    We had a work function catered by Allan' Jamaican jerk shack bus. They were on time and the food was amazing. Very authentic to Jamaican cuisine. Quite tasty and served very fresh, great temperature, and very satisfying for all of our associates. Incredible business person, and great to work with. Would recommend to all companies for any associate functions. A++ Experience.

    Oviedo on the Park occasionally has mega food truck events that invite in dozens and dozens of food trucks to come and vie for our patronage. I love these events, and I try to never miss one. A recent one we had had Allan's Jerk Shack, and it instantly caught my eye. This brightly colored school bus would catch anyone's eye. I browsed the menu, and it was really simple, which I love. No frill. Which means the food was probably really good. I ordered the curry chicken with two sides, the mac salad and the rice & beans. Oh man, it was delicious. Tender, fall off the bone meat that was very well seasoned. I like to get all the meat off the bone immediately and mix it all up with the rice. The rice and beans were very well seasoned. Well-cooked. No issues. The mac salad was pretty interesting. It was like a combination of mac 'n' cheese and the mac salad you find at Publix. Which doesn't sound great, but it was great. It was nice and bright and added a little moisture to the whole meal. I liked it. Overall, I'm very glad I chose Allan's. The meal was a great value, and I will probably come back to try his other meats the next time I see him in Oviedo.

    Pros: I'm glad that they came all the way to Oviedo for our food truck night. Not a lot of Caribbean food trucks around town. It's good to see something different rather than the usual stuff. The "truck" is a giant blue school bus. Talk about eye-catching. Lol. Cons: Maybe it was to cater to a more mild clientele, but I felt like there was lack of seasoning. I have had curry chickens before that blew my socks off. This one was just a little lacking. Tips: Get the rice and beans as a side. It was actually seasoned pretty nicely. Not spicy. Just with flavor.

    I am always impressed with the food from Allan's. I usually eat from the food truck when it comes to my apartment and I get the same thing every time - curry chicken with fries and rice & peas (pictured below). They hook you up with a box of delicious food that tastes home cooked and made with love. You know it's going to be good when the box is leaking a little hahahaha. The price is great for how much food you get AND the service is friendly :)

    Sherry's Trini Flavors had me feeling like I accidentally stepped through a secret Caribbean…read morewormhole and landed somewhere between Port of Spain and a gas station parking lot in Florida. The giant NOW OPEN banner was flapping like it personally invited me, and the storefront painted in bold Trinidad flag colors looked ready to hand out citizenship papers with every order. I walked in thinking I'd grab a quick bite. Rookie mistake, one look at the doubles and suddenly I'm ordering five. Then I'm calling my aunt and cousin like it's a family emergency: "Allyuh want doubles? Because these looking SERIOUS." Next thing you know, I'm walking out with ten doubles like I'm catering a small festival. And let me tell you, these doubles? Soft bara, perfectly seasoned channa, pepper and tamarind sauce hugging everything like a warm Caribbean auntie. I've basically been on a doubles‑only diet since, and honestly, I feel spiritually aligned. I even ate one cold from the fridge and it still slapped. That's when you know it's real. Then there's the boneless curry chicken with buss‑up‑shut. Pure comfort. The kind of meal that makes you close your eyes after the first bite. The potatoes were soft enough to spread on a cracker, the channa was rich and earthy, and the chicken tasted like somebody's grandmother was in the back whispering, "Put a lil' more seasoning, nah." The buss‑up‑shut was fluffy, torn, and ready to scoop up every drop of curry like it had a mission. And the pepper sauce? Flavorful. Respectful. Not trying to fight me or send me to the ER. A rare and beautiful thing. The place is clean, the parking is plentiful, and the staff has real Trini accents that instantly make everything feel more authentic. Even the way they say "Next!" has rhythm. Next time, I'm calling ahead for dhal phourie, because clearly this place does not miss and I'm not risking it selling out. If you see me there again, mind your business! I'm probably ordering another ten doubles and living my best life.

    Since moving from New York to Florida, I've been on a serious mission trying to find good Trini…read morefood, because anybody who knows knows not every place serving roti is actually serving roti. I happened to find Sherry's Trini while I was in Orlando for an exam and decided to give it a try. I ordered the potato and channa roti with pepper sauce on the side. The potato and channa was yum, well-seasoned. The pepper sauce was everything I needed. Now for the roti itself. If you're accustomed to a good dhalpuri or buss up shut, this one might leave you wanting a little more. It wasn't bad, but it lacked that soft, delicate, flaky texture. The filling was carrying the meal more than the roti did. Overall though, I appreciated finally finding a place in Florida serving Trini food that actually tastes like somebody put some love into it. It's hard to come by down here. While the roti wasn't exactly what I was hoping for, the potato and channa definitely satisfied the craving and I'd still come back to get some other fixes.

    It's Easter Friday so I was craving carrot cake. This was place was a bonus to order from since…read morethey also offered regular food that I could get dinner with my dessert. Plus, they were on Uber Eats and I didn't feel like going out. Ordered my usual Jamaican dish - brown stew chicken with rice and peas and vegetables. Started out with the carrot cake - 10/10. Cake was moist, cream cheese icing was creamy and not too sweet, a good amount of carrots in the cake, a big portion sliced in half for sharing, and an affordable price. Brown stew chicken - 5/10. Ok flavor, but the chicken was kind of dry. I would have liked extra gravy but was unable to make that special request. Rice and peas - 10/10. Rice was good, nice hint of coconut milk, peas cooked perfectly. Veggies - 2/10. Bland AF. Everything except for the cabbage tastes like it came from a can. Plantain - 2/10. Bland, kinda dry. Would only order from here again for the carrot cake.

    We stopped in on a weekend morning for breakfast. We ordered the Ackee and Saltfish breakfast meal…read morewhich came with a choice of boiled or fried dumplings. We also got the Pineapple Ginger Juice. The staff was friendly. I paid with a card so I was charged a 3% convenience fee which for our order totaled an additional $2. The wait for the food and drinks was short and we received all items in a reasonable time. The food was flavorful. The Saltfish is mixed with the Ackee and was minimal in portion size. The best item was the Fried Dumplings. They were fresh and cooked perfectly. The Pineapple Ginger Juice is a favorite. It's refreshing whether it's served bottled or from the fountain. The juice has a good balance of the pineapple and ginger flavors.

    Ordered jerk chicken off of DoorDash. I choose the sides plantains and fries (originally wanted…read morepotatoe salad but they were out ) . The food was good fries was seasoned but just slightly too salty for me . The chicken was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. I do wish it came with more sauce/gravy so next time I will remember to request for extra. The food was excellent and the portions are worth the price. They did not mess up my order which was great. When I arrived to pick up my order, inside was full of tables set up for people to dine in and the person in the front greeted me with a warm smile. Definitely would return back .

    Wow these portions!…read more What Ofcourse I got the 2 signature meals. The jerk chicken and also the fried chicken with honey. The jerk chicken, I got with rice and peas, mixed veggies and cabbage. The cabbage was a little strange to me- not as I imagined from Jamaica steamed cabbage. The mixed veggies were also basic - like boiled frozen mixed veggies. The rice and peas were overall good but tasted a little on the hard side. The chicken though! This was the highlight - it was very flavorful, though I wish I would be able to have the sauce on the side.. For the fried chicken meal - the fried chicken was nice and hot. I got this to-go and was worried it would get soggy but it still tasted great when I got home. Environment This is located in a plaza tucked away near the corner. It seems to be a more takeout restaurant. There is some seats inside for your to enjoy the food. Since it is in a plaza, there is plenty of parking available, but in front of the restaurant could be a bit tricky. Niceness of the staff I would say she was not on the nice side. No one greeted me upon entering also they seemed preoccupied and did not once gave eye-contact. Definitely not friendly.. but nonetheless I got my food. Dollar It is like the bang for your buck. I ordered via UnderEats and there are deals, it was very reasonable as you get 2 leg quarters! Yes I would definitely order takeout again

    Well...today was my 2nd visit and I was soooo looking forward to getting the whole fried Red…read moreSnapper but I am very disappointed I don't understand how they opened at 5pm and it's now 831pm and they are out of fish! I came back just to get the fish again because it is the absolute best!! Needless to say I didn't eat anything. The band is on point and my friend's Long Island Iced Tea was perfect. The hostess (in the picture) was very accommodating and beautiful. This is all I can comment on this visit as I unfortunately couldn't eat dinner. I was forced to sit here and watch everyone around me eat.

    In Orlando to visit family and also enjoy a couple of Theme parks. Came to City Walk to try this…read morerestaurant. The menu read great and we were excited to try this place since we love Jamaican Food. Was not easy to make a reservation - had to call Universal main line and choose from options. However, once we got a person, the reservation process was easy and pleasant. We informed the person taking the reservation that this was our first time visiting the restaurant so we expected a nice table - I assume they want repeat business. But instead we were seated right in front of the live band and it was so loud, we couldn't talk at all. The funny thing was that the restaurant was barely half full! Our waiter also had a tough time hearing us so we had to corret our orders a couple of times. They ran out of beef patties:-( that day. We decide to order some appetizers and a couple of entrees and shared. We had the Buffalo Soldier Jerk Wings - Had a nice spice to it and was quite delicious. We also hd the Jerk Caulifolower bites - a little sweet and spicy sauce and we all agreed this was the best dish we had! We had the Curried Goat stew - a weak curry and did not really have any spice to it. The Reggae Jamaican Jerk Chicken had a sweet spice and sticky sauce - next best dish we had. We also ordered the Coco bread- which was disappointing andd I do not recommend. It was just bread with some butter in it and definitely overpriced for what you got! Cocktails were rather weak. Server was just OK. He wasn't very attentive and did nothing to make our visit great.
