“food is bussing!!!. love the customer service 👌“

“The food was delicious, the only reason I did not give it five stars because there two burnt
Oxtails in the bunch. Oxtails are now $5.000.00 dollars. There is no such thing as burnt oxtails when you
Paying money to the restaurant to prepare and cook. I purchased the largest meal I could find. Instead of getting rid of it you put the burnt meat on my plate . I was so busy admiring the place I didn’t see the man put the burnt meat on my plate for
My take out order. Next time I will keep close watch if I decide to come back
Or not. That burnt meat disturbs the taste . Next time I will keep close watch. The rice even smelled burnt thanks to those burnt up pieces of meat. Jerk chicken was good Mac n cheese good. Nice and clean establishment . The end“

“Food was Amazing location is great weather on perfect day definitely feel like I’m back home inside is also spectacular dining area“

“My mom's been raving about this spot, so it was our first stop in town! The decor is impeccable with beautiful, meaningful details, and the vibe is EVERYTHING. I love that they have high chairs for toddlers—many upscale places miss that mark. Our server Jerome was so helpful, and Matthew was super kind when we chatted. We tried the Montego Bay, Hugp Spritz, Rum Punch, and Island Float, and all the drinks were a 10/10! The food was also really good. I wasn't a huge fan of the trio tacos because there was minimal fried shrimp and I didn't like the plantain just sitting on top, but the flavor was amazing nonetheless, just needed more shrimp. The coconut shrimp were a 10/10, and the plantain cups are really good, they just need to be filled more.“

“I was unfamiliar with this restaurant, but my husband received a gift card from his colleagues at his retirement party. We came for Valentine's Day and were very pleased with the choice! We started with Old Fashioned and Fried Green Tomatoes. Perfect batter and crunch. The bacon jam gave the perfect amount of bite. Mr. TSwi had fish (sorry - no photo). I had the garlic clove stuffed filet. It was fork-tender and so delicious. Potatoes fried in tallow butter were decadent. We had the Bread Pudding for dessert - and the leftover for breakfast Sunday morning. Overall, great value for the quality of the food. Not ridiculously expensive. Not ostentatious (TSwi wore jeans and a blazer and was well-dressed compared to others.) We will look forward to coming back again soon.“

“Ripe is truly a hidden gem in Mount Vernon. The food is consistently good, but the steak is absolutely phenomenal, cooked to perfection every time. The mojitos are also some of the best I’ve had.

The service is excellent, and the staff makes you feel genuinely welcome from the moment you walk in. What I love most is the atmosphere: simple yet elegant, with the feeling of dining in a cozy home rather than a large restaurant. The photos of back home on the walls add warmth and character, creating a sense of nostalgia and community.

As someone from the Caribbean, I especially appreciate being surrounded by people who feel familiar and share a similar culture. It’s a comfortable place to relax, enjoy great food, and feel at home. Highly recommend!“

“The beautiful surroundings make dining more pleasurable. The dishes taste great, service flows smoothly, and everyone shows friendliness. The team creates an atmosphere where everyone belongs. This restaurant always exceeds my food expectations. I plan to eat here again and tell others about it.“

“Large selection of good tasty foods

Parking: Just drive around and look for parking.

Kid-friendliness: Friendly for your kids and friendly for everyone.

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes it is!!“

“We shared a GUACAMOLE with plantain chips. It was fresh and flavorful. I had the FAROE ISLAND SALMON. The salmon was flavorful and well done on the outside and moist on the inside. My husband enjoyed his medium CHURRASCO 14OZ. The drinks were strong 💪. I recommend this place. I enjoyed the old school salsa music.“

“i honestly had walked in for some drinks , but the food looked so good i had to get a medium pepper steak & first off , the portions ?? huge !!! the pepper steak was flavorful & tender & i like how they cooked the white rice , i would definitely eat here again , a meal & 3 drinks for only $21.50 ??? thats a deal in nyc !!“

“My family and I gathered there on May 7th to celebrate my daughter's graduation. We had a blast. The staffs are amazing and it was Karaoke night. Omg the drink, and mi a no big drinker enuh, was so good. The food is finger licking. Coming back for some curry shrimp. We had a good time. Big up the DJ and the waitresses. Love unuh bad. Thank you all. My daughter was very happy. Mission accomplished. The price is not bad for a Caribbean restaurant because unuh know fish price gone up. Dwl.“

“If you like authentic Jamaican food with real spices, pepper and all that, this is the place to go. It’s very clean and well maintained. Thank you Bishop Lynne Middleton for introducing me to this amazing restaurant. Yes the food was delicious! I don’t normally eat outside fried chicken but I decided to give it try with rice & peas with oxtail gravy, callaloo. I enjoyed the meal for 2 days. Even my friend who ordered oxtail, she was raving about it as well. She said, “I should’ve ordered 3 more meals.” I’ll be returning there very soon with another friend who likes authentic Jamaican food. 🍱 However, improvement is needed via the phone line, it can be quite challenging.“

“the food is always great, never disappointed.“

“Great food 🥘 Great staff. Always clean as well nice atmosphere“

“The hot patties are very good! The Farmer, 👏“

“I came here twice and I must say that the curry goat and fried chicken is the best. I order a medium curry goat with white rice and a side of fried chicken. 10/10. But for $26?! The issue is that you can’t really get what you want. Hear me out for example… you can’t get a small order of oxtail….like?! You can only get a medium size with a side. It’s overpriced. Just by looking at it I can tell it’s not even worth the price. Also if you get like a medium size meal with any meat and rice you can’t get it with plantain. It’s extra charge. BUT I WILL SAY THAT THE PORTION IS WORTH IT. THEY GIVE MORE. I’ve tried the Mac and cheese and it was baaaadd. Just cheese and unseasoned roux. That’s if they use roux. It’s oily and you can’t even see or smell a spec of seasoning. Taste like a sweet treat no shade. The fried chicken though I give that 15/10. Tastes better than Kennedys. The goat meat falls off the bonnnneeee. The rice is perfect; not too mushy and not too rough. I’m on my way there right now😂😂. Is it worth trying? Hell yeah. The Mac and cheese though.. that’s to your advantage.“

“Great little local spot I found on my FB timeline feed and decided to go myself for the Wednesday happy hour. I got the calamari spicy wings and coconut margarita. The wings were a little tough but very spicy the ranch dressing is definitely needed. The calamari was delicious fried to perfection with good sauce on the side, just wish they added lemon wedge. The coconut margarita was tasty with a nice buzz.“

“Really good food! Would recommend and return! Friendly staff too! 5 stars!“

“1st time here 2.28.26 definitely will be back when we come back to nyc wow food was delicious not salty just tasty had the rasta pasta cabbage jerk chicken curry goat curry chicken 😋 both workers were very nice and also big portions worth the money 💰 🇯🇲“

“Saw it on social media and had to go. House fried rice, oxtail empanadas, pepper shrimp YOWZERZ! DELICIOUS! All the rice dishes are something special. That freaking chicken is the best roasted chicken I've tasted! Needs to be in a Michelin star restaurant..go try this place..you won't be disappointed..“

“I saw that one review from the person saying their oxtail was bad, but saw a plethora of positive reviews standing against it. I decided to give them a go and do NOT regret it! Lovely little spot for a late night meal! The cashier was very pleasant with a great attitude. I came by after finding my Airbnb and ordered 3 empanadas: Jerk Chicken, Salmon, & Oxtail. This is not a standard menu option, but she told me I could mix and match :)

I loved it!!! WONDERFULLY tasty food and a perfect crisp to the empanadas - not too hard and not too soft/mushy. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“good music 🎶 excellent crowd on point“

“Entered, menu was very visible, the guy in the front was extremely respectful and straight forward, the place was room temp and pretty comfy, the rice was rlly good, the mac & cheese was incredible. The only thing was the oxtail lacked some flavor but still tender and enjoyable.“

“Went here because a restaurant we usually visit was closed 40 minutes before it’s closing time. Never been here and didn’t hear from anyone, just saw the reviews, I was close by and so what the hec, I decided to give it a try. Wow! Did not disappoint!! Ordered a large oxtails with rice & peas, unfortunately they were out of sweet plantains but the food was Deeeelicious! Yum, The rest of the food on dispuslso looked good. Yum! Great spot and service was superb. If you’re in the area or just want some slamming Jamaican food, stop at Flamez and enjoy! You’re welcome lol
I was so hungry forgot to snap a pic“

“On time delivery and great tasting satisfying food.“

“Fresh food, great prices, big portions.Empanadas anywhere in the BX are $2-$2.50. here they are $1. Everything here was priced more affordably compared to any of the other Dominican spots on 138th street and in the neighborhood. Big plates. Also, they cater to the blue collar crowd. Lunch food is ready by 9:30AM. Perfect lunch spot if you're a city worker, construction, etc.“

“Another little gem in NYC, the service and staff is very warm and friendly. It's like they're inviting you into their home. There was a dj that played music to get you dancing, it was a little loud but we didn't mind it being that we don't go out often. The food is pricey but very good quality and the presentation is amazing from the drinks down to the food. Make sure to show this place some love.“

“Very delightful the workers are full of joy and love Godbless them and the food smell so great. I never ate here before ....coming from the mountains of PA ...shoot this is A blessing????????????I'm here right now dead serious... yoo yall should come ????come eat!“

“At the moment you arrive in this restaurant team give you a pleasant feeling. Very comfortable waiters, it is a kind place to pass time with friends or with your date. very good meals, qualified chief cook and stuff, honest pay and excellent service. Warmly recommended.“

“First of all I would like to say please people check out this cousin and make your order your missing out on the best jamaican/caribbean cousins....her cooking is second to none...please check it out“

“The food is absolutely delicious and good prices“

“Wanted to take some time to show my appreciation. My family and I were very pleased with our selection of this establishment for our repast service for my mother. The owner was very accommodating in short notice. The buffet that was laid out was just what we ordered. Place was very clean and the service from the staff was amazing. Really can’t say enough about that part. From the picking up of finished plates, them coming around with multiple fruit options, opening up for us 20 mins early so we weren’t in the blazing sun, and the show of support in our time of grieving. Tonia thank you for going above and beyond. 5 stars for sure. Once again my family and I humbly thank you.“

“Our go to restaurant for special occasions and just because! We always have fantastic service, amazing hurricanes (deluxe, of course) delicious food and the perfect ambiance for a fun night out. We have loved Big Daddy's for years. It NEVER disappoints.“

“I stopped by Tasty Caribbean Plus Buffet back in April last year, so I don’t remember every detail, but I do remember the plate being very filling. I loaded up on a mix of mac and cheese, fried chicken, stewed meat, shrimp, and vegetables. The mac and cheese was creamy, the chicken had a nice crispy bite, and the stewed meat was tender with good flavor.

Overall it was a solid, hearty meal, but it didn’t quite hit my soul the way some Caribbean spots do. One thing to keep in mind is that you pay by weight, so your plate can add up quickly if you’re not careful. Still a decent spot if you’re looking for a filling plate with a lot of options. 🍽️“

“Nice spot good food good music great people a place to unwind“

“**Review for Les Q**

I have been a loyal customer of Les Q for the past 4.5 years, and my experience has been consistently outstanding.

The food at Les Q is consistently good, which is a rarity in many places. Whether you're a regular or a first-time visitor, you can always expect delicious, well-prepared dishes. The menu offers a great variety, and everything I've tried has been top-notch.

Overall, Les Q is a gem of a restaurant, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking good food. Kudos to Howie and his fantastic team for their exceptional service and culinary consistency!“
