This was my first time trying African/Caribbean food, and I was really excited to try Royal Arm! I…read moregot the jollof rice with fried plantain and a drumstick, plus egusi soup with fufu and oxtail soup. The portions were generous, which I really appreciated. The jollof was spicy (in a good way!) but a bit flavorless, and the chicken was pretty dry. The soups were also on the bland side for me. That said, everyone's taste is different -- just because it wasn't for me doesn't mean others won't enjoy it. The staff was friendly, and I'm still glad I gave it a try. I'll definitely keep exploring more African/Caribbean spots!

First time African food and so glad we came to Royal Arm for this experience. Enoch was super kind…read moreand helpful, answering all our questions. I got the egusi with beef and fufu. The beef was a tasty addition to the egusi adding more flavor and protein. The fufu was nice and warm and had a great texture. I know we will be back to try other items. Food aside, I would like to see some improvements to the seating and decor. It was giving pizzeria when I was hoping for more cultural vibes.

Ok Rosenberg! This is the 3rd hidden gem in that area I've found recently…read more I did a door dash so I can't speak to the facility or service but the food is good! My go-to Jamaican dish is either brown stew chicken or curry chicken so I got both. They were both quite tasty but if I had to give one the edge I'd say the brown stew chicken. BUT we also got a goat curry & that was terrific goat. So so tender & flavorful. If you've been wanting to try goat, try this one! The rice & peas were definitely above average. I don't typically eat much of it but I did this one. The cabbage is shredded very thin. It's ok, it checks the box for having greenery on the plate. Ok plantain lovers this is some of the best I've had! It was cooked perfectly, sweet, caramelized & just yummy! No plantain comes with your meal so you need to get a side order. The side order is an ample amount. I'd come back for the plantain alone! Love having this on the southwest side of town. I definitely recommend checking them out! Next time I'll go in person so I can give a full experience review.

Not spicy pretty mild but flavorful.

Walk in and you here the reggae playing on one of the three tvs they had here Young lady greeted as we walked in and she took our order...very nice Of course the spouse ordered the food he ordered the 2 meat combo...fried chicken and oxtail and of course I ordered the curry goat...my fav It's a nice little spot very clean very intimate They even have children seats which means it's family friendly They even have a little arcade game of Ms Pac-Man while waiting for your food too cute You can smell the food throughout the place which is not a bad thing cause it smelled good Made my way to the restroom and the restroom is very clean as well So after about a 20 25 minute wait got our food and went home and opened the food and it was okay nothing big....it was flavorful but it was missing that ummph...

I went to Taste of the Caribbean and this is an easy 5 stars…read more This place is the real deal when it comes to Caribbean food. You can tell right away it's authentic--everything from the curry chicken to the oxtail and roti is packed with flavor. It's not watered down for the masses, it tastes like somebody in the kitchen actually knows what they're doing. They've got that Trinidad influence too, which I appreciate. You don't see that everywhere. Stuff like doubles and buss up shut on the menu is a big deal if you know what you're looking at. Portions are solid, food comes out fresh, and overall it just hits. It's one of those spots where you keep thinking about the food after you leave. If you want real Caribbean flavor in Houston, this is one of the places you need to try.

Hospitable and A-MA-ZING FOOD! Oxtail, doubles, sorrel made in house... Just wow…read more Thought you didn't like goat meat? That's because you haven't had goat from D'Carribean Curry Spot. Their food is so good, it makes you question everything you thought you knew. Also lots of imported Caribbean snacks and drinks! Just beware....... If you are not already addicted to Trinidadian food or haven't tried it before, eating here will start your addiction. You have been warned.

Thank god we found this!…read more After finishing our lunch at Wrap & Roll, we saw this out of the corner of the eye and decided to stop here as the girlfriend was looking for some caribbean snacks. Being from St Croix island in the Virgin Islands, seeing the menu and taking in the smells of this place gave her memories of back home. Of course I was happy to indulge her request as it gave me an opportunity to try some handheld eats. First the beef pattie, pretty big and so savory with the meat melting in your mouth and the dough having a nice texture and crust. And then the saheena; OMG! It was my first time having this lovely pastry which is made of chickpeas, spinach, and caribbean spices. You'll be hooked on this after one bite. Texture was similar to a savory piece of cornbread. Of course I was very happy with this item. The girlfriend ordered a currant roll which had some sweetness to it with a flaky crust. I enjoyed it but not as much as I was scarfing down my beef pattie and saheena. They also serve traditional caribbean eats including jerk chicken, oxtails, bake & saltfish, and roti wraps. We noticed a lot of people place to go orders here and call ahead for pick up. There were several bags of eats waiting as we witnessed people roll in and pick them up while having small talk with the owners. All those items looked delicious and we plan to come back and try those out. We also talked to the owners for a bit, they're a husband/wife team who've owned/operated this place for a while. Super polite and gracious, they helped me navigate the menu and explained what the items would be like when I ordered. Sadly I could not get the Aloo Pie (sold out) but they assured me it's worth having and to come back and try it (which we will). Pearland is lucky to have this place here. Definitely recommend trying it out for yourself!
