“Good authentic Jamaican food.“

“Absolutely one of the best jerk chicken lunch I’ve ever had in years. My mother ate their Oxtail stew dish and it was delicious too. Full flavoured food with excellent quality & portion. Friendly helpful staff are also welcoming. I bought the fried whiting fish fillets and some fried chicken wings to take home. Will definitely be back again to eat all the other dishes! Yummy ? proper jerk chicken with rice & beans that were moist not dry like other places we’ve tried in Manhattan.

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy to access street level entrance that will accommodate wheelchairs and rollators. No steps inside the restaurant.“

“Great service, price and food. And the music is awesome too.“

“Food is excellent. I wish it was a little bigger. Lunch time the line is long they need more room. In the back the cook need more room as well. Excellent seafood soup ,whole fish dinner must try. All the soups are great. Good food . Eat there 2 or 3 times a week.“

“Been coming to Melting Pot for years. The food is always solid and consistent. I haven’t tried anything from here that I don’t like. Jerk chicken and oxtail is always fresh and flavorful. They make a fresh pineapple ginger juice that’s amazing. Everyone I’ve brought here always enjoy the food.“

“Great jerk chicken! Nice wood-fire BBQ flavor and jerk sauce on the side. Came with rice & beans and some plantains and a side salad, too.“

“I’ve been here twice and gotten the oxtails with, plantains and rice and beans. The flavor is out of this world and the oxtail is incredibly tender. They were also generous with their portion sizes. I really enjoyed the meal so much! They offer a lunch special, medium and large size for dishes.“

“A nice little spot in Harlem for delicious Jamaican style patties. They taste even better between 2 pillow soft slices of Cocoa bread. Prices are fair and the ladies that work here are pleasant. Go have yourself a quick and delicious lunch and/or snack without breaking the bank!!!!!“

“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.“

“The service is great pleasant people food good n service nice n hot Thanks“

“My son Found this spot while we were hungry for some Dumplings ; Awesome!! They are great!! So we went again to thr restaurant , ordered Curry goat and more dumplings!! Wonderful!! Well worth the walk !! Will be back for more!!! Bless up!!????????????????“

“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.“

“Thé order to get is my usual a pound of jerk chicken extra sauce pause pound of ox tails with a large order of curry shrimp extra gravy on the rice and u can’t forget the sorrel and ginger juice ginger beer and a champagne kola on the side“

“Great service, price and food. And the music is awesome too.“

“The food looks tasty, everytime I order from them the customer service is excellent. People are friendly. My only critique is that the size of the protein is too small. The chicken pieces are so tiny, as a hungry growing boy, I need more protein. One piece of chicken is done in 1 bite.Other than that, I recommend.“

“I Ordered the Large Oxtails and J*** BBQ Chicken . Both dishes were good and definitely worth the detour we took to get there. Oxails wasn't tough, it was almostmeltingin my mouth. The server was very nice and was ok with answering my questions. So service 5, taste food 5 but the decor of the store is definitely a 2. Don't get me wrong there is nothing wrong. it's a good store and I would definitely eat here a million more times.“

“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’ve had Jamaican food before, but NOTHING is as delicious as their food! Curry chicken fell off the bone, perfect amount of curry. My husband was very pleased with the food too! This place is amazing!“

“food was amazing,most people are very impatient and don't want to wait to get their good food and end up leaving but if you just wait your turn and give the food to try and not judging by appearance you will have the best food ever . don't judge a book by its cover ?“

“This is some pretty good Jamaican food located in the middle of Manhattan. I highly recommend their patties, and the jerk chicken burrito and the chicken roti burrito were both phenomenal. The staff is always awesome and friendly. Love these guys so much. The pricing is pretty good for what you get.

For adult beverages they have fantastic alcoholic cold drinks like a coconut and rum punch. And it definitely has a punch.

I'm the customer with Black Lives Matter mask, so you all know who I am.

My wife loves them too.“

“This place man I used to hit here every morning my partner and I got breakfast, unfortunately the last cook left and this new guy gave me parboiled rice, I hate that stuff, overall the food is great get rid of that rice and it's a definite “

“Tropical Delight serves authentic, absolutely finger licking Jamaican food. Kay is very nice and professional. The delivery drivers are always pleasant and professional as well. My family order from their catering menu all the time for our family get-togethers. My favorite is the curry goat, oxtail, curry chicken, red snapper- hahaha almost everything! My husband loves their fried chicken. Their food is consistent, always delicious, well seasoned, not too salty, and the managers and staff are nice people. There is no Jamaican restaurant within close proximity to where I live, so I’m happy they deliver in my area.“

“I absolutely LOVE the food. I got a plate with oxtails, rice & peas, plantains and he makes sure your plate is full. Everything tasted like it was seasoned perfectly, the gravy was surprisingly light and delicious. I’m 1000% going back.
I sincerely doubt the bad reviews are from him, the plates aren’t even the same. I met his Mom too and she was really sweet! Made the experience even better ?

FYI: I took the picture below after a couple bites“

“Food was Goooood, so far we've tried a few Caribbean restaurants in the area...this by far the best.., so glad you had 2 veggie choices which we had 1 with each meal..will return. Hopefully the owner will offer Menus that has FOOD ITEMS AND prices on it, being able to see WHAT YOU ARE PAYING FOR IS IMPORTANT. YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE TO ASK about this“

“AMAZING EATS, GREAT & FRIENDLY SERVICE, AND NICE SIZE PORTIONS!“

“First time . Got the jerk Rasta pasta and lawd the wait almost killed me but the FOOD was worth it?? can’t wait to go back and get more stuff off there menu a TRUE Caribbean truck BY FAR the best soul food I’ve had in the Bronx YET . DEFINITELY recommend ????“

“I like that they offer a $10 lunch special, including veg and plantain with a soda...but it's only chicken. But seriously...you not gonna oder just that! You gotta get a patty or festival or something else that catches your eye. I had the curry chicken (a little spice but good) and a beef patty, bc they were out of chicken. I ate almost everything...and I don't feel bad about it! Will visit again, but try to avoid the out of school kids.“

“This is a small place but let me tell you the curry goat with rice and peas and cabbage With extra curry goat sauce YUMMYYYY.?. Also the J*** chicken with rice cabbage and curry goat sauce. OMG..I'VE been coming to this place for about a year and the food is always on point. 5 stars for me!“

“I ordered this on Uber eats , I ordered a large jerk chicken and it was really big. It came with rice and peas and plantains or cabbage. I got a ting and that was really good. The beef patty was also really fresh. I would definitely order again oh and the Mac and cheese is bomb . Real bodmon vibes“

“Delicious TENDER oxtails.“

“The line is worth the wait, the jerk chicken is super juicy and delicious. The rasta pasta is a fail through. Very overcooked and unpleasant. The lack of mac and cheese is disappointing because that would be a perfect side. Also I asked for cabbage but they never put it in the plate.“
