    I've been going here from before it was the blue hole. I love love love love my stew chicken breakfast. My day could be going bad I get some fry Jack everything fixed. Service is amazing they have the kindest and passionate people there. Everything authentic Belizean food no shortcut. Panades, fry fish, tamales, curry chicken, ganache's all fresh. There's plenty room to sit and don't forget to try a coconut tart, ice cream, lemon pie, creole bread, or bun on the way out

    Fry jacks! IYKYK! fried, fluffy dough clouds!

    I've been visiting Belize for the past 10 years. Visiting doesn't mean I'm an expert but having spent so much time there I got to miss the flavors of Belize. I was shocked to find this restaurant in Gardena! The fillet was seasoned so well. Not too "salty" but wonderfully subtle in the flavoring. I'm a fan of the rice and beans, the taste is earthy and the texture is both "tough" and chewy at the same time. It's a specific texture that's just so good. The plantains! I. love the crust that was on the outside and how wonderfully mushy the plantains were on the inside! If you're a fan of fried doughs (every culture has something fried) then you'll enjoy the fry jacks. I enjoy mine with a little bit of butter and jam. Service is very casual and laid back. If you've traveled abroad you know many cultures are not about rushing you through your meal but checking in on you to make sure you're enjoying and that's the service you get here. The restaurant is bright, airy, and painted blue like the water you see in Belize and the blue hole of Belize. A hidden gem that more people should support :)

    First time here and I'll be back! It's easy to find and has ample amount of parking. The inside was clean and plenty of seating. My food was ready when I got there and the young man at the front was nice. $20 in Belize but $40 in America. worth it though! Oxtail 5/5 Stew beans & rice 5/5 Potato salad 5/5 Plaintain 4/5 (not as sweet as I like them) Lemon Pie 5/5

    Stew Chicken (No White Meat Available)

    I've had homemade Belizian food but this has expanded my cuisine horizons. All dishes listed were delicious however the stewed chicken was a bit salty but edible. My favorite was the hash fish and creole bread. Definitely Caribbean influence yet unique flavors from Belize region. The sour sap juice was refreshing and balanced in sweet flavor. The service was exceptional and decent dine in seating. There's restrooms available next to cashier. This is a local favorite of La and I will return to try more dishes.

    Grilled Shrimp

    The taste of Belize! Went with family for lunch. I ordered a pink lemonade and the grilled shrimp with potato salad, stew beans and rice and plantains. I tried one of the fry jacks that my mom ordered. This was my first time trying fry jacks it was light and airy. Our server was lovely and helpful. I hope to come back soon when I'm in LA.

    Sampler

    The texture of the sampler was light but filling Crisp tostadas carry salty & fresh ingredients Paired with crispy and airy fried Panades my favorite of the four was the Salbute Was great with the pickled onions provided I just wished they put some of the crumbly cheese on it. 4.5/5

    Stew chicken, rice and beans, and plantains.

    Was craving some Belizean food and decided to finally check this place out. My friends and I went to Belize last year and have been trying to find some stew chicken as good as the one we tried. The stew chicken came with large portions of sides and the meat was so tender it fell off the bone. The person who took my order was friendly and even gave me a free Pepsi. The restaurant is roomy and in a quiet area with plenty of parking. Will definitely come here again to try other dishes.

    Piece of metal/plastic that was inside the Rice & Beans.

    Unfortunately, there was a big piece of metal/plastic in my grandson food (Rice & Beans). I told the waiter (Leslie) who said he will take it to the kitchen so that they could be aware. No apologies or anything. They didn't even offer to comp his food. Sorry but I will never return to this restaurant. I took a picture of the metal so I have proof.

    Tamales nice

    Having moved from Belize to California, I've always been on the lookout for authentic Belizean food that takes me back to my roots. In the 90s, my mom and I used to frequent the Belizean restaurants on Western Avenue, but now they're scattered across the city, and many don't taste the same anymore. Blue Hole, which I believe was once called Mars, has been a staple for Belizean cuisine for quite some time. This place truly carries the Belizean torch for the best authentic, consistently delicious meals that remind me of home. Food Rating: Sampler Plate (Garnaches, Panades, etc.): 4.5/5 (keep in mind this might get soggy so best to have there) Tamales: 5/5 Rice & Beans with Stew Chicken: 4.5/5 Bread Pudding: 4.5/5 Service: Friendly Cleanliness: Good I would definitely recommend Blue Hole if you want to try Belizean food for the first time or if you're looking for a great Belizean restaurant that reminds you of back home. It's also perfect for those days when you just don't feel like cooking.

    Fry chicken, fry jacks
    Serena L.

    It was my first time trying Belizean/Caribbean food, and it was amazing!! I ordered the fry chicken which came with rice & beans, plantains, and a side salad of choice (I got the potato salad). We also got a side of panades. The chicken was SO juicy that I didn't even need to use the sauce. The fry jacks had a hint of sweetness and surprisingly paired well with the chicken. The panades paired so well with the pickled onions. Everything came out fresh and piping hot. The inside of the restaurant had a "topical" vibe and the music being played was very fitting. The service was amazing, there was only one person working but he made sure to check up on our table several times. It was a long drive to get here but worth it. I will definitely be coming back to try other dishes!

    I live in the neighborhood, and today was our first time trying Uncle Mac's! This place has been on…read moremy husband's radar for a while, and I seriously cannot believe we haven't come here sooner. The food was absolutely delicious! The shrimp burger was unbelievable, and the shrimp and fish & chips had me licking my fingersEverything was SO good! The lady who took our order and served us was lovely and very attentive, which made the experience even better. We will definitely be coming back to try every single dish on the menu!

    Recently discovered Uncle Mac's Kitchen and decided to check it out! It's located in Tozai Plaza,…read moreso parking can be tricky. But if you're willing to walk a bit, you can usually find a spot towards the farther end of the parking lot. We ordered the food online, and it was ready for us when we arrived. I love a good fish taco, so we decided to try a few different ones. We got some Marco Mahi Tacos that come with cabbage, tomato, cilantro, and crema. You can choose flour or house made corn tortilla. We also got the George Fish Taco that has battered Alaskan cod. Both were good, but I enjoyed it more with the salsa on top. They have a Gabe Portobello Taco which I thought was interesting! It has a battered portobello inside, which I thought was unique. I would get it again! They have a lot of fun side items. We got some Tom Yum Sidewinder Fries that have a tasty tom yum salt added to them. The salt doesn't stick to the fries the best, but you can kind of dip them back in the salt at the bottom of the container for some more of that salty tart flavor! The Potato Rings look like onion rings. They're basically a tater tot in ring form. Fun to eat, but I wish they gave a few more in the order. We also got Crispy Battered Green Beans and Fried Zucchini. Both come with ranch sauce for dipping and were pretty solid! I'll be back to try their sandwiches and pastas!
