50 Best Caribbean Restaurants near Bergenfield

“Great food. Try the Doubles which are unbelievable, roti skin with curry (Curry Mango is something you never see anywhere) and get the tamarind based sauce. They have a large selections of unique sodas. The mother and daughter at the store were friendly. This place is better for take out or smaller group if dining in.Kid-friendliness: The daughter asked my son about his age and chatted with him so they are caring towards children.“

“First time going. It was late on the weekend. Everything is made fresh daily so there was a few things that they didn't have. We got the curry chicken and curry goat, also a few beef pies. Everything was fantastic. The portions were bigger than I expected. Very happy with this p place. Will go again, just earlier next time.“

“We visited on a Wednesday afternoon and it was bustling. I imagine weekend brunch is a whole vibe. The ambiance inside is inviting, warm and cozy (see photos). I appreciate the artwork, photographs and decor. It speaks to the rich heritage of Harlem and specifically to the area where the restaurant is located. There’s a decent amount of seating, some tables are closer to others than I prefer. However our table was perfect for me. You can make reservations which might be a good idea. There is also a good amount of outdoor seating. Visit their website for the policy regarding time allowed at table (to be able to accommodate more customers)… seems reasonable to me.Maia took good care of us. She was friendly, attentive without being intrusive and on point. She came back and checked on us although the restaurant was bustling as mentioned previously.There is a list of specials beautifully written on their board. With so many dishes I wanted to try… I must return (maybe for one of the live music events). I was intrigued by the fusion of food from different cuisines. I ended up ordering curry chicken sandwich with salad and plantain on the side. It was a good portion. I was full without feeling overstuffed. Definitely worth a trip to Harlem to check them out.“

“Patrick’s Place is a nice little date night spot. It’s super small so it can feel cramped BUT the entertainment and service completely make up for the limited space. It definitely more of an intimate setting. I didn’t have the pleasure of trying the food but the drinks were great. The rum punch was authentic and you could taste the Wray and nephew, need I say more? The Jazz players and singer were really good. I would definitely come back and try the food next time. Parking is a little difficult as it’s Harlem and on the main road so just keep that in mind. There is also a $20 pp minimum“

“Went here for dinner midweek. Food was excellent. Great apps including empanadas. The beef one was exceptional. Also had a salmon crudo app which was on special. Many specials at this place. Fish is a specialty I went with halibut which came with an awesome leek based sauce. My friend had a steak and it came with an awesome sauce too. Desert was a banana bread pudding in a sugary sauce again. This place has sauce!! Service nice and friendly quite attentive. Place is big with a nice seating area downstairs as well as a private room highly recommended go check it out.“

“The closest you will get to Dominican food without being in Dominican Republic. The sangria is also extremely strong, which is an amazing thing. Absolutely love this place, strongly recommend everything on the menu especially the rotisserie chicken, best chicken ever, my go-to spot every time I cross the GWB. 5/5“

“We went there yesterday to celebrate my friends birthday and wow what an amazing experience! The food was great I had chicharron Monfongo. The staff came with tamboras y guira to sing HB. Then we went to the club site.Our waiter Ray was absolutely the best, always checking on us and making sure we had everything we needed. Definitely ask for Ray when you visit Bonfire.“

“Kingston Bakery has been my spot for beef patties since they’ve opened and I’m never disappointed. It wasn’t until I tried the actual entrees that I was completely hooked. The oxtails are so good and the stewed chicken is absolutely bussin!! If you haven’t stopped by now I’d the time and the portions are great too.“

“Living in the neighborhood we always get quick delivery once the food is ordered on the phone. In my pictures its the $12 Beef Stew Plate featuring yellow rice, beef stew in gravy sauce w/ potatoes and a cup on the side with red beans. Myself and my 14 year old young man always splits this $12 plate as you can see in the video. Delicious“

“I've worked pretty close to this spot for yrs and never knew it existed (rarely take Broadway), my crew and I are working a job right up the street and decided to check it out. I've tried pollo guisado, carne guisado and of course pernil (I'd eat it everyday of my life if I could) and ea dish was outta this world. Empanadas, chicharron and maduro are all excellent too! The staff is always friendly, the food is always fresh/delicious/hot and the prices are more than fair. Once again...mom/pop spots reign supreme!!“

“When I say AMAZING!! Rachel greeted us at the door . We came for happy hour. She was so sweet and an excellent server. The food was sooo good . And them drinks were strong but tasty.

Thank you CZEN !Vegetarian options: I had the bang bang cauliflowers and the Mongolian mushrooms. So deliciousParking: Paid parking right on the street and it’s free after 6“

“I was in the area. I googled this place and I wanted to give it a try. I was very impressed with the rice and peas and shrimp which had some heat to it. Not overbearing and very enjoyable mixing it with the rice. The lady who served me was very nice and I appreciated my meal I will comeback again.“

“I finally got to visit the famous Feroza's, after a friend brought me roti and doubles from there months ago. I had no choice but to double park and the restaurant appeared to be closed since the front grill was pulled down. It turns out they were closing early as they were running out of some popular items, which was a good sign to me. I joined what seemed like a long line and was there for about 35 minutes. The food was delicious and fresh, and prices were reasonable, though no menu is posted."Cash only" is inconvenient in this day and age but I knew it was going to be worth it.This is one of those places I know I'll be back to. I ate 3 doubles within 5 min of getting back in the car!!“

“I ordered ackee which was Served with yam, bananas, dumplings, perfectly done. Very very, very tasty. Excellent..The chicken soup As well. This whole meal was very well done. No problems at all THE AE and the sol Fish very tasty. The soup had a combination of vegetables as well as great seasoning freshly done excellent the best I have tasted in this Rockland County well done indeed..I certainly will be ordering from this restaurant in the future.“

“Got the Goat, rice, Mac and cheese, plantains. Wife got the curry chicken rice cabbage sweet potatoes about $13 each. One plate filled me up. Portions are good, taste is really good, better than some places in Brooklyn. 10/10 will be back again!Parking: Not a lot of parking but I always find a space.“

“The food is delicious—the flavors clean and bright. We started with guacamole served with plantain chips and chorizo sautéed with onions. I had the skirt steak with yucca fries and dirty rice. All well prepared. The service is friendly and well intentioned, but they could be more professional and check on tables a bit more. If you haven't eaten here, you should. The food is excellent and we all know you can't eat atmosphere.“

“The chicken with spicy guava was tasty a little to sweet ? I was looking for garlic on my testones. The kids enjoyed the chicken fingers though. And the cocktaiks were delish. I'll visit againOh, i had the shrimp in red sauce yummy, the beans n rice were good. The service was okay a little scattered and a little long on some things but okay“

“What a great place... Every time I go it's like I enter a store in Colombia for a moment, you breathe Colombian air! The people who serve are very friendly (there is a boy who always has a smile for the customers), I love the food they sell there, ufff it is delicious!!!!I go very often to buy cheese bread, the 9 am type is warm and super spongy. I really want to congratulate the staff for doing their job very well.PS: It's incredible but every time I go to the market Colombian music plays: cumbia, salsa, merengue, etc., good for that! My only small recommendation is to turn down the music a little since sometimes it sounds very loud.“

“Been to this place twice! Soon as we got off the bus, we headed here. Oxtail is so good! I'm not usually a persons who likes fat on their meat, but they cook and season it so well that u can't help to clean the bone. Mac & cheese is so good and the yams are so sweet! Love a sweet & savory combo. That tea was sweet & refreshing. They were out of the potatoes and chickpeas which was great last time so next time! Such a staple when touchdown.“

“Authentic West African food and delicious. This is a rare find in Bergen County plus there's a market next door that also has Caribbean and West African items you'd have to go to NYC to find or farther out in New Jersey. Prices are affordable too.To be frank, I know the owners and they built the market and restaurant they'd want for themselves. What I can tell you is that they've succeeded brilliantly.“

“I work right in front of tropical and I love coming here all the time! The staff are super friendly and helpful (shout out to Eulise) he makes sure to go above and beyond. Not only that but their smoothies and drinks are so good!! We definitely recommend coming here!!“

“Don’t let the long line turn you away, this place is the real deal, they do the hustle and the line moves very quickly. The food is authentic and out of this world delicious. I’ll be smiling for days knowing you’re right across the street from where we are staying. Jamrock Jerk: Thanks for giving this island gyull a taste of home. You guys and gals rock! OneLove.“

“Came here on a Thurs late morning/early afternoon. We were greeted and served by the owner, what a pleasure. The ginger tea was AMAZING, large slices of ginger were served in the cutest personal size carafes which made the tea nice and STRONG. I ordered the red snapper w Mac n cheese and my finacé had the shrimp and grits. I rarely eat all of my food but I didn’t want to stop eating. I’m not a big grits fan but these were delicious coming from a non grits fan. Will definitely come again!“

“I love their seafood paella, and the fried yuca. The paella was so delicious. The seafoods were fresh and the seasoning was great. It’s probably not the traditional paella, but I didn’t mind. The fried yuca sticks were soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. It was my first time trying the fries and I fell in love with it. It makes my mouth water writing this review!Vegetarian options: Fried plantains, fried yuca, and salads.“

“I’ve had this location cater a gathering for me at least 2 times and each time has been a hit! Friends always ask me where I got the food from. The staff is friendly, professional and they know how to cook! I appreciate all of their help and I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again!“

“Let me start by saying the place is amazing. love the overall vibe here at Casa Fuego great for any occasion. To start my girlfriend and I ordered the housemade empanadas we chose the chicken option it was so flavorful, and the cilantro aioli was a perfect match for the dish. For our drinks, My GF ordered the Fresa Paloma And I ordered the coco loco mojito. I recommend these drinks big time. Now for our entrée, my GF ordered Mofongo & Camarones and I ordered the Pernil. These dishes were flavorful. probably the best I had around Yonkers in my opinion. And now for our dessert, we ordered the Tres leches cake. It was just "ok" in my opinion. It tasted icy if I was to say maybe being In the fridge for too long??? Other than that This place was amazing.... Must try if you haven't been yet. Oh sorry, I forgot to mention the service here. The service was amazing the staff was very friendly and welcoming Franco waited on us he was the best. Great job to all who work there keep it up.“

“OH! MY! GOD!!!! I just ate there today for the first time taking a risk and OMG it was SO GOOD!!! Also, the restaraunt is very clean and I love the decor on the inside. Small, intimate, but very nice and welcoming. I had fried fish and Yuca and it was absolutely divine“

“From the phone call to in person. The team was amazing, we drove from Long Island, NY to celebrate my Auntie 77th birthday celebration on Saturday. Crystal( I hope I spelled it correctly) was FANASTIC. She was so accommodating and pleasant with my family. Overall, the food was great too! We had a good time, we will def take the drive next time for another occasion.THANK YOU SO MUCH, Tanya/ Tania.“

“Hands ✋? ?? DOWN the BEST Jamaican food in the Bronx! Small in size, colossal flavors though, great selections, excellent customer service, and incredibly tasty food. The portions are insane in comparison to quantity, well beyond worth the money. Small plates to catered trays, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They're cooking on the premises, and it's magic ✨️ ?? Gotta be.. Pictured is a medium Whiting meal ??$14 ... a medium!“

“If you work in or around the Bronx courthouses, this is where you should be eating. There's really nothing else that compares in terms of quality, value, and service. Great food, great people, and a great big line; for a reason!I recommend: the menu in its entirety.“

“We went here for my birthday February 2020!!! The food, drinks and staff were AMAZING!!! I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant and can’t wait to go back! The oxtail, rice and peas, Mac and cheese...even the side salad and plaintains were PERFECTION. The customer service made us feel like we were at a resort restaurant in Jamaica, they made us feel like royalty.“

“This is a great place to eat. Vendors are friendly and food is really good. The j*** chicken was my favorite (really hot, yes!) and the rice is soft, well cooked. They also have a variety of salad mix. The potato salad was really good. I'm not a fish eater but even the seafood smell good. Price is reasonable, I think it's 9$ a pound but less money if the weight is less. It's definitely worth it.Vegetarian options: They have a variety of mixes for salad.“

“I rarely get take out food or even go inside fast food spots so I'm glad to have a healthy take out option in my hood. Any kind of natural herb or vitamin or natural supplement or what ever health item(s) you're looking for these beautiful people have it. If you so happen to need any tips or advice on health, these people got you. Cool Vibe Uptown on Nereid . Just thought I'd put y'all on. I recommend the Jerk Plantain Patty . That joint something special #Support #YourOwn“

“I came today for my late weekend birthday. ?????? Brianna B ?????was my waitress and she was amazing from the start to the end of leavings. She kept checking on me and my friend to make sure everything was good or if we needed anything. She’s very approachable! Loved her energy! And tell the chef his cooking is a blessing! The pictures don’t show how good the food was. Thank you! Definitely will be back again!“

“They certainly is A Mama in this kitchen with blessed hand. Food is constantly good and always hits the right spot. If you don't know how to cook and your trying to get to your mans's heart. Pick up food from Mama'a kitchen and you found yourself another way?. Another Grocksmooth approval!“

“I've only been for their breakfast which is reminiscent of Dominican mangu with 3 golpes and pickled onions. Really good and affordable. Their tequeños which are breaded cheese sticks and choice of two sauces, one Cilantro based and the other mayo ketchup are delicious. Excellent juices that are not too sweet. Overall good in my book.“

“Absolutely the one-and-only stop for authentic Jamaican patties! Flaky, golden brown and bursting with flavor, this independent shop makes everything fresh daily and efficiently serves customers who regularly line-up out the door. Vegetarian and meat options provide lots of choices and are always excellent.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options available!Kid-friendliness: Kids love Jamaican patties!“

“I just would like to say I love this restaurant so much everything is always so flavorful and worth the money. To anyone who reads any negative reviews about the owner PLEASE do not listen to that. He is a kind man and I see a few reviews of people saying he’s rude and miserable and that is Not true at all. Wonderful food and service. I will be back with my food pics ?“

“Came in with my fam from MD for some traditional Dominican Food. My nephew wanted to come back here to celebrate his 15th bday. He and everyone definitely loved our dishes. Friendly service. The new location is much better. Wish you all the best with this gorgeous location! Can’t wait to come back.“

“This was my first time eat from here...and I must say it did not disappoint. My food was amazing , Jasmine and Arianna was so pleasant. By far some of the best customer service I have ever had.I purchased 2 chicken fried Rice, Lamb fried Rice, 1 House special ...I highly Recommend“

“I have ordered both in the restaurant which is extremely small with no seating.I also had it delivered the food was well packaged.As it pertains to the food itself the food is well seasoned. The only dish I would state that needs a bit of a change is saltfish, and ackee whichwas a bit greasy and the dumplings needed to be fried a bit softer and needed a bit of seasoning. It is only on the breakfast menu, I would suggest to make this dish throughout the day.Otherwise, the food is great and I would highly recommend it.“

“The food has that Dominican taste if that’s what you’re in the mood for. Delivery can take a little longer than expected, but usually not that long of a wait. The“chicharrón de pollo sin hueso”is pretty good tasting, softly fried breaded boneless chicken. can’t go wrong.“

“I used to live a few blocks away. I live in Westchester now and still drive back uptown for the food. Fried chicken is perfectly seasoned and fried. The owner and workers are very friendly. Just gotta get there early if you want Mac and cheese tho lol oh and if you don't see any fish Just ask and wait a lil. It's worth it trust me!“

“This place was and is amazing . The service , food and vibe was nothing short of perfect. I do appreciate people who understand the importance of not only good service but great food. If your ever in New York this is your place for roti and so much more . Thank you to this beautiful couple that serve us while in there space . It didn’t feel like a resturant and felt like having dinner at love one’s home. Thank you!Vegetarian options: Veggie roti , lentil soup , yams , cabbage and collards“

“There are many foods options to choose from, such as authentic Jamaican curry goat, tripe with beans and fried chicken are my faves - good portions with great taste. I swear someone's grandmother is in the kitchen putting in that work. I recommend this establishment and have gone back way over several times!!!“

“Not bad. This is a nice neighborhood spot. A place where you won't get anything fancy but leave satisfied, having had a good meal. The churrasco was a little fatty and tough but well-seasoned. It came with sweet potato fries that were crispy and simply prepared -- some of the best I've ever had. The steak quesadilla was also a little tough but so well-seasoned that the extra chewing required worked out in my favor. The side of mofongo was pretty good as well. There are few more things on this menu I'd like to taste. I'll definitely return.“
