    Beef patty- fresh & tasty
    Najwa G.

    I stumbled upon this place & saw that everything was halal & that it was busy at 8 AM- I had to go in. The lady working there was very nice & accommodating with my questions at that time of day haha. I grabbed a beef patty & it was very flavorful & the price was right. If I'm in this area more I would definitely frequent this place more.

    Not my typical area for this type of food so I was curious to try. It's Guyanese cuisine and wanted to try Pepper Pot their signature dishe but sasadly they were out. It was near closing time. I opted for some other Caribbean dishes and did take out. They still has a decent selection and amount of food to pick from. We got the Peas and Rice and Boneless Jerk Chicken. The boneless chchicken was my hubby's idea, I prefer bone in and already had my reservations about the flavor difference but I obliged. We got Doubles with Tamarind Sauce and Aloo Pie with Chickpeas. Both the lady at the counter and the cashier were very welcoming and friendly. They were quite engaging with several customers who walked in while we were there. I could tell this was a place where they had regulars from the conversations. She was equally happy to chat with us new comers. She even gave me a small package of Milo cookies when I saw a bigger box and commented that I always wanted to try them but didn't want to get the bug box without knowing if I'd like them. She told me I'd love it and I'd be back for more. I did. Got home and food was still warm. I was really impressed with the jerk chicken. I know it was oven prepared and not in the outdoor smoker but it was well seasoned and despite my preconceived notions about it being boneless it was very good. The doubles were good I really enjoyed the tamarind sauce. The Aloo pie was large by standards of all the other places we go to. It was also generously stuffed with chickpeas. I'd have to say I'd return. I want tobtry the Roti and of course - Pepper Pot. The have a few tables with chairs if you want to stay and enjoy. The restaurant was clean and stocked with traditional West Indian treats and drinks . The J train stop to Norwood is right in front/above the restaurant.

    Stickers on the vegetables, and some plastic substance.

    I have been having so much patience with them, but if I don't say anything they'll never get better. Today I find tomato stickers in my meal along with some plastic like substance. Their doubles are the emptiest I've ever seen. This is the 5th + order and 5th + discrepancy. This place is not for me.

    I was in here right before lunch to pick up some meat for my dinner. I was glad they had jerk chicken legs because that was my first choice for dinner. Fir the first time in a while there was no one ahead of me when I came in. I asked for one jerk chicken leg. I was asked if I wanted anything else. I declined. I also noticed they had plenty of fresh Guyanese pastries in their display case. The jerk chicken was coated in wonderfully complex hot and spicy blend. When I ate it, it was definitely hot. There was s nice char but not burnt. The meat was juicy and tender.

    Curried Beef
    Nicky M.

    I went for Roti & the had none, so I was given other options for a meat and rice. The server put her sleeve in the plate. I had to ask for a new plate of rice. All of the items looked dry, but I thought, hey let me give them a chance. I SHOULD HAVE WALKED OUT!!! There wasn't variety, I just chose curried chicken & curried beef with rice and doubles. NO ROTI??? Roti is in the name of the restaurant!!! *Mind blown* Tip: PAY WITH CASH!!! I swiped my card & the woman told me to swipe again because the payment didn't go through. I only chose no receipt & she was thrown off! I told her let me check my account before I swipe again. I showed her from my bank app the payment went through. She didn't want to give me the food. Anyway, I eventually got the food & didn't have to pay another $22. I got to the car & the food was cold!! Not lukewarm. COLDDD!! The takeaway is stick with the best, Singh's will always be the best.

    They remodeled
    Lola O.

    They just lost a customer! Waited an hour for my food and no delivery. Call to inquire and they have me on hold for 5min before hanging up on me(the whole time I can hear them conducting business as usual). I call back and they hang up on me again. Call the third and final time and they try and rush me off the phone saying the delivery person is leaving now! Thanks but no thanks. I no longer need your services! You do not know how to run a business. And they are only getting 1 star because that's as low as you can go smh

    Something about Caribbean food when the winter weather's frigid sounds dandy to me. Guess if you…read morecan't be somewhere tropical, eating tropical cuisine sure helps. Enter The Islands. It was sort of an odd time so the spacious restaurant wasn't very busy. We studied the menu for too long and after much deliberation, here's what we ordered, in order of spice level: - Oxtail ($35): Not spicy, super flavorful, "Trimmed and sliced chunks of oxtail seasoned freely with fresh spices and simmered to tender perfection." - Curry goat ($29): Mildly spicy, "Goat meat marinated and cooked in curry spices and herbs makes this an exotic dish." - Jerk chicken ($20): Apparently incredibly spicy so I steered clear of it, "A Jamaican delight. Spicy, delicious chicken baked with this unique combination of spices from the island." The dishes I could handle were excellent, with no drop of sauce left unmopped. On the sides front, the rice and beans, roti, steamed vegetables, and plantains were all tasty. The entree sizes were hearty. Our server seemed like a cool dude: easygoing with a sense of humor. It was kind of chilly in the restaurant, not sure if we were in a warmth dead zone or what. The bathroom was frog-themed which was a cute touch!

    "Deep in Brooklyn, hides the Caribbean"…read more Came here on sleepy Tuesday. Not many people in the restaurant but lots of take out going on. The friendly one woman staff helped seat us, recommend the dishes, made the drinks, prepped and served the food. It was all tasty. What's to cheer - Nice not to too sweet homemade rum punch - Solid, flavorful oxtail. Very island spiced and cooked well - Goat was also really strong - Reasonable prices - service with personality What's to jeer - they were out of the jerk chicken unfortunately which I really wanted to try - place is pretty low key and not swimming with ambience

Upon arrival the restaurant is very clean, and the service was fast. There is a dine in area as well. The woman who took my order was very patient , and personable.

The fish on the other hand was very salty and not worth the $20 charge (fish with no sides). I get it the area etc etc but for the price the food should be top notch.

I will soon be back and may have them do some catering orders for me( usually order from the location on flatbush). Pop in if you ever get in the area and want some hot warming food.
