I don't know why it took so long to try this place, but I'm mad at myself for not stopping by sooner! Had jerk shrimp with joloff rice and cabbage sides & my hub had the curry chicken with plantains & joloff rice everything was mouthwatering! Amazing customer service too, and not a long wait at all for being a Monday during lunch right outside the base. read more

I found this place on Yelp and decided to give it a try while I was in the area for work. I'm glad that I did! I tried the jerk shrimp meal, with an upgrade for some special Jollof rice. Everything was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. The shrimp were spicy, citrusy, and very tender, so I was happy to see the large portion. My only complaint was that she forgot my fried plantains, and I was SO looking forward to them!! Other than that, my experience was excellent, and I'll be back to try those plantains, the jerk chicken, and the curry chicken! :) read more

Almost missed it as we drove by! Friendly staff, quick service and delicious jerk chicken! The perfectly cooked jasmine rice was sweet enough to cool the delectable heat of the jerk seasoning. Will be back again! read more

Yo this place is so good. You sample anything before buying. You would think that sides like black beans, spinach, and cabbage would be boring but they found a way to make alllll of this taste amazing.and if you like spicy they got the sauce! Wish they were open on the weekends read more

The best spicy jerk chicken I have had! Love it. The black beans are amazing. The coconut rice is amazing. The lamb is amazing. If you like hot, get a side of hot sauce--it packs in an awesome kick. Great service, they take cards and I believe Bluetooth pay services as well. Large portions. Stay in line if there are a few people ahead, it goes pretty fast and is worth the wait. read more

Awesome customer service! Really good affordable food. The orange rice and jerk thighs are my favorite. The beans are really good, and a bit spicy! read more

An absolute gem! The jerk chicken, goat curry and coleslaw are to die for! And that's about all we tried today. Would be happy to go back in a heartbeat... read more

This will always be my first stop every time I visit oak harbor...everything was delicious!!!!

Caribbean Lunchbox - Caribbean Near Me - Oak Harbor, Washington

Went for the first time today with my husband. The guy working was so friendly and gave us a few samples to try! The food is out of this world delicious very flavorful. We will be back for sure!! read more

Absolutely the best in oak harbor! I highly recommend the thigh curry and the jollof rice is out of this world good!

Just the right amount of spicy-ness! Loved everything we tried here, but my absolute favorite was the Mama's Vegetarian plate - delicious & healthy! read more

I'm actually a little surprised by how good the reviews are here. The food was verrry spicy; even the black beans and especially the shrimp. My mother-in-law couldn't even eat hers. The wings were okay and the chicken thighs were good. The plantains were very good. It's great for people who love spicy food. It's not a sit down restaurant; it's a little coffee stand type place where you drive through and order. Excellent customer service. I just was not a fan of the food and I won't be going back but don't let that deter you if you love spicy! read more

Really good food. I had lunch there today. The Curry chicken, joffo rice, and fried plantains were great. A little slow on the service, but they are new, so, probably just getting organized. I hope they can get a larger location in Oak Harbor soon. read more

Don't let the "coffee" shack fool you. They serve food and their food is simply delicious! The spices are well balanced and it has just the right amount of heat. It is a definite must try on the island. The only down side I see is my tummy is not bigger so I can savor the flavors longer. read more

Was in the area for a work trip, but wasn't familiar with the area enough to know good restaurants. So, I used Yelp since it has never led me astray. Once again it did not disappoint! This drive-up food stop is a gem!!! The owners are absolutely delightful and personable! Their establishment looks very clean and their food is extremely authentic! I had the half and half (chicken and shrimp) w/ steamed cabbage and the upgraded rice. The shrimp are a tad spicy, so only order those if you like spice! But, if you like spice they were phenomenal!!!! Also, their plantains are some of the best I've ever had!!! This place is definitely worth your time and stop!!!! read more

Absolutely phenomenal!!!!!!! I ordered the jerk chicken with coconut infused rice, and black beans. The chicken was so juicy and flavorful! And the owner was so sweet. I will definitely be back!! read more

Their plantains some of the best I've ever had. Everything was flavorful and done just right. I can't wait to go back.

Omg, my daughter brought me home some shrimp, jerked chicken, rice and stewed cabbage from here and the explosion of flavors in my mouth was incredible. The chicken was so tender it melted in my mouth and the taste of the shrimp was worth the 4 alarm fire they caused on my tongue. The rice and cabbage was a nice cooling factor. So tasty I am craving it as I write this! read more

Simply Outstanding. Bursting flavors. Love the curry, black beans, plantains and the cabbage so delicious. The owners are very very nice too! read more

Love this place.!!! What a gem!!! I recommend this place over anyplace you might go to!! Try it once and you will be going back again and again! read more

I come here weekly and every experience is amazing! Their jerk chicken, black beans, and coconut infused rice are heavenly and are still my go to. The owners and the staff and all very sweet and accommodating. I'm so happy this place has opened up here, just wish there were some weekend hours. read more

I always get the Jerk chicken thigh with double amount of coconut infused rice and spicy sauce on the side! Omg it's soooo good! Definitely recommend! The spicy sauce is SPICY too! A small amount goes a LONG way. Plus, they are so nice and very generous with their portions. Love this small local business. read more

The shrimp skewers and spinach are the best. It's everything I miss from the south. They have great specials so you can never get tired of the choices. read more

I heard about this stand through word of mouth and I'm glad I listened to the recommendations. Food is very well seasoned and a party in my mouth. So far I have had the Jollof (spelling?) rice, jerk chicken, plantains, and coconut cake. I recommend all! Stop by this place, it is worth the try! read more

I was excited to try this place after reading the rave reviews but the only comment I agree with is that the lady was very friendly. She apologized for being out of the curry goat (which they must prepare off site because there isn't room for a kitchen) and she recommended the jerk chicken so I gave it a try. I believe it had been prepared the day before and reheated on the steam table because the chicken was so overcooked that it didn't taste like chicken any more, the jerk seasonings had completely taken over. My experience might have been an anomaly but the fact that the food is prepared off site and transferred in the trunk of a car (saw it myself) concerns me. I recommend that you ask for samples before you order anything, I wish I would have. read more

Absolutely amazing little spot! For both customer service and food! I always get the jerk chicken or shrimp, with coconut rice, and plantains. Very authentic, always great flavor and cooking, very friendly owners/staff. The ONLY reason I'm hesitant to give the 5th star is due to times they said/show they'll be open and they haven't been. I work on the base and take lunch at different times. On a couple of occasions I've gone right at the time they open, and no ones there, which causes me to go find somewhere else since my lunch is limited on time. I've also showed up after opening time and they don't have much ready from "running late". I'm a reasonable person, but after the 2nd time it became a little unreliable. Still though, the food is SO amazing that I will always try to go! read more

Had the jerk chicken thighs. The chicken was juice with a great spice taste. Nice portion of food for the price. It also came with rice, and a side(I had the black beans) and fried plantains like. Rice and beans were tasty. Service was quick and friendly. I will be back read more

I got their jerk chicken with jasmine rice and cabbage. So delicious, everything was flavorful and perfect amount of spices. Definitely will be coming back for more! read more

Coming from NYC, I'm super picky with Caribbean food. I was not disappointed and glad to have tried this spot. Emmanuel took his grandmother's recipes and added his own touch, and it shows. If you love heat, ask for his own spicy sauce. read more

Amazing food! I've always hated goat but theirs is fantastic! Not dry, chewy, or barnyardy. It's cooked perfect like everything else on the menu. Highly recommended. Oh and they have military discount. read more

My husband and I finally got around to trying this place and let me tell you it did not disappoint! We both got the curry chicken and it had so much flavor and just the right amount of spice. We will definitely be frequent customers and we both can't wait to try everything else on the menu. read more

Really good food. Incredibly spicy though. The guy who owns it is also really nice. The only, obvious, downside is that they don't have tables to sit at so you've got to get it for take out. read more

This is legit the best place to grab some food on this whole island I been eating here regularly since my first sample delicious 10 out of ten for sure read more

Finally something different other than the typical everyday places. The jerk chicken & shrimp is awesome. I highly recommend people try this place read more
