"Ever dish is appetizing . I only finished part of the dish of curry chicken . I'm a little let down because I was expecting the curry chicken to have a lot more meat in the food container that it was in but the flavor of the chicken juices is so wonderful that I can already tell I'll be returning soon . However I'm sure the oxtails and goat plate will be liked and taste excellent too . I have no serious about the Caribbean meal it's amazing and all of my drinks came with the order . The cream soda in particular is so good that it may really make me get five of those and I was really pleased with every dish that was prepared and served so I'll be ordering five more of those cream soda without adding a dinner I'm going to be reheating some more meals later because I'm so full right now . Tropicana and the Caribbean grill will be my two favorite restaurants . I'll place separate orders for two meals and beverages from each of them so please don't go out of business I will always be there to support your company "
"Egusi soup with Assorted Meat it was very bland, it taste like cheddar cheese. It didn't have any spice. The meat was very chewy. I also got the Oxtail (Large) the oxtail flavor was good but the size of the oxtail was very small (chopped up meat with bones) with a big portion of rice, very small amount of cabbage. For the amount I spent I wouldn't order here again. I am very unpleased. "

I was able to save a little more than half a cup of the spicy rice to use for another meal (since it's packed with rice), and I finished the rest of the bowl. The beef suya, suya rice, plantain, corn salsa and the sauce were 10/10!!!! I absolutely have nothing else to say except the fact that I will be ordering this again multiple times during lunch time!"
"The fried plantain was absolutely delicious and the cucumber salad is excellent. This is my second time ordering from this establishment and the first time I ordered the rice noodles with double lamb and fried plantain, with the cucumber salad and suya rice. Everything was delicious and wonderfully seasoned. My only complaint is that I attempted this time to order the rice noodles again and instead of getting the noodles, I got rice with a double lamb, and not rice noodles with double lamb. But the food was still excellent and I would highly recommend the rice with double lamb."

The okra was delicious (made just like my dad's). Saved the jollof for later, but I took a bite and that was made very good as well. "
"The plaintain was dry and there was only 6 in the entire container, meaning i paid over a dollar for each plaintain. The Tilapia Fresh Fish (1 pc) that i received was better. The stew was slightly a bit too salty but the tilapia was cooked well and was sizable and fit the price."

"The Eru was absolutely good and the most the way the Gari foufou is made wad excellent not hard like stone as you would find in certain place in West Africa. Bravo to that magic cook who did this successfully
.
I would have liked the Eru with fish and shrimp.
I liked the chicken but to have the Eru with mixed chicken, smoked fish and shrimp with crab added will give the Eru a very good perfume as we have in Togo and Benin .
I have really enjoyed my food one order served two meals. Good value for money and it's healthy.
Can you have the Eru done with peanut oil instead ok palm.
Thank you for this comfort food so well anticipated today.
Best regards"
"I ordered the same thing two days in a row. I don't like that their meals are inconsistent. The only thing consistent was the rice. The second time I ordered I didn't get any plantains, the chicken in the Signature Chicken Meal was smaller and hard. The Sausage Rolls was hard as a rock. I couldn't even dig my nails into it"

"Way too much plantains and barely any meat. I ordered the 2 meat Chicken Bandera and Goat Bandera: chicken and goat. They offered 1 chicken thigh and 2 very small pieces of meat. But I was charged for extra meat. If I hadn't of paid extra they would have given me one piece of chicken. . So they put extra plantains in my plantain so I would think it's chicken.
They're not providing as much as they used to."

Thank you for the very prompt delivery !!"
"The fried chicken was extremely salty. When trying to eat just the insides, I found that the chicken itself tasted odd.
Some of the fries were limp and not crispy. Others were hard, but still not crispy.
I'll try other places for better fried chicken, thanks."

Curry Potato Side was bland and the texture was like a smoothie/baby food.
The Callaloo Side was BLAND AND too watery. it was like they prepared it for someone who had trouble swallowing. Both sides need a touch of salt."
