“My family decided to visit Caribbean Deck Cafe while we were vacationing in the Poconos. From the moment we walked in, Shaine treated us like family! He allowed us to taste test a few dishes and we enjoyed talking to him about all kinds of things. As for the food itself, it felt like we were at Shaine's backyard barbeque! He kept piling it on and the portions were huge! We tried the curry goat (my favorite, though everything could arguably be considered a favorite!), the oxtail, stew chicken, and jerk chicken - each dish was full of flavor, hot/fresh, and oh so satisfying! The curry goat was seasoned to perfection, the oxtail was meaty and tasty, the stew chicken meat was fall-off-the-bone (see photo), and the spicy homemade jerk sauce was out of this world! Anytime we go to the Poconos, we plan on being back here for sure. The sides consisted of plantains and cabbage, and both paired very well with each meal. Rice options are rice and peas or white rice (rice was delicious). We dined in and appreciated the large plates and overall attentive experience. After our meal, Shaine hooked us up with sweet potato pudding and Hennessy cake on the house! And I must say: Both hit the spot! The sweet potato pudding was like a slice of sweet potato pie with pudding consistency - it was hot and sweet, and it was exactly what I needed after the amazing meal. Hennessy cake gave me rum cake vibes (note: I don't drink alcohol and am far from a connoisseur) and it was also great! We want to thank Shaine for really going above and beyond to take care of our family. The Poconos community is blessed to have him and Caribbean Deck Cafe! Every 5-Star Review is well-earned/well-deserved, and you will NOT regret visiting. Very highly recommended!!!“

“On our way back to Philly from the poconos I decided to stop and try this Caribbean restaurant on the side of the road. I was curious to try because of the location and I love Jamaican food !The food was pretty tasty but I don't think it was worth the $30 that I paid for it. Oh and the place was very clean .“

“Great spot. everything I ordered was a first time experience and it rocked. Curry ox tail and collared greens. All new to a white boy from NE Philly.Also, the girl behind the counter was awesome. Didn't get her name. Light skinned, tall with a few tattoos on her arm. She ran that spot like it was her own. DEFINITELY going back next time I visit my son an ESU.“

“Oh. My. Goodness. I have not had authentic Jamaican food since I was in Jamaica 2 years ago. This is the real deal. Yeah the ordering is a little unconventional, but so what? Just text, they'll answer any questions you have.The large Jerk Chicken could definitely feed 2 people, except one of the people I was feeding was a teenager who eats jerk seasoning on everything. So obviously this went over really well. We got a huge amount of chicken and peas & rice, a nice side of steamed cabbage (even this was sooooo delicious) with a few fried plantains on top. What a deal for $17!“
