Maxwells Caribbean/American Take-out offers good portions of delicious food at a reasonable price. Customers enjoy dishes like pepper steak and spicy j*** shrimp, along with popular items such as curry chicken, oxtails, turkey wings and rice, stewed chicken, jerk wings, and curry goat. The restaurant even has air conditioning, a rare find in Caribbean spots. While some mention that the food can go sour quickly, overall, the tasty Mac and cheese and collards keep diners coming back for more. The staff provides friendly and helpful service, making the experience enjoyable despite the modest and somewhat grimy setting that matches the neighborhood. Many customers praise the quality and flavor of the food, with some calling it the best fish in the city and a go-to spot for Caribbean cuisine.
