Jerk salmon rice & peas, spinach and plantain

Love this place! Their food truck was my go-to for lunch but I started going to the actual restaurant when the truck was running out of chicken patties I only have photos of the salmon (so good, I got it catered lol) but all their food is great!! Honorable mentions: their coco bread sandwiches, jerk chicken/wings, curry chicken, ackee & cod. Oh and their mac & cheese isn't half bad The catering order wasn't done in time for pick up despite me ordering and paying well in advance. I even called prior to pickup to confirm. When I arrived I was told they were 86'd Salmon. After waiting a while I was then told they were going out to buy the salmon and they would drop it off at the venue. I appreciate that they rectified it but someone could've told me in advance that the order wasn't going to be ready in time. How do you not tell someone 35 pieces of salmon aren't ready? The guests loved it though. Outside of that, I've never had any issues.

Horrible service & Horrible food!!!! Will not be returning. Ordered the curry chicken lunch special with rice and beans and green beans because they were out of cabbage. The string beans were cold and taste like they dumped them directly from the can to my platter. Disgusting!!! Made me want to vomit. The Mac wasn't bad however I really don't understand why Caribbean's feast considers rice and beans as a side option when it typically comes with your choice of meat.

Vegan Jerk Chicken, Steamed Cabbage, Mac and Cheese

The vegan/vegetarian options are amazing. It's hard to find this kind of quality food!!!

Great food, nice servers, they didn't run out of food, and they had people served and flowing...yes they did! By far the best Caribbean/Jamaican food restaurant I had in Philly (still collecting data and doing research lol). I can see why this place came highly recommended. This restaurant was previously dine in but due to Covid they are still take out only. They have the ordering area roped off to help patrons follow the direction of flow. There was a constant flow of people but social distancing was easily maintained. The lighting was a bit dim but themed well. I ordered the jerk chicken with rice and peas, plantains, and collard greens and our other order was half jerk and half bbq wings with rice and peas, mac & cheese, plantains. Everything was amazing! The jerk was very spicy like I like it, plantains we're done perfectly, and not one item was disappointing. I got a medium and the serving was huge and was enough for 2-3 meals. The price was generally high but the ingredients are usually expensive but well worth it! Can't wait for my next meal from here!

Jerk chicken is delicious
Retna S.

Delicious authentic Caribbean food. Jerk chicken: perfect seasoning, very tender and moist. Fried plantain is not overly fried but it's not sweet. Bbq jerk chicken: delicious barbecue seasoning. I ordered take out and the sauce can spill over so be careful. The steamed cabbage has some kick of spice.

Jerk Chicken Rice and Bean
J B.

I got this food at the food truck and I must say it is pretty reasonably priced for the food that you receive. The jerk chicken did not come with the sauce on it, so I had to ask to have the sauce added to the chicken and it's not hot at all. The jerk chicken was more or less chicken breast and not actual meat that came off of the bone. The macaroni and cheese is below average and the cabbage did have any flavor to it at all. The fried plantains were pretty sweet but I did not think that they were fried to the best of their ability. Overall I think that the dish was pretty average. You get a lot of rice and beans more than anything; I wouldn't get again

Lunch sampler: jerk chicken over beans and rice with oxtail sauce with a side of plantains
Rita A.

I came here today with a group of 5 people for takeout lunch and we LOVED EVERYTHING. No roti today, which was a bummer, but I loved my $6.50 lunch (jerk chicken lunch sampler with beans and rice with oxtail sauce and an extra side of plantains). It came tightly packed in a small container but it was enough food to fill me up without being stuffed. The food was very flavorful and cooked perfectly. This has been our favorite lunch experience around Temple Hospital so far!

Jerk chicken Mac and cheese with greens
Koya W.

I came here first time today. I parked right across the street. There was a few people inside eating and people was coming in and out the whole time I was there. Which showed me a good sign. The service was EXCELLENT! The staff greeted you when you walked in and smiled made jokes and me cracking up. I ordered jerk chicken, Mac and cheese with a side of greens also the oxtails, peas and rice with a side of greens. I also had a side of plantain and a bottle of ting and the peach tea. The pricing was okay and I tipped them pretty good as the service was quick and very pleasant. Now as for the taste of the plantain ... nice texture, sweet and cooked to perfection. The jerk was a little spicy and in some gravy which was different. The Mac has a different twist on it but it taste good while the greens was very flavorful with a hint of spicy it too was good. My boyfriend said his oxtails were okay just a little tuff and the peas and rice was cooked by not "fluffy " like some other Jamaican restaurants. We both agreed that we would eat here again, but it definitely wouldn't be our first choice.

In Philly for the weekend and heard great things about this place so I had to check it out myself. Upon entry the restaurant was well kept, aromas from the food were amazing and the guy behind the counter answered all my questions and even made suggestions. I selected the veggie Roti with Pink lemonade and the veggie pepper steak with a peach tea. The Veggie Roti was so good!!! I was so disappointed I only brought one to take back on my trip home! Service excellent, food amazing and tons of Veggie/Vegan options!!! Great job!

Tons of food

As a disclaimer, this review is just MY (and my dining partner's) experience. I don't want to be unnecessarily harsh, but I do want to be honest. I first learned about Caribbean Feast through the Caribbean Nights event featured on Yelp. It seemed like it would be for a good cause and I do love me some Caribbean cuisine, so I thought, why not? Well, let's start with the service. I think our waiter was in, like, middle school. He looked young and seemed really new to this whole thing. Not that I had a problem with this, but I guess it explains some of the other kinks of the night. He kept coming over and asking how we were, even when we were still waiting for our order to come out. What could we say to the fifth time he came over when we were just sitting there with an unopened bottle of wine, a couple of empty wine glasses and an empty table in front of us? According to the menu, dinner entrees come with soup or salad and bread, but after about half an hour with nothing (not even water), our waiter came up to us and asked us, "Do you want some salad or bread or something?" Bewildered, we said yes to the salad, which was pretty crisp and fresh. Oh yeah, speaking of wine. It's a BYOB. But you may want to bring your own corkscrew. Either that or a screwtop. Is there nothing more frustrating than being incredibly thirsty and having a bottle of wine in front of you, but nothing to open it with? After about two hours of "We're still looking for the corkscrew," our waiter finally came and told us that he could open up our bottle. After we were finished with our entrees. Props to the lady who reminded the waiter that we still had a wine bottle that needed to be opened. But all that's ancillary to what I REALLY care about: the food. Let me say, this place has the BEST corn bread I've ever had, hands down. I'd even come up here to grab a platter of corn bread and skedaddle back home. God, what do they make that with? A skillet? There's gotta be some sorcery at work here. That corn bread alone warrants a whole additional star. The portion sizes are generous; all the customers I saw eventually got takeout boxes. I was a little disappointed that my jerk shrimp and some of our side orders were drowned in a pool of oil when I received it. It was a bit difficult to taste the jerk spices around the oiliness, but once you get past that, you've got that spicy, smoky, distinctly Jamaican flavor. Juiciness can be difficult to accomplish with jerk chicken, but this place nails it. Would I come back? Maybe for takeout. Or that corn bread. But the service here was way too sketchy for me to come back for a sit-down meal; seems like made-to-order food is not their forte.

My selections were: coconut shrimp, butter chicken and carrot cake. Coconut shrimp had a nice crisp to it & I enjoyed it. The butter chicken was good, very subtle spices.

Overall meh. Indian take on West Indian cuisine. Fell short on the flavor profile for West Indian…read morefood being as though there were a lot of West Indian dishes. Oxtails taste sweet and needed salt and the right base for the sauce..was lacking the appropriate flavor profile. The rice tasted like basmati which is cool for Indian cuisines but usually with dishes like Oxtails or Jerk Chicken I'd expect red beans and white grain rice cooked in coconut milk for the flavor profile. Mussels are delicious, they just don't give you a lot of them if you go during any of their prefixed menu offerings. Coconut shrimp are good. Carrot cake was one of the best I've tasted in a long time. Even if your not a fan of carrot cake I think you'll enjoy. There weren't big chunks of fruit or nuts inside. It was layered, fluffy, moist, cream cheese icing spot on, just really spot on. I could have ordered a cake to go and left the food. Drinks are pricey for what you get in return. Some of the drinks are watered down, like their "Sex on the Boat." They give it to you in this cute boat shaped dish with a straw with flashing lights (photo/vid attached) but there's a ton of ice and not much alcohol or flavor. You also have to wait for your entire party before ordering appetizers. Very strange to me. Most places will allow you to order drinks and appetizers while you wait for the rest of your party. Also be mindful that there's an 18% charge for credit card. If that bothers you be prepared to bring cash. They typically will only allow you to split the check two ways so for larger parties it's best to bring cash to avoid confusion when everyone is paying for themselves.

Little Delicious is just as the name implies, except I wouldn't describe the portions as "little"…read morein the slightest. I came here with some colleagues for lunch on a weekday and it absolutely hit the spot. The interior is a nice space where you order food at the counter in the back and either take food to go or sit in the dining booths. The jerk chicken (wet-style) was expertly cooked and had great flavor. My favorite part of the dish was the amazing sides. We tried the rice & beans, plantains, and collard greens - all were fantastic, especially the plantains. The small platter size with a side is plenty of food for lunch and I'll probably be having some for dinner as well. I saw they had Mac & Cheese on the menu but looks like they've only got it on Fridays and weekends so we'll have to come back. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful. Really wonderful people.

I'm not sure if it is the same owner, but I was in the area. Wanted to try it to see if it was still as good as it was Back In The Day. Parking is street parking and it could be very hard if it's a busy day. They have an ATM machine they do not take cards so bring cash. I got the oxtails and I got a large cornmeal porridge. The oxtails were OK. I really just wasn't tasting the oxtail taste and they were kinda tender; not as tender as I would have liked them to be. Overall, I wasn't impressed. I feel like it didn't taste as good as it did Back In The Day. I did enjoy the porridge because not many Jamaican restaurants offer it outside of morning time. if I am in the area, I will go back and maybe try something else but I definitely will be getting the porridge. It was really good and sweet.

Wanting to have some variety, I sought out some Caribbean cuisine. I remember hearing about one…read morecalled Jamaican D's. So my brother and I decided to head over to see if what I heard was true. I'm happy to report, it was very very good! Some things to note: They take cash only. They have an ATM inside just in case, but make sure you have cash only you before you go. Make sure you pay attention when traveling to this establishment, as there are many intersections, one way streets, and streets that go from two to one lane. Also, there may be someone who will ask you to get them some food. Once we parked the car, we heard the reggae music coming from their front door. You can't miss it. The menu is on the wall, as well as being taped down to the counter by the order window. If they're out of something they will let you know before you order. When I went they were out of oxtail (a highly sought after dish in Caribbean cuisine). I had the jerk chicken with collard greens, white rice, and macaroni and cheese. My brother ordered the fried whiting, but I guess she didn't hear him correctly (trust me the music there is quite loud inside even though it's even louder outside), because he got the same thing I did. Now, we drove home, the car smelling amazing, and I forgot to take some photos for this review. But even so, I will definitely be back. The food was excellent, the prices were decent, and the service was fast. If you're looking for an adventure, check out Jamaican D's!

The jerk chicken presentation was not pleasant and they were a bit dry. The sauce helped. I look forward to going back and trying oxtails and goat. I will definitely get the yams as a side.

I preferred to sit outside, so I was eventually able to grab a table and a menu. It took a little while for someone to bring water and utensils. By the time they came over, I was already ready to order. I ordered the bistec encebollado and was impressed by the portion size! they give you a generous amount of steak. Unfortunately, the steak had quite a bit of fat around it, which isn't my favorite. When the food arrived, the rice was packed into a small cup, which made me think everything would be served hot. Unfortunately, none of the food was warm. Everything was room temperature and lacked flavor. Because it took a while for my meal to arrive, I got the impression that it may have been sitting out before being served. I ate it as it was because I didn't want to wait any longer. Taste-wise, the steak needed more seasoning, although the beans were good. Overall, the meal was average. After finishing, I asked for both a to-go box and the check. About 10 minutes later, the check arrived, but no box. One employee, William, really stood out. Whenever he stopped by, he was attentive, friendly, and on top of things. I appreciated his service and how proactive he was in checking on guests. Overall, the service had some delays, the food temperature was disappointing, and the flavors were underwhelming, not sure if I'll try this place again.
