I've had the hardest time finding consistently good Caribbean takeout food in NJ, so one day I…read moredecided to go with something familiar, Golden Krust, and I'm so glad I did. Back in NYC, Golden Krust is usually the go to spot for patties, but this location has completely changed my perspective because the full menu is worth exploring. Every time I've ordered, the food has been fresh, flavorful and consistently good. Whether it's the curry dishes, jerk chicken, oxtail, soups, porridge, or their variety of patties, from beef to vegetable, everything has been satisfying. They also stock Caribbean favorites in the fridge, like carrot juice, which is the perfect addition to the meal. One thing that genuinely surprised me was the customer service. I wasn't expecting much the first time I walked in, but every visit has been pleasant. The staff is friendly, my orders are accurate, and the service is consistently good. And, if you know Caribbean take out restaurants, you know the joke: most times the best food comes with the roughest customer service. Thankfully, that's not the case here. The warm service actually matches the quality of food, and that's one of the reasons I keep coming back. To top it off, parking is available, and there's even a drive thru, which makes grabbing a quick meal even more convenient. If you've been searching for solid Caribbean takeout, this location is definitely worth a visit.

Stopped into Golden Krust today for a quick bite, and it delivered exactly what I needed -- fast,…read moreconvenient, and satisfying without any fuss. I ordered the spinach patty along with cocoa bread and a saltfish fritter. The fritter was decent -- nothing particularly standout, but solid enough to enjoy. The spinach patty, on the other hand, remains a reliable choice. Flavorful and well-seasoned as usual, though the crust was a bit on the harder side this time. Golden Krust is definitely at its best when you catch the patties fresh out of the oven; that's when the texture really shines. The cocoa bread did its job -- soft, slightly sweet, and perfect for balancing the savory bites. Service was friendly and efficient, the restaurant was clean, and the turnaround time for food was quick, which is exactly what you hope for in a grab-and-go stop. Overall, no complaints. It's not a gourmet experience, but it's consistent, convenient, and hits the spot when you're craving a quick Caribbean snack.

Stopped by this roti spot after seeing that they advertised doubles and salt and bake -- I went in…read morespecifically excited to try the salt and bake. Unfortunately, they were out when I arrived, which was a bit of a letdown since that was the main reason for my visit. That said, I pivoted and ordered a double instead, and it turned out to be a solid choice. The double was flavorful, especially with the added peppers, and everything tasted fresh and well-seasoned. At just $3, it's hard to argue with the value -- a very fair price for a quick, satisfying bite. Overall, the food itself was good and definitely scratched the Caribbean street-food itch. The ambiance was standard and clean. My only real disappointment was the lack of salt and bake, since it's something I was genuinely looking forward to trying. Still, if you're in the area and craving an affordable, tasty double, this spot delivers. I'll likely give it another shot in hopes of catching the full menu next time.

When my favorite Roti shop went out of business shortly after Covid, I could not find a place to…read moreget my Roti and Doubles from until Down D Island Roti shop opened. Food is always fresh. The doubles sell out fast best to go early or call to order and let them know when you will be in to pick up. The owner is so sweet and it's always a pleasure talking to her when I go. They do have limited seating inside but I have always done takeout.

I definitely think Oga's Jamaican Cuisine is truly a hidden gem in the Plainfield area. I saw it…read moreonline but there were no pictures or reviews on Yelp, so at first I was skeptical to try it. My mindset was in the spirit of supporting Black Owned Businesses, I should give it a try and promote it because this pandemic has really affected some many businesses. So I got a my favorite curry chicken roti and beef patties, I missed out on getting the jerk chicken patty because it had just sold out. I was very impressed with how the beef patties looked, they were nice and fluffy with beef filling up the inside. It wasn't too flaky and in my opinion they were just perfect! The curry chicken roti was definitely a winner! Inside a roti, you will find well seasoned curry chicken mixed with potatoes and I just loved the flavor! I'm getting hungry just thinking about it and I wish I could turn back the hands of time and eat it all over again lol. They have very affordable prices and you get good quality food so you won't be disappointed that's for sure. So I'm honored to be the first one to post pictures and do a review because they deserve it! Check them out and enjoy some real Jamaican food!

The oxtail is tender, the curry chicken is flavorful, and the mac and cheese is pretty good too. There's only street parking, but I don't mind it because i'm typically in and out unless there's a line. If you're looking to get a beef patty or another specific food, I recommend to call ahead of time and check if they've run out or not. It's more of a take out place so it's small inside, but that's ok because I'd rather enjoy the food at home anyway.
