“I was craving some good seven curry and then i happen to see a post on fb, I went to this restaurant and they served it in a leaf!!! That’s right the way we eat it back home. I must say that was one of the best seven curry I had …. I can’t wait to go back and would definitely recommend for anyone.“
“Visited with a party of 10 for a birthday dinner staff was very attentive and quick with the service. Prior to going I had been in contact with Omar who took care of everything for me. Food was great drinks very good and music was very good.“

“If you are looking for amazing Jamaican food AND outstanding customer service, look no further! The owner only sells quality food and it is a family owned business. Amoya (hope I spelled it right) is mostly there serving the food whenever I go and she is an absolute pleasure to interact with. I can honestly say they serve their food with LOVE and GRACE. Money spent here is money well spent.“
“Catered large Trays Mini Cassava balls Salt Fish Cakes with the sauces Tamarind and Mango . Delicious delicious delicious . All our guests could not stop talking about these appetizers. OMG JERK CHICKEN TO DIE FOR - Spicy and tender N JUICY leaves you wanting more. Again all our guests chattering about how delicious the jerk chicken was. MAC N CHEESE for the Vegetarians flavorful cheesy n delicious . My new go to for friends and family gatherings.“
“I called the restaurant today on my daughter’s birthday (2/26/24) to ask for a table for 5 people including two children. I was told there’s not enough seating for everyone but they would gladly accommodate us at the event space next door. I agreed. My family arrived at around 6 and the two ladies took our order and Yvonne took a few minutes to prepare the table for us. When she led us into the room we were so delighted and astounded! The place was so beautifully decorated, and she managed it in a very short time! All the food was delicious! She made my daughter feel so special, she danced with the girls and helped cut the cake! I was very lucky and blessed to have been given this wonderful memory! It was such a pleasure to meet Yvonne, she is so sweet and has such a good heart! I will definitely be back again soon!Dietary restrictions: Totally Vegan and plant based menu.Kid-friendliness: Yvonne was so sweet with my girls.“
“Omg one of the best customer service experience I have ever experienced in a HAITIAN restaurant. USUALLY I don’t like going into haitian stores because of the rudeness , but not this place, I was greeted by pops who took my order and he was just a breath of fresh air ,and amazing , great conversation , I would have ended up buying everything there if I stayed any longer lol ..he wanted me to taste everything .. from KREMAS to a taste of his macaroni .. he wanted me to try everything lol ? .. I Bought some patties and a fish lunch special .. it’s an amazing thing to have a lunch special and still get great quality food .. small fish for 20 dollars was a really good price came with rice and plantain. I love the little piece of lemon they had with my fish , it says they pay attention to little details, even with a lunch special.. my patties were properly coded since I bought a variety of different kinds. I GIVE THEM 10 starts .. food quality was great and flavorful as well. .. can’t post fish pic because by the time I wrote this review I devoured the fish lol.. sorry.“
“Excellent & professional service. Your warm welcome and generous accommodations were greatly appreciated. Highly recommend. Authentic & delicious food. The atmosphere & ambiance were exceptional. Special acknowledgement to the owner & my dear friend, Naala & her professional & courteous staff, Shari, Jermaine, Nick & the entire Dunns River Lounge Staff in Rockville Centre, NY“
“First time getting food from them. Honestly the first time I ordered(via Doordash) a month ago they ran out of oxtails and cancelled my order. This time I ordered Oxtails, Jerk Chicken Empanadas and Mac & Cheese via Seamless to pickup. They cancelled the jerk and Mac. Pretty disappointing.But besides that the oxtail were meaty and flavorful. The sauce tasted tomatoey which was fine. Rice & Peas were fine as was the cabbage.Id get food again I just need them to either have food advertised or edit their online menus to what they actually have.“
“I’ve revisited this restaurant after 15-20 years.Service was excellent, special thanks to Seeta & Rebecca. Seeta took our order & was very particular to go over all special requests & she delivered just that. Awesome job.Would have been nice if they had chopsticks. ?Can’t wait to go back for the pepper shrimp & BBQ Pork.“
“Best doubles and aloo pie I’ve had in New York. Very fast and friendly staff… restaurant is very neat and clean and the owner Mike is very friendly and accommodating…. Definitely worth trying I drive 30 minutes especially to come to this spot and suprisingly was very cheap for 2 doubles and aloo pie with channa and a mango juice was around 10 bucks. Definitely will be my goto spot for budget friendly snack…. Thanks for the great service…Vegetarian options: Big variety of vegetarian dishesKid-friendliness: I didn’t see or bring kids with me but definitely family friendly“
“I did take out so I can't talk on the ambiance but as far as service goes they have excellent service and great timing. The curry goat is okay it wasn't spicy enough but the meat was seasoned and cooked thoroughly. It's definitely a look if you like medium hot curry.“
“Expect for there to be a long wait, but trust me...the food is worth ANY wait. Hands down, the best roti around.Vegetarian options: As a vegetarian, the Potatoes and Chana with the Dhal Puri Roti on the side is my go-to order. Add a little Bertie's original pepper sauce and thank me later!“
“I took a bite of my jerk chicken and I can feel the love in the food! wow it’s absolutely delicious. I had the jerk chicken, rice and peas, and plantains. I will be absolutely coming here again. I’m putting this place into my permanent rotation!“
“Service via Everytime I visit Queens, I make it a point to visit Singh's to get some good, authentic Trini food. From what I recall, pre-Covid Singh's was a lively restaurant where soca played through the speakers, a variety of Islanders would be liming and enjoying the vibes, and there was trini food and snacks galore. From Trini Chinese fried chicken, to doubles, to pone, chubby, shandy, and everything else that you'd want to enjoy. Since my first visit, I've remained loyal to Singh's.My last visit this past weekend, I didn't have the time to get over to their location, so instead I ordered on UberEats, grimacing at the $6.99 delivery fee. I placed my order at 6:30 a.m., since they open at 6 a.m. and received my order within an hour, delivered by a very polite young man. The food was packed very well - there was no spillage which I was expecting from the curry.I ordered pholourie (which came with TWO tasty tamarind sauces), 2 doubles, and one boneless chicken dhal puri roti. Everything tasted just like I remembered it to be. I packed some to take back with me to COS to extend the pleasure of the meal. Still, there was minimal spillage of the curry throughout my flights, so that was a huge win.Singh's thank you for your authentic Trini cuisine. I look forward to visiting your establishment when I next return.“
“Recently tried some jerk chicken from here. It was so flavorful and full of spice! The workers were very pleasant and also gave me a sample dish of some other food they serve to try out which was their chicken chow mein, oxtail, cook up rice and fried chicken. Everything was Amazing!!! I definitely recommend here!“
“The staff and owners were friendly and engaging and happy to help us decide what to order. We were treated like family even though we were visiting for the first time.I had the whole snapper with creole sauce and black rice and my wife had the chicken with creole sauce and yellow rice with peas. Starting with a huge fresh salad that we shared and ending with a complimentary slice or two of traditional cake, every part of the meal was a delicious treat.The whole red snapper was cooked to perfection with herbs and thinly sliced peppers and onions and floating in a plateful of rich, fragrant sauce. The rice was piled high on its own plate and served with fried plantains. It was all accompanied by a small side bowl of spicy-hot relish made with pickled cabbage and scotch bonnet peppers. The chicken my wife had was tender and juicy and served with the same creole sauce.The food was absolutely delicious and what made it more special was the obvious care and love that went into the preparation and welcoming way that it was served. When people really care about their food and share it genuinely and generously, it draws you in and brings real happiness.Thanks so much for a perfect meal!“
“Ok so, this is gonna be long. Ok so I'm a Jamaican and usually stay away from Jamaican restaurants because lately they seem to be cutting corners. I'm a chef and from the old school of real Jamaican cuisine. That being said, the food here has flavor, some dishes are way better than others. The thing I don't like, is the outrageous prices for such small plates. I get it, people gotta make money but when you give your customers a little more, they come back often. Also, the waitress is nice but need training on timing. Bring utensils first and if its a couple, bring both meals together, not bring one plate then 10 minutes later you bring the other.. I like the mature Reggae music played while eating on Friday evening. Oh a live band at 10pm but different genre of music so could be socca , reggae or whatever . I prefer the reggae band. Now after the band finished, the DJ ticked me off. I hate when him cut upp the music after 5 seconds. People were upset about that. Dj could be ok but have no clue how to watch the floor. If see mature people, run the music n stop the cutting up and play the song Dem. Chu man. Me vex and leff. Hellooooooo. adults spend money suh if music nice people wi spend cause Dem dance and sweat. Ok so, i went into details n hopefully the owner reads this and edit as necessary cause my presence can expand your establishment if you listen. Great location , with some adjustments this place could sell aff. I do this for a living, go into businesses, assess whats , great and what needs adjustments and make suggestions. Get it done !! Place can be better and a winner with some twerks Good luck!!?“
“We met for a birthday bite at West Bar and Lounge. Don't let the location fool you. It may not be as lucrative as dining in Soho, but it's still a great neighborhood, and it's quite easy to get there.When you first walk in, it's dimly lit, so don't complain. Your eyes will adjust. We went in a few minutes after it opened, so you'll catch the staff still prepping for the day.We were greeted by a waitress and seated. We ordered our drinks (they were great! I recommend the hurricane) while we viewed the menu. We decided on the crab dip with chips and crab legs for appetizers. For the main course, we ordered ribeye steak with smashed? (mashed) potatoes and broccoli and lamb chops with wild rice and asparagus, and a side of Mac cheese. Believe me when I tell you, the food was absolutely delicious ?. Every morsel was a delightful bite.Thank you to our waitress for great service. The bartender for outstanding drinks and the chef for the amazing food.“
“Never underestimate the power of good food. Eating delicious food can be a life changing experience. I'm not usually the type to write a review on a restaurant, but I have to undoubtedly admit medina halal was of the best restaurants I have ever experienced. From amazing service to delicious food the list Carries on and I would highly recommend for you to go there whilst you’re in Worthing. Your truly Devendra Bishoo“
“I was in the area. I googled this place and I wanted to give it a try. I was very impressed with the rice and peas and shrimp which had some heat to it. Not overbearing and very enjoyable mixing it with the rice. The lady who served me was very nice and I appreciated my meal I will comeback again.“
“Went for the oxtail, but they were out of them early. I guess that means they are goid. I like the goat curry. It is flavorful with a bit of bite. I like really spicy, but my stomache no longer likes spicy. Getting old sucks. This would make a good lunch gor me. Those that want more spice, ypu can always add their habernero hot sauce.They only have room for a few seats if you want to dine in.“
“The Food deserves the hype it receives. The oxtail beef patty with mac&cheese on cocoa bread ? so good! I also has the saltfish and bake, again another ?The owners sister was running the show and she was extremely helpful and cool , overall 10/10!“
“Probably one of the best Cuban restaurants I have ever been to. definitely my go to they messed up my drink today but they usually don’t mess stuff up. If you’re in the area check them out.Wheelchair accessibility: Outdoor seating and ramp going in“
“You looking for a Caribbean spot, check out 12.6. I had such an amazing time.. The place looks good. I came in after work on a Friday with a couple of friends. The bartender omg ...Super friendly and the drinks.. let me tell you, yes it definitely was a punching. The food was great the jerk snapper and jerk salmon pasta, fried shrimp, calamari, wings and the rum punch , yesssss......Definitely visit this place. Big shout out to the Bartender Shorn for providing excellent service.“
“I was just in the restaurant and the server was very helpful helping me make up my mind I ordered the king fish it was very delicious she was professional and very present I now have a new favorite restaurant I highly recommend this establishment and support our small minority owned “
“I think Mya's Bar & Kitchen is an underrated spot. The food and service have not disappointed me yet and the space is an overall vibe. I've gone here several times and whether it's the honey shrimp, oxtail tacos, mac and cheese as well as sorrel drinks...Mya's Bar & Kitchen brings me joy. It's a well needed spot to the neighborhood and I hope more people come out to support this place. I don't want to see it go.“
“They are very well clean . All the food is delicious I've had almost everything in that restaurant. I truly enjoyed the eggball , fried rice , oxtail , stew snapper , and all the veggie, breakfast . The customer service is great very friendly people I would recommend this place not only by it's the area but they are very clean .“
“Came here on a rainy Saturday night around 5:30pm, there was a happy hour until 7pm, which I love, most places don't have weekend happy hours. I got the rum punch ($8) it didn't taste like a rum punch but it was still strong & sweet. I had the curry chicken, rice & peas & steamed veggies, I enjoyed it but wish it had more spice. The Playlist was playing old skool reggae, hip hop & r&b. The bartender Keyosha was attentive & friendly. They have hookah after 7pm for ($35) , I shall return to try the hookah & red snapper. There's a lounge side & a take out side. This place is also very clean & easy to get to, driving wise & MTA.“
“First time coming from upstate,ny with my partner’s PreBirthday surprise dinner & Drake concert and let me just say we were both impressed with your place, the attentive waitress/bartender named Arielle. The food was amazing & drinks was on point. I had the classic oxtails & my partner had the lobster tail dish. We can definitely come again.“
“I’m from VA and I was at my brothers home for Thanksgiving in Jamaica Queens. The day of me leaving to go back home I wanted some authentic Jamaican food. Here it was!! The food is amazing, service is great. It’s very clean. I got the Oxtail with rice and all I can say WOW!! While I was there I asked the staff member ackee and of course she had it with fried dumplings. That was amazing ?! This will be ato go place for me every time I visit my brother. Thank you for your great hospitality. God bless you.“
“My favorite spanish food restaurant. Food is delicious, service is excellent, alcoholic drinks to die for, as soon as you walk in u are costeously greeted! We always go mid afternoon because we go with our little one but if u go late afternoon-night u will find the adult astmosphere u r looking for. Ppl say the restaurant is pricy but to me is worth it, the food quantity is great and delicious, can't order appetizers bc if i do i wont b able to finish my food. Overall go try it u wont regret. Esther is very nice and corteous, they all are but Esther is my #1 girl“
“Let me start by saying this the atmosphere was beautiful!!! The waitress Kadijah was amazingly sweet! I went there yesterday with my girlfriends and was instantly greeted by her, I was there at 4pm and the restaurant was busy at the time we got there so I was shocked that we had such fast and amazing treatment! We ordered cocktails and saw that it was being made by Kadijah herself, her “bahama mama” cocktail was to die for, I had 3 myself!! I would come back to Sheriff Street just for her to serve me… she is a sweetheart!!! The food was also incredibly delicious!!!! 10/10“
“Glad I fought this gem, food was delicious! We got the curry goat with rice and peas, veggies and sweet plantains, a small porridge, side of mac and cheese and a piece of red velvet cake. Everything was super good, the ladies were very nice. The restaurant is clean with NO funny smells. Cant wait to go back and taste the rest of the menu.“
“Had the best experience this evening! Our server Jessica was so pleasant and took care of us! She was so kind and attentive. Overall the food was delicious and excellent service. Definitely recommend coming here for authentic Guyanese food! Was worth coming all the way from Toronto!“
“I'm a customer of this place since the 90's. The quality of the food is great, with portions for leftovers if not devoured in one sitting on an extremely hungry day. Love and longevity is put into the food that's made for the masses.“
“This is a business we have been patronizing for years as born West Indian restaurant. Finding a authentic West Indian restaurant is difficult over the last few years. The price has increased over the years but the cuisine is constant and delicious. We love the whole fish, soup, the rice and peas, rainbow cake, if you’re in the mood for a cocktail the bartenders are very excellent. Historically we would have the jerk chicken pork but we no longer eat chicken or pork but if you are in love her of that chicken and pork is delicious. If you’re in Jamaica Queens, are you just in the mood for some of them to Jamaican food the door is the best spot for brown stew fish, excovitch fish.“
“The jerk pork is SO good! The best around. The mac and cheese could use a little more seasoning but is good too. It's more similar to black american baked mac and cheese than what you normally get at Jamaican spots (which is a good thing imo).“
“I love Jay 's food at 13509 lefferts blvd Ozone Pk11420 his curry chicken,Doll Puri very, very soft and tasty you dont even have get curry you can eat it just like that and the food is always fresh and tasty come in and tell them Rose send you see everyone “
“The best West Indian food in the Bronx in my opinion.Everything is cooked and seasoned well, can order anything off the menu and it will taste good.It is reasonably priced, customer service is great, there is a reason it has been a neighborhood staple for so long.“
“I LOVE this restaurant. I think its the Best Trini Spot in the Bronx. as far as Caribbean restaurants... I prefer them over Lash. Its Family owned, and the son is the cook...the food is always Good!! and the employees are polite. the Elderly father is the star with humor and personality. He provides conversation and always humorous personality. I love the fact that they have treats and other goods that are Caribbean, it gives me a taste of my childhood. They have no problem adding extra sauce when asked!! lolRun don't walk to Jenny's!!“
“Being an older Hispanic woman I don’t really eat outside. I was raised to eat at home. I walked by and was given a flyer by the owners daughter. I came back later on and decided to try. I tried the oxtail with rice and peas and cabbage. The food was rich in flavor . The service was exceptional and the owner was very friendly. I will definitely be returning.“
“My wife was in the mood for some jerk chicken and decided to give this place a try and since are in the vicinity. Now we ordered jerk chicken with one side (picked the homemade rice and beans) to go for $22. While I was in the mood for boned chicken, they only serve boneless but at least it was thighs...so that's good. Let me tell you, the jerk chicken pack quite some heat...which was fine. The chicken was tender and it didn't taste as if it was reheated from a microwave. While it was not the best jerk chicken we ever had, it definitely has its own spin to it. The rice and beans were stellar and complimented this dish. All in all, we kinda expected something mediocre but glad to see that it exceeded our expectation. Based on today's visit, I would give it a 4 stars.“
“They did not have what I order but called and still fulfilled our order. I wish I took a picture of the food! Ordered the boneless jerk chicken, oxtail, rice&peas & Mac and it was delicious. Got sweet sauce and oxtail sauce on the rice. Tropical juices good too. Will order again!“
“The trick with this place is you have to catch them around lunch time when that jerk chicken comes right off the grill and ask for the extra sauces on the side to take this experience to the ultimate level yummy! Also just a heads up they make great soups as well I've tried the chicken soup and others as well great on a cold day to help warm you up on the insides! Last but not least the jerk pork is where it's at as a nice side to your Oder to add a little more flavor and variety to your dish enjoy!“
“I came across Tamarind Island's Insta page and it had me drooling so I knew I had to try it. Arriving on a Saturday afternoon, it was bustling and people were in and out. There are a few tables to eat at as well as a couple of seats by the window. I can't say I ever had Trinidadian food before, but the one thing I knew I had to get was the doubles with chickpeas, because that's what first pulled me in. It was fantastic. I'm not sure I ever had chickpeas so flavorful and yummy. The bread was light and pillowy. Also tried a roti with chicken curry. The roti itself was a large portion served along side a plate of chicken curry with some potato. Another wonderful delight. The chicken was tender and the flavors, just so good. I had to stop myself from ordering more, but I am looking forward to going back for more doubles and some other dishes to try.“
“Went here to start off my birthday weekend and I received the VIP treatment! The owner came out and introduced his self and mingled with my friends and I. The music was nostalgic and at a certain point a DJ came out. The server was so sweet, patient and helpful when it came to the menu selections. Will definitely come back“
“My friend held a Christing after party at island fusion today 9/16/23. The staff was very friendly and courteous. The food was amazing the Mac n cheese boom all the food was so good would recommend this restaurant. Thank you guys for your amazing “
“My reservation was for 6:15 but my show finished early so I arrived at 5:30 and they were able to accommodate my wife and I. Service was quick. Waiters were very attentive. I noted in my reservation that it was my wife's birthday and they automatically placed a candle on her dessert, played special birthday music and the entire restaurant sing along. It felt super special. The food was amazing, very tasty. My wife had the ribeye and I had the jerk chicken. I ordered a vegan dish for my daughter to go and she loved it. I'm def coming back.“
“They need to make more breakfast, you have to rush there to get it before it runs out, by 9:30am. At least make enough for the people until 11:00, everyone clearly loves their breakfast but it’s never enough. I overheard women on line complaining about this, as well as my mom.“
