“I only had a bottle of ginger beer and a fried dough ball. On a 95-degree afternoon, the drink really hit the spot and the dough ball, whatever its ingredients, was surprisingly and incredibly delicious. And it was only 50 cents! The young man behind the counter was very pleasant and helpful.BTW, this was right after I had two decent tacos just next door, but the service was not particularly friendly.“
“This restaurant is popping with their stew peas and rice.. when in the Bronx I stop by and pick up a plate.. it’s very good and Munchie is very personable and offer good service.. I just love their stew peas which was referred to me by a friend years ago??❤️“

“I first called to make sure that the restaurant was opened and a lovely young lady answered and I found her to be very knowledgeable about the food being served and various items on the menu and she kindly provided me with the address, upon arrival I was greeted by a women behind the counter however she was on the phone with a customer placing an order and she acknowledged me while on the phone I patiently waited and once she finished she apologized and kindly took my order, I just knew by the atmosphere and the awesome customer service, that the food was going to not disappoint, my order consisted of the Rasta Pasta DELICIOUS ?? I also got the Oxtail and Mac & cheese the oxtail’s where Succulent and the portions where sizable and generous I’m happy to say should you be in the Ossining area or by way of White Plains Newyork you will not be disappointed the food is DELICIOUS and customer service friendly and welcoming I’ll be back to try various dishes by way of Jamaica ?? ??????“
“While searching for something different for dinner, came across D'Bay and realized that Jerk Chicken would really hit the spot. The reviews were good but had some questions about sides etc so I called the restaurant. The gentleman who picked up answered my questions and I really enjoyed talking with him. He told me what he had available (plenty of Jerk Chicken and Jerk Pork, almost out of curry goat, enough for a small serving) and I placed my order with him. I drove over with my daughter, found there were two municipal lots on either end of the block he was on, so parking was easy. Ended up getting a large Jerk Chicken and a large Jerk Pork, both with rice n peas and mixed veg/cabbage and a small curry goat, with rice n peas and mix veg/cabbage. All the dishes also came with plantain. We also got a homemade sorrel juice, a homemade peach mango juice and two muffins (banana and carrot). The food was waiting there for us and the owner (the guy I spoke to on the phone) provided great customer service with a smile. I paid with cash ($58 for everything) and told him we would see him soon. The food was really tasty, with the large orders having enough for two meals. The banana muffin was good but the carrot muffin was really amazing. Overall a very good experience and we will definitely be back there again for more very tasty food.The two pics are Jerk Chicken and Jerk Pork. We started eating before I could remember to take pics, so note that the dishes do come with more food in them. Sorry I could not post the curry goat but my daughter finished it off before I could get a picture.“
“I enjoy driving long distances to try new food places specially family owned and I'm so glad I came across this hidden gem. I've been trying to find a good Jamaican food spot and I believe I finally found it. The quality of food was really good, fresh and delicious. The Mango Carrot juice I tried is so refreshing and reminds me of my childhood. The woman upfront was super helpful and explained everything that was available. The place is small but those are the best places, it's nice to get your food and take it to go. I will be coming back, Thanks!“
“My first time in mount vernon NY. The Steam House was amazing. Our party of 8 were the only people in the place at the time. It felt like we had a private party. Attention to customer service was great and the food was even better. Highly “
“Usually I don’t trust high ratings with only a few stars but I tried today while waiting on some work to get done and definitely left full and satisfied. Can definitely recommend their stew and fried chicken. Will be returning when next I’m in the area.“
“There are many foods options to choose from, such as authentic Jamaican curry goat, tripe with beans and fried chicken are my faves - good portions with great taste. I swear someone's grandmother is in the kitchen putting in that work. I recommend this establishment and have gone back way over several times!!!“
“Friendly service, VERY reasonable prices, almost cheap if I’m being honest. The jerk chicken was good, could’ve had more spice for my liking, but it was good. The rice and peas delicious, and the curry chicken gravy I got over my rice was amazing I think I might try the curry chicken next time. I will definitely go back again.“
“I came here looking for mangoVille which was a spot i used to visit a few years back but I was pleasantly surprised that the name was changed but they served the same kind of food. The inside of the store was a bit empty probably due to the fact that I came there in the late evening but the inside was very clean and the staff was very nice and friendly. I got a small order of oxtails with rice and peas and steamed vegetables to go. The price was a bit steep at $15 but everyone knows oxtails is really expensive. I took the food back to my room poured myself a drink and I began to feast the first bite my taste buds went wild not too sweet not too spicy just right. The meal I ordered was delicious and I will definitely try other options on the menu I can definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a place for some nice Caribbean food to dine on.“
“Pay attention to the address… the store is located under train. So after walking in from the street I immediately was greeted. I ordered two large oxtails one with rice n peas the other with Callaloo. The plates were heavy !! And made with love and respect … big up’s to the chef will be returning for more… and the prices were definitely reasonable. Good buy !!!!!!“
“This area is full of Jamaican restaurants I tried most of them when I moved here about two months ago. This is the only one that I would recommend the food is always good and they give great portions. I have never seen a Jamaican restaurant that gives you so much oxtails. If you just moved to this area, you have to try this place. You will definitely love it.“
“I started posting reviews on my second visit to food locations that didn't live up to some of the hype. So the food here is very good. I had the pork. Very tasty and full of flavor. The chicken was mediocre for me and this is the second time I've had it. Also it wasn't burnt but tough. Mac and cheese was not worth the calories. But I'll still continue to try more of their dishes.“
“Usually when you go to a Jamaican resturant the staff treat you like they don’t want you there, maybe because they don’t want to be there themselves. This is NOT the case at Cravin!!! The Energy is Always Pure & Positive, The Staff Greets you when you walk in, they talk to you, make jokes, etc. Sometimes my whole mood changes just from going there. THEN, theres the Food…Freakin Amazing, & It’s Consistant!! What you get on Monday is the Samething you gon get on Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday, etc. I’m There At Least Once or a Week ( most times more than that), it’s to the point where they know what I want lol. S/O to Victoria, holds it down everytime. If you havent been, GO!!! Everything is A1!!! Tell Em Ali The Greatest sent you.“
