About Kassim's

Kassim's is a well-known Caribbean and Indian restaurant on Jamaica Avenue. The menu offers a wide range of meats, vegetables, legumes, beverages, desserts, soups, and stews. The polite and efficient staff deliver neatly prepared orders, ensuring freshness. Customers often praise the food for tasting like “home,” with dishes such as stew chicken and jerk chicken being popular choices. The stew chicken is seasoned well and falls off the bone, while the fried rice and cookup rice complement the main dishes perfectly. The restaurant also offers complimentary steam cabbage that is crispy. Many find the prices very affordable, with some meals costing only $8 or $10, and even free plantains with certain orders. The owner provides great service, and the place is considered a hidden gem for delicious, heartfelt Caribbean and Indian food. The restaurant caters to vegetarians and those with dietary restrictions but has limited space, mainly focused on takeout. Parking can be a challenge due to high customer volume. Wheelchair accessibility is limited because of the tight entrance and minimal floor space. Overall, Kassim's is a favorite for flavorful, affordable meals that feel like home.

I had dhal, rice and beef curry. Very delicious 😋

Great food.

I’m big on first impressions, and from the moment I walked in, I was greeted with such a warm welcome! I ordered “house food” rice, dhal, and pochownie—and it truly tasted like home. Everything was so flavorful and comforting. The salara was warm and gooey, just how I like it! Every dish was fresh, and the portions were generous. I’ll definitely be back!
