“Visited from Orlando,Florida and was in the mood for some Guyanese homemade food for brunch. We ate here and they had a wide variety of food options from doubles, cook up, bake and salt fish and various curries paired with The best tasting roti I have had in a long time. We ended it all off with some very tasty Pastries that are homemade in store. The owner Serita is very hospitable and made sure we had everything and that we were well taken care of! If you are ever in the Queens/Long Island area I highly encourage you to stop in for a hearty meal“

“Had to pleasure to professionally help one his sisters. She told me of her brothers restaurant. After our meeting , I went straight there. A real old school simple place…her brother was a gentlemen and so friendly , and the counter man Joe. I had jerk chicken, rice and peas, plantains. Simply amazing. ?“

“The food was delicious but the staff is respectful and funny!! Love the jerk chicken …“

“My first visit. I ordered jerk chicken with white rice, curry goat rice and peas, and stew chicken white rice. All size medium. The servings were a great size (not the skimpy stuff you get elsewhere); enough for a great breakfast leftover. My server was Moya. She was super nice and let us sample the meat and sauces before ordering.“

“I went there on several sessions after work. The waitress who served us was super nice and friendly. The drinks were so good. She had me try the pineapple ginger drink! Yummy. My date enjoyed the food and drinks. Will definitely return. Older respectable crowd. Nice ambiance. The music wasn’t too loud either. You can dance or just chill. Btw there’s parking on the streets nearby.“

“awesome place to eat very clean“

“Food was delicious!! Tati Jo (owner) was there and was a sweetheart. You can taste the love in their food!! Would gladly come back

Parking: Parked on side street next to restaurant. Could have also parked on main road in front as well.“

“Outstanding. Service and delicious food.“

“This was my first time trying Caribbean food and it was incredible! I had the jerk chicken lunch special with Pineapple and ginger drink and the flavor was amazing. The man working at the store was extremely helpful and nice! He threw in a couple of pieces of oxtail for me to try on the house as well and that was super tender and flavorful! Will definitely be a returning customer!“

“Nice rooftop setting with a good Caribbean vibe. The staff was attentive and the food prepared in a timely manner. The portions were really generous...no complaints at all! I did find the seasoning/flavors to be good, but not awesome. And do check out the variety of mixed drinks available! All in all a great group visit, and I would definitely visit again!“

“Nice place to unwind and enjoy great service from the awesome bartender's Shorn and Linval. Those drinks are amazing very punching. (Rum Punch)“

“I took a bite of my jerk chicken and I can feel the love in the food! wow it’s absolutely delicious. I had the jerk chicken, rice and peas, and plantains. I will be absolutely coming here again. I’m putting this place into my permanent rotation!“

“I’ve been ordering from this restaurant for years. Always delicious! I wish the prices weren’t so high, but inflation/costs are high, and they give you the amount of food worth the price you’re paying. The curries are so delicious and the duck curry is my favorite! I visit this restaurant weekly and I’ve never had a bad interaction with anyone here. The staff is very friendly.“

“Bought a tray of mithai to send away to my sister-in-law in Florida because it’s that good, but when I got home and open the tray it was soggy. I guess the extreme heat during summer and how the mithai was stored at Fazee’s ruined the texture of it. The owner apologized and offered to replace the mithai, and with a pick up time that was convenient for me. Great customer service. Thank you.“

“They need to make more breakfast, you have to rush there to get it before it runs out, by 9:30am. At least make enough for the people until 11:00, everyone clearly loves their breakfast but it’s never enough. I overheard women on line complaining about this, as well as my mom.“

“This cafe serves delicious food. Stop by for lunch or dinner, I guarantee you will NOT regret it.“

“Nolan's stands out as an exceptional establishment, offering a remarkable representation of Caribbean cuisine. As someone who was born and raised in Jamaica, I can confidently say that their food truly captures the essence of our culinary traditions. The ambiance is simply delightful, creating a wonderful dining experience. My order was prepared fresh on the spot, which is a testament to their commitment to quality, ensuring that every dish is served at its best without any reheating. Additionally, their homemade drinks, particularly the Raspberry, are absolutely refreshing and delightful.“

“We always order using delivery apps though wanted to come in for the full experience. SO GLAD WE DID. First off, this has to be one of the cleanest restaurants I have ever been in. That made me feel really happy. Now to the food! Came for the Taco Tuesday Special and so happy we did. We came very late in the evening so we missed the jerk chicken tacos though I was not disappointed in the jerk beef tacos. Such a great deal and it was delicious. These were the full size tacos, not the minis. Run don’t walk as I’m sure this deal wont last. We also ordered the fried fish and grits , we paid for extra for more fish and so goad we did. I didn’t expect a carribean place to be my new go to fish spot but here we are! We ordered the collard greens which were a little different than the southern style I’m accustomed to though had a spice to kick it up.

Friendly staff and very welcoming. They offered us samples of their new fresh made sea moss which was delicious and we grabbed more to take home.

Highly recommend visiting here for your next meal! Great price to value ratio on serving sizes and there are always great deals on delivery apps.“

“The food was good. The drinks were tasty. The vibe was nice and cozy. It was tight but once those drink hit and the music banging, you don’t really care. However I deducted a star because when we got home, we saw that they put a “credit card” fee (like who does that? Where was the warning? Not sure that’s legal) and an automatic 22% gratuity for a table of two. Now I’m not quite sure I would return. Especially not with a card (which I use for travel points and not ordering as much as I did.)“

“Wow! Came here for my daughter 40th birthday dinner I called ahead of time told then that I had a large party, we got to the restaurant and were seated right away and the menu said happy birthday Tisha on the menu which was so so great and let me tell you everything we tried delicious the drinks was great waiters were wonderful. I will definitely definitely go back. I’d recommend this place“

“If you are looking for some AUTHENTIC flavorful Jamaican food. This is the SPOT! I ordered some oxtails, jerk chicken, cabbage, plantains with rice and peas. I was not disappointed. The oxtail was flavorful and falling off the bone. I also loved the jerk sauce they had on the chicken. Most importantly, the portion is hefty! The food reminded me of home. I will DEFINITELY return!“

“The DJ plays music of every time period.“

“Nice place to party. Cozy.“

“I live in Florida, but I visit NY several times per year and I have made it my special treat to myself to visit this particular Golden Crust and have an oxtail dinner. If time allows, I will also have a day of red peas soup. These two dishes are absolutely delicious ?. I haven’t tried anything else so unable to comment on other dishes.“

“A small, not too clean looking inside, hole in the wall with DELICIOUS food. It didn't matter that a Dominican lady that spoke no English was serving my favorite Jamaican foods. It DID matter that the jerk chicken was nothing more than flavorful baked chicken with a jerk sauce sprayed from a bottle. And if not for another customer giving me the $7 to pay for my $18 tray, I would have wasted my time, because the card reader was having communication issues. Things happen. I'd make a return trip in a clutch. The food was good.“

“The food was great,tasty and yummy. I don't really have any negative feedback other than they are to continue working and providing great food , entertainment and just a place to relax.My only reason for giving it 4 was due to the fact I have not had a chance to try all their food. Keep up the great 👍 work.“

“I would Most definitely go again“

“I love this place!! Always get the salmon cabbage rice and peas as that’s my favorite but my son gets curry chicken and he loves it! The food is always fresh very tasty and the plantains are always soft some a lil crispy on the edges, sooo good!! They even have red beans soup with turkey on certain days!! Love it here. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but 2 stars review is just crazy! Go check it out for yourself!!!“

“Certainly a must place to be. Great customer service. Comfortable vibe“
