“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!👏👏👏👏😍😍😍😎😎😎“

“Tonight, the incredible NYC dining experiences continued at Kabawa -- the ridiculously delicious Caribbean inspired restaurant on the lower East side. 🔥

As remarkable as I look, the hospitality was top-tier -- the kind of service that feels like family. I really could eat there monthly, it was so relaxed, comforting, and delicious. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Oxtail was a 10/10, absolutely amazing, and all the sides were great. I wasn’t a big fan of the brown stew chicken (the chicken itself was a bit dry), but the stew was rich and flavorful.
The atmosphere was perfect for a date night or a calm dinner. The owner’s wife even stopped by to let us know they have jazz on some Fridays and weekends, which was a really nice touch. They’re still new, so please be kind — but the FOOD WAS GOOD.We also tried the mango mint non-alcoholic drink, which was refreshing and delicious. Definitely worth checking out!“

“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.

“Awesome frozen lemonades that were the perfect antidote to a hot day riding bikes on govenors island. We had the mango, pineapple and lavender ones, then went back for seconds! Yes, at $7 each we spent too much but it was so worth it.

My favorite is the lavender lemonade, which they source from the lavender gardens right on the island! My daughter and I strolled through it before finding it at Fauzia’s. That was fun.“

“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.“

“I run the Bayonne Chess Society & Club. We have over 300 members in three month. We're on Facebook. I went here to see if they were open to having a chess night. It seemed like they didn't know much about chess.Anyway, the food looked good. The place is brightly lit, airy, and clean. I ordered a Cuban sandwich to eat there. It took a while, it wasn't that busy, but I was in no hurry, as I was walking around looking for more venues for the club to host events.One of their employees arrived with the sandwich. It was DELICIOUS. I had a coconut soda as my drink. Definitely recommend this place.I also recommend our huge chess club. No experience necessary. All ages can join.Look us up. We play at Joe's Pizza, Chubby's, Cafe 26, Houlihan's, Bayown's Vendor Mart. We have other locations that are waiting for us to go play there.The chess is free. The venue isn't. Please patronize the venue.But, if you're looking for some excellent Spanish food...Karibbean is an excellent choice.“
