I was a little nervous at first walking in because we had reservations for 8:30 for 2 people. When we walked in at 8:30 there was a large party that had reservations at 8 waiting to be seated still. I could tell the staff was super overwhelmed and no one acknowledged us at first to the point I almost grabbed someone that was walking by to ask for a hostess. The large party was seated after about 10 minutes and things calmed down and then we were seated right away. It was smooth sailing after that. Our waiter was great and attentive. We started with the fries and crispy rice squares. Both were excellent. The crispy rice squares had the perfect crisp and the shrimp on top was delicious. The fries were perfectly cooked and had a sauce that complimented them well. My husband even asked for extra sauce for his dinner. For our main course we got the Rasta pasta and the salmon. The Rasta pasta wasn't on the dinner menu but they let me order it anyway which was very kind. The Rasta pasta was creamy and the jerk chicken seasoned well. The salmon was excellent as well. The ambience was cozy and well decorated. They also give you a warm scented towel after you eat and I love a nice touch like that. I will absolutely come here again and hope to try the oxtail ragu. I almost gave 4 stars due to the beginning of the experience but had to give 5 because the food was so good. read more

We finally had the pleasure of enjoying a wonderful meal at Bratts Hill. We are fans of Chef Darian and have been trying to get here since he opened. First of all the space is intimate, warm and lovely. We were seated quickly and received top notch service from start to finish. We started our meal with seared scallops. They were cooked perfectly and the bacon bourbon jam was a perfect addition to the butternut squash puree. It was the perfect bite and all the flavors blended perfectly. There was the perfect amount of spice in this dish, which is what we were hoping to see here. For my main I had the seafood risotto. It was a nice sized portion and there was a lot of seafood. Everything was cooked, portioned and seasoned wonderfully. My meal was very rich so I left very full and happy. The only thing I'll mention which isn't meant to be a complaint is that I thought there would be more Jamaican spices and touches in more of the dishes. There were some very specific Jamaican dishes but I was thinking there might be more fusion in the more contemporary local dishes. I should have asked and not assumed but I guess it means I just have to come back and try more menu items. Can't wait! read more

Went here after my co-worker told me about it. It had been awhile since we had any Jamaican food so we were super excited. I understand they have a fancier menu for dinner but we just went for the casual lunch menu. You order at the counter and pay for it and then they serve you at your table. Everything was delicious and well-seasoned. Price is a little higher than we were used to but portion sizes were pretty big as well. We both had enough leftovers for a second meal so can't complain. Looking forward to going back and trying out their dinner menu! read more

You don't understand...I flew from California and this was the best meal I ever had in Buffalo. The oxtail ragu is by far the best oxtail I've ever had. This pasta is 80% oxtail and 20% pasta. They are so generous!! Their entrees could feed two people by itself. The quality is unmatched. The kitchen is clean and open. I can't even order oxtail anywhere else because this place just set the bar so high. Also the service was amazing. Perfect date night or girls night out spot. read more

Bratts Hill by Chef Darian - Oxtail Ragu - Caribbean Near Me - Buffalo, New York

I cannot say enough about this restaurant. I went for my birthday and I am so happy I went. The atmosphere is very nice. It's relaxed and classy. I don't know what I was expecting but it was a great experience. When we arrived we were seated right away. I'm one of those people that has to check out the menu before I go so I had my options narrowed down to a few choices. Our waiter Phil was dope. He gave real answers to our questions and it's obvious that he enjoys what he does and he appreciates the food being served. We ultimately decided to start our dinner with the saltfish fritters and the coconut curry mussels. They were absolutely delicious. I am learning to be more open minded when it comes to seafood and I normally would not order mussels but I know my husband loves them so we decided to give them a try. The broth was out of this world. It was so flavorful. My husband was losing his mind. I really enjoyed them myself. The saltfish fritter were a no-brainer. I knew I was going to love them and I did. They come with this aioli sauce on the side to dip them in and I was ready to lick to the plate. When it was time to pick our meal for dinner, Phil was so detailed in the description of spice and serving size. It's obvious he enjoys the food. I went with he fried red snapper and my husband had the oxtail ragu. Now my husband is a chef and he always picks the better meal. It's like he just knows what going to be good. Well this time I picked a bomb meal. Don't get me wrong, his oxtail ragu was amazing. The oxtail was tender and the flavor of the sauce was literally something I have never had but would easily eat again. But baby that fried snapper was everything. The flavor was so damn good that I didn't even care that I got the entire fish (head and all). The rice and peas that came with it was so good. I rolled up my sleeves and got to work. I enjoyed every single bite. It was way too much food and we both ended up taking our meal home. I was really too full for dessert but I couldn't pass up the unique treats. I had the mango scotch bonnet sorbet and my husband had the coconut lime creme brulee. Again, we were both super satisfied. I can't explain the why or the how but something about the cold sorbet being sweet and having the heat of a scotch bonnet just did it for me. I loved it so much. You get three scopes and I was too full to finish it. I would love to have it again on a summer day. My husband loved his creme brulee. He loved that the key lime was still present and the coconut was still strong but not too much that it overpowered the lime. Although he was pouting because he said he should have got the carrot cake to go. Ha! What I really enjoyed is Chef Chris came out and visited every table. He is so kind and welcoming. He took his time talking to us and gave us some great options from the menu to consider when we come back. He expressed that the kindness and friendliness in Buffalo is like that of Jamaica and it's one of the reasons he has stayed and continued to work with Chef Darian. It was a wonderful experience and I can't wait to return with my parents. They're going to love it. read more

Chef Darian knows what he's doing! This spot has been on my list for a long time since they opened and I finally got over here for lunch. It's a perfect fit in the Larkinville area and offers a good change up from the usual lunch menus around town. The lunch vibes here are emmaculate on a nice summer day. The interior gives it an upscale vibe with friendly service for your whole meal. I ordered the Jerk Chicken Caesar salad and it might be my new favorite salad. (Which sounds a little funny to write) Yes, it may be just a salad but you can definitely do salad right and wrong. Chef Darian does it right! The chicken is spiced perfectly, the lettuce tastes fresh and crispy, the croutons are easy to put a fork in and don't crumble, and it has plenty of cheese. You can't go wrong with this lunch. It also has tomatoes on it but I just may have ignored those. I have to come back for their dinner service and try some of the other dishes but I might have found a new go-to spot for lunch. read more

Let's start with the positives- loved the ambiance. Interior was bright and airy. Loved the tropical touches throughout the place and the playlist was awesome. Jammed throughout our entire meal. The sorrel smash cocktail was amazing! We liked our curry chicken and chickpea dumplings (spring special). And the sticky toffee pudding dessert was our best dish of the night! Now let's get to the negatives- we were 1 of the 1st people at the restaurant. We arrived right at opening. So we didn't like the fact that our food took so long to come out. We literally waited like 40/45 mins for our entrees to be served. Once the entrees arrived, we were highly disappointed. I had the Chilean seabass special. The broth that the seabass was on was cold. Seabass was piping hot and overly crispy. And on top of that it was a very thin piece of seabass so all I tasted was an overly crispy and oily crust, hardly any fish. My husband had the red snapper entree which was just alright. The snapper was cooked well, the rice and peas however were bland. Definitely could have had more seasoning. I'm hesitant to go back here but I want to go back to try the Jerk experience and hopefully that will be the redemption meal for this place. Let's see... read more

I went here for lunch and the staff was friendly, provided our food really quickly, and the decor of the place was very beautiful. I loved the natural light and plants.

Bratts Hill by Chef Darian - Pumpkin soup. Not sweet at all perfection - Caribbean Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Great spot for Caribbean food, but my experience was a bit of a letdown due to the lunch setup. I had the oxtail and substituted cabbage instead of rice and peas. The meat was super tender, falling off the bone along with the collagen - exactly how oxtail should be done. The stew was seasoned perfectly with a hint of spice that was absolutely delicious. I also tried the jerk chicken, which was juicy, well-seasoned, and had just the right amount of heat. No complaints about the flavors; the food was definitely the highlight. That said, I came here for lunch and was disappointed to find that the food menu was completely different from what was posted on Yelp. The service was a cafeteria setup with food served on plastic plates, and no alcoholic beverages available. While I understand a more casual approach for lunch, the experience was underwhelming, and I wouldn't come back during this time. The ambiance was casual with a lot of people from the surrounding office buildings grabbing a quick bite. It's clearly a convenient spot for a fast meal, but not what I expected based on the restaurant's reputation. Overall, the food was great and is the only reason I'm willing to give this place another shot. I'll return for dinner to get a better sense of what this place is really about, but for now, lunch was a miss for me. read more

Finally made it here during Black Restaurant Week. Although i've forgotten the name of the dish, it was jerk chicken with rasta pasta. ordered it for takeout. Absolutely delicious, even tho it was a bit spicer than I would usually like. Staff was helpful and pleasant, both on the phone ordering and when I went in to pick it up. Portion was huge for the price paid. looking forward to returning, especially since I knw now where to park. read more

I have gone here a few times now and I have never been disappointed. I have only had the jerk chicken but it was amazing and I could've ate ten more pieces. The owner came out the one time while I was there and he was saying hello to everyone and checking in on them which I thought was a nice touch. Also finally tried plaintans which were super good. The atmosphere is really nice and inside the reaturaunt is beautiful. It has been busy both times I went. I have only eaten lunch there but I will definitely try them out for dinner one night.! Highly recommend. read more

We didn't have reservations, but we were seated right away and appreciated this. The host was a friendly gentleman who wore a fabulous dinosaur sweater that brought a smile to my face when I need it at the most. Our waiter was attentive to my dietary restrictions and pleasant. We went with the prix fixe meal that occurs on Thursday nights, not knowing that we picked this night. We also added the drink pairing and at $98 per person it was a steal. We both went with the cassava fries. The jalapeño aioli was outstanding. They need to bottle it and sell it. The fries were also great. I went with the oxtail meal and Phil went with the rasta pasta. He very much enjoyed the pasta and there was so much in the deep bowl presented to him, that he actually took a substantial take out container home with him. The oxtail dinner was delicious. I really enjoyed the plantains and the cabbage dish, which was a surprise. Im not a cabbage girl, but the flavors , wow! For dessert I went with the creme Brule, which was wonderful and Phil had the rurum raisin ice cream. I tried some, and also enjoyed it. The three drinks were all great as well. We had a drink that the waiter lit of fire, a wine and a creamy rum drink. Cannot say one bad thing about this place. The ambiance was relaxing and had great vibes. Next time we will try the table side Jamaican jerk. read more

Came here for my birthday; it was good but not great. Service was very good, as was my spicy margarita cocktail (which was lit ablaze!! So cool!) but my salmon, rice and vegetables lacked flavor.

We went with friends in mid-July and it was a great first experience. The drinks were fun and pretty and good for the most part (I think there was one that we didn't love), and the food was delicious. We got the ceviché to start which was yummy. We are usually picky when it comes ceviché cause we typically only like the authentic Peruvian style, but this one had great flavor and everything tasted fresh, and the chips that came with it were so good we asked for another serving. Hubby went with the steak and he almost licked the plate. Me and another friend got the bolognese and were both very happy with it. The 4th friend got the ramen and she enjoyed that as well. Service was great and as you can see from the pics, the presentation and preparation of some dishes were unique and fun. We also shared some desserts that I must have forgotten to take pics of before we devoured them. Overall, an excellent dinner that everyone enjoyed immensely. If I had to pick a "con", it was the lack of "air con". It was a hot and humid July day, and I run hot and was sweaty throughout the entire meal cause they left all the windows/doors open due to the open concept of the building. It probably wasn't a problem for most people who enjoy the heat, but it kinda put a damper on me, literally, as my head was damp the entire time and my hair was ruined lol. But I still loved the place and food and everything about it, and we will definitely be back to try the table side jerk experience for two! read more

Another wonderful experience at Bratts Hill! I've been here for both lunch and dinner and it's delicious each and every time. You always receive a warm welcome when you arrive. Everyone is genuinely friendly and accommodating. The cocktails are something special and always made with the highest quality ingredients and liquor. The food is delectable and extremely flavorful. The dinner ambiance has a fun yet romantic vibe in the dimly lit dining room with candles going and acoustic music with island vibes playing in the background.

So glad we stopped in to Bratts Hill! read more

Very well done. The service was great, the food was delicious. The only thing preventing a five star review was this : we ordered the table side jerk platter and it was very well done.

My wife and I are always looking for restaurants that offer authentic cuisine and dishes. Bratts Hill hit a home-run when we went there for dinner on a Saturday night. The drinks, especially the espresso martini with Jamaican cream was outstanding. The ceviche appetizer was more than amazing prepared to perfection and our dinners were nothing less. The blue mountain steak and the jerk shrimp special. Set in Larkinville downtown buffalo the ambience was warm and our waitress and service was spot on. Absolutely a restaurant you need to try. A little pricey as advertised but well worth it. Parking can be a bit confusing but it was great to see they had signage that helped make it super easy to find. Good for them. As far as we're concerned an absolute staple that we will come back to. read more

After ordering for lunch at work all the time i finally got a chance to visit the actual restaurant and it's soooooo nice! The bartender greeted us immediately and we took seats at the bar. It was late so we decided just to have a drink and something not too heavy. If you order for delivery just know that the menu is not the same. I opted for the salmon and my sister got her favorite- the oxtail ragu. Delicious!!! This place is well decorated, clean, and welcoming so I will definitely be back to try another dish and hopefully a dessert! read more

Felt like we walked into an upscale vacation just down the street from our house with the music and low lighting. It's located in Larkinville so we knew parking would be easy. We were greeted by both the host and bartender as we walked in and were seated quickly. I recommend making a reservation just in case but we didn't need one. We started with the flatbread hummus appetizer. The hummus was AMAZiNG but the flatbread was cold. I'm not sure if it was supposed to be cold or if it just wasn't prepared correctly for us but either way I would've preferred it warm. Then I got a delicious pumpkin penne pasta that had just the right amount of spice to it. It had fried plantains on it (I think that's what they were?) and they had the texture of chicken fingers on the outside which I really liked but it was vegan. My husband got an oxtail pasta and really loved his too but said he didn't feel it was worth 40 bucks. We are typically more causal type diners but we were celebrating something so we splurged. Definitely check out the menu online before going for two reasons: I think the menu changes often, and to make sure you are comfortable with the prices. read more

The saying is true - Variety is the Spice of Life, meaning that new and Exciting experiences make life more Interesting. Well once you step into Bratt's Hill you'll be tasting new Flavors and trying something that'll be Jamaican you come back again and again. My 1st time tasting them was after me and my Dad went to run a personal errand downtown. On the way home we decided to stop for Lunch, after seeing that Swan Street diner was gonna be a bit of a wait. We walked across the Street to Bratt's Hill while meeting Darian Bryan unexpectedly. We were sat in the back of the Restaurant; we placed our Orders and got some Rice Bowls. Dad got Jerk Chicken along with some Banana Bread (which I thought was ok), myself I got both Jerk Chicken and Curried Goat, both Meats were so Tender and packed with some Kick, Braised Cabbage and Fried Plantains (I wasn't crazy for) as Sides. Dad thought it was pricey for Lunch (seeing as it came out to over $60, but I thought it was well worth it). My next visit came 2 Weeks later with my relatives, my Uncle Jimmy got a Gift Certificate through his Work. We arrived at a packed and well-lit Atmosphere, as we were sat in one of the Far Corners awaiting a fun Meal. The moment Mike & Brianna showed up, now the party can Start. Everyone started with some Drinks like Jimmy getting Wray & Ting packed with Grapefruit flavor, me and Kathy getting the Sorrel Smash packed with Bourbon, Sorrel, Pomegranate, Lime & Allspice and Brianna trying out some Spanish Wine. I started off with a bowl of Red Pea Soup with Mysterious treasures like Stewed Beef and Smoked Pig's Tail, Fresh Island Ceviche with Scallops, Shrimp and Whitefish mixed with Orange, Lemon, Lime and Scotch Bonnet. Seafood was screamingly fresh with Bright clean Flavor and heat at the end. As long as you are not Sheep-ish then you should try their Lamb Ribs that were fall off the Bone tender with Mango-Habanero BBQ Sauce. Along with a pure taste of Jamaica as in Spring Rolls that were filled with Onions, Salt Cod and Ackee (Caribbean Fruit) and served with a Jalapeno Aioli. Kathy and I had the pleasure of having another Cocktail called Salt River, vibrant Blue with Tequila and Blue Curacao, Pachuca, Lime, Orgeat and a bright green Matcha Salt Rim. The earthy and sweet Rim balanced well with the richness of the Drink. For our Entrees, Kathy got the Rasta Ramen with Jerk Chicken, they give you a Beaker tableside and you heat up your own broth and let it fuse with Herbs to develop more Flavor. Then it goes in a Bowl with Fresh Noodles, Okra, Red Bell Peppers, Purple Cabbage and Soft-Boiled Eggs. It was like watching a Culinary Science Class demonstration. Jimmy got the Pan Roasted Chilean Seabass with Rice, Pickled Vegetables, Braised Cabbage and a tangy White Wine-Tomato Sauce. Brianna enjoyed one of their few Vegetarian offerings, Penne Pasta with Pumpkin Puree, Fried Plantains, Coconut Cream Sauce and some Scotch Bonnet Dust. Both me and Mike were on the same wavelength with our Dish, tender Oxtail Ragu over Fresh Tagliatelle Pasta with Mushrooms and a Rich Tomato Cream Sauce. Big Chunks of Ox Meat you can integrate fresh Pasta with and thin strands of Habanero Pepper to give it a Kick. To finish off the Meal, we had some adventurous Desserts, Mike and Brianna split a Coconut Lime-Creme Brulee, we split a Mango-Scotch Bonnet Sorbet, a Palate Cleanser with a Bang. The moment the sorbet melts on your tongue, you get the sweetness of the Tropical Fruit, but moments later you feel a firecracker lingering on your Tongue (it was fun to enjoy). Lastly to pay respect to one of the worker's mothers we had Tilly's Sundae. It was a Jamaican Black Cake that was soaked in Red Wine for a Week with Vanilla Ice Cream topped with Coconut Whipped Cream and a drizzle of Caramel. The cake had a nice density to it almost like a Pound Cake, while it had a robust sweet taste of Fruit. The Ice Cream was rich and had a creamy Consistency. Shame that Darian Bryan was not available to talk but I support him regardless. The only negative thing I had to say about the entire evening was that, some of our items were taking longer to come out than others and it felt a little disorganized. But other than that, everything else (especially the Food) was Spot on. Restaurants like this gives Buffalo a flavor Experience that they can't get anywhere else. For Bratt's Hill, I don't care how many Hills I'd have to go over to get there. I'd Ja-make it just for some Quality Dinner. !!! read more

We took a chance and stopped in without reservations late on a Saturday thinking there was no way but we got lucky. The host, our server and all who waited on us were fantastic. We loved the decor and the atmosphere - it was relaxed but felt upscale. The food was outstanding. We had a special called the Sweetheart Platter (for 2). Everything had incredible flavor but wasn't overdone. The scallops and steak were tender and melt in your mouth. The lobster very unique with jerk flavor and the rice and beans and the plantains a perfect complement.

I truly can't say enough wonderful things about the food, atmosphere, team, service, and the sense of family & community at Bratts Hill by Chef Darian. Chef Darian has truly changed the Buffalo food scene with his knowledge and passion for culinary art and his enthusiasm for teaching us all about Jamaican cuisine. I highly recommend going to get a plate of Chicken Rasta Pasta for quick service lunch. You will be greeted by the staff like family and they will happily answer any questions you have and guide you if you need help with your order. The dinner scene at Bratts Hill is unlike anything else we have in Buffalo. The flavors, cocktails, appetizers, main courses, and desserts are all so exciting and delicious!
