The restaurant is so cute with the decor and the music transported me back to Jamaica. As my coworkers I were seated, we were immediately greeted. Service was great and our waitress was super patient. We ordered most of our food and drinks from the HH menu and the. ordered entrees. For drinks, i had the 'Oh My Lychee' Martini and my coworkers had the Hibiscus Margaritas. From the HH menu, We ordered the salmon bites, grilled jerk wings, and jam jam shrimp. We left no stone unturned. The drinks were strong and refreshing, food was hot and amazing and the music was excellent-vibes were there. For entrees, we ordered jerk chicken and oxtails with coco bread. By the time the entrees came, we were stuffed. It was a great experience. Every time I'm in white marsh for work, I stop by. It's so worth it!

POV: You're looking for Caribbean food in White Marsh…read more We tried Konoko and the food was BOMB. We had the fried red snapper with rice & peas and mac & cheese, oxtail Rasta pasta, and ackee & saltfish for the appetizer ‍ Service was great AND fast, the decor was cute, and the drinks were definitely giving A lil pricey, but they're specialty crafted -- they even had one layered red, yellow & green like the Rasta colors White Marsh, MD -- which is basically Baltimore...but I'm from PG, so don't get me to lyin #Konoko #DMVFoodie #BaltimoreFoodie #WhiteMarshMD #MarylandFoodie #CaribbeanFood #JamaicanFood #DMVEats #FoodTok

I walked down the street today to find that Island Flavor Cuisine has moved in through the…read morerestaurant-revolving-door of 353 N Calvert. Serving a wide range of traditional Jamaican cuisine and catering mainly to the courthouse lunch pack, the shop is run by a really friendly Jamaican lady that will walk you through the menu and show you the wares. I asked for some spicy noise to pound back the cold Bmore winds. She recommended the goat curry platter ($8.50) which came on a bed of red beans and rice with a side of steamed cabbage and a few slices of fried plantain. The goat curry was delicious. Tender hunks of goat meat served on the bone were well flavored but not spicy at all. The sauce was great and well-textured but sadly, the red beans and rice were disappointingly flavorless. It left me trying to ration my bites with sauce and meat to flavor all the rice. The fried plantains on the other hand were the best I've ever had. Slightly gummy from caramelization on the outside, tender and smooth inside, they beat any weak bananas I ate on Spanish III field trips or even in Costa Rica. I definately will give this place another go, the jerk chicken looked ridiculous. Give this place a shot, just make sure your beans and rice get sauced up good and try 'em plaintains.

This place is in a small strip of various stores (barber, cleaners, etc) and you'd miss it if you…read moreweren't looking for it. It's called the Village Shopping Center, and it's across the street from a car repair shop and a Pizza Hut. Not a lot of space inside, so dining in isn't a real option unless you're solo or just with a friend. I ordered the signature dish of any Jamaican place - jerk chicken. A large platter is 12.95 in mid 2022, and the platter was very filling. The seasoning and spice were on point and authentic. The chicken was well-cooked and tender. With the rice and cabbage, and lunch option I will happily do again. But I'm gonna have to try some other things here. I definitely want to try the curry chicken and oxtail. There were 3 others waiting for their orders when I put mine in. I maybe waited 10-15 minutes, which isn't terrible. If you have a larger order or in a hurry, calling in probably helps.

This was a last minute stop. Dakari Soul Food in Edgewood was closed and it was nearly 1pm (I like…read morethe fish sandwich which you can get several ways; cooked in front of you). I never planned on going here because most Caribbean food sauce in America is too salty. Well this place was empty. There was no one at the counter to take orders. The guy appeared and seemed shocked when I ordered. He then fired the stove. I stepped out for maybe 10 minutes. I came back in and he left the counter to collect my food. I already seen one person walk in and leave quickly with food before I came back in. He looked upset when I did not tip. I have consistently had bad luck with local Caribbean spots so for a lunch deal under 13 dollars; I will see first if it looks edible, smells fresh, and tastes fit to eat before I tip in the future. As soon as I opened the container (very heavy) the sauce looked too silky and dark to be a stew. It looks like motor oil. The temperature was hot. There was no taste at all to the sauce. The rice or veggies gave an old smell. I believe it was the rice because it was lumpy when you get through past the black sauce. There were some lettuce cut strips that were translucent. The chicken was tender and did not taste old/reheated a few times. I am so disappointed. I wish I would have read the reviews. I should have went to Wawa for a sandwich, they never disappoint.

I appreciate that the food is made to order -- it was piping hot! My only gripe is the fact that I replaced my rice with mac and cheese (which costs extra according to the website) and my order was wrong. The cabbage and jerk chicken were alright, but I was disappointed to see rice instead of mac and cheese. I would recommend checking your food before leaving to avoid this issue from occurring. Also ask for utensils because they don't always remember to give them.

This spot was a great find overall…read more 5/5 Today I had their jerk chicken and all I can say was that it was amazing. It came fresh off the grill and it was the best I have tasted since moving to Maryland. The portion size was perfect for the price. The chicken was well seasoned with the perfect amount of spice and smokey flavor. 5/5 The beef patty was hot with the right amount of flake and filling. Every bite had beef and crust. 5/5 -The fresh juice is made in house and made daily. I got 2 drink today the ginger and pineapple and the ginger and cucumber. Both had me wishing I had gotten more flavors. 4/5 I also had the oxtails Mac and Cheese was also good, but it is a really small portion for the price. The staff was super friendly and answered all of my questions. I look forward to returning to try other options on the menu. There is no space to eat in, but it's super clean and organized.
