I dined in for an early dinner and ordered the Brown Stew Chicken w Yams & Collard Greens, Fish Soup, and Watermelon Juice. Everything was very tasty! The yams didn’t have much additional flavor though but I didn’t mind because as a side they just absorbed the sauce from the Brown Stew Chicken and got flavored that way. Also they seem to use pretty fresh produce so all the produce had more of its own natural flavor - yams, collard greens, as well as the cabbage and carrots in the Stew, and the okra in the Fish Soup. The flavors in the Fish Soup seemed unique to me and I really enjoyed it. The soup came with a tasty dumpling in it as well (not sure if there is a different name for this dumpling but I will be doing more research on Caribbean cuisines). I also liked that there were not bones in the soup as I often expect bones when ordering most meats from Caribbean restaurants but I’m not a fan of dealing with them. The Brown Stew Chicken while very tasty and flavorful, does have bones in it. Everything was well seasoned and salty, but not to an offensive extent at all - just perfect and as expected. Last but not least, the Watermelon Juice was a very refreshing addition to the meal that was much appreciated after walking in hot weather. It tasted like fresh fruit and was sweet but not too sweet! It was honestly a real necessity at the time, so I’m glad I found this place. I definitely want to come back and try more of their food.
The service was also great! Everyone working there seemed friendly, which is definitely not always the case, and I felt welcome. Someone (the chef?) came out to personally take orders to speed up the line which wasn’t even long, so they seem committed to getting people their food fast (despite “island time” existing in Caribbean cultures). The menu is simple which allows them to have everything ready quickly & at a high quality. The quality of the food is what matters above all, and it seems they understand that. Also be ready with cash as it is Cash Only.
I love the cozy vibe and the old school diner/lunch counter aesthetics, but I felt like the dining room/bar space should be better utilized. I understand this situation isn’t even necessarily their fault as we are in the era of takeout, and they clearly put their money towards making sure the food is good, which is obviously most important. I also understand they are dealing with the fact that their menu isn’t super conducive for the bar/lunch counter setting, and it’s detached from the kitchen, but it has a purpose - it’s where they make and serve the homemade juices. Something as simple as pictures of the main ingredients in the juices could be a low cost way to liven up this area and serve a practical purpose as well. They have big, comfortable tables which some restaurants in the area don’t even offer anymore, so I appreciated that.

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

Been coming here for years and food has always been good. I liked this restaurant more better back then. But overall the prices are still reasonable and the food is still worth buying because how much you get.
They are very professional and the food is amazing, especially for real islanders!!!!

Has a picnic date with the wife on a beautiful sunny day.Decided to get some oxtails from Little Delicious, to set the mood. I set the blankets and baskets, flowers etc only to have the most bland food in my life no flavor no substance not even a grain of salt to add flavor. Very horrible performance. Not to mention the chicken was just a rotisserie with an imitation of jerk seasoning cause it had no taste as well.

Little Delicious at Woodland Ave is an absolute gem! They serve up the most mouth-watering Jamaican cuisine that will leave you craving more. The jerk chicken is perfectly spicy and bursting with flavor. The oxtail is so tender and savory, it practically melts in your mouth. Don’t even get me started on the crispy, delicious patties! The portions are generous, ensuring you leave fully satisfied. The atmosphere is vibrant and lively, making every visit a joyous experience. The staff is incredibly warm and welcoming, adding to the overall charm. If you’re in the mood for authentic Jamaican flavors, Little Delicious is a must-visit spot!

Best Jamaican/Caribbean food in west/southwest Philadelphia. Large jerk chicken, rice, cabbage with ox tail gravy tastes great! I am a big guy and I can eat off of the platter for 2 days $15
