I ordered an Uber Eats the first time, and was not pleased because my order was not on point. I called in and spoke with someone who assured me they’d make up for it, I scoffed and got off the phone; that was sometime in the past. Day …

Put in an order for 8 meals and it took over 40 minutes for them to prepare the already cooked food into plates and bags. Oxtails weren't done at 12pm just horrible my whole lunch period went by and I never got to eat my food pissed off and still hungry

Best oxtail I've had in NYC - nice and succulent. Also, one of the few JA spots that sells coleslaw. I wish the coleslaw was creamier, but still better than cabbage. Overall fresh and great.

I’m here almost once or twice a week. The food tastes just like back home, not watered down for the uncultured tongue. It may come off as a little pricey but the food is tooo good to complain for pricing. I wish I took pictures of all my other purchases. I gave 4 stars for atmosphere because they need a bigger spot.

I stopped by today and let me tell yallllll. I was greedy. I got the jerk chicken and the oxtails. The spices were on point, and everything tasted fresh. It’s also HALAL. It is a 100/10. I left satisfied and will be running back.

Feels like the best jerk chicken I’ve ever had… but I think some other reviews are valid that this place could be a bit slower even for takeout orders. I think it’s good if you have time to wait

As a Jamaican, I find it embarrassing that this restaurant is serving food under the banner of Jamaican cuisine. The fried chicken was completely dry — clearly sitting out for hours — and had no flavor or freshness. The soup was even worse: …

ALWAYS a pleasure to read the board to view the options. Even better to arrive before the favorites sell out. But, Best of all, there is a variety to select if your favorite has sold out. Authentic flavors to ease taste buds and send your …

The only thing that you could even say about this place, that’s bad is that it’s small. However, get your food and get out that’s the motto right. The food is super tasty. Great smells wonderful customer service right in your face. Easy to …

Island Crave’s ackee and saltfish is the real deal—flavorful, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. The ackee was well-prepared, the saltfish had great balance, and the veggies added a nice touch. Tastes just like home-cooked Jamaican food. A must-try for anyone craving authentic Caribbean flavor!
