18 Best Caribbean Restaurants near Chesapeake

“I drive all the way from Norfolk and honestly, this isn’t even my first time — I come here a lot! FruitSplash Factory never misses. Every time I walk in, the customer service is warm, friendly, and consistent, and the food is always fresh and full of flavor.

The drinks are amazing, the food stays top-tier, and the quality never changes no matter when I come. I love that they really take their time with everything they make — you can taste the care in every order.

This has definitely become one of my go-to spots, and I’ll keep making the drive because it’s always worth it. Highly recommend! 💕“

“I'm so glad I found this place! The food is amazing - hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The rice and peas, oxtail, and cocoa bread are a must-try. Reminds me of home! The owners and staff are super friendly and attentive. Great service all around. If you're in the mood for delicious Jamaican food, definitely check this place out! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thanks Bobby.“

“Just don't use online ordering. Never works and end up making food after you waited and get to the restaurant.“

“My husband and I went yesterday to celebrate our 19th marriage anniversary, and were highly impressed with everything from the moment we walked in. We loved sitting at the curved booth too! Our server Larry was the best! He made sure my drinks were just the way I wanted… And they don’t short you alcohol- just saying! Lol, my husband has a higher tolerance than I and mentioned it. My husband got the whole fried red snapper while I created my own little sampler out of entrees. They were the oxtail empanadas, crab cake sliders and salmon bites. It was all scrumptious! I tried my husband’s red snapper and one of his shrimp- YESSSSS!! 🤤😋🙂‍↕️ I even made sure to bring even the sauces home with my little bit of left-overs. Looking forward to Father’s Day brunch next month. I’ve already made reservations. 🙂‍↕️ Thank you to all of the staff, even to the ones we didn’t meet who made our experience that much better.“

“I’ve been going to get my Jamaican food fix from Wah Gwaan for the last 4-5 months and I have to tell you, the experience is consistently amazing. The Owner is the sweetest, most personable and thoughtful chef I have ever met. The food is delicious, the rice is unlimited when you dine in and the music is just right. If you are in the Norfolk area, spending time at the outlet mall or grabbing some things from Costco… do yourself a favor and grab something to eat from this hidden gem. (It’s next to The North Face, you are most welcomed)“

“the food was very flavorful and hot when it arrived but the dark chicken was too small. I wish I could include a picture but I don't see that option. I ordered the dark meat jerk BBQ with cabbage and rice“

“This small grocery store has a surprisingly large and welcoming atmosphere, offering both takeout and dine-in options. It's my go-to place for hard-to-find Spanish and West Indian ingredients, including spices, vegetables, and canned goods that the larger supermarkets often lack. I also appreciate their buffet featuring a delicious blend of American and West Indian cuisine. I always make sure to grab a bag of their flavorful beef patties and coco bread before I leave.“

“I jerk, chicken eggrolls, very nice atmosphere. On Wednesday nights karaoke service was great.“

“Very polite staff. Very clean establishment. Fast service. Very loving environment.“

“Our new favorite seafood spot. Absolutely delicious! 😋“

“Shout out to Yummo Bucko! A party of 4 we all spent close to $100, please know a 15% gratutity is added to each person no matter the size of group. This place will fill up fast (small and quaint), opens at noon on Sunday. I checked online to see if reservations could be set up and didnt see where that was an option, upon entering we were asked if we had a reservation. Even though we didnt we were told to select wherever we wanted to sit.

Food ordered: Sampler - grits where stiff and saudage links appeared and tasted as if straight out of (brown & serve box)

Fried shrimp - seasoned well and fried perfect

Eggs Benedict (2x) - one with fried, one scrambled it comes with two crab cakes and 2 lamb chops (lamb chops were supposed to be grilled medium well. Lamb chops was a new born baby lamb chop and so tough to bite)

Side order of original French Toast - ( one piece of bread cut in half $6.00)

Lamb chop brunch meal - comes with 3 lamb chops, smothered in brown gravy (I missed that part on the menu, I just wanted med well grilled lamb chops which came out the same as above. The menu stated mashed potates came with; however received cheesy grits with lobster meat. NO on the grits and the lobster was OK).

Lemon Pepper wings to go - brought order out and gave to the wrong person with no bag, just plopped down and walked away.

4 Mimosas which was ok.

Will we try this place again??? - Possibly on another day, just not BRUNCH.“

“My daughter brought me for a birthday brunch surprise. This was my first time here. I love the atmosphere, nice music played, relevant program on TV. The food and drinks were reasonably priced. Our server was polite, knowledgeable and efficient. My granddaughter loves their homemade macaroni and cheese.
I had a wonderful time and I'll come back again.“
