If you are looking for standout flavors and textures, Caribbean Delights is definitely a place to try! The jerk chicken is full of flavor with a crispy outside and tender inside. Paired with the sweet mashed potato's, an absolute MUST to add to your meal, it's a sweet savory bite of the Caribbean. The sweet potatoes are more dense than traditional potatoes, but very creamy. When it comes to the sides, the beans and rice is cooked perfectly and has a subtle yet satisfying amount of seasoning, and the plantains are dreamy with a golden caramelized exterior - truly natures candy. Veggies are a great texture pairing with the meats and rice, as they are crisp and yet warm with spices. The service was not the fastest, but to no fault of the quality of assistance in making the order. They are simply a small business who is often short staffed, be patient. This is hands down the best Caribbean food in Omaha.

I always enjoy the drive from Iowa to get some yaad food. Well worth it!
I'm new in town & the oxtails were hitting. Perfect rice & beans with the cabbage growing on me! Decent amount of oxtails for $25 and the service was quick, patient, and understanding. Ample indoor seating with a nice ambiance and store to buy authentic goods. Drinks were amazing as well I got the bbq jerk chicken as well and it was fall off the bone, juicy, tender, and steaming hot! Be sure to check out my video review on IG _busybri

We were in town looking for something good. Based off the reviews we thought we'd give this place a try. Our experience was disappointing by far. The person working didn't greet us or even thank us for ordering. I'm not fact the only thing he said was "are you eating here?". Ok no big deal, but the food portion was small. I got 5 wings for almost $14. And my husband got jerk chicken. He said the flavor was there, but is convinced they used a frozen chicken breast and cut that in half. I'm glad everyone else enjoyed it, but coming from a bigger city with lots of Jamaican restaurants. We would recommend passing on this one.

Food was delicious but the serving size is a little stingy, but great atmosphere and nice community feeling.

This place is a travesty. Anyone who thinks the food here is good. Does not know what Jamaican food really tastes like. I got your oxtails. It tastes like stewed beef. Their rice and peas were overcooked. It's just a hot mess. I asked a woman if they had cocoa bread. She said no because she didn't feel like making it, It's on your menu, excuse me what? I was born and raised in New York around many Jamaicans my stepfather Jamaican. I know what Jamaican food is supposed to taste like and that garbage is not it.To the owner, you should be ashamed of yourself. You are the only representation of Jamaica in Omaha in Nebraska. You should be wanting to represent it and you're not. You're disgusting. I'm sick. Just thinking that that's what you're trying to represent as Jamaica.

I went in and grabbed a couple beef patties to go. These are possible the best on the go food you can imagine. Sweet, some spice on the end, and is held together perfectly. If you are looking for a quick bite to grab while working I recommend stopping by.
The food is amazing! It is so flavorful, with a kick of spiciness that will make your taste buds come alive like never before. My wife and I decided to try the goat and rice curry and ox tail. It was one of the best meals we had had in a long time. The service was good and the food was ready when they said it would be. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is looking for a an amazing Jamaican food.

I'm part jamaican by blood. I grew up with my grandfather who is from and is 100% jamaican. I am also from Connecticut and been to a pluther of jamaican restaurants in/on the east coast before moving to Nebraska.To be the only jamaican restaurant and have water down food, with small portions of meat, with an abundance of rice and cabbage is an utter insult to Jamaica. You're the ONLY jamaican restaurant in the state and you manage to fxck it up. How?I don't know if it's this state that lacks flavor or you assume that since you're the only Jamaican restaurant you can just insult the land and give us a bad name?I never ran a restaurant, but let me tell you this, if I open my own jamaican restaurant you will learn and be out of business.
