The food was delicious. This restaurant was recommended by Everett. We were pleasantly surprised. We will definitely order from here again. I only wish that my in restaurant dining experience my dinner would've come out on plates with silverware instead of styrofoam and plastic fork. read more

The Jamaican food is so authentic and made fresh. This is the only Jamaican restaurant in Charlotte I will go back to.

The food here is very Tasty & Seasoned well good size portions too The Jerk Chicken is Very Good and now I'm going to try there Jerk Shrimp with Collard Greens, Fried Plantains and Candied Yams read more

Based on my first experience I give them a 3 but I would go back. I would just order something different this time. I ordered the BBQ Jerk Chicken. It was ok but I wouldn't order it again. I also ordered fried plantain and they gave me broiled plantains, the portions were cool so no complaints there. There will be a 2nd part to this review when I visit again. read more

Food was very good. The price was pretty reasonable and the amount of food is not bad at all. This is not my first time, and it won't be my last. I highly recommend. If you're in the mood for Caribbean to go by here you will not be disappointed and the location is definitely a plus. read more

The oxtail, jerk chicken, beef patties w/coco bread, rum cake, rice & peas, and cabbage are delicious and authentic Jamaican fare. The ambience is that of a roadside cafe you would find anywhere on Jamaica, the staff (which seem to be composed of mainly family members) is knowledgeable, courteous, friendly and welcoming. I would recommend this place whole heartedly!!! read more

ordered curry goat and all I got was bones why?that was a lot of money for the bones I received.

The small little Belmont neighborhood tucked between Plaza Midwood and NoDA gained another amazing restaurant. Only steps away from Ace No 3 and Bottle and Bloom, you can now get authentic Jamaican food. We have been twice in the last 2 weeks because the food and service is just that good. The jerk sauce is out of this world. The cabbage and greens are flavorful, the Mac and cheese is juicy and the Patties are to die for! I tried the curry chicken and the beef Patty and I couldn't tell you which one was better. They also have a back patio and a popular take out counter. Add this delicious new place to your list of places to eat! read more

Food is worth it but take It to go! Food was delicious. We got small trays of Curry goat with mac and cheese and Oxtail and plantain. The small sizes were well portioned. I think pricing was fair. My friend got the Ting drink that was pink, she liked it. The atmosphere was okay: kids were running around (unknown who they belonged to), random stuff in places, and there's an outside but idk what was going out there. I liked the service. The guy was friendly but don't expect 5 star Michelin service. He greeted us, asked us if we were ready, took our order, brought our food to the table and done. I loved his fashion! read more

Food was nasty the last two times I ordered. I ordered jerk chicken from there and I thought it was just the char from the grill at first but it had a weird sour smell so I tried the chicken and it tasted just how it smelled old sour and rotten. But me being a forgiving person I always give things a chance so a week or so after that I tried it again and ordered the jerk chicken rice and peas again and had the same exact old sour smell and taste again!!! read more

My friend and I just left the panthers game looking for some Caribbean food since we had drove down from Greensboro and were hungry. At first was a little skeptical because it wasn't located on the beaten path. That all went away when the they brung my plate. Jerk chicken with peas and rice, and collard greens. OMG! My friend had the curry shrimp and he couldn't believe it! That dam good. I took oxtails with cabbage and peas& rice home to the wife and daughter. As they stated "this is the best Caribbean food we had since moving from Brooklyn, NY. I'm trying to convince them to open a spot in Greensboro. And you have got to try the fish soup. read more

Yeah... this place is trash. The chicken was either old chicken that was kept warm or overcooked. It's also not "jerk" but more of a BBQ flavored jerk style. I won't be trying again. read more

Based on the mixed reviews, I think the quality of the food depends on when you visit. I went on a Sat, the place was completely empty, and none of the food was fresh. They also forgot some of my order so I had to go back and get the missing items. The patty was super stale and had very little meat in it. The jerk chicken tasted old as well and so it went right in the trash along with the rice and peas. I was determined to salvage something so I ate the mac & cheese and plantains but both were mediocre. As a fellow Caribbean, I was really hoping to find my go to spot, but I'll have to keep searching. read more

Hillside Caribbean Cuisine - Beef Patties - Caribbean Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

The food is very good and the staff is super friendly. I have been to this restaurant 3x and all 3x the food was the same-Tasty. I had the jerk chicken with a spice level of "spicy", they do ask you what spice level you prefer. Let's say my sinuses were open soooo mission accomplished. My sides were collard greens the first 2x and cabbage on my 3x and I must say the collards are a winner winner, the cabbage was good (rate-3 of of 5 stars) but I'll forever get the collard greens. The coco bread was quite good as well. I've been looking for a good Jamaican spot. read more

Great food great people! This Jamaican spot just opened a block away from Ace No 3 and Sweet Lew's and it's out of this world! It's the first place to be redeveloped on the corner of Pegram and Belmont, but it's worth taking a walk over. The owner is so nice! It seems like it's mainly a takeout spot at the moment, but they are working on having a cool outdoor patio, a pool table and more that will be jumping once they have their liquor license. But enough fluff: how's the food? It's AMAZING! The best Jamaican food I've had since visiting Jamaica on vacation. The Jerk Chicken is smoked perfectly and served with rice and peas and your choice of more sides! The Jerk Chicken is served sauced, which to me is the best possible way to eat it. The sides are great too: greens, cabbage, Mac & cheese, plantains and more! They also have beef patties and authentic Jamaican sodas. Once this place serves Red Stripe you won't be able to get me off their back patio while the chef smokes more chicken and Reggae music is bumping! read more

Hillside Caribbean Cuisine - Jerk Chicken platter with rice and peas, and Mac & cheese. - Caribbean Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

The best Jamaican food I've had in Charlotte! I ordered the jerk chicken w/ rice and peas and plantains to go. The chicken is very spicy but had a really good flavor! The plantains were great too, flavorful and not dry like some of the other spots in Charlotte. Definitely will be coming back, however I don't think I would dine in, not the best ambiance lol. read more

They were very friendly and food was good portions and well seasoned. Oxtail were very good.

I've eaten both in person & ordered from here. Food is always hot & taste great. Inside is built like a club/event space (featuring a pool table & juke box) but there was plenty of seating and it was clean. When eating in person food is serviced in to-go boxes; fine with me especially since sometimes I have left overs! The only reason I can't give 5 stars is due to, when getting delivered, I've noticed my food (jerk chicken plate specifically) has a lot more bones than when I go in person. Could be a coincidence...but I'd think not as much as I've eaten here. Definitely still a place I'd recommended! read more

Please I advise don't go here !!! They serve old stale food. The food doesn't have any taste at all ! I ordered a beef patty I literally took one bite from it and spit it back out because the patty had no taste and wasn't fresh at all. They would take your order and have you waiting there for 45 minutes for stale food with no taste please avoid this place by means. read more

I got the Oxtails with Mac & Cheese and Yams for probably the best price for the quality in the entire city, I don't wanna consider myself a regular but i'm for sure not gonna stop coming here, i've recommended this spot to a lot of my people and rest assured none have been disappointed! read more

The jerk chicken pasta had good flavor but wayyy too much oil in it, my mom had to come home and drain it, the portions are good but not so much the food. The jerk chicken is chopped oddly into small dry pieces. I would rather go to Caribbean Hut read more

Incredible Jamaican food from a small hole in the wall place. The curry goat was incredible

I understand the saying about the customer service at Jamaica restaurants but this one, absolutely not will I come here again. If I'm giving you my business and you're handling my food. There is no reason why the hospitality should be sooo poor, especially when the food is not even good. I will not be giving my hard earn money to this business again. read more
