I'm a visitor from Philadelphia and had a taste for jerk chicken, cabbage and plantain. I stopped…read moreat a jamaican spot on New Castle Ave but they were out of Jerk chicken, so my next destination point was D&H in Newark. The only bright spot was the waitress. The chicken was okay, the sauce was watery runny, not as thick as it should be. The cabbage was un seasoned and very bland. They didn't have plantain so I substituted mac and cheese. It was served as a big square hunk served in a dish that just came out of the microwave. It had a bland taste to it as well. The cook should be ashamed of himself. They got me for $25.00 plus tip. That's not what I'm used to eating when the places in Philly are on point. Do yourself a favor and steer clear of this place. They really need to do better. They got me this time, but won't get me again.

I will never go back to this place. I ordered curry chicken and they gave me curry beef. I even…read morewent back inside and told the little white lady this is beef and I do not eat beef.

We decided to try Pearl of the Antilles takeout for a date night since it had recently opened. The…read morefood was solid, and the owner's hospitality stood out. Overall Ratings: Restaurant: (3/5) Service: (5/5) Food: (4/5) Parking: Free parking lot Atmosphere: A typical takeout spot with a few tables for those who choose to dine in--nothing particularly remarkable. Service: The owner and staff were incredibly friendly, which my girlfriend especially appreciated. Their hospitality was a highlight of our experience. Food: We ordered: - Jerk Chicken - Flavorful but slightly dry - Creole Stew Chicken - Delicious - Sides (Rice & Beans, Steamed Cabbage with Carrots) - Absolutely delicious and complemented the entrées well - Spicy Slaw - Great flavor with a nice kick, but the portion was surprisingly small (served in a tiny sauce container) If ordering outside of DoorDash or other platforms, the side dish options can be unclear. Not all sides are included with meals, and some require an extra charge, which could be better communicated. Final Thoughts: Good food, excellent service, and a place we'd happily return to!

My first visit to Pearl of the Antilles. Although there was another carribean restaurant that was…read morepreviously here but it's not the same name or owner. I came in right at 12:00 when they were open to get lunch. The doors were still locked so I placed an order over the phone and it took about 15 minutes for my order to be ready. They have a $12 lunch special where you can choose between jerk chicken or creole stew chicken, two sides and a can of soda. I tried the jerk chicken and it was delicious. The chicken was flavorful and the rice and peas offset the spice from the chicken. I also got a side of plantains. They had a nice flavor and crunch.

The sides I ordered an hour before I received my food weren't what was given to me because they ran out. I love to support small businesses but if they keep running this way it won't be open much longer. I hate seeing reviews with pictures and what I get is the opposite. The picture is before I even touched the food. They definitely scrapped the bottom of the pot for this.
