Island Quizine on Liberty Road in Randallstown is THAT spot for Jamaican food. The red snapper and stew oxtails are always on point, flavorful, tender, and never disappointing. I love that they have both carryout and a sit-down restaurant right next to each other, so you've got options. The customer service is solid every time, and on certain days there's a DJ in the restaurant, which really turns it into a whole vibe. Hands down my go-to Jamaican food spot, highly recommend!! read more

I just paid $18 for the curry chicken roti and got 4 small pieces of chicken and literally barely any curry sauce to cover 1 piece... WTF!!! This was dry as sh7! read more

When I need a "likkle" snack I have to come here for a beef patty. They are hand made fresh every day with dairy free crust just like I like it. The service was face and the food was great! inside was very clean and smelled like jamaican goodness! I will return. read more

The staff I dealt with tonight were extremely rude, deplorably so. Between the girl on the register living on her phone (Dejanay) and calling a paying customer names, to the man child laughing about it. I don't recommend anyone to ever come to this location. Portions were small and the oxtail was bony. read more

I had to make another stop so I got oxtail again and this time I added some plantains and some greens. The service is always great. It only took five minutes until my food was ready for pick up and they rung us up as soon as we walked in and had a welcoming face, the ambience was great. The place is very colorful, and there were so many beverages to choose from read more

The food here was AMAZING ! I got the jerk chicken platter and YUM! The staff were really nice too. I'll definitely be back!

This place has got to find a way to cool off the waiting area. Feels like you're standing in 110 degrees while waiting for your food. They had the door open to air it out but the music from next door was so loud, was hard to hear anything. Got the peppered steak and Mac n cheese. The peppered steak was drowned in sauce with barely any steak in the dish. Mostly rice and vegetables. For $23 I expected a good amount of steak. The Mac n cheese tastes very bland. Like cafeteria/bad catering Mac n cheese. Was like they dumped as much cheese as possible to hide the lack of flavor. Update: just tried the red velvet and lemon cakes. Both had weird flavors. Hard to explain but they were dense and tasted off read more

Small, clean place. Service can be kind of slow at times. It's best to call ahead. The food is amazing. Kind of expensive, but worth it. My faves are their triple mix punch, reggae pasta, curry shrimp and brown stew chicken. read more

0/10 - Complete Waste of Time and Money I spent over 30 minutes just to pick up an order that was completely wrong and honestly inedible. I paid $27.66 for undercooked wings, no cabbage (which was supposed to come with the combo), and a meal that was nowhere near what I ordered. To make it worse, there was no receipt, no apology, and no accountability. I'm genuinely considering filing a chargeback--because I didn't pay almost $30 for food I couldn't even eat. Absolutely disappointed. Double check your order before leaving, because clearly they won't. I won't be returning. read more

I'm West Indian and this is closest to home that I will ever get. Best island food in my area. Lifetime consumer here.

Food is always good, big portions, well seasoned. Service is good everyone is friendly. Ambiance is good, cheerful

I first noticed Island Quisine a year or so ago while visiting other businesses close by. I was finally able to swing in and try them out. I had looked at their menu many times before but nothing really stood out for me and reviews didn't help with making a good selection either. My mother was looking for caribbean food for an event and mentioned she had tried them recently and was not impressed so I decided I must see what the deal was. Since my mother did not like the food, I decided I would try their pineapple ginger drink because it's my favorite drink. I went into the restaurant and waited for the lady behind the counter to finish what she was doing and placed my order for a simple large pineapple ginger drink. That was all I wanted because I had decided to get food from somewhere else. The best of both worlds right! It was $5 and some change and that was fine for what I haven't had in months. While the lady was preparing my drink, I made sure to let her know I did not want ice. She responded, I don't know what's wrong with y'all. I knew she was talking to me but I asked her to repeat herself, just to make sure and she said the same thing and added not wanting ice in your drinks. I told her I don't put ice in any of my drinks. She said the drink was so sweet. I thought to myself, why are you making it so sweet then? I let it go and took my drank and left out of the store. Also, I just paid you five dollars for a drink, FIVE DOLLARS! SMH That attitude she had definitely didn't make me want to come back even just for that drink and definitely not to try the food that I heard bad things about already. Oh yeah, the drink was bomb read more

They came to Michigan for the African festival, so I did not experience their restaurant. Let's start with the positive. The lady that helped me was very patient, helpful and accomodating. The portions are nice and the prices weren't as crazy as everyone else. Now, the food was very bland. I got the salmon + curry chicken with rice&peas and cabbage. The vegetable that came with salmon were very tasty, I wish I got that instead of the watery cabbage. The rice had 0 flavor. The curry chicken was decent. The salmon tastes fake. I love salmon and I eat it often. I am not sure if this is a different fish or just a very low quality salmon. Very, very disappointing. I haven't had quality Caribbean food in years. What is going on?! read more

25 plus tax ... for 4 oxtails that's mostly fat !! Wtf. Imma only give two starts because I don't complain about it. I should've said something but thought it was a prank read more

I attended an event Saturday March 14th 2026, in which Island Quizine Catered. The service was horrible. First, the lady Wendy who was over the food situation,(an employee of Island Quizine) was so, rude & mean to the event attendees. First, when we walked inside the dining area, there was a spoon full of dry salad on each plastic plate. Next, the menu consist of one small piece of greasy chicken that was cut in half, dry rice and a few beans, and a few string beans. The food was not seasoned, it was a mess. The lady Wendy was fussing with the young people who volunteered to help. One mentioned that the lady was unsanitary with the food and utensils. She claimed that Wendy was reusing the dirty plates and and cups giving them to the attendees. They eventually left the event early. The lady did not have enough food after these people paid their money. Also, she spilt a slice of cake in half and put it on each plate. They ran out of punch and lemonade. This was a Gospel event but the food was not cooked or given with love. However, the play that was put on was great, hopefully these people will never again use this restaurant for any of their events. read more

The pastry on the beef and veggie patties is delicious. But mostly I'm giving this five stars because they gave me a free glass of tropical fruit juice and it was fantastic. read more

The food was great. The cashier was OK not warm but she did what she was supposed to do. I guess again the food was great. It's a little expensive side but as long as my food taste great I'm OK with that and the Porsche size is decent as well read more

Food was cooked to order (delicious) The reason for the 4 1/2 star they didn't have jerk sauce so I had to go to another location to get jerk sauce and It's some good sauce read more

THANK YOU very large for coming through for me and my community. Alhamdulillah.n Our religiong, Islam, requires that salatul janazah/funeral prayer be completed with in 72 hours. Alhamdulillah, your business was able on short notice to cater the repass and most importantly ensure that the meat was halal. May Allah reward you for your kindness and the way you do business. Hundreds came to the janazah and repass. Most were from Brooklyn, NY and Baltimore. People asked about who catered the food. The food was fresh. The pineapple ginger drink was a hit. They were delighted to have Island Quizine. Again, i appreciate you and your team for meeting us at our point of need and your business ethnic. read more

So this is the second time I've ordered breakfast from this establishment and I've figured it out, if you order early in the morning online, you'll get some old food from the day before. I also ordered a carrot juice and had to throw it out because it was obviously spoiled. I do not recommend this place and won't return read more

I have been patronizing this establishment for years and they just keep getting better with time. Wasn't aware they sold breakfast , this shrimp omelette with breakfast potatoes is awesome. I love everything I get from this establishment, haven't had a bad experience yet and the food is always so fresh. It's actually the only Jamaican spot I eat from. Love them! read more

They used to have the best food. Not anymore. It's a hit or miss I went for lunch after not patronizing them for over a year. I ordered the jerk chicken. They gave me grilled chicken with absolutely no sauce on it. It was not completely done. Disappointed once again. read more

Island Quizine - Half done chicken with no sauce - Fast Food Near Me - Windsor Mill, Maryland

Was looking for food after The Preakness. Needed to feed 6 adults. Found this spot on a GPS car search. Pulled up about 10p. Real talk, I'm leery about ordering what I call "big-pot food" in the last hour or so of closing. To me, foods that have been cooked in large quantities in big pots early in the day will be over cooked, dry, etc., by closing time, but everyone was hungry and continuing to ride around Pikesville looking for food on a late Saturday night was a no go. I thought we were interested in a 1/2 pan of curry or jerk chicken, but when I was quoted $110..."Nah Sweetheart. Can't do that." I told her what I wanted & needed for my crew and she put the order together for us. We got both curry and brown stew chicken, cabbage, two kinds of rice, and some plantains for $65. Got back to the hotel & EVERYONE was pleased with the food and was giving it "Big-Ups." Thanks for the food and great customer service! read more

I ordered an item in June 2021 for $65 for a half tray of fried chicken I called September 11 and that item is now $110! for a 1/2 tray of fried chicken, that's ridiculous. I went to HipHop and paid 1/2 that price. However while most of their food lack Jamaican authenticity, it's one of the few places I can go to for a taste of home. I have been screwed over by the owner of this establishment (literally) and I don't need to be screwed again financially, $110 for a 1/2 tray of fried chicken is ridiculous! *Ladies if you want a job there avoid Owner he's a womanizer. read more

This place was recommended by a co-worker: decided to give it a try because I have had a taste for some curry chicken... WHAT A MISTAKE! WHO is running this place and HOW are they still in business?? I would NEVER recommend this place to ANYONE nor give them any more of my money. I have eaten all over the United States AND in numerous countries and I never been to an eatery where I had to wait nearly 2 hours for an order! AFTER placing an online order. No exaggeration, my order was placed a few minutes after 7pm and I finally walked out with my food, at approximately 9:25PM! At first, they could not find my order. I proceeded to show them my order status 4 times, and in return, all they managed to give me was the look of a deer starring into headlights and a shoulder shrug. Unfortunately, I repeatedly told AND showed proof of my online order and the only response I received, "Do you have the right restaurant?" Please tell me this is a joke!!! I kept looking at the blacked out glass windows waiting for a camera crew to come out and tell me that I'd been punked. The guy behind the counter continued talking on the phone, talking to the other workers, taking orders and joking around while counting money on the register. Finally he looked up and asked, "Oh, what did you order again? What's your name?" After going back and forth for 40 minutes, he claimed my food was coming "right up". Now the food was nothing to rave about however the value the money is debatable. I'm getting upset just thinking about how to complete this review, so I'm done! read more

Great Food and great atmosphere, and the staff is very friendly And the service was great too

The seasoning is not impressive! I ordered the oxtails and they were completely al dente. The meat was not tender at all we also ordered jerk chicken and i can truly say yuck! Wont be going back there again! read more

Highly dissappointed in the portion size of the lunch special for $9. Better off ordering the large dinner for extra $4 for a decent amount of food. I don't expect a large dinner portion for a lunch special, but at least make it reasonable in portion or price. I'd be embarrassed to serve this to anyone for that amount of money with a toddler size drink. Either add a little more food or come down on price. This is a total rip off for $9. read more

If I could give a lower rating I would! They deserve no stars!! The horror for me started when I called to order (I should've taken the hint) the young lady who answered the phone was not only rude. But very short with her responses and answered. She answered the phone and stated the specials they were offering. Just so happen she mentioned Pasta so I Ordered a salmon Rasta Pasta (like I always do). When I arrived she asked if she could help I attempt to mention I called she immediately started yelling (in my face) at someone in the back I'm assuming because no one was up the front. Once she's finished yelling I tell her my name and she proceeds to tell me my total is $24 and some change. Which is alarming not only because I've always gotten this and NEVER paid this much but also because she mentioned it was one of the "Specials" for today. So I asked her did they have a price increase I've never paid that much her response is "NO" I said well again I never paid that much. She says " WELL ITS A LARGE" I said I didn't ask for a large. This lady responds as she rolls her eyes and says "you didn't ask for a small either" I explained that I wasn't giving the option I just asked for a pasta she said "well you shoulda been clear" at this point I had no intentions of going back and forth with her or even patronizing this business again. It wasn't until I got home and was completely disgusted. Not only did I receive horrible customer service... was overcharged! But also they literally gave me a bowl of noodles. All the salmon you see in my picture is all I got! This place IS A SCAM! They will take your money and give you piss poor service. I DO NOT RECOMMEND! read more

Island Quizine - Salmon pasta with barley any salmon in it. What a waste - Fast Food Near Me - Windsor Mill, Maryland

I often patronized this particular restaurant before Covid. I've been once since Covid started in April of 2020. I assumed the ridiculous wait for food that was called in was due to them trying to enforce the Covid protocols. I haven't been back since. I went in today and called in the order. I ordered a large sorrel with my meal. Btw, a large drink is $8 plus tax. I prepaid for the order to cut down on the wait time. They now have a pick up area which I thought would make my order easier to pick up. I was wrong First the man in front of me had ordered a large soup which they had apparently already gotten messed up. Upon getting his second order he comes back in and its not even the correct soup ‍ When I ask for my order it's was supposedly being plated. 15 minutes later she comes with my order but no sorrel. She said they didn't have any but they charged me for it. I told her that should have been told to me before I was charged. She tried to get me to select another drink, but I didn't want anything else. She wanted me to go to the line where you place your orders for my refund. I told het since it wasn't my mistake that she needed to take the receipt over and have my receipt corrected. She did this. The cashier then gave me a refund in cash minus the tax of .48. When I asked her "wasn't this order taxed?" She opened the cash drawer and begrudgingly gave me the .48. I swear their customer service has gotten awful and they expect you just to accept it They don't take anything off for mistakes they make or toss an little something extra in your bag. Heck they don't even apologize for their mistake ‍ I'm so disappointed in them. They've got to do better. read more

I was blown away by both the food and the service. I asked the young woman at the counter what kind of chicken she recommended for a first-timer. She asked me to sit down, and said she would take care of me. After a few minutes, she brought out a sampler tray with curry, brown stewed and jerked chicken, along with a free tropical juice drink for me and my colleague. All 3 were good, but I went with a 1/4 lb jerked chicken (dark meat) and a side of rice & peas. It absolutely did not disappoint, in regards to price, portion size and flavor... absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked. Rock on, Island Quizine! I wish my work took me to this area more often! read more

We were planning a celebration and needed a caterer. We are loyal Island Quizine customers who frequently purchase take out orders and/or refer friends and family to the restaurant. We decided to try the catering component of the business for our party. We weren't sure what to expect but from the initial online catering request submission, to the interaction with the team regarding the proposed order and pricing estimate, to the food delivery on the day of the event, the entire experience exceeded our expectations. Donovan Murphy and his entire team are personable, pleasant, easy to work with and are committed to providing superior customer service.
