    I came on my lunch break abt 3:30. I guess earlier lunch crowd wiped them out because they were out of so much. But I was able to get me some oxtails and curry chicken. It took a good min for it to be cooked and I was really the only sit down customer but I believe they had a lot of take out orders to make. Anyways, once the food came out it was well worth the wait. Meat was so tender and flavorful, cabbage was beautiful and cooked perfectly. Rice was awesome and those yams definitely were not from a can. Overall good experience and I would certainly go back. Only reason why I knocked down 1 star was because I couldn't see what their grade was, I don't know if I completely overlooked it but usually I would expect it right there in plain view behind a register.

    I expected more spent 139.00 on food for it to be nasty. Service was good they definitely had plenty of service but I was highly disappointed

    This is my FAVORITE Jamaican restaurant in Charlotte. I moved to Atlanta and make it a point to come here when I'm in town. It's my JAM! Authentic, flavorful and ridiculously delicious. Go here, NOW! Ambience: Last year they moved to larger location with booth seating, as well as counter seating. I LOVE the counter seating, you can watch the ched do his thing. The restaurant is clean, large and well lit. If you come in on Friday or Saturday you'll probably hear the owner jammin' along to the music. Great music btw. The good: THE FOOD!!!! Good Lawd it's good! I have never been disappointed with an order. Things to note: If you order anything seafood related or vegetarian, the cook time is about 30 minutes. The plates are plentiful. Tip: order to go, even for dining in. They stuff the containers. My go to is brown stew red snapper with rice and peas, cabbage and plantains. The snapper is a WHOLE FISH, head and all. My bf gets the curried veggies with rice and sweet potatoes. I have never had a bad meal here. Everything is flavorful, prepared well and plentiful. The bad: Sigh, the service. When they relocated they hired a lot of inexperienced employees. They need to take the time to properly train them. Ordering can be frustrating and time consuming. The wait for food can be long at times. Order in advance, even for dining in. All in all, it's a solid restaurant that is going through growing pains.

    We decided to try Quidley's since they were open until 9:00 p.m. We ordered ahead and went to pick it up. When we got there we saw quite a few people waiting for their food. My husband waited mostly outside since it was difficult to practice social distancing with the number of people waiting inside the restaurant for their food. We almost canceled the order since we were waiting at least a half hour for our order. Finally, we received it. We had the stewed chicken with rice and peas and cabbage. It was very good. My only complaint was that there was too much sauce and some of the chicken was tough, like it was overcooked. But overall it was very tasty and I would definitely consider returning. Next time I'd request that the food not be smothered in sauce. Hopefully they'll have a better system in place by then so we won't have to wait so long to receive our food.

    Food was Super Authentic and Delicious! Best Oxtail I've had since I moved here from NJ! The cabbage was super fresh with great flavor. The staff was very nice and welcoming...and the restaurant was very clean which is always a bonus! We will be back for sure!!!!

    I've eaten at a few Caribbean cuisine spots around Charlotte and I have to say this is the best I've eaten thus far. The restaurant is very clean and spacious and the service was good, but a little slow. The food was very flavorful and fresh. I was just a little saddened that they were out of Cocoa Bread... The food is cooked to order and is well worth the wait. The Brown Stew was so flavorful, I could've eaten/drank it by itself lol. The cabbage was also flavorful and still had a fresh crunch to it- it wasn't mushy at all. The plantains were also fresh as well. I will most certainly return here soon to eat and hope they have some cocoa bread next time :)

    I believe the chicken in this patty is not cooked all the way.

    Not good, a waste of money. Took 15 minutes to get this and ended up having chicken not cooked all grey an mushy. Do NOT recommend

    I hate doing this because, I've had so many good experiences. But yesterday was the last straw for me. We ordered 3 different plates, the rice was not cooked all the way(yes it was hard). The fish was super dry & had barely any flavor. I love supporting this restaurant, but the owner needs to do some revamping. It took almost 2 hours to get food that was awful.

    I have been contemplating eating here for quite some time, I'm very skeptical because finding good authentic Caribbean food is like looking for a needle in a haystack in Charlotte. This meal was as expected. The brown stew consisted of 4 hunks of overcooked meat (not fresh) brown sauce and a piece of potatoe.. no veggies in the stew at all. I'm very disappointed with the effort they put in this dish. Definitely will not return. Mama Caribbean's is the best spot if you're looking for real Carribean food in Charlotte.

    I will start by saying that this place is now serving dog food. The food was absolutely disgusting…read more- everything was hard, dry, and burnt, including the cake! Absolutely zero "F's" were given in the food preparation. The textures were appalling, as if the food had been scorched and then left out for hours before serving. The only remotely edible thing was the cold, burnt plantains, but even those were barely tolerable. I kept biting into gritty bits that I couldn't even identify as food, which made me seriously question the safety of what I was eating. If I had access to a lab, I would submit it to see what I'd [really] been served. I ended up throwing my entire meal in the garbage. To top it off, they've changed the name of the place, which just raises even more red flags. I can't help but wonder why they felt the need to do that. It's a waste of money, time, hope and food to ever go here. They disrespected the life of the poor chicken who died for this wretched soot seasoned, curry chicken slop. If my husband or anyone suggested this place I would seriously consider throwing hands. It doesn't matter what they are calling it now. Do yourself a favor and stay far, far away from this place.

    Disgusting! The pattys were burnt! I ordered the jerk chicken wrap with rasta pasta and the food…read morewas horrible. I would never order from here again! I ordered to complain and they said they would redeliver the patties and never did. Soooo disappointing.

    I was introduced to this place by my mom she would rant and rave about how delicious the food is…read moreand she wasn't wrong! Since moving to the Carolina's from up North I wasn't sure what to expect. I've have both dined in as well as carry out and the experience is always pleasant. I've had a few things from the menu but my favorite is the oxtail roti; It's a bit costly but well worth it as the meat is super tender, flavorful and the roti is pack full of meat. I also love the rice/ peas with the brown gravy and drinks are always phenomenal I've learned depending on the time of day you may be waiting for a bit but it's well worth it as everything is fresh, hot and made to order. The service/staff very friendly and helpful when it comes to ordering. The ambiance is upbeat, very clean and vibrant I wish I got a picture of my meal but somehow never makes it because it's that delicious

    On a recent trip to Rock Hill, I stopped in at Island Grill & Pub to enjoy dinner…read more Although it was very cold outside, as soon as we walked in, we felt like we were immediately transported to a neighborhood cookshop in Port Antonio! The cashier was sweet and personable. She was multitasking, but still managed to be fully engaged in the service she provided to us. She kindly let us know what items were sold out for the day and also gave us time to look over the menu and decide on our order without making us feel rushed. While we waited for our food to arrive, we noticed a steady flow of customers all the way until closing time! It's clear Island Grill & Pub is a local favorite. The food is packaged up to go, but there are plenty of tables to dine-in once you have your food...and a big screen with movies and Jamaican music playing in the background to keep you entertained. The wait for the food is a bit long...but EVERYTHING came out very fresh, very authentic, and worth the wait. The portions were plentiful, the food was flavorful and seasoned well, and the items were priced well for the value. What we ordered: - Small Jerk Chicken plate with rice & peas and cabbage - Jerk Chicken pasta - Side order of Macaroni and cheese We wish we lived closer, so we could visit Island Grill & Pub regularly, but it's definitely on our list any time we travel to the Rock Hill area!
