We came starving and they did nor disappoint! The oxtails were so well seasoned. We just wish we had more gravy on the rice..lol! My ackee and saltfish was great. I just wish I had more fish rather than dumpling..lol! The service was friendly, and their market has EVERYTHING AUTHENTIC! I was so tempted to go grocery shopping for some basics whe waiting for our food but I will make sure to do that next time. read more

Well when I heard the microwave start in the back that was a wrap for me. I ate what we ordered but didn't finish the meal. The food was already prepared and was not very good. Service was non existent. I felt like the guy didn't want us there at all. The place is kinda dirty but I won't be back so it doesn't matter. read more

Stew chicken lunch portion was great!! MA's warm smile and kind words helped me with my order. Wonderful experience.....looking forward to the return. Additionally, they are a well-stocked, neat market for patrons who want to cook themselves. If in the area, stop in.....you will be happy you did. read more

Ackee and saltfish breakfast on a Saturday morning is good. They offer either sweet potato or yellow yam so make sure to ask for the one you want. The meal comes with 2 boiled dumplings and green banana. The portions size is enough for 2 people or if you have a large appetite. read more

Was going to my friends to see their new home and needed food. Stopped here as I love Caribbean food and figured it was a great choice because of the reviews. Needless to say it was definitely a market so they sold all types of Jamaican local goodies and cooked in the back. The thing that I didn't like the most was how nasty the food was lol It didn't have a lot of flavor. I ordered basic traditional food; stewed chicken, rice and peas, and cabbage. I was not impressed. I really wanted the fish but was told it would be about 45 mins as the fish is frozen and made to order. Never heard of this but it was good to know. I liked the location, staff service was great , but the food itself was not worth it and I will most likely not return. read more

Horrible customer service. No welcoming feeling at all. Treated me like my color is not welcome in their store. Very disappointing! All that for food that was not the best vs other Caribbean restaurants. Glad I have many choices elsewhere to eat other than here. And expensive for no reason, even when I asked not for less food than the norm. Also the set up of the store has zero indication of where to actually order food and extremely poor layout. read more

Soo good! The oxtail plate is our favourite. Love grocery shopping with there as well! read more

Grayson Caribbean Market - Large Oxtail plate - Caribbean Near Me - Lawrenceville, Georgia

I was drawn here due to their restaurant and I wasn't disappointed. This is a clean restaurant and market that had my food ready in less than five minutes. Unfortunately, they didn't have Beef Patties when I visited, but one of the employees gave me a veggie patty to try (free), which was delicious. The Oxtail Plate was no different in terms of quality. My only complaint is that prices are quite high, but the original prices (before inflation) were written next to current prices and those seemed reasonable. I'll definitely be coming back. read more

Ehh just OK. The oxtails were a tad tough & the rice was a little more crispy than normal. The plantains were really good.There needs to be more Flavor added to the overall dish. Ehh, I may try again with a different dish..maybe. Large Oxtails $19.99 read more

Walked in and wasn't greeted back when I said hello. The girl was just sitting on her phone. When I started to place my order for 2 jerk chicken plates she took the order and after a couple minutes of me waiting she went to the back and came back saying that there's only 1 jerk chicken plate left.. read more

Dissatisfied. The Oxtails were nothing but fat. Rice was dry, gravy didn't help it. I'm still hungry and wasted money. read more

Grayson Caribbean Market - Large oxtail plate - Caribbean Near Me - Lawrenceville, Georgia

Location is decent with reasonable prices. Good food portions as well. Variety is limited, but not a deal breaker.

Great service and food was hot and delicious. This will be a regular stop for me now.

This restaurant and market is a must to frequent. It recommended to me by quite a few Caribbeans for authentic Jamaican food. The employees were very pleasant and patient, which the made the experience worth the drive. The Jerk Chicken was AWESOME! I'll be back for sure! read more

The food here is sooo Good! I chose the oxtails & beef patties!! When I say delish.... I mean DELISH!!! The oxtails were tender & the beef parties were yummy!! I can't wait to go back & grub!! read more

Grayson Caribbean Market - Omg!!! When I say good..... this food is delicious!!! I can NOT wait to come back for a visit. Oxtails w/rice & peas!! #yummy #tasty - Caribbean Near Me - Lawrenceville, Georgia

I have had this place bookmarked for quite some time and finally had a chance to visit (as they are closed on Sundays)! When I first walked in, I have to say I was confused by the line and lack of signage to figure out where to order, or what I can order. So I quickly walked around the section of the grocery store before circling back to the register. I ordered the jerk chicken (large) meal and the oxtail (large) meal and 3 curry chicken patties, and the total was only $32!! After trying so many different Caribbean restaurants throughout Atlanta, their prices can't be beat! The jerk chicken definitely has the right amount of spice, there was a kick to it. No complaint, except I wish there was additional sauce to the jerk chicken. We absolutely loved the oxtail, as the sauce was amazing on the rice and beans, and the plantains were a great addition to the meal. To be honest, I did not enjoy the slaw that they had on the side, will try to get something different on my next visit. I wish that the store kept a variety of the patties available, they were a 15 minute wait, so that prevented me from trying the other beef/veggie options. Will have to go back to try more of their other items! read more

I was really really wanting to love this place but it wasn't good AT ALL. I got 4 large oxtail plates and the oxtails were tiny and boney. Tasted nothing like the Caribbean food we are use to from up north. The veggies were completely unseasoned and dry as a chip. Almost like dehydrated veggies. The only savings grace on the plate was the plantain and even those were mediocre. Overall, it was a waste of $70. read more

As far as food, the ackee and saltfish is on point and the brown stew chicken is good! As far as the market, loved the selection and was really happy to find hibiscus tea bags. On the weekend we visited, there was loud music playing in the restaurant for some sort of event. The music was so loud, you could not hear yourself talk when ordering the food. read more

This place is amazing! Prices are reasonable and portions are very generous. I had the Jerk pork to go with rice and peas and the quality was exceptional. Easily one of the best Jamaican food I've had in Atlanta. Service was also very kind and friendly. Highly recommended :) read more

Grayson Caribbean Market - Caribbean Near Me - Lawrenceville, Georgia

Thank you God! Finalllllllly an authentic restaurant that doesn't skimp on their food either. The 2 guys that have been at the front when I come here are very nice. How I stumbled across this place: My son said, "Ma I have the taste for oxtails" Me: Google Jamaican Restaurants and see the nearest one to us with the highest ratings. **Son googles...I take a look... ..oh yes...I love seeing those stars in my eyes! So many stars I thought I'd possibly bumped my head. Lol Let's see if the hype is really what it says it is.. We go inside and I immediately thought ... this place is nice...it has a lot of Jamaican produce that I typically have to drive far to the market to buy. They sell oxtails that you can cook yourself plantains, Caribbean seasonings and drinks and much more. When I tell you the food came fast... I didn't think it was our order... My son and I both ordered the oxtails and he ordered extra plantains.. Y'all.. I got that food in my car and immediately knew that the food was going to taste amazing. Foodies understand where I coming from... I could taste Jamaica from the smell of the food. But my my my... when I actually sat down to partake...I opened my container and every bit of gravy was in that box... The rice and peas... MOIST! The oxtails melted in your mouth... the plantains tasted like that had just came straight outta Jamaica from the tree moments before it made its way into my box. We had been going to Ionies but no more.. this is our new Jamaican spot.. I mean the food was flavorful and plentiful. I'm here now writing the review as the sweet rhythms of Jamaica sound across the speakers.. actually the next day after discovering this hidden gem... Today I ordered jerk pork, jerk chicken, and fish and bammy. I will update my review once I have devoured it. read more

Service was friendly, portions were a pretty good size, and their stew chicken plate was very good. Although I like ky food spicy, my mom loved the fact that it wasnt very spicy like most but favorable. Prices range from 6-14, higher price for oxtail of course. I'd definitely recommend. read more

Grayson Caribbean Market - Stew chicken with rice, cabbage and plantains - Caribbean Near Me - Lawrenceville, Georgia

Man I swear..........The first time I went to this place I tried the stewed chicken. I was a fan of that also but wanted to wait until I tried the jerk chicken. MAN O MAN!!!! This is a taste I've been missing for a long time. Regular Caribbean places now does't do their jerked chicken on an outside grill the way it's supposed to be done and just do it inside and just add sauce to it. NOT THIS PLACE!! They ONLY do jerked chicken on Fridays and Saturdays and if you like authentic heat on your jerk chicken they definitely got it. THIS WILL BE MY SPOT EVERY FRIDAY OR SATURDAY from here on out!!! I bought some today just for my dinner for later and couldn't help but to taste it and now I'm feeling like a hooked crack head on this chicken. This is the best place from what I've seen near Dacula that has the true authentic taste for jerked chicken. You get a chance, stop through. read more

We're driving down Grayson Hwy looking for a decent take-out that isn't a chain or franchise. Looked to see if the Indian restaurant 2 doors down was finally open. Well if it was we would not have found this gem. The food was fresh & delicious, place is very clean, and inexpensive. Hubby had the Curry Goat with rice, cabbage and plantain. I had jerk chicken with same and a beef pie. Yum w Yum! Oh and the btw, the staff is delightful. Caution: Authentically spicy :-) read more

I absolutely loved the food that I had from this restaurant, the curry chicken and rice was delicious. I love being able to go and get authentic Caribbean food. The inside of the restaurant was very clean and the staff was friendly. I definitely recommend them if you're in the area and looking for something good to eat and food other than chain/ franchise type restaurants. read more

Came in with a taste for stew chicken and hubby was craving oxtails... this place did not disappoint. Service was great... food took a while to come out but boy was it worth the wait. Tasted almost as good as my Dad's, which is a major compliment !!!! Yet another reason to love Grayson!! We will absolutely be back. read more

The food is very good but the customer service from the man that works there is terrible. I think he's the owner but he's rude and unappreciative of his loyal customers. I've ignored his horrible attitude but during a pandemic he needs to make his customers feel like they matter. Because truth be told there several good Jamaican restaurants in the area. read more

I ordered the oxtail plate. The rice was dry and hard. I believe it was old. I went around lunch time.

I absolutely love Caribbean cuisine. Once I find a place that I love it's hard for me to switch to another. I recently move to the area and was in search of a new spot to satisfy my Caribbean craving. Being a die hard customer of Paulees Place in Marietta GA the place I find has some large shoes to fill. Well congrats Grayson Caribbean Market you now have a faithful customer. Tried the oxtails on my first visit will be back for the jerk chicken!!! read more

This place was phenomenal. I had a medium plate of curry chicken with a side of two beef patties. The patties were definitely the pinnacle of the meal, they were excellent flaky and freshly made. The medium was eight dollars and was perfect, but the only thing I could hope for was that there was more chicken on the medium meal. The best thing about this place was not only the food, but the excellent service. Not that this can be replicated, but I had forgot my credit card and they allowed me to come back and pay for the meal the next day, who in the world does that!!! Now, I am not sure they will always do that however it was extremely helpful in my situation and I felt like they deserved one the best reviews that I could give. It's a small local place, if you are in the Grayson Lawrenceville area be sure to give them a try! read more

Owner is great! Very pleasant and helpful. To me the food is great! I love chicken pattys and hers are always made with good meat. Nothing fatty like other pattys I have had. read more

Very convenient for me as I live close by. Lots of Caribbean goods to choose from other caribbean islands but lacking in stuff from Barbados. The food is ok. Am not impressed with the oxtails as the taste is not the authentic Jamaican flavor I'm used to. Will not be a frequent customer, but will return due to the convenience. read more

I just came to like Carribean/ Jamaican food, because I always thought it was too spicy! But after my first taste of the food here I'm hooked. The Oxtails are very good, and you get what you pay for! Go check this place out on Fridays! Great Hospitality!! Thank you! read more

My kids and I were looking for a place to eat around The area of our home without it being the same old to which we have become accustomed. My daughter suggested the Indian restaurant that opened so we stopped by. As I pulled into the parking space, I looked to my left to see this hidden gem that sold Jamaican food!! It is very difficult to find good Jamaican food and the grason/Lawrenceville area. My daughter and I jumped for joy with great hopes that this would not disappoint! As we waited for our food we talked with the delightful young lady at the register. She reassured us that we would be back for more. I told her we would see and she will see! The food is absolutely phenomenal. My daughter had Curry chicken and I had curry goat. It was more than I could say! They have a customer for as long as they are open, I am alive, or I live there. Usually you find Curry meals that are not seasoned well with little substance. Usually all bones! This was not the case here! The portion sizes were generous. There was one slight complaint. The peas and carrots medley could have been left off. There was not enough seasoning however; I didn't come for the peas and carrots! I came for the meat! LOL. Bravo Caribbean market! Sincerely, Your newly loyal customer! 6/1917 - ok, so now we have Bamboo right across the street whose oxtails and chicken is a little better. CM, you guys have to do something that makes you stand out. I'm not sure what that is however; I definitely don't want you guys to be outdone. You offer the ability to purchase authentic groceries but what of us who don't cook these foodstuff. Think hard.....please set yourself above. Your family vibe is what we need in this area!! read more

Everything about this place is wonderful! The food, the employees, the clean vicinity. You will feel right at home once you walk in. Great customer service. The owner is always so friendly! Love it here! I don't shop anywhere else. Great experience! The curry chicken and jerk chicken is absolutely delicious! I advise everyone to give this place a try! read more

There large oxtails are very minimum. When you pay for large oxtails you want a good portion NOT a large plate full of rice. BEWARE: U are paying for d rice NOT the oxtails themselves. read more
