I remember when footprints opened years ago, the service was the best....but now SMDH, how the service has changed for the worst. I placed my order with the server and I his shift ended and he never put in my order. I was waiting a half hour before I was checked on, please keep in mind this was not the peak of their business hours. Nevertheless I left without getting the dish I asked for. read more

I had the Rasta pasta dish with shrimp. The pasta was delish however my shrimp was a bit dry. I also had sorrel which was made perfect. I will go back to get the pasta perhaps with tofu as my protein. The place it self is simple and clean which is fine. The server was ok no problem. read more

I love this place! I have been here a couple times and always enjoy my visit. I always get the Rasta Pasta which is amazing. I have also tried the wings which are really good too. The drinks are great too. I love the strawberry margarita and the blue Hawaiian here. I love the music and the vibes here. You will always have a good time at Foot Prints. My only issue is the wait. Every time I go here, I always have to wait for at least an hour. I would recommend calling ahead and adding your name to the list in order to avoid the wait. read more

I got an to go order while visiting. I ordered Brown Stew with rice and peas and macaroni pie My friend got the jerk chicken breast Her mom got the ox tails My brown stew was spot on!! Very juicy and flavorful! I got a small and i feel like my portions were very generous for the price. The rice and peas were good, nothing special but good. Now let's talk about this macaroni pie..... what the heck is macaroni pie? What makes pie different than just baked Mac! This stuff was pretty tasty! My friends jerk chicken was described as very good. The ox tails were described as VERY good. Said the OX tails were meaty and flavorand she plans on returning to this place. While i was waiting i sat at the bar and ordered a drink. I ordered a crown with Cranberry. Let's give a SHOT OUT to the bartender!!! He made a Crown and cran not a cran and Crown!! My drink was perfect! The bartender was really nice and not too overly chatty while i waited. When i come back i could see myself revisiting this place. Everyone was so nice and that's not really typical with Caribbean restaurants. read more

Spicy Ox Tail? That was a first for me. The food is about average, service is very slow ( 1/2 hr for take out ), atmosphere is above average. I hope to come back at a slower time because this place has potential. Ox Tail Stew Chicken read more

Late night creep to this spot. I heard so many great things about this place. Especially their Rasta Pasta, and it didn't disappointment me at all. I had a young male server, can't remember his name, but I ordered a coco loso with him and I was well lit off that one drink. The Rasta pasta with Jerk shrimp was to die for, especially if you like spicy food. It was a great size portion, I was able to take some home and have left overs. The pasta was just right. The only compliant I have about this establishment was that it was too small. It was packed on a Friday night, the take out counter's line was to the door. Their floors were a little slippery and sticky as well. They need a bigger space for all the great business and food they give their customers. BTW the music had me jamming in my seat. Great spot! Bless Up! read more

We came to this restaurant because it was close from the rides in Coney Island, we didn't want to wait 2 hrs in line to eat corndogs, so we went across the street and found Footprints. The place has a nice balcony and the decor is decent. I don't think we got the best service ever, it was just ok. The food was priced fairly and they have a big menu full of choices. I ordered fried tofu and it nicely seasoned, I was not super happy about the texture, since it was too soft inside, but it was allright. I have 2 complaints about the place: It takes FOREVER!!!! To get your food, eventhough the place only had about 3 customers. the other complaint is that the soda was filled all the way with ice and they do not offer refills. read more

Footprints Cafe - Caribbean Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

We all know how good the food is at footprints but the costumer service almost tops it. Me and my dad went into the Clarendon Rd location to inquiry about catering needs for an event. We was immediately seated with an employee ( Yanique ) who was nothing but amazing. She showed us the catering menu and even helped us pick the right dishes and dish sizes. We spent $880 worth of catered food and we would do it all over again just because the costumer service was so Immaculate. read more

footprints has gone down in quality tremendously... i am ashamed of the food i received, the smell made me sick alone. please do not order from footprints!! takeout quality is the worst and i doubt inside is any different !!! i would also like to inform other potential customers that their original chef has left a while ago and the imitaters/copycats who are running the kitchen are ruining the name . they really pissed me off.. such a nasty shame read more

Never going back here again. I had to argue with two waitresses and one manager to fix my bill. They awarded me a free entree for my birthday and free desert; gimmick is you can't redeem both at once- straight stupid! Then they wouldn't split my check properly and told me they cannot apply my restaurant . Com voucher!!! When they finally fixed it they added mandatory gratuity for the sucky waitress. Did I mention my food took one hour to come out ... And the guy came out with an attitude and said "when it's busy errors happen" . 3 stars for the food. The food is large, way too large. I could order a small meal and share it with two people. That's good though especially for the price. A large meal can cost $9 - $15 . I ordered a sea moss ...small..which was huge to me... it taste great. Also a sorrel...it was good as well. not too sweet. The roti was huge. My daughter ordered some wings and fries, shes 6 and the plate could have fed 2 people for $10. The staff, not so fancy. I felt avoided for the night. I had to keep hunting down someone for water...forks...for everything. My waiter seemed too stand offish and when she got her tip she was smiling and talkative. the customer service sucks like hell. The tables are close together, space is small. There's no parking lot we had to park by the street since the parking lot is for mc.donalds customers and your car will be towed if you park there. Same as the coney island location...street park. I loved it except for the sucky staff...the bartender was talking over someones drinks...yuck. dont talk over my drinks please, that's nasty. read more

One of my favorite Caribbean restaurants .. this food is always amazing and the drinks are always strong. I usually come on the weekend when the crowd is lively so there tends to be a little bit of a wait but it's worth it. They play good music ... soca gets my taste buds jumping lol.The food is always amaze-balls ... I usually get the oxtails with rice and peas ... last time I went with my friend she has the oxtails with the Rasta pasta and we got 2 rum runners .... those drinks are NO JOKE ... I think it's a splash of juice and all liquor lol ... I'm more of a sweet drink kinda person but this drink is awesome. I definitely suggest grabbing one ... the price is good too. The drinks and food are extremely reasonable ... will definitely be back read more

Footprints Cafe - Caribbean Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Great place! I live near the Bronx and don't get to BK that often so when I was going to an event at a Barclays I said I can't leave without trying Footprints! I got there around 1am! Yes it was crowded and when we ordered takeout we were told it'd be a 35-45 min wait. No prob. We ordered a drink at the bar, observes the scene and waited. I would give five stars but I didn't have the full sit down service and you're really shoulder to shoulder if waiting. There are outdoor seats but it was cold and windy. Fast forward I get home and my Rasta Pasta with Jerk chicken was the best! Nice serving spicy pasta cooked to perfection! I think I'll go reheat the leftovers. Definitely check it out. I'll be trying brunch really soon! read more

Footprints Cafe - Rasta Pasta w/ Jerk chicken. Creamy spicy delicious! - Caribbean Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I ordered food from here on grubhub for pickup. They told me my order was coming when I arrived. I knew something was wrong when I had to tell them and spell out my three lettered name more than once. I waited 20 minutes just for them to tell me my order wasn't there and I had to CALL grubhub. They didn't even try to accommodate me and at least make the order I would've paid again and canceled with grubhub later if I had to. They even told me maybe my order was at the WRONG location!! Every time I call this place the staff has a attitude (the women especially). I would never order from here again. read more

This Restaurant is PURE GARBAGE!!! AVOID AT ALL COST !!!! I ordered through Uber eats Since 9 pm!!! the wait time said about 35-55 mins. I was totally fine with that but now it's currently 11:51pm.

Enjoyed the Rasta pasta and the manager Terry was very kind to me and helpful in placing an order for some friends. Worth checking out.

Drinks were on point. Whew! The rum punch was tasty. Now on to the food... Appetizer- jerk wings were very flavorful. Spicy but not overbearing. They were soooo good and tasty. Food- jerk chicken rasta pasta had the right amount of spice and was kicking! The jerk chicken meal was very good, seasoned well and just tasty. Cabbage was very good and plantains were cooked perfectly. We enjoyed our trip and would come back again! :-) read more

Always love my Rasta Pasta. I usually get fried chicken and shrimp with it. I also have tried the oxtail and it has been great as well. The Rum Punch will get you all the time. I remove a star because at times it seems disorganized. The food also takes a while to come on some occasions. I rather this restaurant over Suede any day. That place will never get my business. Food is great can't complain read more

my husband and I ordered some food he had the snapper and I had the Rasta pasta with stuffed chicken breast it suppose to come with shrimp and spinach the shrimp was not fresh it was old and had a fishy taste everyone knows shrimp should be prepared fresh at all times ,you will not get that here if you ordering stuffed chicken the snapper was old had a very fishy taste you can tell it wasn't cleaned properly nor was it the freshest of fish sorry to say but it wasn't the best of meals Only thing good was the natural juices read more

Disorganization at its best. I placed my order at 6 pm, received notification that it will be ready between 7:15-740. I got there around 7:30 just to wait on a long line. It took me an hour to get inside, where I was met with even more chaos. At least 5 staff member asked me my name, order and how did I place my order. There was no communication or direction given. Other customers where complain and asked for there money back. read more

This is one my favorite Caribbean spots to order delivery from, especially during covid-19. However today has been disappointing. I ordered from DoorDash at about 5:00 from this café. At about 6:30, the food was ready to be picked up by my door dasher. upon my Dashers arrival to the café at 6:50, they had her waiting in line for about an hour and 15 minutes, ignoring social distancing rules so my food to be given to her. It is now 8pm and I am finally getting my food delivered to me. I am very saddened that my favorite restaurant has been so unprofessional with deliveries and their transfer of food to drivers. I expected better, and I hope that if I choose to order from them again, I would have my food delivered on time. Great food, unsatisfactory outcome. read more

Horrible!!!!! Just received my order from DoorDash and the food is trash!!!!!! The rice is nasty and taste old. The food was just thrown together. On top of that I found a stapler piece in my food...Never again. read more

The wait is so long .... And it's cold . The macaroni pie looks bad and it's cold . the plantains are cold and the mash potatoes are dry and unsalted . The Rasta pasta is also dry .

I showed up 10 mins after my food was supposed to be ready. I had to ask 4 different people when it would be ready. When I finally got my food the oxtails were bland and so was the Rasta pasta this place is definitely a miss tonight. Maybe next time! Piña colada was good though. read more

I was browsing for a new place to dine and a fried recommended Footprints, so I said cool let me check it out. It's a nice place that plays good music and very high energy. I loved every bit of it.... That is until the 15 min wait turned out to be 30 for a table for two. The seating arrangements are pretty tight. One thing that bothered me the most was the servers reaching over you and behind you to deliver hot food to tables around you. After being seated the services wasn't the best due to a shift change. But once everything was settled things were steadily improving. We ordered the Infamous Rasta Pasta w/ jerk chick(leg&thigh), and the Rasta Pasta w/ snapper. Food didn't take long and boy let me try to explain the palate explosion I received.... The species weren't overpowering and very flavorful. The chicken was cook well. Tender and Normally I worry about ppl putting bottled seasonings on my food but I didn't get that impression. Pasta is creamy and fulfilling. The sauce has hints of the jerk seasoning and that definitely hits the spot. The snapper was crispy and pairs well with this dish too. I loved that it was the whole fish and not fillets. I would definitely come back maybe during a weekday to avoid the crowds. 4/5 rating from me. read more

TERRIBLE service.... whether its outside of the pandemic or during, you will wait FOREVER to receive your food. The wait time for take out has been well over 2 hours and when you question why, no one has an answer and everyone has an attitude! The food quality is definitely lacking. The location in Coney Island is SOO much better. The wait staff there is so nice and willing to make customers comfortable. The food quality and presentation is also so much better. Clarendon Road should learn from Coney Island so they can be better. Pathetic! read more

I went to this place on a Sunday with a group of five friends. It was busy but not overly crowded. I arrived at 3pm. No service until 3:44 pm. That was just for drinks. It was over an hour for the appetizers to arrive. The appetizers were mediocre at best. About 30 to 40 minutes later dinner arrived. Rasta pasta with Cajun shrimp, in all about 5 shrimp on a huge plate of pasta. Around the same amount of shrimp in Chinese take out. That's the food, however the service was extremely slow and the wait staff inattentive, we had to chase them down for everything. The seating is horrible, think pushing five people in a space meant for two. I have nothing good to say about this place and advise anyone to go someplace / anyplace else. read more

Just left on a Sunday night and, of course, they are packed. Good for you! For us, it was between Suede and Footprints, and I'm glad we chose Footprints. Until... Honestly, I don't understand why businesses don't accept AMEX. It's not often that it happens but I read the red fine print on the menu and pretty much ended my night. Which sucks because I wanted more. I like my points and people with AMEX spend money, from my experience. I work in the industry. I've managed restaurants in NYC as well as consulted. So I get it, but I've never recommended a business to not accept Amex. I enjoyed the vibes, service and food but because all my/our credit is with American Exp. It's likely we won't be back. :( read more

First time here for dinner and it was a great experience, ambience was great along with food, only issue was the wait time being that it was on a weekend so it was understandable. All in all I'd recommend a go! read more

Footprints Cafe - Curry Shrimp - Caribbean Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I am NOT a pasta lover, never have been. The Rasta Pasta here though? Well, that's an exception. The pasta here is absolutely divine. It's creamy but spicy and extremely flavorful. The restaurant has a ton of options with what you want your pasta to be served with, I chose the chicken stuffed shrimp. My chicken was moist and the brown gravy that it was doused in was delicious. Only complaint probably was the stuffed shrimp, I thought the shrimp was a bit over cooked but other than that, the meal was fab. The portions are large too!! As for drinks, I ordered Sorrel but I heard the place is kind of known for their alcoholic beverages so if you're in the mood, try some of those options. Nonetheless, I was really happy about my choice. It was hands down one of the best Sorrel's I've tried, so much better than those bottled stuff they sell in some restaurants. The ginger flavor is really muted but still present and doesn't punch you in the back of your throat just by inhaling it. I would order it time and time again for sure. Overall, my experience here was great. The service was fast and attentive (maybe because I went on a Thursday night), the food was delicious and really large in size (I have left overs, can't wait to dig in!!), and the place had a great ambiance. I had a wonderful time here, can't wait to be back! read more

Service here is pretty good, the rasta Pasta is on point and probably one of my favorite dishes on the menu. With that being said, the wait to get a table is long depending on the day and the music level gets pretty loud. If you want a quiet place to eat this may not be it. Food is awesome! read more

This is truly a nice place. It's always buzzing with lively music and a good atmosphere. Go in the summertime and u can sit outside and enjoy the nice breeze while eating your snapper. Only once have I had a rude waitress but other than that the staff is friendly (not to mention the waiters are cute) lol. They have like 50 different type of drinks with sex driven names (bend over and f**k me is my fave). Everybody has heard of their rasta pasta. You can have it by itself or with meat/chicken I always have mine with oxtail. On Tuesdays try to go to their comedy night it's really funny with nice vibes. I've been to this place so many times and will always come back for food fun and a great time. read more

Footprints Cafe - Rasta pasta and oxtail one of my faves - Caribbean Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

The food is great but It can be a hit or miss with the Rasta pasta . Some days it's slamming and your GI tract is fine. Other times it's descent and your farting all over the place . They need to work on the drinks because for the price they should be stronger and intoxicating, . You can order your food two hours early and you will still be waiting and they will still screw up your order. The prices have gone up considerably but the quality has not . Their other dishes are slamming though depends on the day and the cook . Do better foot prints ! People still love the shit out of them though so there's that ! read more

Their food was okay, however the wait time isn't worth it.. The best thing on the menu is Rasta Pasta. Everything else I had was just average. read more

This place legit has some fantastic food. You have to try the rasta pasta. It's what they're known for and with good reason. We came in on a very busy night. The music was blasting like we were in a club.There was a 30 minute wait. We told the hostess that we wouldn't have a problem waiting. I did have a problem that three couples walked in after us and were seated immediately. When I asked her about it she immediately told me that our table was available but that it needed to be cleaned. I think if I hadn't said something then we would have been waiting for a while. We were finally seated but it took another 10 minutes for our server to greet us. By this time we knew what we wanted to drink and our appetizers and our main courses. I ordered the cucumber juice, the fish cake appetizer and the rasta pasta with oxtails. Everything was really delicious. The cucumber juice was very refreshing. I could see myself drinking it everyday. The fish cakes were pretty tasty too. But the main event stole the show. The rasta pasta with oxtail was so good. The best way I can explain it is a super remixed alfredo in penne pasta with fall off the bone oxtail. It was spicy, creamy, with a bit of coconut in it. It was just so good. I almost forgot about the wait it took to get it. Overall the food is amazing but service is lacking and not a good spot for you to bring a first date. The music is really loud. This is a good place to enjoy food while bobbing your head to some good music but having no real conversation. I would definitely come back for that rasta pasta. It's a must try. read more
