I was out in Pembroke Pines for a computer training class and looked up Lunch Specials near me. Islander's Cafe popped up and I'm so happy that I tried it! They have like 5 lunch specials for $6.25 and what an amazing DEAL! I got the Jerk chicken and it was like 2-3 pieces of chicken with half take out container full of rice & peas and a choice of side (I got green beans)...all of it was so yummy! The woman serving up your choice of lunch specials was super sweet and helpful since I didn't know what some of the things were. You also got "gravy" on the rice & peas if you wanted it. I took some gravy from brown stew and it was delicious! A bottle of water was included with lunch special for $6.25...can't find a deal like this anywhere else! I will definitely go back to try another lunch special next time I'm in the area! read more

I always drove by this place when going to work and never had the opportunity to stop in. Today was my lucky day! I stopped in to get some lunch, and was shocked with the amount of people that came in and out of there! It's a tiny place, takeout only, and their service is quick! Let me tell you, I was only in there for about 10 min and a good 15 people went in and out! They have $10 lunch specials, and wow is the food delicious!!! The lunch specials come with a canned drink, or you can get a bottled water. I got the jerk chicken lunch special, but they have a huge selection of sides and sauces you can choose from! I'm so happy this place is on my way to work, I'll definitely be coming back more often!!! read more

I feel like she deserve to be charging us way more But she does. She doesn't see it like that. She cares about making sure we eat in proper food, the correct way at a reasonable price no matter what's going on the world we need more people like her. I've been to Islanders Café about five or six times. I tried almost everything she has and every time I try to food it got better and better and better from the curry chicken to the jerk chicken to the jerk chicken to the fried chicken rice the mac & cheese, the collard greens.

I fell in love with Caribbean food after living there for a few years. Tried this place based on the reviews. We had jerk chicken, curry chicken, and stew chicken. Those 5 stars reviews are 100% correct! Great food! Superb service! Super friendly staff! Very generous servings! Definitely will be back next time we're in the area. Highly recommended! read more

Islander's cafe is a Hollywood GEM ran by lovely chef Roseline. The food is always made fresh and hot with consistent flavors. The food is exceptional value for portions served, and I am a sucker for a good deal! There are so many options to select from for a quick grab and go lunch . You get a protein plus two sides and a drink for under $10bucks! Deal!!! Inflation proof here! The options I've tried are in my past 5 years as a regular. Fried pork chops-big meaty tasty not your baby chops. Fried chicken - seasoned savory batter not overly greasy Fried tilapia - light and crispy also seasoned well Curry chicken- delicious chunks of meat in a yellow curry perfect for rice Jerk chicken - tender moist with just the right amount of jerk. Brown stew chicken- OMG my favorite goto for chicken in sweet brown stew gravy mixed with rice & peas. The sides also include three different types of rice. Yellow rice, rice & peas, and white rice. Always happy that the rice is soft and hot and not dried out and greasy. There's also corn, cabbage, fried plantains, green beans, corn bread , and I'm sure there's a few more I'm missing. Dinner portions are also generous and take care of my hungry family. Thanks for feeding the neighborhood! read more

The service was excellent. No issues And it was a well run lunch spot. The food was not expensive. It was a great price for lunch. You can eat there there is minimal seating. read more

This was a decent place especially if you're looking for a good lunch takeout spot. The service was good and the food was surprisingly a bit bland. The cost was fair for the portion size I received. read more

Our family friend had them cater for their son's birthday party and we really loved he food. So when we were planning for my baby shower, we made sure we got their contact information. My Hubby placed the order in advance and we were able to pick up an hour before the event. My Hubby, knowing me well, ordered me a side of macaroni and cheese to myself. For the baby shower we had jerk chicken, brown stew chicken, and cabbage. The food was so delicious and myself and other guest especially raves about the macaroni and cheese. read more

The service was great, food was flavorful and great price if you catch the lunch special before it ends at 2pm!! No complaints for a home cooked meal @ $7!! read more

I wanted to like this place... like I really wanted to like this place, so much so that two stars is me "wanting to like this place." Anyone who has ever traveled the Caribbean knows the best places are off in the cut, not many aesthetics, the service is less than desirable, but the food is amazing! This place meets that criteria with one exception... The food is TERRIBLE. First of all this place sells more soul food than Island food. I went to this place 90 minutes before closing and the server basically told me "what you see is what you get; we are about to close." I had the "brown stew chicken" rice and peas and macaroni pie. The brown stew chicken tasted like Sweet Baby Rays BBQ chicken, the rice and peas was dry and cold and the macaroni was No Bueno. Most places I'd give another shot, but I'm sorry "Islanders" cafe... rename your place and I may come back...not expecting a taste of the Caribbean but a soul food pot luck. read more

It appears to be closed down, I've went there several days during their working hours but it was closed up with metal shutters.

First time trying lunch from this place. I got the Mac & cheese, brown rice, bbq chicken, and a side of the greens. Everything was very delicious and had amazing spices which gave it a top notch flavor. You can definitely tell that food was homemade. When the person who rang up the food told me the price for everything, I had to ask him if he was serious because it was very cheap. All in all this place will be my new go to place. read more

I dig it. It's like a Caribbean food / Soul Food fusion vibe. Really tasty. In the cut. I'm vegetarian so I just ordered sides but the sides were that good. I had rice & peas, with cabbage, MacNCheese, & plantains. If u eat meat, they definitely have alotta options too. - @MrGrim2daReapa read more

One of the best places for some real inlanders food. The Mac and cheese with the stew chicken is something to die for. I recommend if your ever in the area and would like a full belly and a reasonable price, visit islanders cafe: you will not be disappointed. read more
