We have been here twice in the past 3 weeks and tried different dishes each time. They have hit it out of the park with each one. Curry Goat - excellent, not too spicy. Curry Chicken - spot on perfect. Jerk Chicken - very good but not spicy enough for me. Still very tasty. Rice and peas - not overly dry like many I have had, very flavorful and cooked tender. (these are as good as the ones I cook). Plantains - excellent, sweet and nicely done. I always get a few Tings to chase it all down. It is hard to find these drinks in the states. They have a large assortment of caribbean sodas. I love this place and I will go back every Friday for my BBF until we pull out of Lakeland and head north for the summer.

I had the Brown Stwed Chicken, rice and peas, collard greens and Mac and cheese. I can't even find the right adjectives to describe how good this food is.

I visited Nyammins Kitchen and Grill earlier today for lunch. As soon as I opened the door to the…read morerestaurant I was hit with mouthwatering aromas. The staff recommended the Curry Goat so that's what I ordered with sides of Collard Greens and Sweet Plantains. The restaurant has no dining space and does to go orders only. So all the food was piled in a massive to go container. This could have fed two people easily. The Goat was tender, gamey, and was covered in a flavorful lightly spicy curry sauce. The meat sat on a bed of soft savory rice that soaked up the escaping flavors. The Collard Greens were juicy, tender and lightly sweet. The plantains were soft and sweet. Overall, Nyammins is a great option for a quality filling lunch.

Looks a bit sketchy outside, but I've never had an issue with service or the area. Their food tastes great. I've ordered the oxtails, curry chicken and Mac and cheese (served only on Fridays). It's the only Jamaican restaurant that I know of in the area. Meals range from $10-18. Sides are cheaper. Lots of locals come here, and they just walk straight to the front of the line and yell out their order. They need some organization in this manner, but it is a bit of a 'hole in the wall.' I recommend this restaurant if you're craving this particular cuisine, you want to just grab and go, and you're looking for reasonable prices.

My Masas de Cerdo Fritas, with white rice and black beans, although a little on the dry side was tender and flavorful and beautifully presented. The sides were expertly prepared and the black beans were extremely flavorful. If it weren't for the pork being on the dry side, this would have been a 5 star review from me, which I rarely give. I am looking forward to returning to see if I can revisit my review and add that star.

We were greeted immediately and taken to a table where a birthday card signed by the staff was waiting for me. They even created a personalized menu that I got to keep. Those thoughtful touches meant so much. And the food... WOW! The Delmonico was huge and cooked to perfection. The ropa vieja was full of flavor, with meat so tender it just fell apart. And the risotto? Goodness, you just have to try it. I can't even explain how good it was! The Brussels sprouts could have been a meal on their own, and the tres leches was absolutely divine. Meadow deserves a special mention. She was so sweet, professional, and kind, and getting to know a little more about her made the evening even better. What an amazing human! The place is beautiful.

I only went inside to use the restroom. The spaces looked nicely decorated. It definitely has an upscale vibe which matches the quality of the food. Restrooms: They had three gender neutral bathrooms. They were nice and clean. The one I used had a changing station for babies. Service: Our server was very friendly and so sweet. She was very attentive. She seemed to be working a lot of tables so the service was a little slow but it didn't bother us. She did forget our complementary drink for first time diners. She did have a lot going on so it didn't bother us either. Everyone was super friendly. Food: We really enjoyed our food. We got the 'Brussel Sprout' lunch starter and it was so good! It was packed with the flavor. The brussel sprouts were the perfect crispness. We both had their lunch special which was sooo good! This is definitely some top notch food for Lakeland. I can see why it is Michelin Recommended. The prices were reasonable too. This restaurant is on par with the top restaurants in Tampa! We loved our lunch and we will definitely be back. We want to check out their roof top bar. Always remember to shop and support local businesses. @therealistreg

Me and my fiancé went to this restaurant right after Church, after seeing some food pictures…read moreonline, and this is our first and most likely last. We were greeted by a waitress... a couple mins. We received a complimentary noodle soup, we ate it and it was delicious. We had 2 waiters taking care of us. We then proceeded to tell him our order A couple apps, and a couple entrees for me and her.... I can't recall how long we waited to get our appetizers, but it wasn't too long..... so, we ate them slowly, thinking we were going to get our meals very soon. But that didn't happen... Our waiter then says to us, please be patient, our food takes time to make, so we didn't think anything about at the time..... but I started to notice.... One side of the restaurant, looks empty, and we sat right by the kitchen, and the other side.... I couldn't see if there was people or not..... and it's now, 30 mins in and all I see are, 3-4 waiters just hauling food to one side of the restaurant and we still haven't got an update, no one showed up to our table with food or nothing, now it's past 45 mins in.... And me and my fiancé are getting irritated and pissed... she got up and asked about the food and the waiter just nonchalantly tells her, it's coming out.... Now, it's over an hour and we're beyond pissed.... Everyone around us, receiving food but us. We didn't even order but 2 appetizers and 2 small entrees..... it was so bad, got into an argument with the staff and they comp us one meal and that's it. And made them wrap up our food to go. I hope they fix that, Because that's ridiculous and just disrespectful to us to make us wait for over an hour. It's our first time and most likely our last......
