“Listen RUN dont WALK to Tatiana's! Once you can get that reservation make sure you go! I went for my brother's birthday dinner and EVERYTHING from the ambiance to the drinks to the food was excellent. The staff was very nice also, and the management was top tier! I will definitely be back. We literally tried everything on the menu except 4 things! Oh and the dessert ....THE GOLDEN RUM CAKE AND THE BODEGA SPECIAL was EVERYTHING!!!! Will dine again VERY SOON!Dietary restrictions: The waiter or waitress asks if the table has any allergies!Parking: The later you go in the day the easier to find parking on the street. If you go earlier in the day go to a parking garage!“

“Was there last night celebrating a friend’s birthday and we all had a time. The food was amazing, the music was fantastic, and the owner is the sweetest. The restaurant is fairly new so, when you walk in please be patient. It’s only the owner and one other woman working there at the moment, but I promise the wait is worth it! Sasha makes you feel a part of the community the moment you step foot inside her restaurant. You just have to be there to understand!“

“Never been a fan of this chain but decided to stop by at this one today and I’m so glad I did! The staff was phenomenal and so helpful with me coming with a special needs kid in a stroller and the food was off the charts good! I’ll definitely be back at this location again ?“

“We went for brunch and got the croquetas, the tortilla cubana, and the huevos rancheros. The tortilla cubana (omelette with chorizo, manchego, and spinach) was great, but the potatoes served on the side were just ok. The huevos rancheros were good as well. The croquetas were very heavily breaded -- I would not order them again. I had the passionfruit mojito, which was good but a bit too sweet for my taste. Service was good!“

“Really great food!! Ok so first of all, those CODFISH FRITTERS?! An IMMEDIATE favorite! I could've eaten just those and been so satisfied. Also, the hot pepper shrimp were so good! I also recommend getting jerk pork spare ribs and can't forget the rice and peas. I always have to try the mac and cheese anywhere I go and it did not disappoint!! And their RUM PUNCH WAS SOOOOO GOOD!! Also, one of my friends had the classic Jamaican oxtail stew and said they LOVED IT! They had great music playing and even though it was kinda small, they make a HUGE impact. Staff was really cool as well!“

“Jasmine's is a rare find whose delectable Caribbean cuisine caters to the body and soul. All I had to do was to find their entrance door on Restaurant Row, which magically spirited me away to a tropical paradise. In fact, the artsy decor and upbeat music brought back fun childhood memories - albeit at a different tropical shore at a different time. They were memories of listening to Harry Belafonte's calypso records on my grandfather's turntable, as well as eagerly watching Sir Viv Richards take the crease on the telly, as he chewed gum in style and make his mark in the world of gentleman's cricket. Meanwhile, the staff seemed friendly and attentive and deserved extra credit for playing their part with their colorful floral shirts and outfits. Having dismissed the young waitress twice - for a duck, so to speak, and mainly due to my undecidedness - I finally settled on the Escovitch fish entree with a little apprehension. But boy, what a pleasant surprise! The well presented fried whole red snapper covered in various peppers, onions, and a spicy vinaigrette sauce, served with jasmine rice, was oozing with flavor and deliciousness ready to dazzle the tastebuds, which it did so well. The sweet plantains made for a nice side dish as well. Every morsel of food being chewed, if I may, was like a batsman driving the ball into the stands past silly point and above deep extra cover. After a wonderful meal, it was finally time to get back to the mundane city life. However, I'm not sure if life will be mundane anymore now that I know where to look for that escape door on Restaurant Row.“

“*AMAZING* WOW! My experience here at Harry’s Daughter was one to remember. From the ambience to the attentiveness of our waiter Gregory, I wouldn’t have asked for a better night. Gregory was not just a waiter, he became such a great host for our table! The food!!!! Oh my goodness! The Jerk Salmon was cooked to perfection and don’t get me started on the Jerk Egg Rolls! Clearly I’m a fan and will return!!! You HAVE to visit Harry’s Daughter!!!“

“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.“

“I love eating here. It's quite possibly the best Jamaican food in the area and in Paterson. There aren't too many cooks in the kitchen, so the quality control is high. The consistency of their fresh food is what makes me keep coming back.In my visit earlier today, they gave me the privilege to taste their newest food item, protein soup. This bean based soup is savory without using any meat. It's perfect for a hearty snack or perfect for after a workout.“

“Very good jerk chicken and cabbage. Service was fine but you have to wait. Staff very nice. Small establishment. My only gripe is I paid $10 for medium size chicken and it was cut into pieces. I don't believe it was half of chicken. Other than that it was fine.“

The Location is spotless clean, and you walk in and the smell of fresh Grilled Jerk Chickenhits you instantly.I Had the Oxtail meal as well as the Jerk wings! Both were so good!! & fresh!The jerk wings were Crispy and sauced very well! I also purchased a homemade strawberry Ginger drink, that was amazing as well.

“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“

Thank you for everything ISHMEL !!!“

“JULIA is an amazing and informative staff member. From greeting my party of 4, seating us, making food/drink recommendations, and even allowing us to see the “basement”, we couldn’t have asked for better service. Codfish fritters, curry crab tostones, ackee n Salish tostones, crab n salmon balls, all great starters. We had curry goat, salmon, and oxtail. All portions were plentiful and full of flavor. MAKE SURE you try the house made pepper sauce if you like extra spice in your food. A lot of rum based drinks but more than enough options outside of rum. And it’s not a meal if you don’t finish it off with the bread pudding, shame on you! Good music, good energy, great ambiance in a chill spot in park slope. Go hungry and leave full!“

“Delicious and authentic Puerto Rican food. The yellow rice is soft and tasty; it is very well made. The pernil is also very well cooked but does lack a bit of seasoning, it still taste good but I think they cook can add a bit more seasoning to it and it will be PERFECT! I always feel like I am back at home whenever I order from Mis Raices.“

“The restaurant's decor and high quality is a representation of my favorite borough, Brooklyn. It's luxurious finishes, seductive lighting, quality furniture, music, and of course wonderful service, created an inviting, relaxing, and enjoyable atmosphere. The Spring Roll with the tamarind sauce is superb. The Escovitch Calamari is a sheer delight. The Island Steamed Mussels with its coconut broth is amazingly delicious. My family and I enjoyed a beautiful evening and we're looking forward to our next visit.“

“I come to Y.U.P.P. just about every week and I have to say it’s one of my favorite places. The food is excellent, the drinks are great, and the staff is always very welcoming.My favorites are the YUPP Curry Chicken, Hearty Beef, and the Spicy Oxtail. I’m always on the go so this is the perfect lunch time meal to have. If you want an excellent patty and you want to hear some great music or even play PAC Man while you wait I highly recommend checking out YUPP! I also frequent both locations and I look forward to seeing the next location open.“

“Food is so good, and the people tending are so nice. Everything was made fresh for us on the spot, and it was delicious. I hate going to places and for the mofongo or tostones to feel like they have been sitting there premade, so annoying.We had a chicken chimi, a pernil mofongo, cheese empanadas, a morir soñando and another shake. The chimi was perfect, the meat was perfectly cooked and seasoned, the bread was nice and toasty, and the rest of the fillings were perfect. The mofongo was nice and moist, they also cover it with a nice bechamel sauce and the pernil was deliciously seasoned. Going back to try the reg chimi :)Pescado frito con tostones is very popular, two dif people came in and ordered it while we were sitting there. I'll have to try it too.“

“SO GOOD AND DELICIOUS ? I’m so glad to have met fellow Montclair State University alum Andrew Barley who told me about his restaurant. I said I would come try it out and I’m not the least bit disappointed and neither will you be anything but fully satisfied. I can’t wait to come back and try more things on the menu which means I will be back A WHOLE LOT! Whether you are vegan/vegetarian or just love good food look no further for THE BEST Caribbean and flavorful dishes in Essex County, New Jersey?️??—————Sidebar?Be prepared for possible parking delays depending on what day/time you decide to come✅And so nice to have met Tessa and Mama Barley???“

“I grew up eating Jamaican food and this is hands down the best Jamaican restaurant that I’ve been to in Brooklyn! The food is consistently delicious and made to order — no food sitting out on a heater waiting for someone to order. I’ve had the jerk shrimp, curry shrimp roti, jerk salmon, and other items and the food is always fresh, tasty, and plentiful. They sell juices and cake which are also amazing. I’ve been going here once a week since the pandemic started and I’m always so excited to get my food. The owner is amazing and is dedicated to always providing five star service and food.“

“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!!“

“A very special place of warmth and true Jamaican hospitality in NYC. I have hosted several events here (3 cooking classes for students and a special pre-wedding fun "game night" party) and everyone loves generous-hearted Chef Mom, the delicious food she prepares and the wide open welcoming space. What a treat to have this gem in the middle of the city.“

“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.“

“We drove 40 mns to Bon Appétit Caribbean on a Saturday afternoon. I was not disappointed!Great customer service.The food was fresh, super delicious, i ordered a large duri Djondjon with chicken, they gave me enough food to feed 2 people. The macaroni salad was great, duri djondjon was awesome, and the chicken was well seasoned.The next day i went, i got again a large duri Djondjon and fried turkey, Once again, everything was DELICIOUS. If you're in Irvington or close by, this is one spot that I'd definitely recommend! They have REAL SEASONED HAITIAN FOOD“

“Absolutely delighted by the BYOBservice at Negril Village! The flexibility to bring our own bottle made the evening exceptionally personal and relaxed. But let's talk about the real star of the show: the food. Each dish is a fiery celebration of flavor, brilliantly capturing the essence of Jamaican cuisine. The spices sing, the textures dance, and the presentation is pure art. Whether it's the jerk chicken that tantalizes with its smoky depth or the curry goat that embraces you with its rich, complex warmth, Negril Village doesn't just serve food—it delivers an experience. Heat, heart, and heritage blaze in every bite. This place is a must-visit for anyone who cherishes genuine culinary craftsmanship.“

“I live walking distance from Bekka’s. When she first opened we had some jerk chicken and oxtail. It was okay but not great. However, this morning I had the ackee and salt fish with banana and yam, and it’s the best I ever had. I grew up in East Orange and have been to various Caribbean restaurants and this was the best Jamaican breakfast ever!“

“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.“

“This was our second time having dinner there. We had a great dining experience the first time which caused us to celebrate our wedding anniversary the second visit. They sat us in the same booth from our original visit which gave us the same server. She was excellent the first time as well as the second. The food was wonderful and the executive chef came out and introduced himself to us (nice touch). We plan on taking some friends with us the next time we go. Nice job Coco's!“

“I literally just ordered from here; the diri djoun djoun with fried chicken and a side of macaroni au gratin…. They also gave a fresh side green salad. Out of the whole meal my favs were the fried chicken(well down like I like it) the diri djoun djoun was bomb!!! And the salad was soooo fresh and delicious. TO ME AND I SAY TO ME cause everyone’s taste buds are different I didn’t like the macaroni au gratin too much cause one it had ground beef or turkey in it hard to tell being that it was well marinated into the macaroni au gratin and also in my opinion it was a lil dry (once again this is my opinion cause some might find it to be just right, whereas I like that oily and fattening macaroni au gratin taste). But do not not order it guys cause your guys may choose to differ when it comes to the macaroni au gratin. But other than that I enjoyed the food. Been a while since I had haiatian food that actually taste like Haitian food. Oh ye the ambiance is to die for fancy and upscale AF!!!! Definitely got themselves a loyal customer! ♥️“

“This is the newest Jaincan spot I’ve tried since year. And as a true jamaican, it’s a 10/10. Everything prepared here is delicious and fresh. The chef puts life in all the dishes. They serve real jamaican breakfast every morning. They even switch it up for lunch and dinner. All types of authentic foods. You will have many options aside from rice & peace and chicken. My favorite things that’s always a hit is the porridge, soup of the day and fish. Oh and they have the BEST oxtails!! I could eat here every single day. The price no bad either“
“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!!“

“My partner and I decided to try this place based on the reviews and let me tell you it did NOT disappoint! We ordered the large jerk chicken meal, macaroni and cheese, and small chicken soup! This is a hole in the wall spot! Our food was DELICIOUS! I will 100% be ordering again but a LARGE chicken soup. The soup had so much flavor and the chicken just slipped off the bone! The mac also had so much flavor and was so good! The jerk chicken was a bit spicy for me but I don't have a high tolerance to spice. My partner said it was good! He couldn't decide what part was his favorite and said he would go back again! The service was great! Next time you get gas, help yourself to some hearty, home cooked Jamaican food!!“

“We went for Happy Hour and tried 4 appetizers. The beef empanadas were a good size, filled with beef and veggies. Was delicious. Come 4 in an order. Also tried the Yuka cheese sticks and I loved them. Soft and go great with the creamy side sauce. The jerk shrimp was also delicious with the warm bread it brings. Wings were good but a bit spicy for me since currently I cant eat anything spicy. Overall was a great meal and our waitress Brianna was very attentive. Will definitely be back.“

“I would return tomorrow if I could. Dinner with a party of 6 people. The waitress was kind and informative. For apps we have empanadas, gauc with painting chips and croquettes. They were all delicious and fresh. I got the Havana Shrimp for dinner. The shrimp was succulent and plump. I got so full I ended up having to bring half of my dish home. It did not disappoint. It's BYOB. They mix our wine with the house sangria. It was delicious. Rebeca is truly a hidden gem and I would recommend to everyone “

“Las' Lap has a nice vibe to it. The downstairs has about 2 decent size tables and then I believe 2 side tables that seat 1-2 persons along with the bar. It can get kind of cozy in there, but they do have an upstairs seating area. I've visited various Caribbean food spots in the city and although this doesn't make my top restaurants list it's still a decent restaurant. The jerk chicken egg rolls were def my favorite and soO delicious. 5/5! I could go there and eat those alone with a delicious cocktail. The jerk chicken was also not bad, but I do wish that it had a bit more spice and flavor. The rice and beans were okay and felt as if they had been sitting out for a while (room temp) Overall, I think it's a nice place to stop by to have a few cocktails and apps before heading elsewhere. I wouldn't recommend coming with a big group as the place is quite small around the bar area. The staff is also friendly and the music was a vibe.“

“I visited Sarrah's on a trip to NJ with my son and it was such a pleasant, happy experience! I felt like being at an aunt's house in Trinidad. Sarrah sat us down and served us her delicious doubles! She brought us an Apple J to go with it then kept checking on us to make sure we didn't need anything else. Her hospitality was impeccable and I was left with total admiration for the service and quality of Trinidadian food I received. I will definitely return.“

“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!“

“UPDATE:My opinion on how delicious the Rasta pasta is remains unchanged.My partner disputed the extra $15 with Uber, who immediately credited it back. They said they would honor the complaint after we sent a screenshot of the cost on the restaurant website (18.97 vs. $33.79), but stated that they would be contacting the restaurant to adjust their Uber settings because Uber did not add the $15 charge, and it’s the restaurant’s responsibility to adjust it because they do not collect that extra fee for themselves.Hopefully it all gets sorted soon. For $18.79, I’d used this way more often!Overall stars have been adjusted to 4/5.Original review:Delicious! Best Rasta pasta in NJ!We’ve ordered take out twice and it hasn’t disappointed.My partner got a chicken sandwich that he really liked. He said it was crispy, well-flavored, and had a nice piece of chicken. He also commented that he liked the curry chicken less, gave the curry a 3/5.I’ve ordered the Rasta pasta twice and really enjoyed it both times. I’m super particular about my Rasta pasta and this one fits the bill. It’s well seasoned, has a nice amount of yummy sauce. The only thing I’d say is that it’s $17 to add chicken, so for a $33 plate, it should be bigger. I pay that much (or less) for a family size helping of anything at any other restaurant. This dish is not shareable if you want to be satisfied.Picture is of some of my plate, as I forgot to photograph it before I went in!Definitely 4/5 on food. 3/5 overall due to excessive pricing without the amount to back it up.“

“This food is the best tasting Jamaican food in America. I just came from.Jerk’d picking up my dinner on a Friday night. I wanted some that tasted home-cooked. I wanted to find a clean, amazing atmosphere and I wanted to find delicious food. Well that’s what I received. I can’t speak enough about this amazing restaurant. I had the jerk salmon, the sweet fried plantains, the collard greens and the beans and rice, and I had to have a vegan patty on the side. And chocolate chip cookies for dessert I might add. Every morsel of food is absolutely divine. This restaurant will not disappoint. And their customer service is absolutely magnificent. Thank you all for providing amazing food. That’s convenient to my house. You will see me regularly.“
