12 Best Caribbean Restaurants near Portsmouth

“The best around. Goat is excellent. Chicken is excellent. When we are delivering in the area we get excited because we know what's for lunch. When I'm in a 20 mile radius I will always stop by for the best food around. Portions are excellent and prices are fair“

“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.“

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

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

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

“Great service Great food. Real food that’s so flavorful the way it was intended. The Smoothies clearly separates themselves from competitors with no residue and sandy feeling on your tongue after eating. I like to rate food not only by its taste but how it makes you feel afterwards and let me tell you they get 5 stars for both. I’ve had a lot of smoothies and this is by far the best I’ve had and they have so many varieties. I thought I would never find a go to spot but I believe I found it in Fruit Splash.
I can’t wait to get back and try a new flavor believe me when I say you wont be disappointed .“

“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“

“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.“

“Very nice portion size. The plantain were perfect and the rice and peas were soft and nice with plenty of gravy. Curry chicken was delicious. Unfortunately people aren't buying local drinks, so they did not have any currently. I hope they find a way to bring back the sorrel juice or maybe add homemade ginger beer. The best food comes from the smallest places that are reasonably priced and they focus on the food. Very clean dining area.“

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

“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.“

“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.“
