Fantastic business, food and family. Our go to local spot - feels like over a year now, one of the most consistent, excellent food establishments in the area 12/10. read more

Great food and service in a neat little local spot! The fragrance when we walked in the door set the stage for a great meal.

I was greeted upon entry. Service 5/5. Nice Caribbean ambiance. Food was tasty. Although the food temperature was a bit cold for my liking. I like my food hot. For the most part my rib tips were nice and tender. And the plantains were great. A great place to try if you're in Gary. Just plan for parking. read more

Food was excellent, big negative is having to look at a menu and then go to the counter and order. Their specials were great . The young lady was informative and very helpful. The establishment was very clean. You have to order drinks by the can or bottle, no refills. Really good lunch spot. The rum cake is heavenly; it's a must try! read more

The hours use to be limited and only open 3 days a week so this visit came highly anticipated and didn't disappoint. From the cashier/host Kiara and only Ryan they were knowlegable, well spoken and good hosts. This is as good as it gets on Lake Street in Downtown Miller Beach and comes highly recommended. Support small owned and local business's like this fine establishment. read more

Great food and exceptional seasonings. Above and beyond courteous and excellent service.

Food I had was really, really good. The green sauce (I forgot what it's called) on the side was soooooo good. Staff was extremely friendly and seemed happy to share their culture with customers through food. Hidden gem in my eyes for sure. read more

Rib tips are MEATY! They have jerk and regular. The jerk has kick but just the right amount. Sometimes it's difficult to get certain foods on certain days. Oxtails are delicious but they are only available on certain days and it seems those days rotate. Also specials sell out quickly. Don't wait too late to put your order in. read more

I've been meaning to come here for months. I grew up in Miller and come home often. My parents (suprisingly) had not been here yet. Me and dad stopped for dinner. We got the jerk chicken, Mojo chicken, rice and peas, cabbage, plantains, and mac and cheese for sides with rum cake for dessert. WE DID NOT PUT OUR FORKS DOWN! Dad just kept saying, "More! More!" You have earned lifelong fans. We will be back. I may even be back this week! Bravo! Yum! Run, don't walk to Carribean Roots! read more

This was one of the best dining experiences I've had. The food was fresh, well-seasoned, and presented beautifully. The restaurant itself was very clean, and the staff was quick to make sure we had everything we needed. read more

Tremendously delicious food! Stopped here on a whim when looking for a place to have dinner while on a road trip. Had jerk chicken, ribs, and fried plantains as a side - yum! I recommend you make a trip here to try it out. read more

Foods is great. Staff are very friendly. If you on a time crunch order ahead. Wish they had some protein and salad options. Overall great place to visit. read more

Order there early, they make things fresh daily and when they run out, you're out of luck. I love the side cabbage and jerk chicken.

This new little hidden treasure has quickly become our favorite place. The Caribbean flavors are legit. The mouth watering ox tails, jerk chicken, pulled pork, rice and beans and sweet plantains just to name a few are all finger licking good. I wish them much success! read more

I will be back. The food great and customer service was excellent! I would tell everyone to come and enjoy the food

Had their pica pollo and it was the best flavored chicken I've had in years. Really great. My wife and friends had chicken with rice and plantains. Very good, but not as stellar as my food was. read more

Great family owned business that puts their heart and soul into their food! The meats are unlike any other...you can tell they put so much time into making an excellent product! The rice and empanadas are loved, even with my picky children! Great spot to stop and grab lunch or dinner on the way to the city or beach! We can't wait to come back! read more

Absolutely great food!!! Loved that they were able to make substitutions for my allergy to wheat. My daughter who doesn't often try new foods absolutely loved the empanadas and has requested to go back!! read more
