“5 Stars-Tha Café

Tha Café is a whole vibe. The moment you walk in, it just feels good—comfortable, stylish, and full of positive energy. Whether you’re coming to chill, eat, or catch a vibe, this place sets the tone right every time. It’s got that real West Indian flavor, both in the food and the atmosphere.

The owner is cool and welcoming, makes you feel like you're part of the fam. The bartenders are fast, friendly, and on point—no long waits, no bad attitudes, just good people doing what they do best.

And the food? Fire🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. Seasoned to perfection, fresh, and full of flavor. You can tell it’s made with love. This ain’t no basic menu—every bite delivers. It’s that kind of food you think about the next day.

Tuesdays between 4 PM and 2 AM—that’s when the spot really comes alive. Good music, good people, good energy. And weekends? Always lit. If you know, you know.

Tha Café is definitely a go-to. Comfortable, attractive, welcoming… everything a great restaurant/lounge should be. If you’re in the area and haven’t pulled up yet, you’re missing out.

“If you're in queens and want just an explosion of deliciousness in your own home? Then this is the place to pick it up from. It's my go-to spot in Jamaica for cheat days. They have the best oxtails and vegetable rice around. The rice is seriously addictive. They also have a slamming hot sauce. You have to ask for the real hot hot sauce tho. Because they used to give me another hot sauce before a regular told me of this one. If you like perfectly spiced, fall off the bone, absolutely delicious oxtails. If you also like them with magic rice that you can eat buckets of till you explode in delicious rice goodness, then this is the place to get it from. They do not have any seating. This is a takeout-only spot. They also load up the containers. No skimping here. The staff is always nice as well. Keep up the good work guys.“

“There used to be a restaurant in this exact spot called “HOT POT” . Hot Pot was literally by the far the most disgusting Jamaican food I’ve ever had in my life and I mean everything was nasty no matter what you tried so I’m not too sure if this store now is under the same management or it’s a completely different owner but the food is so much better than Hot Pot is and I’ve had different food from this place and everything has been good CONSISTENTLY. It’s fairly new and I hope that the quality never changes but as of right now ? I would definitely recommend this place to anybody . The Chef at Irie be doing their thing and it’s underrated right now maybe because of the bad experience from the previous Jamaican spot that used to be in the same exact spot but I promise you guys that it’s not the same quality as Hot Pot was and you won’t be disappointed ? and the customer service was good no attitudes like the typical Jamaican spots“

“Going inside to wait on line for your food is insufferable, BUT this location is good for Uber eats/delivery. Always quick. They never skimp. Food is consistent.

Make sure you know how to use your steering wheel, if you're going to drive and park here.“

“OMG!!! Everyone needs to dive into the flavor of Cookerz Blend, one of Queens hidden gem on 217-84 Hempstead Ave. From the moment you walk in, you're not just a guest, you are family!!! The warm welcome from both staff and fellow diners sets the stage for an unforgettable experience. I was like, "why is everyone clapping?" Prepare your taste buds for a rollercoaster ride of deliciousness! One visit was all it took for me to fall head over heels for their mouth watering menu. Whether you're craving oxtails, irresistible jerk chicken, or hmmmmm... theeeee honey-glazed salmon that's seasoned to perfection, Cookerz Blend delivers every time! Ha, there's more, you should taste their rasta pasta, it's so divine... heavenly! Oh yes, the fried chicken wings that practically melt off the bone with each bite. oh, oh, oh, and let's not forget about the pepper steak and the curried goat - juicy, tender, and bursting with flavor. Even if you fancy yourself a kitchen whiz like myself, Cookers Blend culinary magic will keep you coming back for more. They kept pulling me back in, like what the hell is their secret ingredient? With each visit, I'm not just dining out, I'm embarking on a flavor filled journey that's keeping me hooked. Don't take my word for it, experience it for yourself, trust, you'll thank me later. Prepare to become a lifetime devotee. Thanks to ALL the staff, you got a lifetime customer!“

“A whole vibe!!! From the moment you walk in, you are captivated. The decor, the music and the beautiful staff begin the wonderful experience that's about to occur. The food is exquisite in presentation and taste.i have visited the location in Forest Hills also but the experience in RVC is incomparable. (My daughter works near Forest Hills and frequented the other location but immediately stated she likex RVC just entering the restaurant) Iliana, Chastity, Julie and others, thank you for a great evening. Be back soon and every time I visit NY“

“We had a great experience at this spot. The food was authentic Trinidadian and Caribbean comfort at its best. From morning till night, they’re serving up delicious, flavorful dishes that really hit the spot. We tried a mix of classic eats, and everything was packed with taste – you can tell it's made with care. The place itself is small and simple, but that just adds to the charm. It’s no-frills but totally satisfying.“

“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“
