34 Best Caribbean Restaurants near Haddon Heights

“Today’s my 2nd time eating there. There’s a young lady who get the orders while the other does the cashier thingy. I appreciate the young lady who serves, she’s very pleasant both times I was there. She deserves a tip. I didn’t care for potato salad and cabbage with the added frozen vegetables, I’m so happy not to have that the first time, and I’ll order again if they don’t add that. Those items are great by themselves. Thank you!“

“The server was Great and personable. The wings in Flambo sauce were tasty and especially nice appetizer. Beef curry was tender and well prepared.“

“I thoroughly enjoyed the food. You must try the Happy Happy Drunk.“

“Omg!!!.Amazing food... so yummy, homemade, which is so hard to find.
Everyone is happy and welcoming!! Did I mention the food was Amazing..I've been there 2x in 1 week.. I had jerk chicken tacos, sweet yams, and corn bread 🤩. Can't wait to try everything on the list.“

“Our waiter was friendly and madw sure to check on us frequently. Our food was received quicker than I expected. The jerk wings NEVER miss. They're absolutely delicious. I was a lillte disappointed by the "spiked" lemonade as it didnt seem to contain any alcohol. Overall I enjoyed my experience and would recommend the restaurant to others.“

“First visit and the food was great.I appreciated the hospitality of the woman who assisted with choices of menu items. I definitely will return. I had ox tail, rice and cabbage, Unfortunately i forgot to take pic because I already ate it. My food container was packed well for a large take out.“

“Yesterday I got the Oxtails, rice & peas, mac & cheese and steamed cabbage. Every bit of it was delicious!!! the good there never disappoints! Kudos to the chef!!! Irie!!!!“

“Here is my honest review. The area is very nice and the ambience was very live. The look of the place was awesome and the decor was on point. The staff - A plus in friendliness. Here is where there is a flaw... The fish sticks were more breading than anything and lacked flavor. The water container was cute. The entrees were disappointing. The rice was old or at least tasted very tough and a bit too salty. The shrimp was good but needed more cooking. The maduros were delicious. The potato “patty” was cold and tasted too mushy and plain for the price that went with the pernil. The pernil was “okay” as it lacked flavor. The worst part was the flan! This thing was tough and never have I had a tough flan but instead it is supposed to be soft and easy to cut with a fork BUT this was not that. The coffee was OK at best as it lacked flavor though the presentation was nice. Will we come back? Probably not but if you are in the area for a nice spot for the “vibe” then this is nice. For the food, I cannot recommend it.“

“Is a Great place to be, but needs better bartenders, it takes Forever to get a drink!! Other than that is fun to be around!“

“Omg I’m amazed by the fish here !! It’s the best fish I’ve ever tasted and in the WHOLE city I swear by this place !! They have the most nice and caring customer service as well !! Will always b my go to restaurant!! Customer for life THANK YOU !!“

“First time trying this spot. Definitely did not disappoint! Very friendly staff also! We will be back :)“

“City Wide responded promptly to my repair request. Honest reasonable work. Very knowledgeable about gates and gate repair.“

“Found this treasure place when I was looking for Dominican/ Mexican food for lunch at work. Really really good slow cook ribs. I really want to know how they seasoned it even there might be some recipes online. When you chewing the chicharrones the juice/fat just come out and it taste really really good.Ribs/ chicharrones(crispy slow cook pork belly), rice and beans, salad, and maduros(sweet fried plantains) for $13.Do not go to Applebees, TGI Fridays, McDonald’s, meals from local tea like this gives you better and healthier choices, and they deserved more customers.Part of ribs and chicharrones(the part doesn’t include much fat) became too hard/too dry to eat after long time cook, some of them are not eatable anymore since it’s too hard. There should be a way to avoid this problem. As I know the Cantonese type Chinese BBQ restaurant has slow cook ribs and crispy pork belly too (with different seasoning of course) , but theirs doesn’t have this problem, and pork belly are perfectly brown. I don’t know how they do it. Maybe cover meat with aluminum paper and be more accurate at the timing and temperature by cooking them not as long as Latin chicharrones(chicharrones taste harder/crispier). If you try pork belly from both restaurants you will know what I meant“

“I enjoyed the food. The presentation was it for me . The place was very clean and customer service was on point , will definitely return. Good food good vibes yeah Man“

“My First Time trying their Food. I Loved how much Care they had when preparing My Order. I had a small Jerk Chicken Platter with Oxtail Gravy and Two sides Mac and Cheese with Mixed Vegetables. I also had another side of Candied Yams or Sweet Potatoes. Thank You D's Caribbean and American Food. 😇😎👏👏👏👏💖💐“

“Food was fantastic and the order was on time for the requested pick up, I even got a call back to confirm my order was ready. I didn't get platters this time, I ordered everything a la carte, by the pound. We got Pernil, chicharron, tostones, arroz con gandules, stewed beef, guineo, beans, and white rice with extra gravy. Online ordering was also a breeze, the layout was straight forward and very intuitive. It gave you options and even a small section for special requests. Definitely one of my new favorite spots to drop in to for a hearty meal. I'll be back again to try the rest of the menu and looking forward to grabbing some pastelillos.“

“Some of the best Dominican food you're gonna find anywhere outside the island.Spectacular food made fresh every day and a wide variety of dishes and drinks. They used to be cash only, but have an ATM inside and now accept card payments.Definitely my favorite place in the city. Try the mofongo with roast pork. It's extra garlicky and packed with flavor. The rice and beans are always perfect, and so is their pernil (pork shoulder). The appetizers are also worth checking out.Small place, and it gets crowded quick. Totally a place to visit if you're in the city or curious about Dominican food.

Vegetarian options: Not many options, but the few that are available are great.

Parking: Really depends on time of day.“

“I discovered ZumZam a few weeks ago.
I have been hooked since!
The Oxtail 10/10!
The Ackee and Saltfish 10/10! I've had this like 5 times now lol
The Curry Goat was 10/10
The Curry Chicken 10/10
The owner , Zum is always welcoming and his staff is very nice!
I have now introduced my coworkers to his delicious food (he cooks it all himself by the way! ) and they are already planning on what to get tomorrow. I think we finally found our fave Jamaican food spot for lunch!“

“I ordered a large oxtail platter with cabbage, yams rice & beans. My yams were very hairy like they were canned yams. I usually order mac & cheese instead. The rest was pretty good it just seems like every visit the oxtail become less & less (stingy).“

“The food here is very good. I’ve never had Jamaican food before so this was a very good introduction to it. I felt the value for the food was good as well. My only issue with it is that if you eat a lot of it at once, the saltiness becomes very overpowering. That being said, the food still tasted good as leftovers the next day. The person working that day was very patient as I had no idea what to order.“

“Easily the best oxtails I’ve had & you can’t beat the price point. The food is so delicious time and time again. I consistently order on DoorDash and delivery is always fast. The food is fresh and they’ve never let me down. I want to try other options one day, but the oxtails got me hooked.“

“Today, I had a taste for delicious Jamaican food. I live in NE Philadelphia, but I have no problem jumping in the car and traveling to Wharton Street in South Philly to see Mr. Rich and get his curry chicken, rice and peas, yams and greens. My wife likes the rice and peas, yams and Mac n cheese. It is so worth the time and travel.

The owner is caring and personable also. I'm trying to get him to have a location in the NE. I'm sure it would do well, ya'mon. God bless him“

“The food was amazing. The after party was even better. Will definitely be back!!“

“New to the city from NYC, so we decided to give this establishment a try. Didn't have to high of expectations so not to be easily disappointed. The oxtail platter, the pepper steak platter, and the brown stew chicken platter DID NOT DISAPPOINT! All the meats were deliciously flavorful. The cabbage had just the right amount of crunch. The yams were tender and naturally sweet. The Mac & cheese was seasoned to our liking. The rice & Peas gave me a flashback of my Brooklyn days! WE WILL BE BACK!“

“MANNNN OH MAN! Where to start… Trappixx is an amazing place to have a family dinner, date night, solo dinner etc. The Staff are amazing, friendly and on top of everything everything was a 10/10 best Jamaican food I’ve tasted ! GREAT EATS ! Recommend that garlic shrimp with the white rice ( mouth drooling ) lol but yeah definitely check them out !“

“Very good service and friendly environment 👍🏾“

“Yes I recommend everyone to Hotspot“

“This place is deliiiicious. I’ve only done pick up. Not sure anyone ever actually eats there. It’s encased with plastic, kinda loud from some big fans, hard to hear. But absolutely none of that matters because they have the best jerk chicken you can get in Philly (in my experience so far). I lived in Florida for a while and ate a lot of jerk chicken. And this place does it right. Glad I came in and tried it! The people are nice. I’m a repeat customer. And I have no intention of stopping.“

“best ambiance, great drinks and wonderful customer service“

“The food here is delicious! We tried the Oxtail with fried rice and mac, the Salmon & Shrimp Rasta Pasta, and the Sweet Chili Wings with fries and every single dish held such great flavor. The oxtail was so tender it literally fell off the bone, easily one of the highlights of the meal. Next time, we’re definitely trying the Oxtail Rasta Pasta.“

“So I got the Grilled Steak and rice and beans with salad and guacamole the steak was so juicy tender and the flavor was amazing this is a amazing restaurant and I will be back the staff is respectful and the restaurant is clean the food is cooked fresh right in front of you no complaints“

“At the first moment you step in that place the personel give you a pleasant feeling. Very hospitable hosts, it is a good place to go out with your friends or with your date. Great food, talented chef, comfortable cost and generous service. Warmly recommended.“

“I LOVE this place. First time there and I was blown away. I had the Shrimp Curry Platter, my family had the Curry Goat and Curry Chicken.

Everything was good!

I would definitely go back and can't wait to back.“

“The Ultimate Feast with oxtail, jerk chicken, curry chicken and 3 sides is a well prepared-and well-priced meal. The staff are friendly and patiently answer food-related questions.“
