It's like going to someone's house and getting a home cooked meal. And fresh mango squeezed juice without extra sugar. And homemade habanero hot sauce. Creole chicken and jerk oxtail stew to round out the meal. Very delicious.

I did not eat at the restaurant, but I gotta say five star macaroni and cheese at the competition today! We will be coming to visit the restaurant soon enough to try everything else you have to offer.

What an unexpectedly amazing spot! The food was incredible, and the warmth and welcoming of the owners made for such a wonderful experience. I’m so happy this place exists in the upper valley, and will be going back soon.

My entree was the quinoa salad with sweet potatoes and black beans. It was excellent. There was a dressing on the salad and also a dipping sauce. Both were delicious! I plan to try the chickpea salad next and will definitely go back for the quinoa.

If you're in search of authentic Haitian and Jamaican cuisine, The Karibbean is a must-visit spot. I recently had the pleasure of dining there, and it was an experience worth sharing.
I ordered the Goat Curry, which was served with a side of rice and beans and their signature Karibbean slaw. The curry goat was flavorful and tender, truly a standout dish. The Karibbean slaw had a nice mild kick, which I enjoyed, but if you’re someone who isn’t keen on spicy food, I’d recommend letting them know when you order. For those who love a bit of heat, it’s perfect.
For my sides, I had the fried plantains and veggie patties. Both were delicious and well-prepared, complementing the main dish wonderfully. To wash it all down, I opted for mango juice, which was refreshing and sweet, exactly what I needed to balance the spices in the meal.
Dessert was the Haitian brittle, a coconut treat that was just the right amount of sweet to finish off the meal. Unfortunately, I was too full to try it right away and had to save it for later, along with the veggie patties. The portion sizes are generous, so you definitely get your money’s worth.
The ambiance at The Karibbean is warm and inviting, with a vibrant Caribbean feel that makes you want to stay and enjoy the atmosphere. The service was excellent—attentive and friendly, adding to the overall experience.
I had the chance to chat with the chef, a wonderful Haitian gentleman, and it was a highlight for me. Anytime I get to speak French, I’m thrilled, and it was a pleasure to hear about his passion for bringing authentic Caribbean flavors to the community.
Overall, The Karibbean is a gem for anyone looking to explore Caribbean cuisine. Whether you’re there for the food, the ambiance, or the friendly service, you won’t be disappointed. Just be prepared to leave with leftovers!
