    Curry goat with okra and callaloo
    Anya T.

    This was my first time getting food from this eatery and now I feel like a bad Caribbean person. I ordered the curry goat on okra and callaloo. I skipped the rice. I also got a small container of stew chicken because it looks so tender and juicy in all the brown gravy and it was going fast. So far I only ate the curry goat dish and it was enough for 2 portions so I ate the remainder with some rice I made at home and it was still 10 outta 10, I recommend! They have an A score which makes me feel even better about eating at this spot. They do not offer indoor dining. You literally order and go! You can suck the bones, lick the gravy dripping down your hand, and dig in with no judgement or shame in the comfort of your home! It's a Trini spot and the next time I go back I wanna try the roti or the bake and salt fish! It looked so good! The doubles looked amazing too! I want everything!

    Boneless chicken roti- very flavorful!
    Ana D.

    Service was standard Caribbean take-out service (direct and to the point), but at least no attitude and they wanswered some questions about menu items (came here 3 years ago but never returned until now because of the very bad attitude and unwillingness to explain menu items to a Non-Trini, like when I asked what bake was) The boneless chicken roti: good size for large appetitive. Great flavor! Would highly recommend! Will be back to try their doubles and aloo pie since they were out when we went (Sat at 6pm)

    Oxtails with macaroni, rice and peas and callaloo
    Jessica B.

    I usually stay away from oxtails that are not made from my mom because for one, they are super expensive (they used to be a lot cheaper) and second, most restaurants add a lot of browning and it's not tender. Why bother? Well, my bf asked if I wanted some oxtails, as you can already figure, I was skeptical. He swore that I would love it so I decided to give it a try (he was paying...lol). My meal came with callaloo, macaroni and rice and peas. I have to give credit where credit is due--the oxtails were DELICIOUS. I was so surprised. The meat was falling off the bone, that's how tender it was. And I should mention that they are not stingy with the meat either. I haven't tried anything else but I'm definitely curious to sample their other meals. I highly recommend!

    I love to come back here every time I'm visiting New York. They always pack a lot of meat into their rotis and it's always beyond delicious. The service was quick and pleasant. The ambience is good for takeout.

    Roti Skin
    Cherry S.

    I will never go here again. I ordered a shrimp roti and my plate was full of potato and only 6 pieces of shrimp. Also the roti was hard and full of flour on the top. Check out the picture. However the customer service was okay. Oh I forgot to mention, I also got Mac and cheese. It was burnt on the top and I was only able to eat the bottom. Trust and believe it was not cheap. The best Trini place is Trinidad Golden Place. Their food is always fresh, you get large portions, the price is reasonable and good customer service.

    Breakfast for champs
    Shirrell H.

    I only eat breakfast items from here. Once in a while the bakes are a tad bit oily for me but I always get bake with saltfish, tamarind and slight pepper. Those 2 are necessary trust me. I also get a small porridge when Im really hungry. Now the passion fruit is a must. Sweet but you can always dilute it to stretch longer mix vodka with it.... too yummy Small shop... workers are nice... $10 min to use cards... 1 table and about 3 chairs on the side.

    Veggie Roti with spinach and pumpkin
    Kevin M.

    It's actually hard to write this review, but when people don't have good customer service, I have to say something. I've been coming to this spot since I was a teenager. My father would bring me here anytime he wanted some good Trini food. I ordered a Vegetable Roti. Anything I asked for, they gave me. When they went to wrap up the roti, it literally fell apart. One would think that the young lady preparing the meal would just get me a fresh roti skin and do it again. That didn't happen. I asked her to put it in a tin container just because it was falling apart as I said earlier. They gave me the Roti for $7.50, knowing that it was jacked up. There's a part of me that wanted to do what most Caribbean people would do and that's cause a scene in the place, but this is Covid-19 pandemic season, and we are all dealing with not being or getting what we want or deserve. The thing that made it worse was that the woman behind me got two perfectly prepared rotis and I got slop in a tin takeaway container. I'm embarrassed that I have to eat this with a fork and spoon because it's literally falling apart. I need you all to do better.

    Fried bake and shark with pepper and tamarind sauce
    Cassie C.

    This is my go-to spot when I want West Indian food when I'm in the area. I usually stop through in the morning for their bakes at least 2-3 times per month. On Thursdays, the bakes are hot and fresh. I usually get the fried bake with shark or corned beef when I'm lucky; they run out pretty quickly. When it comes to lunch, I only get their roti with either chicken or beef when I don't want to deal with the bones. I always request lots of tamarind and pepper sauce with my order. My babes has ordered their other food and by the way that he tears it up, I would assume that it's also good. If you have cash and are in the mood for a roti or bake, definitely stop through here. I definitely recommend it!

The shop is steady busy with takeout orders and the occasional folks (like me) who wanted to sit and enjoy my first doubles there. They only have two tables and chairs. Most people order to go. You may order at the kiosk and wait for your number to be called when it is ready to pick up. The kiosk is good because it easily shows all the sauces you may add to your doubles and the variety of other things like drinks, etc you may order. There is also the option to get in line and place your oder. You can watch the assembly line of workers quickly making food. Then check out with the cashier. They sell lots of different cakes, breads, nuts, and drinks too. I was a little overwhelmed on what to order, but a nice employee helped me out. I showed him what I was trying to order and asked for suggestions. Thanks to him I had the best doubles! Added tamarind sauce, mango chutney, and the benny sauce. The perfect vegetarian meal for $2.50! It is made of roti (flatbread), curried chickpeas, and topped with the sauces. Then rolled up to make a sandwich. So flavorful! I wasn't too sure which drink to get as I wasn't sure what they all tasted like. Chose the Seamoss drink, which is a mix of milk, seams, nutmeg, and some spices. Milky and not overly sweet. This was good. Maybe next time I'll get sorrel, which is hibiscus. They said the peanut drink is good too. Ordered Pholourie with tamarind sauce. These are fried savory dough balls. I couldn't resist getting a sweet treat. So, I randomly picked the salara bread, which looks like a cinnamon swirl bread slice. It is actually stuffed with shredded coconut that is colored red and tastes like cherry. Pretty good and not overly sweet. Definitely add this place to your list of eats in Queens. It is a trek from the city, but so good! Also, nice that it is a little bit away from the loud busy part of Liberty Ave in Richmond Hill. This is about a 15-20 min walk from there on Lefferts Blvd. Restroom available.

Every bite was full of flavor, and the meat practically fell off the bone. The doubles were just as impressive.

The portions are generous, the food is fresh, and the flavors taste just like homemade Trini cooking. Whether you're a longtime fan of Trinidadian cuisine or trying it for the first time, Trinciti delivers every time. Highly recommended!

I say this won't fly because in NYC (or even crown heights Brooklyn) you don't have an excuse. You can walk a few blocks in any direction, find a Chinese restaurant serving Americanized versions of fried rice, lo mein and chow mein, but they will be cooked better, they will taste better than the house special. I'm not saying go to Flushing etc. I'm saying even the local Chinese spots in crown heights make better versions.
