Haven't been able to eat this for years as so many use flour (celiac ...not avoiding it to be trendy) even his gravy is flour / gluten free. Local people support this guy!! His food is on an entirely different level.

I came across this restaurant on my way home a couple of months ago. I have been meaning to stop by…read moreand finally had a chance to do that tonight. The owner was really kind and took his time to go over the menu with me. I ordered the oxtail, rice and peas, cabbage, and plantains and it was so good and tasty. I'm so happy there's a new Jamaican spot right here in Milford as I have been traveling to Stratford and New Haven for authentic Caribbean food. I will be back to explore the rest of the menu and try out their patties.

My wife and I were both off from work today and decided to go to Breakfast. We live in New Haven…read moreand like to travel out of the city to try new places. Stratford Skillet is amazing. As soon as we pulled into the parking and saw two police officers and at least four to five people from nearby businesses enter we knew we chose the right place. My wife had the cinnamon raisin French toast and I had the same thing I always get so I can make a good comparison (two eggs over easy, hash browns, rye toast, bacon and a side of sausage) Eggs were cooked to perfection, the bacon was just right, the sausage links were some of the best I have had in a long time, the hash browns were made with peppers and onions and were cooked just right The staff gave us the perfect amount of service while not being over the top. The ambiance was one of calm and you could tell the staff was relaxed Upon leaving we said our goodbye and thank you and a gentleman behind the front counter who was speaking with the Stratford Officers stopped for a minute and thanked us and told us to be safe in our travels this morning. I can assume he was the owner and, if so, I can see where his staff gets their training My wife and I felt appreciated in that moment. He and the staff had no idea if we were new in town, people passing through or we came in from a different town they truly made us feel welcome and we will certainly be returning Maybe this upcoming Sunday morning!! P.S. the coffee was excellent also

We stumbled upon this place over the weekend and so happy we did! They're known for their skillets…read morewhich my friends got 2 of - can't remember exactly which ones but one was a pastrami skillet that came with eggs homefries and pastrami on an iron pan. We ordered the pumpkin pancakes and the biscuits and gravy to share and they were so good and our favorite at the table. My friend and I got the egg salad sandwich on a croissant which sounded amazing but was not tasty. It lacked simple seasonings - that's the only negative. Prices were decent, service was great - we didn't have to wait to sit down, we walked in and looked for our own table... our waitress was friendly and recommended dishes for us to try. I'd def go back next time we are in the area.

Not sure if this restaurant goes by the name Family Spice or 4 Seasons Jerk Center, but either way…read morethe food was fabulous! Cozy Jamaican spot with warm, welcoming service. I was excited by the variety and ordered curry goat, salt mackerel, and ackee & saltfish--even though my combo wasn't on the menu, the owner kindly made it happen. Everything was flavorful and satisfying, with bold, home-cooked vibes. Can't wait to return and explore more of the menu.

The food is always good and Friday's are my favorite when they have BBQ Fried Chicken, that's right BBQ Fried Chicken!! They serve, chicken, fish, stew, rice & beans curry Chicken / Ox Tail. It's a small place, has a few tables inside and tables outside. The restaurant is off the main road in a neighborhood, very casual.

LOVE LOVE LOVE THE PASTA also has jerk chicken in it.. very flavorful with a little spice to it.read more

The food I had was so good. I ordered the small rasta pasta and a 2 piece chicken chopped up. The…read moregentleman was very patient with me as I tried to decide on sizes based of pricing. I took his advice and put "awesome sauce" on the chicken. Then I asked for some jerk sauce as well because I was looking for spice. The Rasta Pasta!!!!!!! Uggghhh delicious!!!!! I enjoyed the long slices of red pepper and carrots (still had a light crunch to it). The chicken was tasty my only complaint is that it was lukewarm. I like my food hot but this wasn't even regular hot inspite of it being on a warming tray. Well, my other CONS, which I totally understand because of the current economy; but the prices are steep in my opinion. Also, they only take CASH or CASHAPP. I wouldn't recommend sitting in to eat even though they have about 2 or 3 chairs with a shelf table along the wall.

I first tried Cibus back in August of 2025 for a quick drink and appetizers, so when my friends…read moreasked where we should go for dinner, I didn't hesitate to suggest it. I may add that I live 90 minutes from here and only come to this town 1-3 times a year. So, my friends usually take my suggestions and a group of eight of us showed up on a Saturday night with no reservation, and somehow the universe blessed us with a table. The place was packed, even the bar had people standing around it; so we knew we were in for a good night. One thing I loved about Cibus that night, is the crowd. It's a great mix of Hispanic and non‑Hispanic diners, which tells you the food speaks to everyone. The décor is warm and inviting, and the dimmed evening lighting gives it that cozy, "we're about to eat well" vibe. Parking was easy too. I have to admit I thought it may be harder to find parking but we found a spot right behind the restaurant, though street parking is also an option, but was packed. Our server, David, deserves his own shout‑out. Super patient, friendly, and ready with answers for every question we threw at him. He checked on us often without hovering, and everyone at the table agreed he did an excellent job. Now, the food...my favorite part. If you've read my reviews before, you know I eat everything but have a soft spot for Asian cuisine. And even though I'm Hispanic, I rarely go out for Hispanic food because I cook it well at home and most places don't impress me. Cibus, however, did not disappoint. Not one dish missed the mark, and the whole table agreed. We even ordered extra food to take home. We started with the Garlic Shrimp with Mofongo. The creamy orange sauce caught me off guard because it's not the usual style, but it worked beautifully. The flavors were balanced, the mofongo wasn't dry (thank you!), and the shrimp were cooked perfectly. We liked it so much we ordered multiple plates of this one; plus two Cuban sandwiches to go. The Cuban was tasty, though it could use a little more meat and sauce. The Ropa Vieja was another hit. Plenty of meat, plenty of sauce, and the black beans were flavorful. A sprinkle of fresh cilantro on top would have made it perfect, but that's just me being picky with my extra flavors and aroma. We also had the ceviche, the trio of little mofongos, and the Chips and Guacamole -- and yes, they make their tortilla and plantain chips in‑house. Not a single crumb survived. I tried the Tostones Sliders with pork, and I wouldn't change a thing. They were loaded with meat, had the right amount of veggies and sauce, and were just delicious. The only dish that didn't wow me was the Maduro with cheese. I love maduros, but the melted mozzarella felt a little plain. There's so much potential here, instead of Mozart maybe try some queso Mexicano, a small side of meat sauce, chimichurri sauce, or even a spicy drizzle could take it to the next level. Speaking of spice, I asked for hot sauce and was surprised to get a watered‑down Frank's RedHot. For a Latin fusion restaurant, something like Cholula, El Yucateco, or Tapatío would fit the Latin fusion theme so much better and elevate the dishes. But overall, Cibus is doing so many things right -- great service, great food, great atmosphere. I'm already planning my next visit and bringing new people with me at end of May.

Second time here...first time dining in. Came here for a family member's birthday dinner…read more Went on a Sunday evening with a group of seven. The restaurant midsized, it's nicely decorated, clean, and good for groups too. The staff were very friendly, food was good, however the waitress was ok. She forgot to bring my appetizer and forgot to place my to-go meal in time of the kitchen closing. The waitress was apologetic and I understand humans forget things from time to time when you're busy. However, this evening was less than half full and when we left it was near closing time...only a couple tables were still there. The least they could have done was comp my meal or have the manager stop by to apologize. But that didn't happen, I just didn't want to make a fuss...so I paid the bill and time will tell if there is another visit in the future.

IGNORE the very few low ratings. Please!…read more If you are going to take the time to take a picture, upload it, and complain, then you should take a small portion of that time and calmly explain to management your concerns, that is how things get better. I have ordered from here many times, staple being the jerk chicken. Zero complaints other than they are closed on Saturday's which makes sense. Food is delicious and you would think that you were chilling out. Everything was FRESH, which is one of my most important and challenging characteristic from any restaurant. You would think that your grandmother spent two days cooking this just for you. 5/5 easy. Support your local family-owned businesses, if not, there is cheap horrible chinese takeout around the corner. Yuck
