The jerk chicken had the perfect spice and smokiness, the curry chicken was melt-in-your-mouth tender, and the rice and peas were seasoned perfectly.

The restaurant has a lively, welcoming vibe that makes you feel right at home. Portions are generous, prices are fair, and the flavors are authentic! I left feeling completely satisfied.

The curry goat had lots of big bones and the meat could have been cooked a little longer. The cowfoot soup was pretty good and tasty but it did not have any meat. It had dumplings and vegetables. The waitress/bartender could have been a little more welcoming and interacting; especially since there was only two women at the bar eating. The waitress was dry the entire experience. The ambience was nothing special. You can eat at the bar or in the dining are. They had a few jamaican pictures hanging up. I think I am a one and done with this experience

1-Star Review - Extremely Disappointed and Concerned…read more I am extremely disappointed with my recent order from Caribbean Hut. I ordered oxtails, and what I received did not look like the oxtail I am accustomed to eating. After examining the pieces of meat and bone in my meal, I became very concerned about exactly what I had been served. I have included photographs of the actual food I received so customers can look at it for themselves and make their own judgment. I cannot independently confirm what type of meat this actually is, but after seeing information circulating about the differences between oxtail and kangaroo tail, the appearance of what I received raised serious questions and concerns for me. I work hard for my money. Oxtails are expensive, and when I spend my hard-earned money at a restaurant and specifically pay for oxtail, I expect to receive exactly what I ordered and paid for. I should not have to get home, examine my meal, and wonder, "What exactly did I just eat?" I also called Caribbean Hut this morning and specifically asked to speak with the manager regarding my concerns. I was told that the manager was not available. I made an effort to contact the restaurant directly and give management an opportunity to address this matter. Customers deserve honesty, quality, and transparency about the food they are purchasing and consuming. When someone pays for a particular type of meat, especially something as expensive as oxtail, they should be confident that they are receiving what they paid for. This entire experience has left me extremely disappointed and uncomfortable. I would like management at Caribbean Hut to explain exactly what meat was served to me and address my concerns. Until I receive a satisfactory explanation, I cannot recommend this restaurant based on my experience.

Tucked away off the main road, this spot immediately brings you into Caribbean culture the moment you walk through the door. The atmosphere is warm and the food absolutely delivered. It had been a long time since I'd had truly tender, flavorful oxtail, and their Oxtail & Curry Goat Combo definitely satisfied my craving. I ordered the large combo plate, which came with rice and peas, cabbage, and plantains. Both the curry goat and oxtail were packed with flavor, perfectly seasoned. I also ordered a beef patty with coco bread, and I couldn't even wait until I got home to try it. The beef patty was flaky and filled with seasoned beef, while the warm, slightly sweet coco bread took it to another level. It was the perfect combination ,10/10!

After some back and forth I thought he understood what I wanted and was going to make it happen. I get home to find out he gave me the broiled anyway. SMH, I don't know who this guy was who served me but it wasn't the owner, some guy with a beard. I've been coming here for years so I've met the owner before. It won't stop me from coming but I'll be ify about placing an order with the guy who took my order the other day or better yet I should've checked the food before I left.

I will start by saying that this place is now serving dog food. The food was absolutely disgusting…read more- everything was hard, dry, and burnt, including the cake! Absolutely zero "F's" were given in the food preparation. The textures were appalling, as if the food had been scorched and then left out for hours before serving. The only remotely edible thing was the cold, burnt plantains, but even those were barely tolerable. I kept biting into gritty bits that I couldn't even identify as food, which made me seriously question the safety of what I was eating. If I had access to a lab, I would submit it to see what I'd [really] been served. I ended up throwing my entire meal in the garbage. To top it off, they've changed the name of the place, which just raises even more red flags. I can't help but wonder why they felt the need to do that. It's a waste of money, time, hope and food to ever go here. They disrespected the life of the poor chicken who died for this wretched soot seasoned, curry chicken slop. If my husband or anyone suggested this place I would seriously consider throwing hands. It doesn't matter what they are calling it now. Do yourself a favor and stay far, far away from this place.

The cashier was sweet and personable. She was multitasking, but still managed to be fully engaged in the service she provided to us. She kindly let us know what items were sold out for the day and also gave us time to look over the menu and decide on our order without making us feel rushed. While we waited for our food to arrive, we noticed a steady flow of customers all the way until closing time! It's clear Island Grill & Pub is a local favorite. The food is packaged up to go, but there are plenty of tables to dine-in once you have your food...and a big screen with movies and Jamaican music playing in the background to keep you entertained. The wait for the food is a bit long...but EVERYTHING came out very fresh, very authentic, and worth the wait. The portions were plentiful, the food was flavorful and seasoned well, and the items were priced well for the value. What we ordered: - Small Jerk Chicken plate with rice & peas and cabbage - Jerk Chicken pasta - Side order of Macaroni and cheese We wish we lived closer, so we could visit Island Grill & Pub regularly, but it's definitely on our list any time we travel to the Rock Hill area!
