    Amazing food and service. You will feel welcoming vibe once you step in. We ordered oxtails, goat curry, Mac and cheese. Everything was delicious. Portions were big and we had to take back home. Must try.

    Pumpkin Corn Soup and Codfish Fritters

    Really yummy food. Great service! And such a lovely Caribbean vibe. I highly recommend the dinner for two option. There's a great amount of food and everything is presented so beautifully. The oxtail was everyone's favorite. Cooked to perfection. Melt in your mouth. The curry goat was finished first so that'll give you an idea of how delicious it is. The fritters were a great app and pumpkin soup was delicious too.

    Great Caribbean spot in the Park Slope area. Small mom-and-pop shop with a casual vibe. Every dish was packed with flavor--definitely a great spot if you're craving quality Caribbean food.

    The food was pretty tasty. We ordered the akee and salt fish tostones, jerk wings and salmon and crab croquettes for appetizers. The jerk wings skin couldn't been more crispy but the taste was there. The oxtail bowl, jerk salmon and salt fish sandwich was on point. We also ordered the sorrel and that was very refreshing on a hot summer day. The customer service was attentive and we got our food pretty quickly. The place has a simple decor. Would go back and try their brunch on Sundays.

    Stellas is a spot I have wanted to try. I pass by it often and it always looks grounded. Went there for a celebratory dinner and left unsatisfied. Meh...was hoping to like it. However. The experience was not the best. Music was too loud, service was off and worst of all for a group of 12 our food was cold. 5 of our dishes was cold. Eventhough they came out of the kitchen different times. The drinks were decent as well. The appetizers were cool, but the main dishes lacked the spices and flavors of the carribbean in my opinion.

    Absolutely delicious! We tried the vegetable roti and the chickpea curry. Both dishes were good, but the roti was my favorite - full of deliciously spices vegetables and smothered in a curry sauce. The chickpeas were also delicious and had a different seasoning profile from the roti. Prices were also super inexpensive at $51 with tax and tip, with plenty of food for two. Totally worth it!

    01/24/2025 Another amazing meal consumed. The passionfruit Margarita was yummy and strong. The corn soup spoke to my soul especially on a cold winter evening. The ackee tostones were yummy. But the star for me was the curried crab tostones. The flavors that danced on the tongue was sublime. For mains we had the curry shrimp and fish. I had the escovitch delicious as always. However, they now have a healthier version. Garlic butter roast fish. OMG I wished I had ordered. It was well seasoned and delicious. That definitely will be my choice next time. As always amazing staff which made our dining experience that much better.

    Came to Stella's for a birthday party and had a great time. We were unfortunately running late and they were accommodating. The food was amazing!! The service was also good.

    Stella's is high on my list of best West Indian restaurants in Brooklyn. This is a small location in park slope Brooklyn but the food is one of the best. If you ask me I always compare food and will end my statement with Stella's tastes better. ‍ Every time I go the customer service is always on point from timely placing my order to appetizers arriving and then entrées arriving. This restaurant has the best bread pudding that I have ever had and the ice cream with it just tops everything!!!! Head over to Stella's and believe me you will be happy with your meal

    Cod fish fritters
    Giselle B.

    I went here for a friend's birthday brunch/dinner. It was a group of 10 of us so we had the downstairs space all to ourselves. It was a little....drafty down there but the music wasn't too loud so we were able to gather and chat without yelling at each other. The service was good, no complaints. And the food was actually really good! I had the cod fish fritters and it was soooo good. And the oxtail surprised me because sometimes, restaurants can be hit or miss with it. The oxtail was flavorful, not fatty, had good meat pieces and the rice was cooked well. I would go back to try their bottomless brunch!

    Everything about the experience was top notch! From the time our group walked in and Beres (IYKYK) greeted us, the vibe check was ! We were promptly seated and taken care of with thee best service. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu, answered our questions, and ever so graciously interacted with our group! Two people in our group had been here before, while it was the first time for three of us. I'm a frequent solo diner but was so appreciative that this 1st experience was with a group. We ordered a little bit of everything and I must admit, I almost missed out on one of the best patties I've had! To drink, I had a half and half (sorrel & ginger beer), and it did not disappoint! Not only meh item, E V E R T H I N G that everyone ordered was delicious and believe me because I tasted it! Oh... and we bought out all the patties to/go! I will certainly be back so I can have a go and add the additional star by having a cocktail. The chefs/owner came to our table and greeted us with officially elevated the experience to Chefs kiss! Oh and I got a lil home decor idea!

    Coconut mussels Ackee Tostones Codfish Fritters
    Stephanie D.

    Came here from a recommendation on one of my weekly podcast, Getting Grown. Was in the area for a show and was the perfect opportunity. Overall service was great and attentive. The menu is not overwhelming at all. The space is cute a lil narrow but does the job. Food we shared appetizers; cod fritters, mussels, and ackee tostones. All great flavor loved the dip the fritters came in. The tostones twist was great, we would suggest like a sauce on top drizzled with some spice for the final punch. Main course: oxtail with rice and peas. Was def a hefty plate of pxtails had leftovers. Great flavor nice and hot. Cocktail tried the Gingalee! Had a lick to it and strong.

    This is a cute little spot . We were seated quickly as we had a reservation. Our server was sweet and I got the shrimp roti and it was so so good. It was flavored to the sauce to the shrimp . It was just so good . The vibes were nice it's just a really good Caribbean spot . I look forward to going again !

The friendly one woman staff helped seat us, recommend the dishes, made the drinks, prepped and served the food. It was all tasty.

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

The meat was perfectly tender and the gravy was savory, the rice and peas was moist and delicious, the cabbage had a nice flavor and texture and the side of fry plantains were perfect, the right level of soft and sweet. Do yourself a favor and visit Islands. Cool .

Their playlist is great so vibes were on point. We all shared the lemon drop cocktail tower. It was super cute, tasty, fun, and did what it had to do for us pre-day party. For food, I tried the bao fish tacos and the crab curry gyoza. Both of these items were good but for the amount that comes with them it's pricy (you get 2 small bao tacos and 4 pieces of gyoza, both of which are $20-22 each). I liked the bao tacos the most because of the mixture of flavors and textures, including the excellently friend fish. The gyoza was different. It wasn't bad but I think I'm just used to crispy/fried gyoza vs these which were boiled/soft. My friends really enjoyed the crab fried rice. The fried sweet plantains were just ok to me; The batch we got were dry and not that sweet.

But what stands out to me is: jerk chicken, mac and cheese, the lamb. Wait, my fave was the flatbread pizza with pasta and jerk chicken. My partner throughly enjoyed and raves about the oxtail. The mixed drinks were equally exceptional.

When I walked in, I noticed two available seats at the bar. A Caucasian woman took one of the seats, and I sat in the other. Moments later, an employee asked me to move because the woman's friend was supposedly on the way. Now, I've always understood bar seating to be first come, first served. What made the situation even more frustrating was that I wasn't even given the opportunity to order a drink or remain seated until the friend actually arrived. Instead, I was immediately asked to give up my seat for someone who wasn't even present. As a Black man, on Juneteenth of all days, the optics of the situation did not sit well with me. The music was Black. The atmosphere was Black. The culture being celebrated was Black. Yet it felt like preference was being given to someone who wasn't even there over a paying customer who was. Maybe that wasn't the intent, but perception matters, and the experience left a very bad taste in my mouth. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I cannot recommend this establishment. Avoid it at all cost! Zero STARS
