50 Best Caribbean Restaurants near Hoboken

“A big shout out to my best latin place in Hoboken: Chango Kitchen. Traditional yummy latin dishes. Our faves are churrasco con chimichurri (skirt steakgrilled) and ropa vieja (shredded beef). My kids loved "alfajores with dulce de leche", "tres leches" and hot chocolate with when it's cold outside. Service is warm and friendly. We can visit the place multiple times and never get tired. #supportlocal“

“Celebrated my birthday here best experience ever hospitality was amazing“

“My wife and I generally eat for five people, we ordered 4 small plates and 2 mains, still looking into dessert. Each dish had its own layer of perfection with unique flavors and exquisite presentation. I’d say a restaurant on its way to becoming Michelin…..bravo! Oh and the ole school hip hop added to the vibe. Enjoyed this dinner date immensely!👏👏👏👏😍😍😍😎😎😎“

“Today, I decided to stop and try this restaurant. I walked in and asked about the menu, the lady at the bar help ( very beautiful). I decided on a chicken roti. When I got home and opened my package I was surprised at the size (huge) and the taste ( delicious). I will be back. 🥰“

“The food was great I went during food week. I had the salmon with garlic mash and broccoli. The meal also came with dessert and an appetizer. You can add a glass of wine for 5 dollars. For the appetizer I had the birria empanada my cousin had the island shrimp I believed it was called. The shrimp👍🏾👍, I wasn't crazy about the empanada. I would definitely revisit this place. Also the run punch definitely punches. Try it out.“

“Had an amazing experience! They are so accommodating and friendly! I can’t wait to go back ! Demmoy was amazing and so welcoming! One of the best experiences Iv had!“

“What an awesome dining experience. Caribbean in the East Village. The raw shrimp appetizer, the pre-dinner roti with dips, the fish mains with those delicious sides and the coconut turnover. I will remember that for a long long time. The service a little jumbled at the beginning but everyone is so nice. Great atmosphere. Highly recommend!“

“so great! the french fries are amazing and it’s so calming and welcoming. all the food looks so delicious, and the ginger beer is to dieeee for! 😉😍😍😊 if you’re in the harlem area, it’s a must try, and you cannot skip.“

“Visited for the first time on 11/21. Hostess greeted us and was very nice. The food was great, flavorful, not too spicy, thank God! Our server was not the greatest, however, Kio stepped in and made us feel welcomed. He recommended the sorrel rum punch and it was a hit. Overall a great experience and I'll definitely be going back.“

“Very impressed since they was decorating the place. I was passing by every day till they finally open and I desire to try the food, I was curious and also I’m not a vegan person. When I finally try that food I just got in shock. Super tasty, delicious, the Trinidad and Dominican Republic flavors- was so down the earth. So thankful to have them at the neighborhood, the service is excellent and Yesenia and her employees super professionals. The ambiance and decoration soo relaxing- I love the food and the service, how they welcome you, is hard to find a place like that. Highly recommended to everyone- vegan or not vegan- 🥗 the talent is there and I wish them success- nice location, sparkling clean - if you are looking for good food - this is your spot-“

“Great service, Great food“

“I went to dinner last night for a late birthday dinner. To my surprise, there was a live band playing music and it was wonderful! They even played happy birthday, so it felt like a personal treat lol. The food was delicious and very filling. We ordered the Branzino, Ras & Pasta, Mango Chow and Sweet Plantains. Everything was delicious. We had a great hostess and waitress. The only reason I gave 4 stars for service was because they never brought out the appetizer that we ordered. But once we ate our entrees, we realized we didn't even need the appetizer because we were so stuffed lol. I will definitely be back and will be recommending this spot to others.“

“food is bussing!!!. love the customer service 👌“

“I had a great time eating delicious food at your restaurant. My waitress name was Toya, she was committed to great service and was very friendly. The atmosphere was awesome and I definitely liked that you have a very modern style. Most importantly, every food and drink on your menu tasted great!“

“Delicious food & fabulous atmosphere and service.“

“I may have to give this place a second chance since the day I went may may just not have been a good day. To my understanding a staff member quit and our server had to assist elsewhere but it really messed up our experience for my friend's birthday. We wanted to order more thing but after receiving our main course we did not see the server again until everyone got tired of waiting to try to order our second round and just asked for the bill. I understand things happen just wish they found a better way to deal with being understaffed than just not being attentive.“

“Nice Place Food was fantastic. Oxtail delicious. Highly recommend. Bar Cocktail's are a disappointment. After sending the first Drink back the 2nd wasn't much better. Waitress explained they are prefixed. Please invest in a good Bartender who can make fresh Drinks. Thank you. Would love to come back .“

“Accidentally I stumbled on to this place,my mom is the one that goes here.She constantly buys doubles for the family whenever she visits.My wife came here also a week ago.Today I was just in area and decided to get the family 7 doubles,and a chicken Roti for myself.I was surprised the chicken Roti tasted real good.The doubles as always was tasty and delicious.So if you're in this area,they are not to far from Prospect park, where Empire Blvd and Flatbush Ave intersect.“

“We spent our afternoon eating here during our weekend together. Is there anything left to desire here? Their dishes satisfy cravings and the setting puts you at ease. Our brief culinary exploration here was reasonable. The spot offers an enjoyable setting.“

“I came across this place as I was walking up 9th Street soon as I walked in the music was great very inviting drinks very generous!!! I will definitely be having either brunch lunch or dinner here!!!“

“We ordered catering for a community event we were having and were so pleased with the experience. The food was excellent, the communication leading up to the event was seamless, and the delivery and execution were done on time. Definitely looking forward to having them back at future events!“

“I walked in on a Saturday around 12pmto get oxtail and their customer service was amazing. I got oxtail, rice &peas with oxtail patty. They were both really good, the patty was very flaky and sweet. I sat to eat and the oxtail was really good , they used a balsamic rice and I loved every bite.

I’m really tempted to go again and I love in New Jersey“

“This spot has won me over completely. Staff members performed with the excellence this place is known for. Despite beautiful plating, the food was overly salted. The menu covers various food categories. This place has earned our commitment.“

“Great food! Big portions, finger-lickin good“

“Good Food, Good Vibes, Good Wine Based Drinks and the best Chef and Mixologist out there.“

“The food was good, but they really need to do better about customer service. We had a party of Nine that wanted to dine-in. We were given no help only told us to put the table back after we moved them together ourselves to seat us. Luckily we dine in because we was missing a full order of Rasta pasta. My mom order okra and fish. We were missing the okra so they refunded me a dollar. As we were leaving the young lady approached me saying they gave her pumpkin that she didn’t order or want and asked for the dollar back. I was very surprised about that. As I said customer service was not up to standard.“

“I looove sally's. They truly never miss. The jerk veggie dumplings, amazing. The tostones, huge and crispy. That dressing the greens are tossed in? I'd eat straight greens everyday with whatever that is. Random, but I love their crushed ice. The curried chicken is my favorite but everything is honestly so good. Staff is always super cool and friendly and the music is amazing.

When friends visit from out of town our go to place is always Sally's - whether it's for dinks or a good meal, the quality and consistency is there and it's a neighborhood favorite for me.“

“This restaurant shows cost consciousness. The employee was cheerful while explaining what dishes contained. The restaurant is in a bustling area. You'll be satisfied with both portion and price. All in all, it's impressive and terrific !!!“

“Pleasant experience and beautiful place, nice drinks! Give it a try! Music, too! 🥂“

“I love going there i always get nice stuff and yes it's a 5“

““Delicious food and great service, compliments to the chef!” 👨‍🍳 🙌🏽👊🔥“

“First time trying Omars (as a trini it’s hard to find good Caribbean food) but they did not disappoint. Ordered sliders, ribs, jerk chicken and oxtail. Everything was 10/10 (the lamb was maybe an 8 for me as it was a bit too crispy for my liking) but honestly still so delicious. Will definitely be going again“

“The Food in Staten Island. I travel from Harlem just to go and pick up some food and I definitely buy enough to last me a few days.“

“Great staff and even better food 💜“

“Idk what happen to my review I left but food was really good. Service can be worked on but hey it’s expected honestly lol I drove 8 hours to New York for and stayed awake all day, got here around dinner to order food for the first time and the one lady was mad bc I was confused with veggie doubles vs regular doubles. Otherwise I would definitely come back and suggest to others. Spicy eggplant roti & doubles are soo tasty.“

“This is THE spot. Jerk chicken is some of the best I've ever had. There's a good char that's smokey and flavorful without any bitterness. The spice is a warm heat with the right amount of sweet. Rice and peas cooked incredibly well, not dry at all. And the cabbage is perfectly tender not mushy. There patties are low-key solid. Curry Chicken is a bit better than the beef in my opinion opinion. But the crust on all is flakey and the filling is flavorful with good spice.

I've tried the fried chicken and macaroni both good but not worth getting. I just got for the jerk chicken platter and patties“

“Had a fabulous experience with server Gina very attentive and accommodating. Jamar was customer courteous and was fantastic. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾“

“I found this restaurant on Tik Tok and I’m sooo glad I did! I had the best oxtail I’ve probably ever had!!! Thoroughly satisfied with my experience and will be sure to go again whenever I’m in the area!! 🤌🏾“

“Had the Turkey wings with rice & peas,steam veg & plantains.it was amazing..bess food.food lick“

“I've been here several times but, this was the first time I asked for veggie paella & asked them to add shrimp °•~ It was so good !!!

I also had Ceasar Salad & Shrimp Ceviche which was also good with lychee martinis 🥂.“

“Лучшее место в Москве чтобы томно провести вечер.“

“The restaurant has a nice vibe and the food was good, but not exceptional for the cost. Unfortunately, someone at the next table was loudly talking on his phone FaceTiming a friend. The wait staff should have intervened. It went on for about 15 minutes. We do not plan on returning.“

“We celebrated my mother’s 75th birthday with 40 guests at this chic restaurant back in April, and the experience was absolutely fantastic. I cannot stop thinking about how special this was for my mom. From start to finish, everything was seamless, and that was largely thanks to Kiara, the restaurant's event director. She was incredibly attentive, warm, and made sure every detail was just perfect.

The food was delicious, the ambiance was beautiful, the DJ was amazing and all of our guests felt truly special. I can’t recommend this place enough for any milestone celebration. Huge thanks to the entire team and especially to Kiara for making it a night to remember!“

“My home away from home. My go to place for back home meals. I am here right now Real Tim talk going in.“

“The food was exceptional and scenery was great. We had a party of 14 and everything went smoothly.“

“I have been buying from Suzys since they opened and they have NEVER disappointed me. The food is top notch and the service is an example to all Caribbean restaurants. I love this place. I buy a tray of goat for my Thanksgiving meal EVERY YEAR and it's always on point. I hope this place stays open as long as I live. I literally recomment everything on the menu. Thank you Suzys!!!“

“My opinion is 8.7/10. Is it the best Jamaican beef patty I've ever had? No but overall our place that makes handmade Jamaican beef patties with a good overall flavor I recommend it. Best thing definitely has to be the crust I just wish for $3 it was a little bit more meat / seasoning. Check out my in depth video reviews on any of the platforms below.
