“My nonprofit organization had a sports trivia night in their private room on their second floor. It was perfect. Equipment for the DJ already there. A projector with a screen to display the scoreboard. Service was excellent. Food was great. Atmosphere was incredible. Drinks were fantastic. Highly recommend holding events in their private room. I will have more events there.“
“I'm not sure why this location has lower ratings than the Clarendon location because the service here is markedly better! The Clarendon location takes forever to prepare meals but this Flatbush location is both efficient and reliable. I can always count on receiving my Cajun chicken rasta pasta for pick-up or Uber Eats delivery in a timely fashion. I usually get the curry goat or curry chicken roti if I'm not getting Rasta pasta. Most meals have a nice level of spice to it, which I think it nice. However, if you're spicy tolerance is super low, it might be worth it to mention it to the cashier or waiter when you place your order. Although I've never dined in at this location, it looks like it could be cozy. I'll have to try in the future.“
“I just went for my early birthday, well me and my friend experience was good. Our server was very nice and accommodating didn’t show no attitude when I asking questions. The food itself was great just a bit too oily for oxtail and the chicken could use a bit of salt but over all was very nice . The atmosphere was definitely a vibe just my personal preference I would definitely would like a bit more table decor. Otherwise 8.5/10 would come again. Wish they had cheesecake again we got 4 things and our total is 112 (including automatic gratuity and tax)“
“Lips Cafe is our go to spot in District 43! Great place for networking, working from home, and the drinks are second to none. We love Lips! Thank you for being such a key stakeholder our community and partner to Assembly Member Brian Cunningham“
“Bring cash to enjoy this amazing spot.Must try the currant roll. Currant rolls are available after 3PM.If you like coconut, you'll LOVE the coconut roll. It is flaky and came warm.If you like the texture of mochi, and you like almond extract, try the cassava pone.There if usually a line out the door so check before walking in.Line moves quickly and service is very kind.“
“The food was delicious and generous. We came in on a Tuesday afternoon, so it was very mellow and low-key. Our server Stephanie was very friendly and attentive. The music was very catchy and the overall atmosphere was very nice. Will definitely visit again“
“Catered large Trays Mini Cassava balls Salt Fish Cakes with the sauces Tamarind and Mango . Delicious delicious delicious . All our guests could not stop talking about these appetizers. OMG JERK CHICKEN TO DIE FOR - Spicy and tender N JUICY leaves you wanting more. Again all our guests chattering about how delicious the jerk chicken was. MAC N CHEESE for the Vegetarians flavorful cheesy n delicious . My new go to for friends and family gatherings.“
“I had tried going to this location before and was told I needed reservations. I went today, and they had a seat. They took me to the back, through the kitchen, down these metal stairs to an outdoor seating. The outdoor tent was nice. Service was quick. The fried pork with Plantain cups and lobster & crab Rangoon as appetizer and shrimp rasta pasta as entrée was delicious.“
“The food was phenomenally bonkers!, it had the home style cooking and flavor bursts you would want from a delicious brunch. The jerk chicken was flavor filled with all types of delicious spices, char grilled, and succulent with every bite. The team and wonderful service from “Demmoy” and a few others I was enjoying my food too much I forgot to get everyone’s name, provided such a welcoming experience and energy, fantastic vibes. I can’t say enough kind words about this place. I plan to return often for the jerk chicken and waffles. The waffle had crispy crust & savory tastes, the maple syrup was delivered heated, such a fantastic touch!. My partner had the eggs biscuits and grits, holy smokes that had a fantastic flavor as well, i ate half of her food (after she was done), ?Highly recommend. ??“
“Great experience, the lady at the counter gave us samples of the pineapple ginger juice which was so good we ended up getting, she also recommended we get the beef patties w the coco bread and wow she was not playin no games. 10/10 hit every spot, will for sure be back.“
“Last night I tried food from Sally's for the first time and it was pretty good. We got take out and the service was really nice.I had the curry chicken which I was hoping to be cooked in a more Caribbean way, but it was still nice, spicy and the chicken portion was very decent which I was pleasantly surprised by. I had a taste of my friend's jerk fish and it was so good, sweet and spicy, but I wouldn't call it jerk. She also let me try the crab Rangoon dumplings and they were my favorite! I wish I had them hot and with the sauce provided, but they were still great.I got the matcha rum cake and there wasn't a hint of rum. I was really disappointed by this, and the size was also pretty shocking and small. At least if there was any taste of rum I would've said ok, the price is for the rum and not the size. But I felt cheated. The cake which was like a mini bundt cake was sweet and good just not for $12.The Caribbean and Asian flare wasn't really pulled off very well for me. It would've been nice if the cultures were better represented and fused in the food, but for me the food across the board leans more Asian inspired like maybe Thai. The food was fine just not what it claimed to be.“
“Amazing! They were out of the jerk chicken empanadas when I ordered online late in the day, so the super nice owner gave me two salmon ones after calling to inform me and asking about substitutes. I got the sweet chili hot wings and they were so good! Made to order and super fresh and flavorful. The mac and cheese was also great.“
“We came to LaMode to celebrate my brother’s 50th birthday. Shanice was our server and she did amazing considering she was taking care of a party of 30. Very friendly despite some of us being unreasonable. Would come back if she’s my server.“
“I win here October 15 for my birthday. My granddaughters were there madman son, was doing even Magnússon in a wheelchair. He offered him something to drink, even though he couldn’t drink it, but it was nice that they thought about him they took our pictures for us. it was very fast with bringing out the food and I enjoyed. Definitely will come back“
“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!“
“Highly Recommended!! Especially for large parties! Went with a group of 20. We had the back room all to ourselves!! Which included our own bathroom and backyard space! It felt like a private party as we were able to get up and mingle with one another without bothering other diners. The food was excellent and the service was even better !!! Thank you for everything ISHMEL !!!“
“Great Culinary experience my friends and I stopped by randomly because we were in the area. To be honest we were pleasantly surprised the drinks were tasty and sturdy shoutout to Owen the bartender. The food came out in great time and was tasty. I would recommend the honey garlic wings, Doubles and curry snapper. But what made our visit Great was that the Chef / owner Calvin came out and had a conversation with us and made us feel at home.10 out of 10“
“Decided to go here to get a 10" black cake to celebrate a company party. The customer service was great, and the cake was delicious and finished earlier than i expected! It was moist and fresh with jolts of rum. Would order again from here in the future!“
“All the foods are very delicious. They can brush up on the curry chicken and shrimp because I feel like the amount u get with the dinner should be a little more. Other than that everything else is top notch. Best place to get Caribbean food in Brooklyn!“
“I haven’t had better soul food in all of NYC. It took me a while of living nearby before going in to try it out, because the front isn’t overly flashy. But the owner pulled me over to say hi one time, and the rest is history. You can tell that the staff is like family; not in the toxic way, but in a way where everyone who comes in leaves feeling like a neighbor. I love their rotation of local black/women art, not to mention their schedule for incredible live music. This restaurant has played a huge role in making me feel at home in Brooklyn over the last 5 years, and I know I’m one of many people who feel the same. You can’t go wrong on their menu, so if a great restaurant atmosphere isn’t for you, at least try the food. You won’t regret it.“
“First coming here date night with my boy friend and actually I am having dinner right now everything is so good ! I ordered the salt fish fritters oh my god !!!! Small black own business I really really enjoyed the vibe the food the drinks - drank one drink spicy mango margarita and I’m lit !!! Please come support them you won’t disappoint they takeThere time making food but it’s worth it !!“
“I live across from this restaurant, I saw it since they opened it, I never tried it because I thought it was just seafood but they don't, have BBQ wings, french fries and a delicious macaroni and cheese. ? I recommend it, they cook delicious, they have a new client, my girls and me loved everything and I plan to try other dishes they have that look very delicious, I wanted to try the tail, but it is spicy,I don't really like spicy things, just a few things, if they made a few for people who don't like spicy things I would definitely be the first to buy, I hope you consider it, thank you ?“
“My mouth is watering right now, thinking about the food I ate for the first time yesterday from this establishment. Fresh, tasty, spicy, yummy, delicious food. I can go on about how good this food was. I had the fish sandwich, my husband had the pork and chicken, and I also had the passion juice and soup. Everything tastes so good. I can't wait to go back. The staff was friendly, the place was clean, and the food was freshly prepared when ordered. 5star“
“I had the best stew peas I have ever had in my life! I have to go back and get my mom some.I had the pepper shrimp, it was extremely hot and flavorful. I had to immediately pull out my asthma pump. My chest was already tight, but as soon as I tasted the shrimp my chest closed up. I thought I was going to have to call the ambulance. It was scary!!!I will not put this on the restaurant. I have been eating seafood for 50 years and think I have recently developed a seafood allergy.“
“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.

“Tii hi is place is amazing …. Southern food delight ../. So lively and all the employees are happy and total LIVE upbeat vibe ….. I sat at the bar and sooo good. Dinner was fried chicken mashed potato’s Mac and cheese and I couldn’t finish it“
“Went for a birthday celebration. I ordered the stew peas(vegetarian), my co-diners ordered fish, oxtail and chicken and everyone was satisfied. Bill for 6 came up to 450$. Portions can be a bit on the small side if you're a big eater. Drinks from the bar were good. Overall 4 star solid place.“
“I stumbled across this restaurant when I attended a conference across the street at Medgar Evers College. The food was delicious. Very affordable too. Excellent service. Very friendly staff. A very relaxing environment. I will definitely visit again.“
“Chef Shorne is a genius with this, the fresh ingredients and the different flavors are worth coming to Brooklyn for! Oxtail grilled cheese, top knotch, mac n cheese amazing , lavender chicken is so moist it's a crime. Full experience is sitting at the counter when the chef is in the building!“
“Absolutely amazing place ! We meant to quickly a stop there for one cocktail but the atmosphere, the staff (K!) and the quality of the drinks were so amazing that we ended up expending hours and hours in there!! The drinks are FANTASTIC, and the the vibe going on with the regulars is just so warm and welcoming … absolutely loved this place ! We were very glad we cancelled all our plans to just enjoy being in this place … absolutely AMAZING!!“
“My go-to spot for a jerk chicken patty! Authentic flavor but it is not spicy. It costs around $3 but it is packed with flavor and meat so you get your money's worth. It is better to go earlier because they do sell out of some of the patties like the jerk chicken and veggie. I went around 11:50am on a Monday and there was no line. This place typically has a line so if you are looking for a good time to go, I suggest Monday during the early afternoon. I will definitely be back because I am always curious about the food. They have roti and other traditional Caribbean dishes like oxtails and stew chicken.Vegetarian options: Veggie Patties“
“It’s always the authentic eateries that strike a chord with me! Absolutely INCREDIBLE goat curry with buss up shut (roti) the goat was so tender and falling off the bone, the curry sauce was absolute perfection and great for dipping the roti in. The pumpkin and potato came separately to the curry which I think is genius to not mix up the flavours. The roti was cooked and torn up to perfection. Really authentic and you could tell the chef has made this for years and perfected the recipe.I will be thinking about this dish for days to come.lady who served me was an absolute angel as well, had a million things to do at once and all by herself but was attentive with great customer service skills, place was clean, good atmosphere and vibe with music playing and a bar in the middle with decent seating options for diners. 10/10 will be back“
“Pleasantly surprised at the atmosphere in this location, definitely spacious as it was a random stop for us to check out.We were seated right away and just took a lil time to order as my sister was debating what she wanted. Once it started getting more packed, service did become a bit slower as we were ready to order.I loved my meal and drink, it does have a kick to it. The tempura Fish cakes reminds of bacalaitos, just a bit different with tempura. Would def try the other menu items here.“
“I’ve been looking for a good Caribbean food spot near NYC, and I think this may be my new go-to spot. Best food I’ve had in a while, jerk chicken was perfectly cooked and seasoned. Everything I ordered was amazing. I would eat here everyday if I could! Lol. 10/10 would recommend.“
“I was craving some oxtails and ran into this place on google and I tried it out the two ladies were friendly and they pack the container very well .I had gotten oxtail with rice and peas and Mac and cheese.Oxtail was very tasty but seasonedRice and peas was very good as wellMac and cheese was delicious and perfect texture for me .I had also gotten a cheesecake and banana pudding.Cheese cake was deliciousNot really a fan of Banana pudding but this one was good too.“
“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.“
“10, 10, 10s across the board! Called to make a reservation, no one answered. I left a voicemail and received a call back within the hour. Booked the reservation with ease. Nice ambiance. Greeted warmly upon entrance. Had small talk with the owner. And now the food.... Hands down worth all the coins it snatched out my purse that night. I sampled everyone's meal and was not disappointed. Def would return.“
“I love this restaurant, food is great atmosphere is awesome, staff are very welcoming! This was my third visit and was served by Charlene the only server I’ve experienced thus far but she is everything!!!!! Every time she over exceeds my expectations!“
“If you're lucky, and ask for a 'buss up and shut' and they have it, brace yourself. Get it with chicken, goat, or whatever makes you happiest. You're about to have addiction issues you never even realized were possible.The paratha is flaky, coconut-y and fried to perfection. You'll wish there was more curry because the curry is so good. And then, you'll wish you had more paratha because the paratha is so good. And the cycle continues.Otherwise, if you're basic af like me and salty fish for breakfast isn't calling out to you, that's okay. We all can't be perfect. The Doubles are insane.Finally, the roti. the portions are generous. You'll never want to step foot in a Chipotle again. Every bite is gd incredible. You won't leave hungry. Light, fluffy chunks of curried mashed potatoes, curry of your choice, wrapped in a food blanket meant for the gods“
“It's convenient and affordable with a wide range of baked goods and meals. The roti is so good. I've had the oxtail roti. - it was filling. Delicious food, freshly made and reasonably priced, with helpful, friendly staff. Will definitely be returning!“
“Went to wadadli jerk with my mum and friends , the food was top notch and the owner was very friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be back and I would highly recommend this restaurant ?.. Much blessings from Natasha, Sandra and Curtis..“
“I'm always having a spot saved on my Google and my cousin and I decided to try this place. It was a great choice. We came in and it was quiet so we were able to get seating right away.I ordered the Holy Grail but I found it to be a little sweet for me so I went with the French Kiss which was really good. My cousin and I picked the shrimp dumplings and lemon pepper wings as appetizers. The shrimp dumplings are AMAZING!!!! OMG! I ordered the snapper which was really amazing as well.Service was good. Place was nice and clean. Will definitely return“
“I was just in the restaurant and the server was very helpful helping me make up my mind I ordered the king fish it was very delicious she was professional and very present I now have a new favorite restaurant I highly recommend this establishment and support our small minority owned “
“The food was very vibrant & refreshing, the service was fast and welcoming for the amount parties they had. Our server recommended the appetizers and glad we listened. The drinks were drinking. *WARNING* please eat before you drink the pomegranate margarita. You will feel it so enjoy the ambiance & the food it's really amazing and we will return.“
“I have the jerk salmon and the oxtail patty and both were delicious. Myfavorite out of the two was the jerk salmon.The service was phenomenal. I was treated very well and I left feeling like I wish I would have spent more money. I never have that feeling.I had the patties once I got home. Honestly, I would go back again. This time I would warm it up because I like my food hot. But the flavor is on point.“
“Anas has great customer service the food was prepared quickly. He even gave me a small sample off a few items on the menu to help make a decision on what I wanted. That alone satisfied me as a customer and would recommend him if your in the area. Food gets a 8/10“
“Love this place i come here almost everyday. They always have different creative options! My favorite is the rachet chicken & the turkey neck! Everything here is fresh and cooked to perfection. You can tell the chef cooks the food with love. I've never been to Jamaica but the food here Jamaica me crazy mon!“
“I usually get jerk chicken there and patties. These are the ones I like to buy there. The other food are good too but, I have my preferences. Just jerk chicken,not the meal . Long time ago, I used to buy fish there but,it became too hot/ spicy for me to digest.“
“Colorful spot with a festive back room run by chef owner Osei Blackett. He's bringing his hometown flavors of Trinidad and Tobago to Ariapita.The $25 all you can eat every Friday is a BBQ deal that's hard to beat.. I believe there is a 2 hour time limit.He was recently featured in Food and Wine @foodandwineHe also runs everything oxtails at Smoagutsburg in Williamsburg and Prospect Park and those oxtails empanadas are ?Chicken was perfect, lamb was tender, pig tail was a first for me and tasted good. The shrimp were huge. Some days they have fish as well I was told.Scalloped potatoes and mac salad were one of the best I've had and took some home!Go hungry, grab a platter and experience BBQ Trinidadian styl“
