13 Best Caribbean Restaurants in New York

“My wife and I generally eat for five people, we ordered 4 small plates and 2 mains, still looking into dessert. Each dish had its own layer of perfection with unique flavors and exquisite presentation. I’d say a restaurant on its way to becoming Michelin…..bravo! Oh and the ole school hip hop added to the vibe. Enjoyed this dinner date immensely!👏👏👏👏😍😍😍😎😎😎“

“YUM! Great service, from the minute we walked in! The friendly hostess recognized us from a previous visit, the wait staff were on point, the chef came over to our table with complimentary soup, the music was upbeat and our food was delicious! Great vibes, highly recommend!“

“Great service, Great food“

“This place is a gem!

Food: We got the Oxtail Rigatoni and Jerk Chicken with rice and beans. Incredibly delicious!! The food was incredibly fresh and tasty, even after 2 days in the fridge after we took leftovers, it tasted really good.

Drinks: Marvarita was really good, sugarcane spritz was warm and not very good, you can pass.

Atmosphere: We went at 5pm on a Sunday, there was live music, hilarious singer who complemented people sitting around.

Service: 11/10. Barbara(the owner) is lovely, she came and said hi, chatted with us and even took our order. Our server was Anthony, delightful man, felt like he was a cousin. we felt like we were so welcome and KNOWN in the restaurant.

Pricepoint: ridiculously reasonable esp being in Greenwich.

This will be our go to Jamaican spot from this point on.“

“I’ve been coming to Omar’s for a few years now and every single time I come back it feels just like home. Exquisite everything… the epitome of a greatly ran restaurant. Thank you to the team and staff for making everything happen and such an amazing experience everytime I walk through that door.“

“love the music and the food was great..“

“What a gem. This cozy restaurant has everything I needed after a long day. The staff is friendly and polite. The space is comfortable - not too fancy and not too casual. Most importantly- the FOOD. The Salad Tropical was the most delicious salad I’ve had in my life - fresher than fresh with a unique and perfect blend of subtle flavors. I judge restaurants by their pork and the Lechon did not disappoint. Delicate flavorful seasoning complemented by tenderness. I will definitely remember this meal and recommend this place. Easily, I offer 5 stars.“

“An amazing place yo share with your loves one and have a good talk and share a delicious bottle of wine, food it’s amaze ! Really tasty and flavorful l, 10/10“

“The food was cooked to perfection texture is perfect I must say and the staff is friendly and attentive so the service gets a five-star unfortunately the food doesn't quite hit like a Jamaican spot should the flavors aren't their. it is good don't get me wrong but it is lacking that Jamaican passion those hole in the wall spots have.“

“Washington Heights location. Huge portions. Service was great. Was seated right away. The mofongo y churrasco was so yummy.“

“My opinion is 8.7/10. Is it the best Jamaican beef patty I've ever had? No but overall our place that makes handmade Jamaican beef patties with a good overall flavor I recommend it. Best thing definitely has to be the crust I just wish for $3 it was a little bit more meat / seasoning. Check out my in depth video reviews on any of the platforms below.
