaded with onions and it seems there was more onions than greens and the callaloo might have been mixed with a bit of other greens. TRY THIS PLACE! YOU WON'T REGRET IT! There's food for both vegans and their non vegan friends!“

“This is the BEST Jamaican restaurant in Miami right now! don’t argue with me, okay?! 🇯🇲🔥 Everything was delicious, full of flavor, and cooked fresh to order. We received such a warm welcome and immediately felt right at home. I’ll definitely be back! 😋“

It’s a must to visit! When we visit again from Indianapolis, Indiana, we will definitely be back for an awesome meal. The owners we great people!“

“If you’re from NY and want good food out here this is the place you wanna be at. The food was cooked to order, tasted absolutely outstanding. The woman behind the counter Darcel, was great for recommending if you’re indecisive.. can’t wait to come back before I leave to go back home“

“The food was delicious. We ordered the spinach and Lima beans, with a side of collard greens and Pikliz. The oxtail with rice and beans. The meatball with a side of bulgur and spinach. Fried chicken, fried plantains and rice. Everything was amazing. I don’t have a picture of the oxtail, it was devoured in seconds. You Must try everything, it’s incredible. The packaging is like thin cardboard, so if you got anything wet, you best hurry, cause it’s going to leak through.“

“Excellent food, service and portion sizes!!!“

“Omg!!! Oxtail meal was amazing!!!! Oxtail was tender and soft.. more importantly very flavorful!! Rice and peas was really good as well. Plantains very sweet.. Def recommend!!!! Customer service was good too. I asked for more gravy on the rice after I walked away and they did it, with no problem. Can’t wait to come back and try the other dishes.“

“The food here is absolutely AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS. I had the fried snapper and omg you can tell the fish was cleaned very well and seasoned to perfection. The rice, the pate, akra was sooo bomb! It was my first time here and I’m DEFINITELY coming back. Ang was amazing and helpful. She was the
Bomb.com. The vibe of this place is so authentic PLEASE try the food, you’ll love it. And if u like fish, TRY THE RED SNAPPER PLATE!!! I’ve heard the seafood legumes were amazing by a passerby, but I haven’t tried that, that will be my next order when I go…or the snapper cuz it was sooo bomb 🤤 either way I’m going back. THANK YOU ANG, you’re the BEST!!! ❤️ 🥰 ☺️ 😊“

“I’m new in town and I like trying different cuisine. I ordered the meatballs stewed with beans&rice. It was fantastic! Flavorful, nice texture on the meatballs. The rice was so good. I’m not a fan of peas but I really enjoyed it. The peas gave the rice another texture that was inviting to my palate.Thank you.Hope to try the oxtail next time I’m in town.“

“So I was coming home from an all day party, very late at night, and I was starving... stumbled on this Haitian food truck. I didn't speak French but the owner drove to the location to help provide service - super friendly guy. It was my first time having Haitian food and it hit the spot. Loved the griot and spicy coleslaw. The plantains are smashed and fried, somewhat thin crisps. Also came with rice and salad, all for $20. Just what I needed before a long drive home.“

“Here’s a short positive review:

Excellent Hispanic food and great service! The Mangu con los Tres golpes was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The portions were generous, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. If you’re looking for authentic Hispanic cuisine is definitely worth a visit. Highly recommended!”“
