I haven't been to many Caribbean restaurants in Gainesville, nor do I think there are many in the first place, but their food is pretty good! I'd definitely come back for more jerk chicken and coco-bread loaves. And I'm looking forward to trying the famous vegetable patties and oxtail next time. Generous portions at a low price, staff are friendly.
Veggie patties are great! Braised oxtail is good, but I prefer the Jerk Chicken :)
We followed our nose and ended up eating here for lunch. What a treat it was. The owner Chris and the rest of the crew were extremely accommodating as well as inviting. This is a one off, family owned restaurant with a limited specialty menu. This is a good thing because quality, efficiency and prices suffer when there are too many items on a menu. Too many restaurants make this tragic mistake. Having an extensive culinary background myself, I believe they are doing an excellent job. We ordered the large jerk chicken plate and a beef patty. The price was very reasonable and it fed two of us well. Please note I was anxious and ate some of the chicken before I took the picture. The large comes w/two drumsticks and two thighs.
My friend recommended that I try Caribbean Spice. I have to say it is Phenomenal! The Jerk Chicken was just right with the cabbage, rice and beans. Interior design was clean and cozy. Staff was super friendly and owner too.
New location. Same owner. Expanded menu. Delicious. First time I ever had goat was at the university ave location back in the late 80s. Every bit as good today as it was back then.
