22 Best Caribbean Restaurants in Queens

“Very impressed since they was decorating the place. I was passing by every day till they finally open and I desire to try the food, I was curious and also I’m not a vegan person. When I finally try that food I just got in shock. Super tasty, delicious, the Trinidad and Dominican Republic flavors- was so down the earth. So thankful to have them at the neighborhood, the service is excellent and Yesenia and her employees super professionals. The ambiance and decoration soo relaxing- I love the food and the service, how they welcome you, is hard to find a place like that. Highly recommended to everyone- vegan or not vegan- 🥗 the talent is there and I wish them success- nice location, sparkling clean - if you are looking for good food - this is your spot-“

“OMG!!! Everyone needs to dive into the flavor of Cookerz Blend, one of Queens hidden gem on 217-84 Hempstead Ave. From the moment you walk in, you're not just a guest, you are family!!! The warm welcome from both staff and fellow diners sets the stage for an unforgettable experience. I was like, "why is everyone clapping?" Prepare your taste buds for a rollercoaster ride of deliciousness! One visit was all it took for me to fall head over heels for their mouth watering menu. Whether you're craving oxtails, irresistible jerk chicken, or hmmmmm... theeeee honey-glazed salmon that's seasoned to perfection, Cookerz Blend delivers every time! Ha, there's more, you should taste their rasta pasta, it's so divine... heavenly! Oh yes, the fried chicken wings that practically melt off the bone with each bite. oh, oh, oh, and let's not forget about the pepper steak and the curried goat - juicy, tender, and bursting with flavor. Even if you fancy yourself a kitchen whiz like myself, Cookers Blend culinary magic will keep you coming back for more. They kept pulling me back in, like what the hell is their secret ingredient? With each visit, I'm not just dining out, I'm embarking on a flavor filled journey that's keeping me hooked. Don't take my word for it, experience it for yourself, trust, you'll thank me later. Prepare to become a lifetime devotee. Thanks to ALL the staff, you got a lifetime customer!“

“Sheldon was great at helping me order. His customer service skills are above and beyond geared towards making the customer have a great experience. He's a gentleman and knowledgeable to answer any question about the menu. The jerk chicken.. to die for; very delicious. The rice and salad were very tasty complements. I would highly recommend eating in or ordering to go at Jerk King.“

“Never been disappointed with the food from New Thriving Restaurant here on 120-12 Liberty Ave. Queens!!! Can't get enough of the Jerk Chicken LoMein or Garlic chicken chow mein!!! Not to mention they serve you man size portion plates and with friendly/pretty smiles... I'm giving them 5 Stars on the food and service alone!!“

“Nice place to unwind and enjoy great service from the awesome bartender's Shorn and Linval. Those drinks are amazing very punching. (Rum Punch)“

“Oh my, the quality and taste is top notch. The way they make the crust is really good! The best i’ve had + they have great choices to choose from. Definitely better than Golden Krust patties and Golden Krust is pretty good“

“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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“Before visiting this restaurant, I read the reviews on Google and I never got up to go one day. I was passing by and I decided to go in and check them out first of all if you were looking for like homemade Guyanese fried rice then definitely go there. It’s so yummy. It’s a little on the spice side but very yummy. I also tried the bubble tea and it was amazing for a small restaurant, the white pudding is also very good and fresh. Definitely check them out.“

“I must say their food is delicious , shrimp wontons is sooo good .. I had the pepper shrimp over fry rice it was very tasty .. the staff was very friendly .. price is great“

“Was a bit skeptical because of the reviews, but this place surprised me. My brother picked up the food and said the spot itself looked really nice, especially for a restaurant/lounge setup. They told us 45 minutes, and it was worth the wait. The jerk chicken Rasta pasta was flavorful, with perfectly cooked al dente pasta and well-seasoned chicken. The cha chi chicken stood out too, covered in a sweet, peppery sauce that I actually loved. Overall, the food was really good. Definitely felt like a gamble based on the ratings, but it paid off! Looked like they really improved off their reviews.“

“This spot is new to the block according to the owner which was very nice. For a spot that just came in, the food was delicious I must admit, there wasn’t much we could pick from the menu because they were still getting things together but I got chicken, macaroni and cheese inside a craved out pineapple. Yummy… the service was laggy however it’s clear they were trying which made the process feel promising. I believe within a year or 2 this spot is going to be poppin off something nice. Drinks were ok!“

“If you love Jamaican food perfect place to go eat and enjoy 😉“

“Service 10/10
Food 5/10

Can count how many chickpea I gotin my doubles with one hand and it was more of a dried paste like consistency. Got it with everything, guess they use that “everything sauce”, unlike Trini delight that individually puts everything so it's blasting with flavor, you taste the cucumbers, kuchela etc.

I give 4 stars because the service is amazing, and this review aims to help the business know they need to put more effort in their product.

A few years ago before they rebranded, this place had the best food hands down!“

“Chicken Curry was good! Spicy like me!! 🤭😀“

“So don't tell the folks at tropical jerk that I found you guys...

They
cute little mini meals.

Andy they control the pepper ..

Sorry but not every one controls the scotch bonnet“

“I enjoyed a truly delicious breakfast today featuring perfectly cooked Ackee and Saltfish, accompanied by tender green banana, yam, and dumplings. Each component was boiled to perfection, making the meal both hearty and satisfying. The Ackee and Saltfish was seasoned just right, with a balanced touch of pepper and spices that elevated the flavors without overpowering them. To complement the meal, I had a refreshing bottle of water. All of this came at a very reasonable price of $19, offering great value for a flavourful and wholesome start to the day!“

“I had the best Thanksgiving Dinner once again this year.. last year was my introduction, and this year they out did themselves. The best jerk Fry turkey in the world. Tender, tasty, properly cooked. If mom liked it, you know it's good. The service was impeccable, timely, and professional. Everything was fresh , including the wonderful sweet potato jamaica 🇯🇲 pudding, loved 😋 it. thank you jT&J for making my Thanksgiving A Success“

“The owner is very cordial and considerate. The restaurant is clean and has two bathrooms one for men and one for women. I had a beef stew which was a lunch special it had white rice ,mixed vegetables and lots of beef. It would’ve been better on separate plates for each of the items on the special. I’m sure if asked they would serve the special on respective separate plates when asked. The food is served from a hot table with 8 or 10 selections of entrees ofbeef,pork,chicken,and vegetables as well as white rice. It is a basic eat in restaurant doing a large delivery business. The do have a wine and beer license and serve after 12 pm. I tipped though it wasn’t implied. A good place to go.“

“Absolutely love Jamrock Jerk!! The people working the truck are always friendly. The food is delicious and I especially love their rice and gravy. My favorite platter is the pork platter and the oxtail, if you can catch them before they sell out for the day.“
