50 Best Caribbean Restaurants near Lynbrook

“We catered from Trini Bites for a brunch with friends to celebrate our recent wedding. Working with Renee was an absolute pleasure. From start to finish, she was attentive and responsive. We knew we wanted to cater Trini food as my husband is Trini and I felt the stakes were high to make sure everything went well! And Renee delivered on every front.

The food was an absolute smash hit -- no tray was left untouched or unpolished, and we even sent folks home with to-go containers as they loved the food so much. Particular favorites were the stew chicken, the buss up shot, the mini doubles, and the curry chana and potatoes. Renee made sure that our dietary preferences were met, which was no small feat as we had vegetarians, vegans, kosher-observant (no shellfish), and halal-observant (no pork or pork byproducts) in attendance!

If you've ever been curious Trini food or simply want to serve something different for your party or gathering, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend working with Renee and Trini Bites at all.“

“Ryry's catered a conference lunch for us for about 100 people and it was delicious food and a very professional experience. They were super responsive over phone and email, made helpful suggestions about planning the menu, answered questions about allergens, and overall were so kind each time we spoke. People could not stop saying how good the food was--and they were right! My only regret is that since I was running the conference I didn't get to eat as much of the food as I would have liked! We will definitely use Ryry's again for future events.“

“I picked up food here for the first time and Auntie was so incredibly welcoming. She was happy to let me sample a handful of the dishes they were serving, all of which were delicious.

The oxtail here is just phenomenal. The depth of flavor of the gravy was such a standout. My rice and peas were covered in it and I wish I had more!

The jerk chicken was incredibly tender and the sweet and spicy sauces were a great compliment.

The fresh pine ginger drink is a must have and the homemade coco bread was pillowy soft.

The chef is an absolute pro here when it comes to salinity. The seasoning was spot on for every entree without any lingering saltiness.“

“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“

The menu offers a wide variety of cuisines all under one roof, making it easy to satisfy different tastes in one order. The food was fresh, flavorful, and prepared quickly. I always order the salads because they are consistently fresh, generously portioned, and packed with flavor. The convenience, variety, and overall quality make Wonder a solid choice for takeout or a casual meal. I'd definitely order from there again.“

The dish tasted homemade but elevated, the kind of food that makes you feel both satisfied and cared for. On top of that, the customer service was outstanding: friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Tati Jo’s is the kind of place where the food and the people make you want to come back again and again.“

My husband ordered the 6$ bag from the too good to go app and he got 2 plates of fried chicken with rice and chicken curry. The curry and rice was ok. I liked the fried chicken. But 2 plates for 6$! What a steal! We will be definitely going here again.“

“I was provided with excellent customer service! There was a very nice gentleman that made addressed all my concerns and needs regarding my food! I explained how whenever I ask for extra gravy at other locations, they get upset, and he completely understood and gave me extra gravy with no attitude! I highly recommend this location for the food and great customer service!! The food is soo good!! The Mac and cheese with chicken was delicious and the oxtail with rice and peas was also very good and the loaded fries were good as well!!“

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!“

“Absolutely delicious. Had the oxtail plate and added Mac n cheese. Will definitely be back. Great seasoning I forgot to add the jerk sauce.“

“Decided to stop by since I was craving Jamaican food tonight. The portions are huge here! Definitely a bang for your buck. Got the stewed chicken and the jerk chicken for the rice platters. I love Mac and cheese so I definitely had to try it with some jerk chicken on top. Everything was great and the customer service was as well. I’ll definitely be stopping by again.“

“My fiance got us dinner today & I must say it taste very great. We have been looking for a good Jamaican restaurant for some time now.

“Don't let this tiny place dictate your opinion. The ox tail was flavorful and the fat melted in your mouth, meat falls off the bone so you know it has been cooking for a bit. The staff are friendly and welcoming. A hidden gem worth visiting if you're in the hood.“

“I hate to leave this but I feel I must. Stopped in on a Sunday, not too crowded but still a wait. I ordered fried rice for the first time and it was riddled with bacteria. IYKYK. So of course I threw out the meat it was packaged with. So disappointed 😞“

“If there’s a line… it moves pretty quickly.. so if you’re a first timer….they may not be too Patient. Food was good tho. Because they have a lot of repeat customers, I think they forgot that customer service is what brings customers back too. I’ll be back if I’m in the area.“

“I've only had breakfast food and it was delicious. Sometimes the saltfish is a hit or miss. sometimes the cook throws a little seasoning in which makes it taste so much better and sometimes they don't and it just taste like reg saltfish. Otherwise food is yummy!“

“Coalhouse Express and Market is hands down one of the best spots for authentic Jamaican food in the area. The flavors are bold, rich, and consistent every time you visit. From the perfectly seasoned jerk chicken to the tender oxtail and fresh sides, everything tastes like it’s made with real care and passion.
The staff is welcoming, the service is quick, and the overall vibe makes you feel like you’re getting a true Caribbean experience right here in Baldwin. You can tell they take pride in both their food and their customers.
If you’re looking for high-quality Jamaican cuisine with great portions and unforgettable flavor, this is definitely a place you need to try. Highly recommend!“

“I have been here quite a few times I love this little spot. However I finally gotten a bad waitress she lied about not having hot water to clean my silverware. I have stomach issues so I have to be extremely careful or ill have a terrible reaction. I instead used ice water and still had that terrible reaction I had to run out to puke was pouring sweat I was in between going to the er and trying to sleep off the pain I was in. I know next time to bring plastic wear or ask for a different waitress.“

“Our village roti shop is really very wonderful , tasty restaurant they have authentic Guyanese Trinidadian Suriname food which Is very tasty?

“Delicious 😋 definitely will be back“

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

“the jerk chicken is my fav. i have tasted majority of their food and i must say. its one of the best tasting restaurant in queens especially in the merrick area“

“Lately the pastries red bread pinetarts and blackeyes are horrible. Not very tasty and very dry. Very disappointing.“

“Great small restaurant for mom style Guyanese food, i.e., if mom was a great cook..“

“Let me tell you something. Lisa and Pete will make sure you have the absolute birthday. Somehow someway they brought out moves I haven’t pulled out in years. The food! They take their time because it is mouth watering. The drinks…. Well the first time I didn’t remember… but the second and third. Let’s just say it’s a good time all the time.“

“If I hadn’t peeked over the counter, I might never have realized this was a Jamaican restaurant. Aside from a few small Jamaican flags—which I didn’t immediately spot—the predominantly red signage doesn’t clearly reflect the Jamaican cuisine they offer.

That said, I thoroughly enjoyed my “small” portion of curry chicken with rice and peas, which many other places would probably consider medium-sized. Priced reasonably at $14.39, including a bottle of water, it was great value. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and cooked, while the rice and peas were expertly prepared, with just the right touch of coconut to bring out the traditional flavors.

The server, Alicia, was both polite and engaging, adding to the overall welcoming atmosphere. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in the area.

My only suggestion is that they make it more obvious to passersby that this is a Jamaican restaurant—perhaps by adding more green, black, and yellow to their signage.“

“Sati Roti Shop serves absolutely delicious food, and their warm, friendly customer service makes every visit a pleasure. On top of that, they’re incredibly generous—always donating amazing meals to our church next door. Truly a gem in the community!“

“This roti shop has the best Guyanese food on Rockaway blvd. Very fresh and very affordable for the quality and taste. There is comfortable seating for quick meals if you have no where to eat. I recommend this place especially for vegetable curries and roti which are satiating meals, available all day unlike other roti shops in the area!“

“Nice place to party. Cozy.“
