I didn't think I would find any unique food options when searching for food in La Plata but was pleasantly surprised when this restaurant popped up on my Yelp search. I had little time & a big appetite. The 5 stars & the pictures sold me. When I entered to pick up my order I was greeted with such pleasantries by everyone that worked behind the counter. The smell of the establishment hits you as soon as you open the front doors which is nostalgic of Sunday's dinner of thanksgiving. I was hoping between the delightful smell & the pictures that it lived up to the hype & it did. The portions are generous! I ordered the Cajun salmon with a side of Mac & greens. I loved how the salmon was smothered in sauce, it was different & soo good. It came with two pieces & I couldn't even finish the entire meal. My husband had the jerk platter (chicken & ribs) & he was very satisfied as well. He had leftovers as well. I will be sharing this hidden gem with everyone that I know because good soul/ Caribbean food, great hospitality, & great prices are hard to come by. read more

Ka'ribbean Fire - Cajun salmon with Mac n cheese & collard greens - Caribbean Near Me - La Plata, Maryland

Excellent jerk ribs. I do mean excellent. Their cabbage is pretty good as well. They're always busy, so order ahead if you want your food at a specific time, as they are a little slow. But considering how much I enjoy their jerk ribs, I'm willing to wait. I wish they sold jerk beef ribs. read more

I was in the mood for fish today and wanted to support a black owned business. They only had fried fish but the person at the front recommended the salmon. I opted for the salmon with greens and beans and rice. The greens are so salty I cannot even enjoy them. Not sure what type of sauce this is but it was spicy as well if I had been told this was how it came I would have asked for no sauce. On top of that there is a 6% sales tax and 4% service free. Not a happy customer. read more

Ka'ribbean Fire - Caribbean Near Me - La Plata, Maryland

This is a fairly new restaurant in the area. There was a bit of a wait as staff tried to keep up with the orders but let me tell you the wait was well worth it. DELICIOUS! Authentic Jamaican food. I had the chicken Rasta pasta and a side of the jerk chicken. My husband had the jerk salmon and shrimp and I wanted his food too! I'll definitely be going back but will order ahead to avoid the wait. read more

We were very excited to try this establishment however when entering signs simple states "seat yourself" which we did however after no one came to the table to take order after 15 Minutes we placed the order using the scan code menu thinking perhaps they were like other establishments where you order and they bring the food to table or call you name something. That was not the case! So after 15 wasted minutes and another hour of waiting of which time customers walked in ordered and left. Our in house or online order took OVER AN HOUR to make it complete. THIS WAS THE WORSE SERVICE EVER! Even after that the order was WRONG! I will never go back nor recommend this place. My bf , bff and I left highly disappointed and the food was no where near the quality of such a long wait. This is the exact reason I wait to give tips until food is received and inspected. read more

I absolutely love this restaurant. I stumbled upon this restaurant. I'm so glad I did. I had the dry rubbed ribs with the Mac & cheese, and cabbage. I must say the cabbage was cooked well but I didn't like the seasoning, but others may enjoy it. I really loved the ribs & Mac & cheese. My friend got the shrimp mac & cheese can carry chicken which he enjoyed. My 2nd. visit I got the same items except the cabbage. I added the peach cobbler which was different but I enjoyed it! My 3rd. visit I got the Jamaican patty & coco bread and it was delicious! I'm looking forward to trying additional menu items. My suggestion to other customers is to call ahead or you will wait a bit because they cook per order I believe, and it's worth it! read more

Ordered the Rasta pasta, upgraded to oxtail and got a side of crabcake eggrolls. The food was fantastic. I ordered takeout and it was ready in less than 15 minutes. read more

The staff was pleasant. I ordered my food to go. The restaurant was extremely busy and I waited about 39 minutes. Unfortunately my order was forgotten/loss. No worries the owner was pleasant and professional. She corrected the situation. She offered me additional food. I declined, things happen. That was a mistake on my part; the food was delicious. I should have ordered more lol. I recommend this restaurant. Be patient and you won't be disappointed. read more

The food is delicious. Nice BLACK WOMAN owned. I've had the seafood Rasta pasta, Cajun shrimp, and Cajun salmon! They have good desserts too

Love love love. A new favorite. So nice to have something in the area that's authentic and not a chain. The staff makes the experience even better bc they are down to earth and feel like family. read more

In my 50 plus years of life, I have never threw a plate of ox tails in the trash. Today was the day. Maybe they specialize in too many foods bbq, soul food and Caribbean. I ordered the ox tails and my god today that was the saltiest piece of meat I have ever tasted. I can't even identify the flavors and I been West Indian all my life. How do you mess up rice. The rice and peas had NO flavor. Also ordered a beef patty and it was Luke warm. I don't understand when I had to wait 30 minutes for the food. Maybe their soul food is better. I'll never know. I'm so disappointed and still hungry. Now I have to go cook. read more

Food is so good, worth every penny. Corn bread is the best I've ever had!! Definitely try this spot if you've never been.

The food was amazing! I mean everything, I tried the chicken & shrimp Rasta pasta; it was spicy but I'm all spice!!! Let me tell you, them damn COLLARDS were everything, probably taste better than ya granny's lmao! We also tried the fried whiting w MAC & Cabbage.....my my my, BOMB NO EXAGGERATION. The customer svc was on point, the cashier was polite & had great suggestions. Honestly, i was not let down. AT ALL!!! I would continue to visit this establishment when in the area. Oh don't forget to purchase some treats; the cupcakes were delicious. read more

My significant other and I went to Ka'ribbean Fire for take-out. The online menu looked incredible, so imagine my surprise to arrive and find out that smothered fried chicken and smothered pork chops aren't served. Do you know what is like to have your mind set on something and then it is not available? I am serious about food and was too devastated to order a different entrée. My significant other ordered oxtails with cabbage, rice and peas, and plantains. I got a beef patty and peach cobbler. I tasted a little of his oxtails and rice, which were tender and good. However, later that evening he had abdominal trouble. I ate the beef patty and was disappointed. The pastry was good but the interior meat was a paste consistency. I've had better both fresh and frozen. The peach cobbler which had my mouth watering was beyond disappointing. I was served a cup of too sweet peach cobbler filling and some peaches. That was not peach cobbler. Again, I've had better both fresh and frozen. This is a black owned small restaurant, so I want to support it and others. However, based on the above-mentioned, I am on the fence about returning but will give them a few months to pull everything together. I also forgot to mention the interior. This restaurant is really lovely and I believe due to COVID it was void of seating. However, I am sure once COVID restrictions lift, the dine-in experience will be amazing. read more

The taste of this food is almost as if I cooked it myself. Very familiar. The only thing I can say is that it's a little salty but besides that they are really delicious and have a great selection. Please keep serving good food and remain consistent. read more

The food is bomb!!! Staff are welcoming, friendly and personable! My number one caterer!!!

Went here for the first time today and it was amazing! The Cajun salmon melts in your mouth and the macaroni & cheese was perfect. My whole family loved it. The service was very fast and friendly. I will definitely be returning. read more

Hello, I visited after hearing good things, even though the reviews were mixed. I ordered the jerk ribs with Mac& cheese, yams and a order of seafood egg rolls. The portion size was good, the Mac was kind of dry but the yams were good. The egg rolls were soggy in the middle with some kind of cream sauce and it was dripping all over the place. I'm not going to say I won't go back but it won't be anytime soon. read more

Everything amazing except for the little bones in curry chicken. It wasn't that bad to me but it made it extremely hard for my daughter. Otherwise 5 stars!!! read more

I really enjoyed my meal today at this establishment! Cudo's to the cooks. I had the fried whiting & chicken, cabbage, Mac and cheese and plantains ! Yummy The owner explained that they ran out of a lot of items and apologized for the lack of variety. I completely understood since its the 3rd of July . I highly recommend this place and look forward to coming back! read more

Tried many entrees and was blow away by everything -Turkey Wings, jerk chicken, salmon and shrimp, oxtails. Don't forget the Henny Yams and Henny Peach Cobbler. The best food on the entire Rt 5 and Rt 301 Prince Georges thru Charles County read more

My favorite in Charles co so far food and staff amazing!!!!! Looking forward to going back read more

Fantastic food, with kind and helpful service. I love supporting family owned businesses and this one deserves all the attention. The collard greens were delicious, the Caribbean salmon portion was very generous, and the strawberry parfait was great! I love the addition of funnel cake. We will definitely become regulars. read more

The food is ALWAYS on point along with the great customer service. I eat here frequently like once or twice a week, & I've NEVER had any complaints. Try it, trust me you won't be disappointed!!! read more

Customer service here sucks - the cashier that had to hit the keys with her knuckles because her nails are too long, is snappy and rude. While offering business to every race, employ should learn not to be rude and snappy. Kindness, politeness and good customer service skills are priceless. It definitely should be applied here. Manager should inform employees on the importance of utilizing such. read more

The food and customer service is AMAZING! Please support this black owned business!! I come here every week and everyone is so friendly.

New to the area. Hate to post negative reviews, but this was just bad.....all I could think about was Restaurant Impossible and Bar Rescue please come here. Took over a half an hour to get food, so salty. We sat next to the bar, watched the "bartender" pour beers in a plastic cup so he could drink them. Seriously, have a better bar setup at home. Half the TVs were turned off, entertainment would have been nice with the long wait. Wanted the food to be great, it was uneven. Mac was great, collards were meh, cornbread amazing! Unfortunately food did not come close to lack of ambience and whatever that bar was supposed to be read more

A friend recommended this place and it was worth the drive out to LaPlata from DC. It's hard to pick what you want because the menu is super enticing. I went with the Jerk Ribs with Collards, Mac & Cheese and Yams. Everything was delicious! The Hennessy peach cobbler was BOMB! I'm ready to take another trip to the country! read more

Wow!! Chefs Paul & Nikki really go hard to please our bellies.They are so committed to making sure you have a happy experience. All the food is the !! Thank you Much. Started from the bottom of your basement now your here. Be back for More Ka'ribbean . Yo it's sooooooooooo YUMMY read more

We arrived excited to try something new with our family while celebrating a birthday. Only to receive fries and bread and beef patties an hour later. Most food was thrown out but was not mentioned because we wanted to support a small black business. Unfortunately, when we got out to the parking lot we were met by a screaming lady yelling at us. She then proceeded to have the rest of the staff come out yelling cussing and acting crazy threatening us because she didn't like the response she got. Once the police were called they quickly realized it was a false claim as we were not the aggressors. It's so unfortunate how black businesses are unable to succeed due to the lack of customer service and professionalism. I take pride in being able to share new businesses with others. Trust when this business goes down you will remember this comment right here. I have never experienced this! I'll take negril or dat jerk any day! Trust everyone will know what happened . Including all the kids your neighbors and those who I know ten thumbs down!! There's no police report !! Please show the video!! You haven't posted it because you'll see your staff coming outside yelling! Yup we'll be posting ! Not only that but you're doing a good job destroying your business yourself !!! Lol lol lol lol!!! lol funny ! Seems like you're already reaping!! read more

KA'RIBBEAN FIRE is on FIRE, the very best. Great Service from the Mother, Cashiers, & Staff. Always PATIENT AND PLEASANT. I Loved that you're ask to check your orders before leaving. I only have one thing on my mind, getting home to this AWESOME FOOD. Keep It Up, Many Blessings to You All read more

This is the best food in Charles County Maryland hands down. Perfect mix of Caribbean and Soul food. We eat here regularly and the food is always good. Try the Big Louie, it is a whole chicken a slab of ribs and three sides for $60. They also have something no one has, Jerk Ribs and they are delicious. read more

The wait was entirely too long. The owner was arguing with her staff the entire visit. Customer service training is definitely needed here.
