R&R Caribbean Jerk Tacos • $$
3927 Main St, East Chicago

“Five Stars for Flavor & Vibes at Ray’s Caribbean Jerk! From the moment we walked in, the customer service at Ray’s Caribbean Jerk was top-notch—friendly, welcoming, and full of good energy. They even offered us a sample of their jerk chicken, and wow—instant flavor explosion. We knew we were in for a treat. We each ordered a dinner (which comes with rice and beans plus two sides). I went with the BBQ chicken tips paired with yams, baked mac n cheese, and the classic rice and beans. Every bite was soulful and satisfying—perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. He had the jerk chicken tips with the same sides, and let’s just say there wasn’t a single bite left. The heat, the flavor, the tenderness—it’s exactly what you want from a jerk dish. To wash it down, we sipped on Skipee’s Lemonade—I had the passion fruit strawberry, and he had the grape strawberry. Both were refreshing and packed with flavor. We dined in Claude & Ray’s BoomBoom Room, which added a fun, laid-back vibe to the whole experience. We just found our new go-to jerk spot—and we’re already planning our next visit!“

“We found this place on our way to Raleigh, NC from Chicago. Stopped here after reading reviews online. TRUST THE REVIEWS that say this place is good...IT IS GOOD! We just moved to the Chicago area from South Texas, so we know good Mexican food and this place does not disappoint! If you are anywhere near Gary Indiana, you have to stop in to Chela's. It's not fancy at all, but is very clean and the prices are good. We had the Birria Tacos, chips and salsa and several different meat tacos. Then, on our way back from North Carolina, we stopped in again! My fiance thinks this is the best Mexican food outside of Texas. THAT'S saying something! We can't wait to go back!“

“Food was ok. I was quite upset when they didn't honor the 3% discount for all checks paid with cash (as stated on the menu) and for card purchases it would be a 3.99% added to the bill. When I questioned the waitress, she said no. I said it's on the menu. I asked for the menu back to prove to her it was there. She went and got the manager and he said when they ring up the bill, it is usually with the card purchases at 3.99 and if you pay cash, that 3.99 comes off, but where does the 3% discount come in?? Still confused on this one. We wound up having to pay the full amount with no discount. They need to remove that from the menu as it is false advertisement!! The manager even said people question them when they say it's on your website and they don't honor that either.“
