Caribbean Restaurants near Deerfield Beach

“This is the friendliest staff at a Jamaican restaurant that I've ever encountered. This restaurant got the memo and got it right. Everyone greets you with a warm welcome and a radiant smile when you enter the establishment.The food is great. The portions are more than adequate. Some restaurants will serve you a plate full of bones and fat, not here.I was today years old the first time I've had jerk chicken Fried Rice. Snapper, steamed , or escovitch is made to order and they never miss!Big shout out to : Rory, Barisa , and the entire staff! Big Shout to the Chef in the back!Show some love and be sure to tip! The service is worth every penny !“

“The restaurant is in a strip plaza. It is easy to spot. It isn't very large inside but it does have inside sitting. It is a casual place. As you first walk in they have a counter with the displayed food items. A menu and specials are listed on top. You order and pay at the counter and you get your food. This place is more of a takeout spot. I got Jerk Pork. It was very good. The portion was a good size. It tasted good. I got some fried balls that tasted great. I wanted more. The ackee and saltfish dish was good. I bought some patties they only had some left I wish I had bought more. I liked them. I must say I did like the food. The service was friendly. The staff welcoming and nice. This is a locals spot and so it must good.“

“My experience has been excellent in this place. I came one day with my mother and we tried one of their coffees, and the person who served us (Valentina) gave us good service, she is very attentive and was very kind to us. The truth is one of the best people to serve that restaurant.“

“My old coworkers always raved about this place so 15 years later I finally got a chance to visit. We were a party of 6 on Presidents' Day for lunch. The place is located in a strip mall facing Cypress Road. It's on the smallish side. The hostess had us wait about 15 minutes while our table was prepared. There are some chairs out front for this purpose. My daughter and I split the fish and chips. My dad ordered the fish roti. Judging by his longing gaze at my fish and chips, I quickly traded with him. The fish was bland but the roti with the curry base and bits of soft potatoes was very filling and tasty! My teenage son ordered the cheese burger and fries and wolfed it down with a root beer. There is a bar with a variety of domestic and imported draft beers on tap. My mom ordered a pint of Bud Light but it was too much for her to finish. The highlight of the menu (IMHO) is the homemade desserts. We all split a caramel cheesecake, a flan and a double coconut pie. Delicious! Our server was a college-age young man who is service oriented and friendly. Two thumbs up! BUT... If you are in a hurry to get a quick bite to eat this is definitely not the place. We were seated for 2 hours. If you have the time and the money, Calypso is an authentic old Florida establishment that is well worth the visit.“

“Superb service. Very friendly and helpful staff helped us figure out what to order and explained the dishes and combinations. All of the food was delicious. Suggest you order ahead of time since it does take quite a while for the food to be cooked, but that's good since it means the food is so fresh and cooked to order.“

“12/30/23 8:30pm We arrived after the peek dinner rush and were able to get right in. Our Waiter was great. Clam Chowder and Appetizers were Great with generous portions. We had Octopus and bacon wrapper scallops. Great Garlic bread. Main entrees were spot on and again generous portions. We had Jambalaya and the lobster pasta. The seafood was fresh and cooked to perfection. Had Key lime pie for dessert and that completed a great dinner. Prices were very reasonable and the serving time was perfect with no delays between courses. Definetly worth the drive from the beach resort (14 mins) easy parking. Casual Fun atmosphere. Its a Keeper!“

“I felt transported to Trinidad from the moment I stepped foot into the restaurant. I happened to visit on a very crowded Saturday afternoon and was in a rush, so I couldn’t wait for the kitchen to make roti, but I had the chance to try the doubles. These were perfectly made and come two to an order. Thankfully, I was splitting the meal because one double is plenty. I opted for everything on top and slight pepper - that came out perfectly. For an entree, I shared the curry goat and rice (the kitchen was out of roti at the time) with dal. The curry goat was piping hot, tender, and seasoned well. We happened to nab a table just as some folks were leaving. It was so nice to see a wide variety of people at the restaurant. I am already looking forward to my next visit!“

“We came here for some good Jamaican food and Reggae Roots did not disappoint. The restaurant was nice and clean and the service was out of this world. The biggest thing to me that stood out was the service my husband and I was treated as family not just vacationers. We really enjoyed the laid back atmosphere and I especially loved the conversation very attentive to their customers. 10 out of 10 for me we will definitely be back when we are in the area. Oh and the food was fresh and hot. Beef patties and cocoa bread and oxtail plate on point full flavor.“

“I haven't had food from Golden Krust in a long time. There was a quiet ambiance at the Oakland Park location as I entered. With adequate table seating, this location offered: * a variety of fresh patties/pastries/bread & buns * breakfast dishes/combo meals * pasta/soups/sides * cold beverages * lunch specials I was greeted by a female employee who dished out my order of brown stew chicken into a carry out container. It was served with rice & peas, steamed vegetables, and fried plantains. She also added enough sauce to the rice. The food looked delicious and tasted good as well. The chicken was nicely browned and was tender. The rice & peas was cooked to a soft consistency and had a peppery kick. The veggies was tender and flavorful, while the plantains was sweet. Gotta make time to visit Golden Krust more often to try their other dishes.“

“Today was my first time, I ordered a Jerk chicken meal, since I moved to Florida I have tasted so many Jerk chicken, this is the first place who knows and kept their Jamaican recipe, it was finger delicious ( might no be a word) but that how I describe it, well marinated with the jerk spice, even they gave me the extra jerk sauce, I didn’t even need it, that’s well made the dish was, so I gave the chef a 5 ⭐️, so anyone who want a great Jerk chicken should go there, even all of us might have our taste (spicy or none spicy) I believe you will like and don’t forget you need either water or one Jamaican ginger beer to cool it down. I will go back to taste the other dish on the menu, will keep you posted! Enjoy!“

“My favorite Lauderdale by the Sea restaurant. Visited twice over a weekend and wasn't disappointed either time. Their Jumbo shrimp is one of my favorite even though they are smaller than just a few years ago, but still some of the best I've had. Don't leave without a slice of Key Lime Pie, to die for!“

“Placed an order here during lunch. We didn’t order ahead of time and although it was peak time, wait time was decent. I had the oxtail, food was delicious and full of flavors. The lady at the counter took our order with ease, very nice and professional. Great service and amazing food.“

“Darlene is the best. I have been coming to the hotel for the last two years at least twice a month and the high point of my visit is the Drift for the food and the drinks. Darlene is the key component for both great drinks that we come up with and entertaining my students when I bring them to visit. She is a true gem for the facility and as a Titanium member I highly recommend eating and drinking here even with additional restaurants in plain view.“

“The food in this place is delicious! I have ordered multiple items on the menu and they have not disappoint! They have one of the best haitian mac and cheese I have ever eating. And they are super friendly and great customer service! I highly recommend!“

“Flavors Caribbean Restaurant’s Wednesday special features tender and flavorful curried goat priced at under $10, and it even includes a refreshing drink! This unbeatable deal allows you to indulge in the savory delights of curried goat, expertly prepared with aromatic spices, all while enjoying a complimentary beverage. It’s an exceptional opportunity to relish authentic Caribbean cuisine without exceeding your budget.“

“One of the best holes in the wall I’ve ever found. I’ve been in broward for over 20 years and this is some of the best Haitian food I’ve had. Worth the visit. I walked out the building and I got tired holding the damn container because it was so heavy. Excellent service, excellent food, 11/10 spot.“

“First time here.Was greeted with a smile unlike the other Jamaican chained restaurants here in Broward County. The decor was very nice. Loved the set of dinning tables it gave a rustic vibe especially with reggae music playing in the background . The menu had different options. My family and I had the jerk salmon with steam veg and plantains, jerk chicken breast with rice and peas and plantain, and lastly the one love wrap it has jerk,curry and brown stew chicken breast with rice, plantains, avocado and some other ingredients with a side of fries. The wrap was very filling at first I looked at it and thought to myself I'm not going to be full after eating it but I definitely was. The fries were very crispy and had a nice seasoning on it.Rice and peas were shelly (grainy) which is a good thing. Jerk chicken is super moist and seasoned well. Salmon was just a little over salted but still very good and not overcooked. Definitely, will definitely be back. Well done!“

“Great place came by to get roti and I wasn't disappointed. Great customer service cool peoples. Highly recommend it whether it's for a quick bite or with the whole family place looks clean and it feels authentic and it taste authentic“

“Delicious! I was passing by after a run and saw the flag. Had to check it out. I was greeted by a kind cashier who helped me decide on the large portion of j*** chicken (it was between the j*** & oxtail).When I came back to pick up my meal; the cook was there to greet me. You can really feel the authenticity. She opened my to-go box to ensure the meal was to my liking. She also got me an extra sauce on the side. The large j*** chicken plate came with about 1/2 a chicken, a salad, and rice & peas.the chicken was so flavorful, the rice and peas were exactly what I needed. The salad for meWas the appropriate portion, as I prioritize the protein. They overdelivered.Would highly recommend for an authentic, homemade meal. I’ll be back!“

“Been here twice and really like this place. The customer service is great. They're friendly and gave me a sample of my smoothie first to make sure I liked it before buying it. I've tried 2 smoothies there so far and both were delicious and made very well. I forget the first one I got but today I got the Supreme Green and like it a lot. Inside is a little small but enough room for 6-7 people to eat. I saw bathrooms down the hallway. Some small foot options in a hot case in the front. They have tons of smoothie options. Some bottled drink options as well. The pricing is on par with other places. I definitely need to come back and try one of their meals.“

“Our meal was unique and delicious. The menu is varied with seafood, ribs, and lamb mains, a number of good salads, appetizers, and desserts to choose from. Service was prompt and friendly. We would return when back in this area. We recommend getting reservations.“

“Just had a great Caribbean lunch sitting outside salt water brewing. The jerk chicken had the perfect combination of spice and sweet. My son loved the the wings. Super nice people and the brewery makes it even better. We will definitely be back“
