Walked in and ordered some fish meal. The owner/chef was kind/professional and courteous to inform that fish meals are prepared/made to order. I had time and I let him know that I can and will wait. While I’m waiting he brings out some tender fresh juicy chicken tenders for me to enjoy while I wait for my meals. Experience customer service 10/10 love when I feel like my money and me is appreciated. Sorry no pics of the tender cause I was hungry and I yam it down. Respect....read full review
The food a good for sure. They don’t have shrimp like the did in the past. The phone never works.
Oxtails are consistently good , my husband didn't like the jerk chicken 😐....but the Bobby fried chicken was delicious. My son liked the pasta and the chicken fried rice .

Richie Rich Caribbean Taste is a Caribbean restaurant located on 5th Ave. Their menu features a variety of traditional dishes, including chicken soup, curry goat, and oxtail. Reviewers have praised the taste of their menu items, with some noting that the flavor is reminiscent of a "cozy home" and "old school soup." Many customers enjoy their friendly service and fair prices, and some have praised specific dishes like pumpkin and banana porridge, calling it the best in Mount Vernon. However, some have experienced issues with the consistency of their orders, such as missing dumplings in chicken soup or receiving old chicken instead of fresh. Recently, the oxtail has been described as fatty and not as good as before. The atmosphere is not rated, and service can sometimes be hit or miss, with occasional attitude from staff. Some orders have arrived cold or incomplete, including rice, peas, and chicken, without utensils or napkins. Despite these inconsistencies, many find the food to be flavorful and authentic, making it a popular choice for those seeking Caribbean and soul food in the area.
