Caribbean Restaurants near Collingdale

“Fair price with great portions, regarding the large size. I got jerk chicken and stewed chicken and they both had plenty of meat, not just bones.

I would recommend.

Parking: There’s usually a spot in front of or on the block of Ms Tinys that you can run in and out no problem, or at the very least on the next block.“

“A very good restaurant featuring the cuisine of Trinidad.“

“When I tell you this food is so good. I had the oxtail platter. I have never taste anything like that before. Now I had oxtails before, but these were so tender and seasoned so well. They fell off the bone. So tender. I didn’t even get to pull off. My plan was to take them home and enjoy. I snuck a bite and couldn’t stop. I’m a customer for life. I’m not going anywhere. Y’all are great. This is my first time. I’m sending some more people yall way.“

“This was my second time getting platters and they did not disappoint. The food is delicious! You can’t go wrong with any of the items on the menu. The portion size is amazing. You can absolutely have a medium platter for two meals. The service is excellent. Overall, great experience across the board.“

“Good food and good people 👍🏾“

“The food has such an authentic taste I love the oxtails they're so meaty and very tender with lots of flavor. Customer service is always superb and the prices aren't too bad. I remember them from before the relaunch and even then it wasn't too bad, ,but now it's even better I hope they continue to serve such delicious food I really do enjoy visiting this spot“

“I DIDNT WANT TO ONE STAR,
However , I have been to this place, all times of the day , all days of the week, when Google says it’s open, never have I met this place open.
Maybe update business to temporarily closed ?
The phone number you also have on Google doesn’t seem to work ?“

“I love Zion's Cuisine. It is a neighborhood gem and I will miss it if/ when I move out. I usually get brown stew chicken, beef stew, or pepper steak. The food is affordable, delicious, and healthy, and a large platter is good for 2-3 big meals (I do use rice from home to stretch it). Zion's is my go-to when I don't have the time or energy to make something decent for myself.No restaurant review is complete without a criticism, so: I wish they made it clear what is available each day. This goes for all Jamaican spots, but it seems like every day there is something they don't have. Knowing what's available with an updated list (instead of an interrogation at the order counter) would also give me the opportunity to try dishes I haven't before, such as their soups and breakfast items.Also, although their cabbage is the best Jamaican cabbage I've ever had, when I get cabbage and greens as sides I wish they would put my greens in the little slot for sides instead of always the cabbage. I end up with enough cabbage for two meals but only one meal worth of greens. Maybe greens are more expensive for them.. I will ask to pay extra for this next time and see what they say.Overall, Zion's is my favorite restaurant in the area and I am already looking forward to the next time I fall woefully behind on my food prep.

“Calabash is another one of our frequent favorites! We stop in regularly for their Sunday brunch and BAY-BEE…They NEVER disappoint! The staff are attentive and check in throughout your dining experience to ensure you have everything you need and everyone is always so friendly.The dining and food areas are always clean and well organized. The space is large and decor is simple. This is a great open space for dining during COVID as all the tables are well spaced out allowing parties to social distance. All staff wore gloves and masks today. We loved to see Calabash doing their part in keeping their customers and staff safe.One thing about Calabash, they are always going to offer a variety of options to choose from. Choosing what to eat is the hardest part because literally everything looks so amazing. It’s all about how much space you can save in between plates. From home fries to oxtails, EVERYTHING is amazing and satisfies that Island food craving! Sunday brunch also includes bottomless mimosas and I absolutely LOVEEEE mimosas!The pancakes are fluffy and remind me of funnel cake; thy are made so perfectly every time. THIS PLACE DOES NOT MISS! The fish is always fried to a perfect golden brown and very dish is flavorful and savory.Calabash will continue to be on my list of repeats! Check them out and be sure to make it to next Sunday’s Brunch!“

“Delicious Jamaican food! We had the jerk chicken and curry chicken. Both were fall off the bone tender with the right amount of spice. The service was pleasant and the portions were plentiful! The patties were the tastiest I’ve ever had! Be sure to try Ms. Georgiana’s homemade pineapple ginger juice too! You won’t be disappointed!“

“Yum yum good. They pile it high with flavorful food. Pays to buy it vs trying to make it yourself. Would give 5 stars only negative is little salty but that's because I need low salt diet“

“Overall the food is tasty. I have had their Chicken Curry, Stewed Chicken, Rice and Peas, String Beans, Mac n Cheese. Definitely more of a "hole in the wall spot." The space is dark, quiet and not particularly welcoming, but you can order food and you can tell they can cook. It is defintiely better than other spots in the city. Id recommend folks get it "To Go." They have Caribbean drinks to buy too.“

“Sheba's serves up some quality jerk chicken. I also appreciate that there are also vegetarian options. The jerk tofu is just as flavorful and delicious as the chicken. The veggie curry is another delicious dish.
Most people order ahead as the few times I've gone is about a 25 min wait for food. Reasonably priced and you can even just get a side of chicken solo. One of my favorite spots to eat at.“

“Yesterday I got the Oxtails, rice & peas, mac & cheese and steamed cabbage. Every bit of it was delicious!!! the good there never disappoints! Kudos to the chef!!! Irie!!!!“

“Is a Great place to be, but needs better bartenders, it takes Forever to get a drink!! Other than that is fun to be around!“

“The food is amazing. I ordered a small pepper steak with a side of Mac and cheese and candy yams. I thought my platter was going to be little… it wasn’t! The mac is good, the steak strips were tender, and the yams were cooked perfectly. I paid $14 even. Service was fine! He greeted us as we walked in and was helpful. 5 stars!

“First time ordering here I ordered the large curry chicken with white rice cabbage and two jerk rolls...Portion nice amount of meat no complaints about the platter. Nowwww the jerk rolls my fiancee swallowed his he said it's spicy I was into the second bite I said ohh no I can't do it lol leave that to the spicy eaters lol“

“My date and I checked this restaurant put after craving for some Latin food. Friendly staff and waitress at the door to start our dining experience on the right foot.

Our appetizers were the Empanadas and a Sopa de Pollo(chicken soup). Soup was delicious and I recommend getting the chicken empanadas over the beef due to more flavor.

My date had the Ropa Vieja, a stewed flank steak, while I had the Churrasco Colombiano with garlic shrimp, which is a grilled ribeye steak in medium temperature. Excellent dishes and the spices were great with both the meats and shrimp.

Definitely check this place out for a filling Latin dinner experience!“

“Best Jamaican restaurant in Philly“

“First time at this restaurant...Food was on point definitely be back soon..“

“Are you still open ???? What's the new number ??? Thanks“

“I love this place. If you are ever in philly you must try this Ghanian spot! If you like spicy this is the place. If you like rice get the jollof! My favorite is light soup with fufu. The peanut litter soup is bomb! Matter fact just eat everything. Only come if you have time to enjoy. Service is not typical of most American dinner time standards. Call ahead to ensure they are open that weekend! I wish they delivered via an app. But still worth going for the experience.“

“Just had a party yesterday and decided to go with Hallow Bamboo for the catering. Everything from the ordering process, to the service and especially the food was EXCELLENT! My wife and I will definitely become regulars and will use them for our catering needs in the future, thanks Shelli and Steve!“

“The food is great and worth the price.“

“the ox tails with the beans and rice. yes sir“

“I stopped in because I found the restaurant on Phillyblackowned.com, a map for black owned businesses in Philly. I'm so happy that I found this business. The owner is very friendly, made me feel welcomed, and the food is delicious. I ordered the lamb with rice, and it was so tasty, I had to share my experience. I'll definitely be back.“

“Playlist was popping from the jump.8am-12:30p Mon-Sat is Breakfast ?Follow @swadekartel for the menuOrder was quick & easy.Platter was BOMB, okay?! Don’t hesitate on the French toast bites. They don’t even need syrup ?‍?I got turkey bacon, fried eggs & potatoes.Everything cooked to perfection ?I forgot to grab the banana pudding ? so I’ll definitely be back for more ?“

“This place may seem a little off but don’t be afraid because inside is flavor like no other. The food was super yummy and the price was surprisingly reasonable. But the true gem was their homemade juice. We tried the watermelon juice and it was like biting into a fresh slice of watermelon. For food we tried the curry goat with rice and peas and cabbage, and the oxtails with sweet potatoes and collard greens. The portions were a lot for the price all together we spent 37 for the food we also had two Pepsi and two waters and 8 for the homemade juice“

“Great place to eat. Friendly atmosphere and great people“

“If you are looking for a good Island Vibe this is the place to go to . Wide selection of Inland beers and food . No need to go to NYC“

“Today, I had a taste for delicious Jamaican food. I live in NE Philadelphia, but I have no problem jumping in the car and traveling to Wharton Street in South Philly to see Mr. Rich and get his curry chicken, rice and peas, yams and greens. My wife likes the rice and peas, yams and Mac n cheese. It is so worth the time and travel.

The owner is caring and personable also. I'm trying to get him to have a location in the NE. I'm sure it would do well, ya'mon. God bless him“

“Excelente...“

“For a taste of the Caribbean in Philly, Tropical Choice Jamaican & American Restaurant is the place to be! This spot is beloved for its authentic Jamaican dishes like jerk chicken, curry goat, and oxtails, all bursting with flavor. The friendly staff and cozy atmosphere make it a favorite among locals. Whether you’re in the mood for a hearty meal or a quick bite, their menu has something for everyone. Don’t miss out on their delicious sides like plantains and rice and peas. It’s a culinary adventure you won’t forget!“

“I eat here every week it's delicious only thing it's not open everyday Wednesday through Sunday is good days so if you like good Jamaican food stop by Aunt Annie's a very good cook“

“At the first moment you step in that place the personel give you a pleasant feeling. Very hospitable hosts, it is a good place to go out with your friends or with your date. Great food, talented chef, comfortable cost and generous service. Warmly recommended.“

“So yummy! Fast and delicious food with really nice staff! Would definitely buy again!“

“Excellent food for the price. There's always a long line of people, which makes it quality food if people keep going back.

Kid-friendliness: My son has milk allergy and I was able to get the Caribbean J*** rice lettuce tomato and the side dish of beans and something else and it was like under $25 and we got Mexican soda and a dessert we shared the Mexican soda but he couldn't have the dessert cuz it wasn't dairy free the whole family was able to share the largest dish so it was enough for the whole family“

“I love their curry goat, been eating here for awhile now. Always sending a family to get me something. Never disappointed with the flavors and variety of dish to choose from. Very generous with proportions. Lots of drinks and delicious dessert to choose from.“

“Hands down one of the best Jamaican spots around. The owner/cook reminds me of the dad from the Sean Paul-Get busy video. ?,,,I’ve had the curry chicken,the fish but my favorite is the jerk chicken. He grills that chicken to perfection every time! The mac n cheese is always good af to even they do give you the end of the pan.“

“Had the fish that was so pretty and golden with no fishy flavor at all. Greens were good, macaroni and cheese was good too though I usually like mine a little extra cheesy, but it was on point. I'd show ya'll my food but it's gone. Had enough for two meals.“

“My First Time trying their Food. I Loved how much Care they had when preparing My Order. I had a small Jerk Chicken Platter with Oxtail Gravy and Two sides Mac and Cheese with Mixed Vegetables. I also had another side of Candied Yams or Sweet Potatoes. Thank You D's Caribbean and American Food. 😇😎👏👏👏👏💖💐“

“My husband picked up 5 quarter j*** chicken with two sides today. The food smelled amazing when he walked in so I knew it was on when we broke our fast. And it was! Absolutely delicious!! Each and every container of food was so good! It tasted homemade and fresh. I told my husband I can’t wait to try the oxtail. I’m already thinking about the next order! Yummy“
