The atmosphere makes you feel like you left the U.S. and landed in a sweet Havana town. Make sure to check out the colors, artwork and decor. Lastly, the absolute star of the show - THE CUISINE. Oxtail, Arroz Con Pollo, Empanadas, Tres Leches, I can literally go on and on... The prices are what you'd expect. Definitely make this a local destination place for your special occasions. ⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“WoahThat's my review... woah. I gave the Atmosphere 4 stars because it is tucked away behind a business park. I saw that the ratings here were good and drove through to try it. But wow, it's 20 minutes before the lunch close (Arrived at 1:40pm) and wasn't sure what I was getting into. The place is packed. That speaks for itself, 20 minutes before lunch close. The first thing that happened as we walked through the door was that we were greeted by the owner. He later went on to ensuring my food was brought out asap, as he saw my lunch buddy was already eating. He was doing this for all the guests that had any sort of wait.But then... the 'woah'. I love caribbean food. I do, I love oxtail, I love rice and beans, I love stewed chicken... but damn if this wasn't the best darn caribbean food I have ever had. I stole a fry from my buddy, great fry. But then I got my food and tried the stewed chicken... the flavors... the mac and cheese side... wow, that might be the best mac and cheese I've ever had. I could only get through half of it before the itis kicks in, but that's fine, I wanted to bring this home so my family could taste it.I overheard they are making a juice bar, the no sugar added kind. Owner was super friendly and chatted us up. But hot damn, that food.. was.. woah. It actually makes the fact that it's tucked away in the back of a business park that much better... it made it a hole in the wall, a diamond in the rough, a gem.Will be back.“

“It's carry out & delivery only place. Menu is basically 5 main platters with choice of chicken, goat or fish (shrimp).Tried Curry chicken with side rice & steamed cabbage. Portion is good with plenty of flavor. Pricewise, with tips it will set you for $20.Recommend: curry crazy - if willing to experiment, goat. Steamed cabbage as side.Parking: On street & behind the place, but busy.“

“Jerk chicken 10/10Brown stew chicken 9.5/10Beef patty 8.9/10Ive tried from many Jamaican restaurants and this is by far the best one for my liking. Flavor of Jerk chicken was out of this world. Packed with spices and flavors. Perfectly seasoned. I will try their curry chicken and oxtail next time.“

“All I can say is that the food was so delicious. I enjoy every bite of it. I got the Brown Stew Snapper with the yellow rice and greens. Let me tell you, that "Soursop" Juice is fantastic. Please try it. I will be back for more. It's a 5 Star for me. Peace & Blessing.“

“The place has some of the best food in the area, no doubt about it. Some of my favorite at the cassava leafs and the brown stew chicken. It is a Caribbean inspired business so. The snappy attitude at Caribbean restaurants infuses a delightful sass into the dining experience, adding a burst of vibrant flavors. While they may occasionally forget your drink, it only adds to the charm, turning every visit into a memorable adventure.“

“I don't usually leave reviews but I had to for this amazing Trini restaurant! I also don't understand why there is a single negative review because this classic, mom & pop Caribbean restaurant (so rare these days, we have to support !!! ) is a TRUE GEM in DC and is nothing short of... AMAZING!!!! My mom is half Trinidadian and it has been way too long since we had a real, authentic, delicious roti and other Trini food. And wow, were we impressed with Teddy's Roti Shop's food!!! :)We were immediately greeted by Hannah who is so genuinely nice and sweet, which is also hard to find these days - real customer service. She was warm, friendly, patient and took my order and my parent's order with a smile. Thank you for your hospitality, Hannah! :) Love the old school, no frills vibe because that usually means the food is good and there are no gimmicks. Feels like you're walking down memory lane. The restaurant is clean and well kept. A few tables and chairs but you come here for the food, right???Now on to the roti..............THE DOUGH ALONE is enough for a 5 star review!!!! The roti dough was soooooo soft and just perfection. I got boneless chicken for mine and the ratio of curried potatoes, juicy chicken even for white meat, and the flavor was just delicious!!! I've had roti that was dry and just nasty and this was NOT that! I'm not exaggerating. It was absolutely amazing. We all devoured our food with our eyes closed and a smile on our faces. And the cabbage????? lol. SOOOOO flavorful just for some simple cabbage! Devoured that, too!!! And you have to get the chicken and beef patties! Omg! There is curried potato in the chicken patty - enough said!!Run, don't walk to Teddy's Roti Shop!!! If you want to help support one of the few, rare, classic Caribbean restaurants left in DC, please do so because it's sad to see so many of them go. Delicious, delicious, delicious Trini food and happy, warm hospitality - this is your spot! Thanks again, Hannah and to all of you at Teddy's! We will be back soon and often!! :)“
