Had the curry goat and it was amazing.

The cabbage and collard greens were both exemplary.

Highly recommend.

Limited seating available.“

“management, staff and food is AAA+++“

“Pictured is a small oxtail platter with cabbage from one of the many times I've gone to Brown Sugar. They never disappoint, I'm a huge fan of their goat roti, bread pudding, & doubles. If I could give this place more stars I would!“

“I had to kill time in my commute; I was right across the street, so I stopped it. I'm so glad it is the way I remember it to be 😄! This was my go-to in 2020 & 2021. Yummy food- but, NO FESTIVAL 🥲. GREAT SERVICE from the main woman that's been in the window for many years!!! I will be back!“

“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“

“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.“

“Excelente...“

“Came here on a Friday afternoon. It wasn’t crowded at all. The cashier was very nice. I got a large curry chicken with Mac & cheese & cabbage. It was soooo much food. 3 adults & a child ate from it & we were all satisfied. The food was super super good! I will definitely be back! Lowkey my new favorite spot! I’ll take this over McDonald’s any day!“

“The breakfast is delicious!! I got the eggs, potatoes and hot sausage and the fried shrimp and grits. I felt like everything was good but the grits could have used more time. The potatoes were some of the best homefries I’ve had in a while. The flavor on the fried shrimp will be something to go back for alone! So glad I tried it out. I will be back. Normally go for the curry chicken and cabbage but now I can go earlier for breakfast too!“

“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“

“Original don dodda or jamaician food around them parts... sw/s Philadelphia

“palava sauce is incredibly delicious“

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

“Just upsets me that I’m never able to get food from here as much as I would like because the store doesn’t stay open later and they aren’t open on Saturdays. I love when the man is there he cooks everything perfect and his customer service is amazing along with everyone else who works there. Best in the city.“

“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.“

“Omg. I love this place! As y'all know I'm hooked on the red snapper. So fresh seasoned to perfection the perfect sauce light sweetness flavor on point and not too spicy. I was hesitant about a stew fish at first because I like my food cooked well but was able to order it well done and it's been my go to since. If you want chicken the jerk chicken is great and this is the only place i can eat all the beans and rice and cabbage . I also ordered Mac and cheese and that was good also . I ordered last minute and Ms.Tiny came through for me and cooked my order!.RED SNAPPER OF COURSE . and I also got a tuna salad..I didn't try my salad.yet
.like who does that ??? Make your order near the closing time . She did ..
Lol...You gotta.order here PERIOD!!!“

“OMG They have AWESOME Oxtail. I went to this Jamaican restaurant for lunch and I ordered macaroni and cheese and corn bread and I noticed they had oxtail on their menu and I told they lady who worked there that I never had oxtail and I was told by my family and friends that oxtail is so good so the the lady asked if I wanted to order a platter I said no because I already brought fried chicken and I just want the Mac and cheese and corn bread to eat with my chicken so she was kind enough to ask me if I wanted to sample the oxtail and I said yes she then hand me a small cup with oxtail and gravy. OMG that oxtail was tender and falling off the bone. It tasted like beef stew and the gravy was AWESOME so awesome that I was licking the gravy off my fingers. I will definitely be ordering a oxtail platter from this restaurant in the near future. 😋“

“A friend who live in West Philly brought me a oxtail platter with rice & peas & cabbage. The oxtails were tender and flavored well. The whole platter was delicious. Wish I lived nearby.“

“You definitely need to check this out if you miss home cooking. One of the best I’ve tried that actually tastes like Jamaica food.💕“

“They have some of the best Jamaican food in West Philly. Love their curry coat and curry chicken. Not a big fan of their mac and cheese but everything else has been good to me. I come here often and they give good portions every time! They do run out of plantains and beef patties early“

“I had the oxtail platter with rice/gravy and greens. The greens were kind of tasteless but the oxtails, rice and gravy were phenomenal. I usually go to Ron's bcuz i live close by but I happen to be in southwest visiting someone and decided to try Kingston 11. Im glad I did. It did not disappoint and will be my new spot“

“I went to the food truck at 34th and Market and the food was absolutely delicious!! I had the fried fish with jerk sauce, mac n cheese, and candy yams. Seasoned very well! And the lady serving was pleasant and personable. I devoured my platter lol“

“Mr. Jerk has some of the best food I’ve had! The jerk chicken was perfectly seasoned and delicious. The mac and cheese was creamy, the yams were amazing, and the rice and peas were full of flavor. On top of that, the service was top-tier—friendly, fast, and welcoming. I will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!“

“great service. kind professional and good authentic Jamaican products“

“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!“

“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 ordered Mac n chz, rice and peas with stew chicken, I received my order in less than 10 minutes, the food was amazing, the looks of the store it self, had me wanting to turn back around and walk out, however, it was highly recommended, do I tried it and glad that I did“

“The food is hot, fresh and delicious. They package everything write in front of you and it's clean. My favorites are the rice and beans, cabbage and fried chicken. Everything has a good flavor. I like the fish gravy over the rice (a must try). The staff is very nice and friendly.“

“Thanks so much, went just before closing time. Owner and staff were so kind, patient and courteous. And OH MY The FOOD was so tasty. Some great Jerk chicken and perfectly seasoned fried fish ever!! No skimping, extra gravy and loads of plantains. We'll be back 4 sure“

“Food is really good the sweet and sour chicken and the vegetables fried rice is old school Chinatown quality. The owners are very friendly and hard working. They have a large variety of drinks to quench every thirst pallet. The area is a little Philly war zone so a bulletproof vest maybe needed hopefully not. All in all I would rate it 5 hood stars ⭐️“

“I had curry chicken rice & peas, cabbage and plantains my food was great & I would get it again. My husband and mother in law had pepper steak rice & peas, cabbage the steak was so dry it was terrible very disappointing especially for the price. My daughter had stew chicken rice & peas, cabbage and it was just nasty she didn’t even eat it. I have always heard good things and finally decided to try it, it’s gonna be a NO for us. The guy that took my order was extremely nice. I made a mistake ordering, he told me no way, you’re gonna get your food how you want it & started over, no attitude or no hassle that was appreciated.“

“I ordered Oxtail with rice and beans, and Mac and cheese for my little one. Normally I don't eat Mac and cheese but I taste it before giving my little one and the whole platter was superb, very fresh and tasty. I would definitely order there again.“
