1 /5 N. Scott: For my beautiful people who love their chicken cooked with more than salt and pepper, this review is for you!!
I love Caribbean food—I’ve eaten it all over the world.
The first thing I was told when I arrived was a list of everything they didn’t have, which was also posted on the white sheet by the counter.
I ended up ordering the jerk chicken only because the menu was so limited. They didn’t have curry goat, oxtail, or brown stew chicken. Even beef patties were missing.
I drove home, got comfy, and opened my food. My first thought was: Is that BBQ sauce on my jerk chicken? And why is it smothered in it? I took a bite and, yep—it tasted like regular store-bought BBQ. I wasn’t impressed. I tried a piece closer to the bone, hoping for better flavor, but it had none at all.
I moved on to the cabbage… and couldn’t even swallow it. Cooking cabbage right is a technique—if you know, you know.
The rice and peas were probably the best part. Its not great, but its not terrible either—just okay.
Based on this experience, I won’t be coming back. But if you’re looking for an amazing Caribbean spot where you can smell the spices from outside the door, do yourself a favor and go to DJ’s Caribbean Kitchen!
