Was nothing like I remembered. Very disappointed. Was on a work adventure and remembered this place was close by. Today's visit was very disappointing. My food was bland, tasteless and the Mac and cheese was so hard...like it had been sitting out. Canned yams?!!! Canned greens?!!!!! A sweet potato pie that was missing sweet potatoes! I should've read the reviews to see if they were still good before venturing over :((((((( I felt so bad for suggesting this place to my coworker for lunch. I told her I definitely have to treat her to a meal soon to make up for this! Literally threw my meal out on the way out the door! Smh...happy yelping! read more

Peaches was across the street from a venue that we utilized and thought we'd check them out! How sweet is the owner, she's a delight! We ended up asking her to cater the event, which got nothing but good feedback. The restaurant has family style seating and a to-go bar area with a tablet to order from. We ordered the: Jerk chicken pasta Seafood pasta Jerk salmon w/ Mac and cheese Cocoa bread Side salad Carrot cake (DELICIOUS) Catered: Salmon Meatloaf ( the star of the show) Chicken wings Mac and cheese Wonderful staff and would definitely use their catering services again. read more

The food is good don't get me wrong it's just that wait for the food that irks me to my core....so don't go there on an empty stomach or in a rush to get back to work because you'd never make it, ugh I will say that if you got some time, stay for the stuffed salmon with crabmeat & shrimp (1/2 price on Tuesday's), the mac n cheese which is very cheesy & the collards YUM Also check out their craft drinks (no free refills) and I haven't had a dessert from there yet that was simply delicious (even the oatmeal cookies) Just beware of your timing ! read more

Food is good. Had the curry goat, Mac and cheese and cabbage. Got the jerk wings and beef patties to go as well as the coco bread. Everything tasted good but being from the Caribbean myself I'm partial to my own cooking. Service was a little slow but the gentle lady at the register was very pleasant although some customers were complaining. People need to be kind especially to gentle folk. The restaurant was very clean especially the restroom. My wife was a former Health Inspector and even commented on their cleanliness. I would definitely go back especially for their patties and coco bread. read more

Peaches Kitchen & Catering - Curry goat lunch - Caribbean Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I love this place...like I have never had anything that wasn't absolutely delicious here. Some days I'll stop in just for a chicken curry patty which not only tastes good but is also cheap! The goat curry is my absolute fave- along with a sweet potato and Mac n cheese as a side. The people who work here are so kind and welcoming. This is really a gem of a restaurant read more

Peaches Kitchen & Catering - Curry Goat Lunch - Caribbean Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Peaches... get an Auntie in the kitchen. Now why would yall send me canned sweet potatoes, canned greens, and Mac n cheese with a weird cheese mixture. Had the nerve to label them as southern inspired. I'm really let down (being from the south) I hoped for better. The stuffed Salmon was good. Had some scales on the skin but I dealt. read more

Stop by Peaches Kitchen this week to pick up some Oxtail and Rice and peas. They did not disappoint. The restaurant appears to be recently remodeled; I like the new look and feel of the place. I did not have to wait long for my food to be served. My meal was just as savory and delicious as I remembered. It totally hit the spot. I enjoyed the whole experience and can't wait to go back again. read more

I've been a fan of Peaches for some time now! I will sing their good graces from the mountain top! My favorite dish to get is the jerk chicken Alfredo pasta. It comes with either a side salad or garlic bread. That pasta used to have me tearing up after like two bites. The jerk was jerkinnn, honey. This last time I had it, it wasn't as hot but still packed a punch. I ordered to-go, so as pictured the jerk sauce came on the side. The next time I ordered, I got the chicken stuffed with crabmeat and shrimp, cabbage, and curry potatoes. Everything was exceptional. But baby, those curry potatoes?? God sent. Sometimes the food tastes awhile to be made, unless you're ordering from the hot bar. Regardless of how long it tastes, I can assure you it's made with love. read more

Had the stuff chicken breast with crab and shrimp on Tuesday. It's freshly made and taste amazing. You can never go wrong with them. Great customer service. I had a veggie platter as well with White rice (curry ) on my rice with Collard greens and Mac and cheese. Amazing!! read more

The snap back is real y'all. CLEARLY this place only exists because of the food (which ISN'T all that) because the customer service is terrible. The beef rib dish is out of this world delicious but the salmon was dry due to it being overcooked and the shrimp Alfredo penne was overcooked as well. I came here to pick up orders that I placed online and I stood at the register for ten minutes and wasn't acknowledged. When I pointed out that I had been standing there without being acknowledged the older lady snapped back at me saying, "You say you've been standing here for ten minutes and no one said anything to you! Well what do you want?!" Nothing ma'am, I'm good. read more

RUN!!! Don't waste your time or money. The curry chicken taste like it was cooked in water. No seasoning or flavor. The Mac and cheese is worse than box Mac and cheese. read more

Peaches Kitchen & Catering - Run!!! Don't waste your time or money. The worse curry chicken and mac and cheese I've ever had. It has no flavor and lacks seasoning. - Caribbean Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

It was horrible we ordered a few things like Mac and cheese chocolate cake and ginger beer but they didn't deliver the ginger beer in fact they actually put in red velvet cake instead I hate velvet cake and we did not order it read more

The food is ok it's a spin on Jamaican food with an American tastebuds flex, but what I can say is (if you in a rush think twice) they wait time for the food is lengthy. read more

Great customer service and menu selection. Food is always great and flavorful. The price is very reasonable.

I can't believe I didn't know that this place existed! After much hype from my Sorors, and after meeting Miss Peaches herself, I decided to check it out. I ordered the Saturday special -beef short ribs- with garlic mashed potatoes and cabbage. I also ordered a slice of coconut cake. I came in not long after they opened and took about 20 minutes or so for me to get my order. Not a terrible wait, but I'm sure it's much longer when they're busy so it might be a good idea to call ahead. If you're doing takeout, there's a tablet in the front of the store where you can place your order and pay (I'm really starting to get into this contactless thing. I hope it catches on in more places). As for the food, be the beef short rib was really good. Good portion, tender, really good flavor. The only complaint I had is that my piece was really fatty. Not a deal-breaker, but I was a little disappointed that my rib wasn't as big as I thought when I stripped all the fat away. Oh well... It was still filling. The mashed potatoes were good, and I liked that they left a little crunch in the cabbage, as well. I have been craving coconut cake for weeks now and was so happy to see that they sold it. Overall the cake was decent. The cake part itself was a little dense and just the slightest bit dry, but it was enough to calm my craving. The menu here is extensive so I'm looking forward to trying some of their other offerings. read more

I ordered the stuffed salmon with crab and shrimp, the shrimp was overcooked and the salmon was spoiled. I also had greens and mac and cheese for my sides, the greens were disgusting(no flavor) and the mac and cheese had no cheese. read more

First and foremost please, please have patience with the staff. Majority of the food is made fresh so it will take a little longer and main staff are older so show some respect and patience. thank you lol Regarding the food, it's worth the wait period. I've never had anything that wasn't good lol so give 'em a try. I'm originally from NYC you know we don't have patience lol read more

You need to come here! I ordered from here for my Jamaican themed engagement party (with over 100 people) and when I tell you the gods was a HIT. From the Mac and cheese, the salmon balls, oxtail, jerk chicken, greens, and cabbage! Sheesh! This place is NO joke. Plus the price is very reasonable for what you order. The service is amazing. Even got an opportunity to meet peaches herself read more

I always order from here every week. I called at 12:50 for ackee and salt fish. I was on hold for 20 minutes. I came into the store physically while still being on hold. At 1:10 I come in and was told they stopped making what I requested at 1:00 pm.. so I drove 20 minutes to be told that I can not order what I wanted... if I wasn't on hold for 20 minutes I could have placed my order in time. I was told that I was on hold for 20 minutes because it was busy. When I walked in it was completely empty and I was still on hold. Very disappointing! read more

One of the best mac & cheeses I've had in a while!! Wow this was an incredible meal! Peaches is a Black-owned business & serves up delicious Jamaican & American food. I got their Tuesday special - salmon stuffed with crab & shrimp and omg... it was so delicious. The salmon was perfectly cooked and there was a generous portion of crab and shrimp on top. You get two sides with every entree and I got mac & cheese and a side salad. The mac & cheese was creamy and ultra cheesy. The side salad had nice big chunks of tomato, slices of cucumber, and thin shavings of red & green pepper! I had plenty of leftovers so you definitely get your bang for your buck! I wanna come back to try some other dishes and grab some delectable desserts too. You can order online through their website or call in your order - you won't regret it! read more

Peaches Kitchen & Catering - Salmon Stuffed with Crab Meat and Shrimp & Mac & Cheese - Caribbean Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I've been coming here for the past few years now and the food quality remains the same. It's good, home cooked, make go into a food coma type of place lol. I usually get their amazing salmon cakes with two sides (Mac and cheese and greens)which come out to about $18 and some change. And I always have leftovers because the portions are nice and hefty so you're getting a bang for you buck! The Mac and cheese and greens aren't out of this world but they are pretty darn good for what it's worth. I tend to order to go during the week when it isn't super busy so my order only takes about 20 -25 min. The customer service is just okay. Sometimes when I call it sounds like the cashier is already over it lol. But doesn't bother me much. I've never dined in so it might be a different experience though. It's a nice local business in the Takoma DC area which I will continue to support so I hope others will do the same. read more

Peaches Kitchen & Catering - Two Salmon cakes with a side of collard greens and Mac and cheese. - Caribbean Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

We were in the neighborhood and my friend remembered this place. We stopped in and even though they didn't allow for dine-in the staff was friend as were the patrons waiting for their orders. I had the salmon cakes with collards and Mac and cheese. Everything was great. The collards had flavor that I'd never tasted before in collard greens. Being from the south, I've had my share of collards greens. These were good! The servings were enough for a second meal. Great food ... try the jasmine tea! read more

Food was great especially since my BP plays a factor. They let me do a taste test before purchasing since it was my first time. Thanks read more

Very tasty and gracious portions. I ordered the ox tail dinner. The staff was very pleasant and accommodating. I will definitely go back soon. read more

There is a sign in the window that is lit up in red letters and numbers that you can see from your car that reads close at 9pm. You go in side at 6:50 a person with an attitude says what do you want. Not may I help you. I say I would like to place an order but I need to see a menu. She again responds rudely we close in 10 minutes. The bright lit sign says 9. She says the sign on the door says 7. There should be one sign so there is no confusion. Can't tell you how the food taste and will not return. read more

I don't know if the owners changed but the food I ordered today wasn't good. I haven't ordered from this restaurant in years but I was in the neighborhood and decided to get some food. Waste of money. Nothing had flavor, the red beans and rice was very dry, the collard greens and cabbage had no flavor. The oxtails were, ok. Disappointed. I use to love this place. read more

Great Jamaican restaurant! The food is authentic and the portion sizes are generous. The staff is always pleasant and accommodating when I order to go or eat in. The atmosphere is good. It's a staple in my community and I'm glad it's still thriving after all these years. read more

Ordered my standard jerk chicken sandwich on coco bread today and something seemed different. The jerk sauce was back to the same flavor and punch I had been craving! They texted when our order was ready (what a world!) and our food was ready so much faster than I have ever had in all my years eating here. Whatever they are doing keep it up! I love Peaches! read more

Under no circumstance is it ever ok to charge people top dollar for BOX Mac-n-Cheese, and INSTANT BOX Mash potatoes. It's insulting that you would even think people would be stupid enough to not notice the difference. The stuffed salmon taste old and has low quality back fin crabmeat with too much breading. The shrimp is welfare frozen shrimp. The jerk chicken was dry and cold. I can't believe I paid $50 for this. I'm certainly reporting It to UberEats. Please do yourself a favor and stay away from this place. read more

Food grade d So the menu has one price but cashier ring up another price! I ask she says that's old price in menu My lunch was a d (ate some) & tossed rest (I just spent 25.00 for fish dinner Food ambiance should be spotless (it's not) read more

Walked in and no one was there, but somehow it took 35 mins for lunch The jerk chicken was trash Not worth the wait time I should have never tried out of my usual spot smh read more

Sometimes we all just need a little "soul" with our meal. That kind of comfort food that not only "stick to the ribs" and awakens the taste buds...but food that also brings about that belly-rubbing, lip smacking "good-good" feeling that wraps you with a big hug. This is what you get at Peaches Kitchen! THE VIBE A sit in family-style restaurant...get stuffed to your heart's content kind of place. Peaches is bright, airy and the staff very friendly. There is plenty seating for dining-in and carry-out service is offered too. Call ahead orders are accepted as well. Whether it's Caribbean-Jamaican eats, Cajun-spiced seafood, or Traditional American fare.....Peaches is your place! I'm talking about Jerk Chicken, Curry Chicken, Oxtails, Jerk BBQ chicken, Curry Goat, Stuffed Salmon, pasta dishes....to perfectly crisped Fried Chicken, Catfish, Cheesy Mac, Collard Greens & Buttery Biscuits...you will find it all here under one roof. The list goes on and on. THE GIST Most food items and entrees are made to order. The menu selection is huge for such a small place and the food is fresh. My favorites are the Jerk Chicken Wings, Oxtails Dinner and Salmon stuffed with Crab & Shrimp. Of course there are many other choices, but you can't go wrong with these three: * Jerk Chicken -- Jerk seasoning that you can see. It's seasoned to the bone and packs good flavor. * Oxtails -- My go-to plate and order here. The meat is so tender, juicy and the spices are spot on. * Salmon Stuffed with Shrimp & Crabmeat -- I go crazy for this dish. The Salmon cuts are huge quality cuts and the fish is cooked to perfection. The fish has a nice flavor to it, but the standout with this dish to me is the stuffed shrimp and crab. It's the perfect combination. Each entrée comes with two sides of your choice...and believe me, there's plenty of food. Peaches does not skimp on the portions. The portions are huge and there's plenty of food; shareable enough for two with each dish. * Honorable Mentions: Try the Oreo-cheesecake, house-made Pineapple Ginger Punch and/or Sorrel!....You can thank me later!! THE VERDICT I must admit I got a soft spot for this place. Yes, the food is good. Yes, the menu is huge--expansive for such a small place....It's some of the best eats to be found in Uptown DC. And, yes!...Down home is where it's at when coming here. The only grip as in most have with Peaches is the service times. As most Yelpers mentioned on here the service wait times is the only let down. BUTTTT....for me, I don't mind and don't let that deter you. The wait for your food can be long at times, but it's all worth it in my book....when you know that your food is fresh, being made from scratch, and prepared with love. When in need of some good comfort food eats....you can't go wrong here! I'm definitely a fan of Peaches!! TIP If ordering for take-out, call in your order in advance...ahead of time. It takes away any concerns over a long wait time. read more

Peaches Kitchen & Catering - No never again - Caribbean Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Listen...We were in Takoma Park, about to get some food from one of those spots by The Republic. We were looking in the menu on the window. The mailman stopped us and asked what we had a taste for. Randomly... we ain't even know for real. Bro directed us to Peaches, he said he gets it damn near everyday. It was close so we went down there. Ended up being a good decision. That food was hitting. The fried fish was well seasoned, the yams weren't too sweet or syrupy. The jerk chicken pasta was good too, it wasn't salty but that jerk hit you after you took a bite. I'm not even a pasta fan for real, but it was hittin. Black owned, business with someones real Caribbean grandma and aunt in the kitchen. I'm definitely going to run it back.Alfredo Pasta read more

I hate to rate businesses this low, and I've given peaches chance after chance to redeem them selves but it seems like the food will continue to be lack luster. My most recent order was jerk chicken, gungo peas and cabbage. Mi nah lie di gungo peas did nice, but the chicken was dry. They did not mix up the meat just gave me three small chicken breast, and dried the meat out during cooking. Waste of my money. They also said they didn't get my online order and I had to show proof even though they sent me a text saying my order was ready. I'm rooting for yall hope you get it together and have the food taste like it did before. read more

My #1 Caribbean eatery is "Muffin Man" However with there new store hours and me moving further away I can't seem to make my way there. Hence the search for great caribbean food with the authentic resemblance of "Muffin Man" . I must say "peaches" comes close to the authentic taste of "Muffin Man" that I crave so much.The food was good. The jerk wings were falling off the bone tender and had MAD flavor. Don't forget to get one of there signature lemonades too. If I could complain about one thing it would be add more jerk sauce to my rice or wings. (I love the sauce the wings make while it's slow cooks)The rice was kinda dry. Also the customer service wasn't too pleasant. With all that being said, I still will be back ASAP for more great food! Hold the salty customer service tho read more

Came in with my dad and sister and ordered three entrees. We waited PATIENTLY for a whole hour while three doordashers came in and left. Mind you, they were not cooking anything fresh, EVERYTHING was coming from a heated buffet type dishes from behind the counter so EVERYTHING was made already. After an hour and ten minutes we left without any food or beverages, and she was packing another doordashers order. read more

Love this place cook to go or dine in. The food is delicious. Haven't been in awhile but i will be back.

Had breakfast with everything and it was delicious. Especially impressed with the pancakes. Light, fluffy, consistent with a dollop of whipped cream. Terrific bargain. This breakfast would have cost $5 more further south in the District. A great spot if you don't want to fight the Sat. brunch crowds. And honestly, who does. Bright and cheery interior. The unassuming storefront hides how clean and warm the restaurant is. Nice menu and friendly service. A little odd to hear ESPN on the TV, but it wasn't distracting. Peaches really is a hidden neighborhood gem. Kudos to the helpful website they maintain. There is one strike against Peaches. Very slow. A single breakfast entree took twenty minutes to reach the table. We were the only patrons in the restaurant. I recommend Peaches, but make sure an hour is allotted. They do have free WiFi. This is a Caribbean restaurant, so switch to Caribbean time. But, they do have a lunch buffet, so that should alleviate any time concern for lunch going Yelpers. read more
