    Damn! That's some tasty food!…read more Bored of the usual rotation of restaurants, I thought I'd head into Spring Valley and give this place a try. They serve Jamaican food / Caribbean. Website? Nope. A menu? Not really. So I just drove there, went inside and nobody was around. Be patient - it's very chill here. Eventually, the chef/owner, I'm assuming, pops his head out and was such a delight! Very friendly, offered tastings of everything and explained what he was serving that day. The menu, you see, is just written on a dry erase board and fresh food is cooked daily. If he runs out, that's it. Today's menu started with stewed chicken, BBQ chicken, oxtail, curry goat, curry chicken, jerk pork, jerk chicken, Mac and cheese, callaloo, ackee and cow foot soup. There are about 10 or so tables inside and even a bar. Most people here seem to get takeout. On the tables were bottles of Jamaican scotch bonnet pepper sauce for extra kick. I tasted a couple things before deciding on the oxtail, the jerk pork and the curry chicken. The jerk here is the real deal! The aroma, spices, juiciness and flavor of charcoal grilling. OMG. So good! They sell food in small, medium and large containers. I opted for entrees that come with rice and beans, plus sauteed cabbage. Everything was delicious, but that jerk was outstanding. Prices seemed fair for the portions and freshness of the food. There are no written prices, but just ask and he'll happily convey them to you. Tropical Delicacy is in a very small strip mall, but I'd say there's adequate parking. Definitely give this one a try. He's open for lunch too and often sells out of things already after lunch is over.

    The food is very tasty and delicious. Portion size is very satisfying…read more The service is excellent as well as the surrounding is great indeed. I would keep recommending this restaurant over almost all Caribbean restaurants. Very friendly staff always. The ambiance is well chilling. Also very cool and comfy seating area.

    My husband happened to see a van with the logo for Akra Haitian Deli when we were driving in Queens…read moreand we saw they are located in Huntington area. We are looking to live out east and decided to take the drive to see how the Haitian food was! Honestly, we have tons of Caribbean food in Queens/New Hyde Park area, but Akra was well worth the drive! We ordered the Jerk Chicken with Duriz Djon Djon- 10/10 recommend. The jerk chicken wasn't too spicy, it was juicy and flavorful. They also gave three big pieces! The rice was also well cooked and not too salty. We also ordered Griot with Bannan peze- it's a requirement if you're going to eat at any Haitian establishment. The woman dishing out food out said "this meat is a little dry. Sorry." We ordered it anyway and it turned out to be pretty good! The bannan was a little soggy, but really that's part of ordering takeout for certain food items. Lastly, we bought two bottles of their lemonade and it was delicious! A great balance of sweet and tangy! We would definitely come back!

    I've tried Akra Deli multiple times, and while the food itself is delicious, the customer service…read morehas consistently been disappointing. On my first visit, everything was great. However, my next two experiences were extremely frustrating. During my boyfriend's early-morning visit, he was initially told there was no food available--even though the restaurant had just opened. Only after insisting did they offer limited options. Most recently, I ordered through Uber Eats and spent about $70. The containers were small and arrived half-filled. When I called to address the issue, the manager explained that because they pay Uber Eats fees, they don't provide full portions for delivery orders. That is not something any customer wants to hear, nor was any solution (like a coupon or replacement) offered. The food at Akra Deli tastes great, but the lack of consistency, poor customer service, and reduced portions for online orders make it hard to recommend. If you do choose to order, I strongly suggest going in person, otherwise you will likely not receive the amount of food you paid for. Overpriced and poor customer service!
