WOW. I don't think I ever would've tried this place if it wasn't for the SGV Passport! Our deal was Buy 1 or 2 Jamaican style meat patty, get 1 or 2 free! And I had to ask "What is a Jamaican Style Meat Patty"? and they told me it's like an empanada! But WOAH. It's much bigger than any empanada I've ever seen! The staff was super nice on the phone to me when they explained what it was and that we were able to turn the meat patty into a vegetarian friendly version - nice! They also had a vegetarian one! So we grabbed 2 and got 2 free then decided to also order their vegetarian curry because we thought the meat patties wouldn't be enough. But omg. It was more than enough! The meat patties were huge and thick! And so so so FLAVORFUL! When you come to their shop inside the food hall the shop looks unassuming, it's cluttered and doesn't really give me the excitement of wanting to order here but wow wow wow. Once we ate it we were like "we shouldn't have judged!" Once we dived into the curry we were just waaaay to full but the vegetarian curry was so good. Not as flavorful as the meat patty (should've had the curry first so our tastebuds wern't overwhelmed!" but still tasty nonetheless! It had so much chickpeas and the rice was pretty good! I think we're going to have to come back and try it again when we're in the area! read more

I was eager to try Caribbean Gourmet, as I love Caribbean cuisine, jerk chicken, and oxtail. I was initially unsure what to order, but the woman at the counter recommended the Oxtail & Jerk Combo ($23) with half portions, which was excellent! The Jerk chicken was cooked perfectly, though the spice level was mild, even after a warning. The oxtail was tender and good, but not the best I've had. While the rice and beans were a bit too wet, the plantains and cabbage were great. I would have preferred some hot sauce and fluffier rice, but overall it was a solid meal. A text notification system for when orders are ready would be a helpful addition, especially for those seated away from the counter. The staff member gave an estimated time, and my food was actually ready sooner, which I wasn't aware of. While not a major issue, this is an area that could be improved. The service was friendly and helpful, and I would definitely return to try more of their dishes. While the food overall was good, a few things fell short, like the rice. Overall, it's a tough call because the food deserves more than 4 stars. Caribbean Gourmet is easily the best Caribbean spot in the SGV and my second favorite in LA County. The prices are very fair for the portion sizes, and I must highlight how affordable they are, especially these days. Kudos to Caribbean Gourmet for keeping prices affordable while serving delicious food! read more

pretty yummy but very spicy! The oxtail is very tender and the chicken is good too. Rice is very fluffy and not dry. To be honest, it's too spicy for me. Workers here are very friendly. Food takes about 15 minutes to come out. Ambiance is very casual read more

The family came to use up a coupon from an SGV passport of a buy 1 get 1 free patty. I bought 1 vegetarian and a beef curry. Both were huge and delicious! Vegetarian totally caught me by surprise it was really flavorful and unique (collared greens?) Easily a good sizable snack that can also be a quick/easy meal for someone. Will be back to try the oxtail next time! read more

Was craving some oxtail and found this spot that is raved about! Located inside a food hall with other business, this spot is easy to find and order from. Service and food was really quick. You can order to go or eat in tables they have at the hall. Large menu to choose from but I wanted to eat some oxtail. The plate was very well filled along with seasoned veggies and rice. I enjoyed every portion of the dish and the meat was very tender. I will definitely try again read more

Came on a Thursday night around 7pm to use my SGV passport for the bogo deal. Listened to the other yelper about buying two meat patties and I'm so glad I did. I enjoyed the beef as well but flavor is more noticeable on chicken. The hot sauce doesn't come with it but you can ask for it on the side. Hot sauce is a nice touch but be careful with the amount because it does have a kick! What I do love is that there's a lot of meat compared to pastry & the pastry itself is well made. I've also had the oxtail here and it's also amazing. It took maybe less than 10 minutes for me to receive my Jamaican patty order. The workers are very nice and you can tell they genuinely appreciate serving. I would come back again. read more

This is a no frills food stalls within the Blossom Market that stands out from their counterparts. It's good to see non-Asian stalls here and I was really craving a puff pastry. The veggie was the only non-spicy item, so decided to get that. Both my mom and I enjoyed it - hot to order and super flavorful. Wish we could order more from here, but the staff were pretty friendly! Would come back again read more

Finally stumbled upon this place after having this bookmarked for a while since they opened. Was really craving some oxtails so this was the perfect place. Stopped by during lunch on a weekday and the market wasn't too busy. This restaurant is inside Blossom Market, which is a food hall consisting of multiple food/beverage stalls. Overall the dish was very delicious, in terms of flavor profile and how well each ingredient paired with each other. The oxtails were fall off the bone, extremely tender, didn't feel too fatty. I wish there was more spicy heat from the oxtails, there was practically no spice at all. The plantains were perfectly cooked, almost tasted like a banana mochi. The rice was my favorite, it had an amazing coconut aroma and nice little bits of peas for texture. The sauce from the oxtail paired perfectly with the rice. The veggies were a nice palate cleanser from the rich oxtail, unfortunately there was a strand of hair in there which I took out, no big deal. Counter ordering so not much service is being provided. Probably took around 6-7 minutes for the food to come out. It's open kitchen so you can see the workers prepping your food. read more

Caribbean Gourmet - Oxtail Stew - Caribbean Near Me - San Gabriel, California

Caribbean Gourmet is located inside Blossom Market. Their menu includes various types of chicken plates, patties (empanadas like), pastries, and drinks. I stopped by to try their patties which look alike empanadas. I placed my order of the following: - chicken patty 5/5 - vegetarian patty 5/5 - jamaican beef patty 5/5 - Turkey patty 5/5 I wanted to try the different patties they have. The service was really fast. All the patties were very fresh, hot,and rich in flavors. The crust was golden and flaky. The fillings were very savory, juicy, well seasoned and flavorful. There was a letter on each kind of patty to differentiate between them. This was very nice and convenient.The staff were very attentive and friendly. I really enjoyed their patties. Definitely, I will stop by to order them again and try other Carribean dishes. read more

I've had Caribbean Gourmet on my radar for a while and finally got a chance to try it - all I can say is I'm mad at myself for not trying it sooner! The food was so flavorful and comforting - reminded me of the southern soul food I grew up eating and I'll definitely be going out of my way to try some pastries and their weekend specials when I'm in the area! We tried the jerk chicken plate and the chicken curry roti for our first visit and loved them both. The jerk chicken was the clear winner for us though - perfect blend of warming spices on a flawlessly tender chicken quarter (dark meat), coupled with rice and a nice veggie blend - heaven itself! The rice was also incredibly flavorful - and I LOVED the roasted plantains - a perfect accompaniment! Absolutely would get again. The chicken curry roti was great too - tender white meat chicken in a savory stewed curry sauce with some more of those yummy marinated veggies. It was delicious but wasn't a typical curry flavor that you get in the area - definitely unique and authentic to the Caribbean style of dishes. It's a bit more spicy than I'm used to but I loved it. My only complaint was the texture of the roti bread - again it wasn't the style you typically see out here in SoCal. It was more coarse and very flaky - almost like a thick homemade tortilla as opposed to a pita style bread. It had a nice flavor overall but I wasn't a fan of the texture. But that's totally a personal preference and I would absolutely get the curry again - but I'd get it with the rice plate and I think that would be perfect.  A very friendly man eating next to me while I waited had a delectable looking dish as well - he said it was their saturday special of chicken stew and it looked AMAZING! He said it was his favorite dish here and goes out of his way to come get it. So I'll definitely be seeking that out next time I visit! The staff were insanely friendly - so warm and welcoming and excited to help me pick out my first dishes to try. Chef Yonette Alleyne originally hails from Guyana and she started this delicious restaurant as a pop up - her cooking is incredible and authentic and something everyone should have on their LA must try list! She has now made Blossom Market Hall her home - and Caribbean Gourmet is definitely a star in the food hall lineup here. Order at the counter and they'll give you a buzzer. The vibe in the market hall is lively and inviting - with lots of seating options and promising dessert choices once you've finished your dinner. You'll find Caribbean Gourmet right inside the main entrance and there's plenty of free parking on site. Prices are decent considering the quality and the portions are massive. Can't wait to come back and try the specials and pastries!! read more

Tip: Food takes around 30-40 mins. So I placed a phone order to go so that wait time would be reduced. Parking: Dedicated parking lot for the food market hall. Tables: There is a shared cafeteria communal space throughout the food hall. Jerk Chicken Plate: Personally, I loved the jerked chicken plate out of everything that was ordered. They really packed a big portion chicken breast and chicken leg in the plate. It was also paired well with savory chick pea flavored coconut rice. Pan-fried plantains were sooo good. I liked that the plantains weren't heavily sweetened with sugar, and there was a good amount of moisture to the plantains. Jerk chicken pattie: Reminds me of a Vietnamese puff pastry stuffed with flavorful chicken. Good but not surprising. Chicken curry + Rotti: Rotti was similar to Indian naan, where you stuff the rotti with chicken curry and peas. Chicken curry was soft and flavorful. Chick peas were surprisingly spicy, packed with herbs and spice. read more

My husband bought the SGV passport as a Christmas present and Caribbean Gourmet was one of the vendors listed. We came here after visiting Yama Sushi Market. On the passport, it was buy 1 or 2 meat pies, get 1 or 2 for free. We got the 1 for 1, but should've used the 2 for 2. I ordered the chicken and my husband got the beef. The protein was packed in a thin and flaky casing. There was so much meat in comparison to the breading. It did not disappoint. The chicken was well cooked and seasoned. They also offered hot sauce to go with it. Don't be generous when you dip into it because that was spicy. It had a bit of a tang which made me want more, but only very little at a time. I would like to come back here and try out their other dishes. We ran into another yelper coincidentally on our visit. I believe she bought the Chicken Curry, and wow that looked and smelled divine. We can't wait to come back. This establishment is located in the Blossom Market Hall in SGV. The menu and hours are on display on their countertop, as well as deserts and a small refrigerator with drinks. There is a lot of foot traffic so it can feel a bit tight in that food hall. There are benches and high top seating available for guests. read more

Friendly staff, and amazing food. I've tried three things here and will say that hands down the Ox Tail Stew is a must try. You will not regret it, the meat is so tender it falls off the bone. Very flavorful and rich. The Jerked Salmon and Jerked Chicken is good too, but the Ox Tail is on another level. Price is fair, not cheap, and you'll definitely get what you pay for. read more

Caribbean Gourmet (CG) is located in the Blossom Market Hall (BMH) in San Gabriel. The hall has a large parking lot and is in a converted mission. There's even a large stage for live performances! CG is one of the many unique food stalls in the hall and has interior picnic table, bar type, and counter type seating. BMH has beautiful iconic Mission white plaster walls, wood beams, and a large wood performance stage. A beautiful casual community venue in San Gabriel. As for food, I received an Oxtail Stew recommendation from a pickleballer at nearby Smith Park so I had to try. She was spot on. The order comes with Oxtail Stew, around 5 pieces, fried plantain, sautéed rice, and a cabbage side. The Oxtail was very good: Meat was moist and fall off or suck off the bone goodness. You will get your hands dirty ... you don't want to waste your money by not getting every bit of meat and cartilage off of the oxtail pieces! Very tasty and the Oxtail Stew is the most expensive item on CG's menu. Oxtail like Short Rib has become a pricy protein. Quick service, order and pay at the counter, call your name, pick up, find a spot to eat and eat! Ask for a cup of ice for water. Water dispenser is located to the right of the stage. read more

This is in the Blossom Market Hall. I frequent several of the resturants here and I was told by several friends that it's the best Jerk Chicken place, though I'm not sure how many Jerk Chicken places there are. So I wanted to try the Jerk Chicken. It was burnt but the inside was luke warm. I'm not sure that's how it's supposed to be, but wasn't my thing. The spices were good but I'm not about charcol on my chicken. I'll just get a nice rostisser somewhere else. The workers were nice and the shop is like all the others, orderwhile your friends hold down a table and switch lol, and then wait for your food The size of the food was pretty good, but maybe it's just not for me. read more

Absolutely delicious! Fantastic oxtail soup and jerk salmon! Came for lunch with the husband and kiddo and had a blast. The food was an absolute delight. Fall off the bone oxtail, delicious rice, and the perfect Plantains. The jerk salmon was also a treat. Usually a daily special, we were lucky enough to snag one of the last 3 pieces. Juicy and delicious salmon and omg, the jerk spices were amazing. Just the right amount of spice and good favor. Blossom market is all the better with this gem! read more

Located in the back of Blossom market! There's a door from the parking lot. Easy in and out. I think this is my first time eating Jerk chicken. I am not sure what kind of food but someone mentioned that this is Guyanese food. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I have a SGV passport and Caribbean Gourmet is one of the listings for their Patties. I got every one of them. (Buy 2 get 2 for free!) Every food flavor is bomb. I don't even like flavored rice, especially sweet flavored rice but their rice has a bit of coconut flavor and ITS GOOD!!!The chicken is very well seasoned and juicy. It compliments the rice and cabbage. Not a huge fan of plantains but I didn't hate theirs. The service was pretty quick. Arrival time of 12:45 and left at 1:00 for to go. If you want to dine in there's a high table and chair in front of the restaurant or other common area or outside. read more

Located inside Blossom Market. You order at the counter and find a seat anywhere. We opted to sit on the booth right in front of Caribbean Gourmet. It wasn't busy since I met up with a friend middle of the week. They brought out our food when it ready and it didn't take long to come out. I went with the Jerk Chicken Plate, which came with a grilled chicken (leg/thigh), coconut rice with beans, a sauteed cabbage side, and plantains. When it initially came out, the container was heavy! There was definitely going to be leftovers. They chicken was seasoned nicely. It had a bit of a kick to it. If you're not used to spice, this could definitely be spicy for you. The rice was beautifully fragrant and delicious. The plantains lasted all 2 seconds because I devoured those first. The sauteed cabbage and veggies were ok too. All together, it was a nice filling meal, and everything went well together. I would order this again for sure. My friend ordered the oxtail stew, which was braised oxtail and the same sides (coconut rice, sauteed cabbage, and plantains). She really enjoyed her dish as well. I didn't get a taste but she said she'd definitely recommend it and for the price, it was definitely worth it. We also got a Sorrel, a jamaica drink. It wasn't what I was expecting but it was delicious. It taste like Christmas? It had flavors of cinnamon, ginger, maybe nutmeg? I don't know but it was comforting. Everything was great, from the service to the food. Definitely worth checking out. read more

We came here on a Sunday around lunch time. There were plenty of tables open in the food hall, lots of parking outside too. It was raining a bit so maybe that's why it wasn't too crowded. It was my first time coming to this food hall. I like that if you come here with friends, there's something for everyone. I ordered a jerk chicken and a beef patty. My friend also got the jerk chicken and other friends got food from other stands. Food was good, chicken was well seasoned and juicy. Plantains were nice. They gave generous portions. I turned this into two meals. Beef patty was delicious as well, my first time having it. Would definitely recommend you check them out! read more

We dropped by the Blossom Market Hall while driving through San Gabriel. Lots of parking outside and a good mix of restaurants inside. We had Jamaican food on our minds so we chose Caribbean Gourmet. We were quickly greeted and cashier was quite outgoing and friendly. The menu offerings were oxtail, jerk chicken, curries and meat pies. We read a lot about the oxtail so that was our first choice. Kitchen was visible and everyone was quite busy but our order came out quickly. Jerk chicken and oxtails plates were quite generous and meaty but oxtails were the best and most flavorful. I wish they also gave out some of extra marinade as it was so tasty. Each plate came with lots of rice and good to have a side of cabbage. The plantains were sweet but would've been a little better if carmelized a bit. A repeat next time we're in the area again. read more

The food hall itself is spacious and full of diversity and delicious cuisines from around the world. Today I got to try Caribbean Gourmet. I ordered the jerk chicken and chicken curry (w/roti). The jerk chicken was seasoned heavily and fall off the bone tender. The fried plantain gave the dish a little "sweet balance" to the meal. The chicken curry was decent, the roti for sure helped soaked in the curry juices. But I finished my roti halfway through so I had nothing to help ease in the chicken curry flavor/spices. Next time I would probably get the chicken curry with the rice and ask for a roti on the side. Nonetheless, the meal was perfect and I can't wait to come back to try the oxtail plate. read more

A Little Piece of Heaven on a Sunday On Sundays, you just want a little piece of heaven. It's the day before the work week begins, and when the sun is shining, the weather's perfect, and everyone seems to be on the same vibration, it feels like everything aligns. We found ourselves in San Gabriel at Blossom Market, where I stumbled upon a familiar name, but for me, a first-time experience, Caribbean Gourmet. I was immediately intrigued, especially when I noticed a panel of Caribbean flags proudly displayed. Seeing my very own among them made me feel not just inspired, but welcomed. As someone who isn't a native of Los Angeles, any time I see something or someone that reminds me of home, of island people, it fills me with warmth. You feel connected, you feel loved, you feel family. And that's exactly how I felt the moment I approached Caribbean Gourmet. From the start, I was beyond welcomed and cared for. As I began asking questions, the team offered me samples, one of oxtail, the other of curry chicken, each with a little rice. When I tell you, I didn't even have a big appetite, but I could have eaten a full plate of both. The oxtail was smooth and tender, falling right off the bone. It was spicy, but in a way that took you on a journey, inviting you in gently before leading you to a deeper, richer heat. Every bite was comforting and flavorful, settling into a spice that lingered beautifully. The curry chicken was equally balanced, juicy, well-marinated, and bursting with warmth. After my samples, I was absolutely full, but I had to support this business. So I ordered a chicken patty, and when I tell you, a tear came down my face with that first bite, I mean it. The crust was perfection, flaky, buttery, almost dessert-like, and the filling was deeply seasoned, tasting as though it had been marinated for hours, maybe even days. It was packed with flavor, hearty, and beyond satisfying. It's now almost 4 o'clock, and I know I won't be eating dinner. Not because I'm not hungry, but because I'm so fulfilled, by the food, by the care, by the love that was poured into every bite. In my usual fashion of gratitude, I had to say thank you. I wanted to meet the person behind the magic. When I returned to Caribbean Gourmet, I saw a woman speaking with someone and couldn't help but interrupt to ask if she was the cook. She smiled, it was Yonette Alleyne, the owner herself. What an angel. Her hands aren't just meant for cooking, they're meant for sharing love and light through food. Speaking with her felt like being embraced by family. She made my Sunday. I cannot wait to return, to connect with Yonette again, and to share the beautiful and delicious experience I had at Caribbean Gourmet. read more

Came here on a Saturday around 12:30pm and it wasn't too bad of a crowd. There is dedicated parking at the playhouse. The communal dining area is very cozy and this food hall is much smaller than others. I've been wanting to try authentic Caribbean food and I'm so glad Caribbean Gourmet is close (no need to go to LA). I ordered the Oxtail Plate and a Turkey Meat Pie. My food took about 10-15 minutes as it wasn't too busy when I was there. The service: it was clear that the kitchen crew was prepping, but they noticed me almost immediately and took my order. They were attentive and answered any questions I had. Food was ready fairly quick (as I expected longer because of the stew). 10/10 Oxtail Plate: not as spicy as I thought, but I'm sure we would be able to request spicier. The oxtail practically fell off the bone and was extremely tender and flavorful. The coconut rice was really strong in coconut flavor which compliments the oxtail stew. The plate also comes with boiled shredded cabbage and plantains which was very good. 9/10 Turkey Meat Pie: Crispy, flakey, and seasoned to perfection. Nothing else to add. 10/10 I would definitely come back and try other items they have (especially meat pies). read more

I've had them twice for work gatherings and the food is always a hit! Jerk chicken is tender on the inside, spicy skin on the outside. The coconut rice and peas are delicious as is the veg curry and also the cabbage.

Caribbean Gourmet is inside the Blossom Market Hall, which is a beautiful and eclectic curation of food vendors in a restored Masonic Lodge. Visiting Chef Yonette Alleyne's spot has been a desire for a while now, and I can't believe I waited this long. I was truly being deprived of some of the best food I have ever had. My husband and I came in today and shared the Oxtail Stew plate and the Jerk Chicken plate. Each plate comes with rice and peas, veggies, and plantains and the portion sizes are very generous. There truly is not a single complaint. Both plates were piping hot perfection. The Oxtail was tender and falling off the bone. The chicken was juicy and had the most delicious spice. Often times, I feel like rice on a plate can be a filler, but as a stand-alone item, the rice and peas were divine. The rice was fluffy and flavorful. Both of the plates were the ultimate comfort food. We got to speaking to some other patrons next to us who hadn't tried what we had, but they also spoke the praises of the curry and the beef patties. You know the food is good when it brings strangers together and fosters connection in a world that often promotes disconnection. I was really hoping to get to chat with Chef Yonette, but we unknowingly visited on the weekend of the Lantern festival, so it was a very busy time. I will be frequenting Caribbean Gourmet often for certain. read more

Got the bbq chicken special $18 and it was very juicy chicken that came with mac & cheese and potato salad (in a separate cup). I appreciated how the bbq sauce was the right amount and not overly sweet. Nevertheless, the highlight this time was actually the vegetable patty $5. It was very flavorful and had a unique herb taste to it (was it celery? What's the secret???) Anyhow, it just made everything taste great and totally worth the same price as the meat patties. Pro tip: I highly recommend getting the oxtail if you haven't tried. Still my top menu item from here. read more

I LOVE the oxtail stew here. Blossom Market Hall has a handful of solid food options, but truthfully... I only ever come here for Caribbean Gourmet. And I always get the oxtail. It's hot, flavorful, fresh, and the meat is melt-off-the-bone tender. It comes with seasoned rice and sweet plantains, the perfect pairings. The chicken curry with roti is another go-to of mine. It's packed with spices and flavor, but not actually spicy heat-wise. The roti is soft, flaky, and so good dipped into the curry. If you're at Blossom, don't sleep on this place - it's easily the best spot in this food hall. read more

Caribbean Gourmet - Curry & Oxtail - Caribbean Near Me - San Gabriel, California

As part of the Blossom Market Hall, we really wanted to try their curry dishes. We ordered the chicken curry and Roti, we also asked the staff if any curry might be spicy (since it's really hot today and I'm not good with spicy). The curry isn't spicy but with all the spices they use, it'll come with a nice kick, but not that spicy. They also have pastries and patties which they display at the counter, they look delicious and might try those another time. Our dish took some time but when we got our meal it was hot! It smelled amazing and you can smell the spices. The roti was wrapped in foil and the curry also came with chickpeas. I enjoyed the flavors and just as they said it had a nice kick of spice and not too spicy. The roti was soft and chewy, soaked or dipped in the curry sauce was great. I wondered whether they offer options to order extra rice/peas in addition to the meal set with roti. I felt like the curry would taste amazing with both sides. Overall, it was delicious. I'm interested in the oxtail stew and might try that next time! read more

First time eating at Caribbean Gourmet. Ordered the $24 Oxtail Plate & $5 Beef Meat Patty. Asked for side of their hot sauce. Took to go dripped sauce into paper bag had to ask for a plastic bag. Took home to enjoy and it easily fed two grownups. Oxtail was flavorful, tender good portion. Side of cooked cabbage rice and plantains. Meat Patty beef was moist, nice curry seasoning, plentiful meat filling and crust was moist not dry. Added the hot sauce and i could just eat this! It's that good...i want to try the other 3 flavors. Spoke with who i think was owner she told me they will feature new flavor patties in the future. Order online if u can i ordered there in person on a Sunday afternoon and the wait was about 15 min.

Caribbean Gourmet - Oxtail stew plate - Caribbean Near Me - San Gabriel, California

Came here to try the ox tail dish- man it was so soft and tender! The meat was falling off the bone when you picked up the bone- juicy and flavorful for sure! The last time I came I was hesitant to try, but after seeing so many people at their tables with the ox tail plat, I had to try it. It was so good. At first it kind of reminded me of Filipino pork adobo bc of the dark sauce and savory flavor, but the more you eat it the more you start to notice the hints of spices within the sauces and juices. I also tried the passion guava juice- so good, made in store, and with pulp. It's like the healthier version of kerns lol. It was so filling I couldn't finish the whole plate of veggies, rice, and plantains in the dish. It was very good and well made.

Food was delicious and portions were good value. We got the oxtail stew and vegan curry with roti. The meat from the oxtail stew was super tender and fell off the bone. The flavor from the vegan curry was also SO yummy. I deducted a star because I didn't get a buzzer after ordering to dine in, which would have made it more convenient to know when my order was ready instead of lingering in the area or walking back and forth from my seat. It's in a food hall so I didn't want to lose our table. read more
