8 Best Caribbean Restaurants near Alameda

“The food is delicious but lacks consistency. I've ordered the same dishes multiple times and often it's different portions, different packaging, different cuts of chicken etc. The okra soup was super watery today and not slimy the way it should be. I will continue to order because everything else I've ordered has been great. I just wish they still had larger portions for the $25+ plates and a little more consistency.“

“Absolutely delicious, came in from out of town for work, everyone recommended this place. Great people, food is so good can’t wait to go back! Got Jerk chicken plate and oxtail plate with plantains. Owner and staff are so kind and welcoming. Juice is so good too!“

“I had the pleasure of performing a book signing at this welcoming Caribbean Restaurant & Bakery this past weekend. I was blown away by the artistic wall murals, the outdoor decorations and seating opportunities, the inflow of people of diverse backgrounds that came to satisfy their palette with the mouth-watering taste of Caribbean cuisine and tantalizing delicacies. I applaud Chef Ann and her Team for an outstanding job of keeping the Caribbean culture alive in this very quaint section of Oakland California.“

“The service was exceptional even through the phone; my husband went in and FaceTimed me so I could see the menu. Tonight we decided to give it a shot and I am mostly pleased. We ordered the combination plate which consist of curry chicken, jerk chicken and oxtail(s); callilou; beef patty; and coco bread. I enjoyed my food but my complaint is the way the meat was cut. They took drum sticks and I believe the breast (because it had all of those back bones) and diced it so there were bone pieces throughout. This made it difficult to enjoy and was dangerous for our 1 year old...It also hurt my tooth. I do understand that the price of food is sky high so you gotta do what you gotta do so I tried not to be too harsh with the amount of stars.“

“Had the jerk chicken with the rice and cabbage my girl got the plantains instead of cabbage and we both was in each other plate! Then the ginger lemonade was amazing but I love ginger, and the sorrel hibiscus drink also very dangerous. Great place to eat“
