This place is terrible. They don't have enough workers so the wait is long. I ordered two plates…read moreand this older lady was plating my food but I noticed that one had way less than the other. I told her that it wasn't even and instead of just fixing it. She instead replied "oh yeah you think it's not even?" I responded again yes, that it wasn't even. She then told me "In life things are not even". She even told me that it is "very expensive" to make this food. I didn't go there for life lessons. I just went there for my food and she's extremely rude for speaking to me like this. I don't understand why I had to go back and forth with this lady but she's just straight up RUDE. The food was not fresh at all and they don't cover the food so it was cold. I ordered 2 medium Rasta pastas with 2 quarter half chicken for $55! That's so wild! They charge you extra if you want the chicken on the side. And on top of that the food smelt spoiled. I couldn't eat it so it ended up straight in the GARBAGE. And this place is straight garbage like the worker's attitude! Save your money and go get food somewhere else!

I was not aware of this Caribbean restaurant. It is more of a take out. Nice staff, but the food…read morewas just ok for me. I ordered curry chicken, cabbage, rice and plantains. The plantains weren't that sweet, cabbage was just ok, the curry chicken was very hot. I felt like it was seasoned like jerk chicken. I got a. Chicken beef patty. I think she didn't hear me about the coco bread but that was hot too. If you love spicy food this is the spot for you.

Canzy island taste is by far the best Haitian food I've ever had!…read more The restaurant is within a little shopping mall out in Long Island. From the outside it looks small but the inside was big enough to seat 15-20 people. The server was very helpful with explaining what ever this was and gave me some good suggestions. I ended up having the legumes, black rice and Mac and cheese. The legumes is a veggie stew with meat. The flavor is so rich, deep and delicious. I've never had a veggie stew that made me want to go back for more. The black rice was so good you could eat it by itself. The Mac and cheese was also good. The portion of the dishes were so big for the price. Big enough that I shared it with someone and was able to eat from it 4 times total. Being from BK, I thought we had the best Caribbean food but now I can see that's not true because this restaurant was too good! I will definitely go back for more!

This is a Haitian deli that is in a retail strip with free parking…read more Lalo is their signature dish, and it is only sold on weekends. It is made from jute leaves, fresh crab and beef. Do not confuse this dish with Jamaican Callaloo, which is made from taro (dasheen) leaves and is often combined with salt fish. The owners make their own passionfruit and ginger juice. The ginger juice is potent. It is stronger than any ginger beer that I have ever tasted. I have to dilute it with some water. I am only giving this deli three stars because it is a new business that must iron out some kinks. For one, sometimes all the daily specials are not put out by noon. Number two, the interior design needs updating.

I also got the jerk chicken which spice levels always teeter towards almost too much to handle but the flavor is great. I do prefer thighs to drumsticks though. Their cabbage and collard greens taste very fresh and the collard greens actually tastes like the vegetable instead of meat. The plantains were a great complement. Really loved my meal (that lasted over a few days)!

The service was excellent the lady behind the register was a real sweetheart and very helpful.

Will definitely eat here again if in the neighborhood.

It came out juicy, tender and flavorful, even more so when I added the extra jerk sauce that came on the side. Chef Cani told me that he used the back leg of the pork. Too bad Jerk On The Water does not sell any alcohol. I would have paired the pork with an ice cold bottle of Red Stripe Beer. This is a take out place with some outdoor seating overlooking the water. There are four tables outside, each of which has three chairs. CAVEAT EMPTOR: CASH ONLY AT THE WINDOW OR PAY BY CARD AT THE KIOSK!!! However, the kiosk's menu was hard to read due to the sunlight.

I love this place the vibe is everything, a Caribbean island vibe when you want to feel off the island. I had some family driving in come Nassau/queens and this was the first place I thought of. Great service and spectacular food. Waitress was patient and kind to my grandpa so I appreciate that. I got the veggie/bean patty amazing voted best on island for a reason. Eat strategically though bc it will start to fall apart. My aunt got some shrimp tacos and potatoes (aka papas bravas) with a sweet drizzle on them. I often take dressings off mostly bc I'm scared I won't like it but this is not the place to do that. Everything combined on the menu is strategic and delicious!

Base my reviews off what you pay:…read more *Place was busy but not packed on a rainy Saturday at 6:45PM on Memorial Day Weekend. Price - ~$75 (appetizer, entree, drink, tip) Food - 2/5 - lacking for the price. Drinks were lacking. Service - 4/5 - friendly and on point. Ambiance - 4/5 - cool vibe inside with rooftop. Overall - 3/5 - did just about everything right except the food. Service was great. Waitress was very friendly, gave recommendations, and fun to have around. Inside of restaurant had a cool vibe and was nice to be in. Rooftop was awesome and the highlight. Unfortunately the food fell short. For the price, it was pretty lacking in taste. Portion were ok but the food was all pretty lackluster. Mussels had curry in them but could barely taste it. Tacos were pretty bland. The drinks barely had alcohol in them? They tasted fine but had 2 drinks and barely felt a thing (I know my tolerance). Unfortunate on the food when it came to here. Likely would not return. Best Dish - None to note Would Return - Probably not
