Caribbean Restaurants near Desoto

“Delicious oxtails and drinks.“

“Great food. Awesome service“

“Oxtails are the best I’ve had in Dallas so far! I’d give those a 5 star. Very tender and flavorful. Owner was so sweet and kind! Just wish portions were better for the price of the plate. Too much rice, not enough cabbage and meat. I’ll be back!“

“Awesome restaurant great food and really great and friendly service will be going back even though I live 35 minutes away“

“I was in town for a funeral, & a few hours later I wanted to grab some Caribbean food. I found Taste of Jamaica on Google & since it was 6 minutes from me, decided to try it.

First, as most Jamaican or Caribbean cuisine, it was a bit pricey. When I picked up the containers, they felt very heavy. When I opened them, I saw why. They PILE food into the containers. You get plenty of food to have enough leftovers to eat two more times.

I ordered the chicken pasta (very tasty, but don’t recommend if you’re lactose intolerant as it’s made with cheese), with a side of steamed cabbage & plantains, & the jerked chicken plate with rice & peas & steamed cabbage. The jerked chicken was spicy & tasty, according to my daughter. Neither of us could finish the food, it was just too much. It was definitely $50 worth of food.

The place is small, definitely more of an order your food & takeout type of spot. There’s a little space with a pool table & they also sell alcohol.

If I’m ever in the Dallas/Desoto area, I would definitely revisit.“
