I had a superb dining experience at Pepper’s Island; the food was excellent! I enjoyed the brown stew chicken so much that I had to order extra. The flavors popped and the hint of pepper took it over the top. The roti was next level, I dipped it in the stew sauce and lost my mind, it was so darn delicious! The service was friendly and on point and the island vibes were definitely there. The owner came out to check in on our experience and was very gracious. Nuff respect! Looking forward to our next visit! 😎

Authentic Caribbean vibes in the heart of Ybor! The food was flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. I had chicken curry. You can tell the food is made with love and real island flavor. The atmosphere was great laid-back, colorful, and full of Caribbean energy. The Staff was super friendly and made me feel right at home. Rodney was awesome he even handed out fresh mangos, which was such a sweet touch. Little things like that really made the experience special.

The waiters were attentive without being intrusive.

We had all we needed and then some!!
The food was just like home-cooking we get at the families' houses and we had more than enough food to take away for leftovers.
The staff was amazing! Sharing stories of daily life, reminiscing about Trinidad and sharing the fresh Mangos from the tree just outside the door.
Can't wait to return!

The whole experience was remarkable, being greeted by Dodani at the door and incredible recommendations by her and the owner made for an incredible meal. Beat Trinidadian food in the area, and will absolutely be back soon.

I LOVE going to Pepper's whenever I have a craving for curry.
The food and a service is always 10/10.
The owner is so pleasant and welcoming and the food is made to order so it is always fresh!
My favorites are the curry goat, roti and of course the doubles.

My husband and I came here because I saw an ig video and we wanted to try while we were in town. We ordered our food and left big mistake! It filled the car up so much we had to pull over and try the doubles we ordered stew chicken so flavorful! And the goat perfect amount of heat and the meat was so tender. We immediately decided to turn the block and order more! They pair well with the herbalade! We got mango pineapple and strawberry kiwi. Do yourself a favor and visit this gem of a restaurant and sit and eat bc you might want more 😋 (bring a dollar to find out about the chefs sign

Amazing food amazing hospitality amazing music so glad I brought my boyfriend to try this amazing tasty trini food. If you not Trini to da bone don’t get spice in your dish otherwise. 10 out of 10 would recommend to my Tampa and St Pete friends!!! (PSA warning on spice even my Puerto Rican bf said it’s hot but we still lovedddd the food)

This was our first time here but absolutely will not be our last. The curry goat was tender and so incredibly flavorful. The Sunday special bbq chicken was moist and delicious. Both came with sides of dal and curry potatoes that were equally as amazing.The chef was so nice and welcoming. Cant wait to come back here and try more of the menu
