    The goat curry here was so good I ate around the bones. One of our group had ordered an app of the saltfish and conch fritters to share and they were gone in minutes. The place wasn't super busy in person for a Wednesday night but they had a steady string of pick up orders. It's a large space that I would say is great for larger group gatherings (our table was like 12 people). It's also close enough to old town Scottsdale you can head to a bar nearby after a hearty dinner!

    I recently visited Caribbean Palms and walked away with mixed feelings. First off, the service was great. The woman kept checking on me, and I actually liked that the cook brings out the food that's a nice personal touch you don't see everywhere. That said, the portions were underwhelming. I understand it leans more toward a dine-in experience, but the oxtail serving felt small. The presentation almost plays tricks on you it comes on a large plate with separate bowls for the sides, which makes it look like more than it actually is. On top of that, having to choose between cabbage or plantains felt a bit limiting for sides. The rice was a little dry and slightly hard for my taste, but I will say the plantains were really good sweet and done right. I couldn't help but compare it to another Caribbean spot I recently tried in Glendale, where the portions were generous and the oxtail was big, tender, and full of flavor. Here, the flavor was good, but it didn't stand out. I've definitely had better, so my expectations were a bit higher. Overall, it's not a bad spot it just feels pricey for what you get. I spent around $60 total: two cocktails at $15 each, plus the oxtail at market price (which can run $30-$40). The biggest plus is convenience it's close to home, so it's an easy option when I'm craving Jamaican food. But if I'm being honest... next time, I might still find myself making that drive back out to Glendale.

    Deliciousness! Meant to leave a review the first time I visited in person but great to know that food quality doesn't change with delivery. Ordered the Jerk Chicken Plate that came with rice and peas and cabbage. Absolutely delicious but be warned that is some real jerk, it's got a kick to it for sure!! Plantains were yummy as was the festival. Side of sautéed mushrooms for a little razzle dazzle. Definitely visit this place in person too, they have great cocktails!!

    I returned a couple of days later - the curry goat! Delicious!! And friendly service again! I wish I lived in the Phoenix area! No picture of the food ( took it out and I was not careful how I carried it- half the food spilled into the bag, lol ", but even all mixed up it was still delicious).

    Immaculate vibes. The restaurant is clean and well-decorated with plenty of seating. The dancehall mix playing while my friends and I were there had hit after hit. The entrees were delicious and filling, well-seasoned, and tender. If you're expecting a constant, hovering service, don't come here. Our waitress got us exactly what we wanted and let us enjoy our social outing. I am so happy that my first Jamaican food experience was one to remember.

    I went in mid afternoon. No one greeted us and there were barely any lights on. The place was set up with white table cloths and place settings but was completely empty other than me and a couple of door dashers. I noticed it was only two people working there, I'm guessing the couple that owned it. It was slow so I understand keeping overhead low. The lady was nice enough but nothing stood out about the service. I ordered jerk chicken w/ cabbage, rice & peas and a Ting to drink. The food was HORRIBLE. I sat down to eat it there but after two bites I carried it out. I drove straight to another place. I threw out the piece I bit from and found a homeless man at the bus stop a ways down and gave it to him just not to waste. The chicken was not grilled, the jerk sauce tasted like BBQ sauce and had a vinegary flavor and rubbery consistency. SKIP THIS PLACE!!!

    Curried Goat.

    This place is fantastic. The curried goat is as good as I've ever had paired with a red stripe is absolute perfection. I'm sad that I'm here at 6:30 on a Wednesday night and I'm the only customer in the restaurant. Y'all get out here and support this place. The food is fantastic, it's a nice restaurant, and the people are nice.

    Great little spot, smelled good when I walked through the door...plenty of parking, great location...close to Old Town Scottsdale, lots of tables, good R & B music, very clean, first class customer service with a smile & kindness, thank you Sheena for taking great care of us & recommending good dishes from your menu. Food was good, authentic, just enough spice & flavor. It's a must try experience.I will definitely go back to try a few more dishes. Enjoy!!!

    Oxtails with extra rice no cabbage

    This place has been around for years and is the closest to authentic Jamaican food my husband (who's Jamaican) has found. The food is always on point, flavorful, and feels like home. The service is a little slow due to being made to order, and while the inside is nice and calm, the staff can be a little rude -- but that's just the Caribbean way! We always get our food to go, but it's definitely worth the visit for the great food!

    Curry Goat
    Madelynn F.

    Came here just to try the oxtail pasta. The pasta and the pasta sauce was delicious! (The oxtails in it were a bit tough, I would have liked them to be more tender). I had a rum punch that was delicious and also a caribe colada that was even better! We also had the curry goat with rice and peas and plantains. The plantains were good, but the goat was tough and not that tender. The rice and pease were a bit dry as well. Best part was the drinks and the pasta

    Jerk chicken plate! Amazing level of spice and plaintains were incredible! Beef Pattie was amazing as well.

    I love curry goat. I will be going back here. Excellent service too. Too bad it's so far from the west valley, but worth the drive.

    Stopped by The Ends for a quick dinner before my flight and had such a good experience!…read more I tried the bolognese tagliatelle with bison and wagyu, and it was delicious. The pasta was really well made, and the bolognese was rich and flavorful without feeling too heavy or cheesy. As a tomato lover, I obviously had to try the tomatini. It was a must for me. Super refreshing, savory, and delicious. definitely one of the more unique cocktails I've tried. Not pictured was the pistachio espresso martini - I love pistachio so it was a must as well. It was smooth and had great flavor. I sat at the bar, watched the game, and had a really nice, easy dinner before heading to the airport. The staff was super attentive, funny, and sweet, which made the experience better. I walked in on a Wednesday around 5-6 PM and it wasn't busy at all, so getting a bar seat was easy. It did start filling up around 7 PM though, so making a reservation might be needed!

    Cool little spot with a great location. I love that they don't use seed oils, and the menu is…read moreinteresting. The downside is the price. Food and drinks both felt overpriced for the portion size and quality. Everything was good, but it wasn't a $300 meal. As a lifelong Anthony Bourdain fan, I couldn't help thinking he would have hated this place. He loved authentic hole-in-the-wall spots, not the glitzy facade so many Scottsdale restaurants have. Personally, I thought the decor was nice, but the thought still crossed my mind. The staff was solid. I'm giving 3 stars based on the overall value of the food and experience.
