The food here really lacks in flavor - it's like they are afraid of seasoning. I came here bc Bake & Things was closed. This place does have customer seating. read more

I'll be back very soon! Coming for that oxtail and more stew chicken OMGGG AND OF COURSE ThE CURRY GOAT! read more

I've been coming to this restaurant for over 20 years. I remember coming here even as a vegetarian to get the rice and peas with steam veggies. They are absolutely delicious. Fast forward twenty some year, and it's still just as good as it was back then. This time I ordered the oxtail as I know. Eat meat from time to time. The plate was so heavy. I could barely open it without spilling. The flavor was good and of course the sides were amazing. Only issue was there wasn't any gravy on the rice at all. I think a lot of people get oxtail gravy on their food regardless, if they purchase oxtail or not. My suggestion? Come early and you'll likely get gravy, I'll be back as usual, maybe next time.I have curry chicken. read more

Not as good as Exquisite Express on Church Avenue. The food was mediocre. Oxtail was tough. The service was reliably rude in spite of the food being priced well above fast food prices. Two dinner items with no drinks came to $50.00. Apparently, if you don't speak with a Carribean accent, the servers can't really understand you. And asking for anything extra like jerk sauceor hot sauce was an inconvenience to them. Speaking of sauce, I expect better than store-bought jerk sauce from the Exquisite brand. I'm never returning unless the Church Avenue Exquisite Express is reopened. read more

I love the food here spice level is just right. Service is always great very nice people and fast service. The vibe is nice with the music playing while you wait to be served on. read more

Pretty good I will say and reasonable prices. There is almost always a line, which is good. They also have a wide variety to chose from and a few things you don't usually see in all Jamaican restaurants in the states. read more

Walked into this restaurant by accident my wife wanted some West Indian food to "go". Wifey wanted something like curry or jerk chicken or a Roti maybe baked with codfish or curry chicken but to my surprise, they didn't serve that. This cuisine was of Haitian flavor, they did have chicken steamed, turkey in a brown gravy goat, a dinner special of steamed chicken rice and beans with a side salad and fried plantains, with a side order of goat. The food was fresh, I will go back and update my review soon read more

The jerk chicken is phenomenal! Portions are also very good and they have lots of options

This place is a staple in the Caribbean Community. Definitely an old school, come over for dinner to my home type of feel. Signature Comfort Food. The food is fresh, seasoned to perfection and is just delicious everytime I've gotten food from there. Keep serving our Community with Love! Blessings read more

One of my friends introduced me to come here because I was craving authentic Caribbean food and I wasn't disappointed. To be honest, I came here looking for oxtail but unfortunately I came too late and they ran out for the day so you better go early if you're adamant on oxtail. I settled for the curried goat and it was still super delicious. My friends got the jerk chicken and they really enjoyed it too. Will def be back again to try the oxtail! read more

Delicious food! One of my go to spots in the area, and there are quite a few good restaurants to choose from. Portions are substantial, quality consistent, and the flavor is not lacking. I've yet to work my way through the entire menu as some of the items are so delicious I have to get them again. Even the juices are full of flavor. They make them onsite. The lemonade has a strong ginger flavor which I enjoy (watered down). Whenever I stop by there is a bit of a line that moves pretty quick. The only minor struggle is that there seems to be rather loud ambient noise so when I call out my order over the tall window I have to repeat a few times for the other person to hear me. Not a big deal but something to keep in mind for the soft spoken short peeps. There's some tables and seats to eat there. When the weather is nice outside they have an outside patio area, it's a nice spot to catch the sunset. read more

I like the ambiance. The food looks exquisite! Although good, I've had better. But that does not mean you can't stop by! The food is ample for the price. So the value is good. I had the curry goat. It was tasty, but again, I've had better. read more

I love this place. The food is sooo good and been consistent for years. Every time I'm in BK by the junction, I have to stop here. I especially love the selfish and okra bake and the mac and cheese and BBQ chicken. Check them out!! read more

This place is the absolute bomb-diggity! Food so good, it's like it's tap dancing on your taste buds, doing Michael Jackson moonwalks and shit. I'm not even kidding. If you're looking for legitimately good Caribbean food with awesome music playing from the speakers as you walk in, this is the place. Not the classiest of places but there are some tables and seats but it's usually the type of thing you want to take home and enjoy. I've taken white friends here, who now love the Caribbean taste. I've taken black family here, that now loves the Caribbean taste. I've taken Asians here, that now love the Caribbean taste. If you come here, YOU will love the Caribbean taste! BUP! read more

Me and my boyfriend ate here earlier this week. I had the curry chicken with cabbage and rice and beans. I thought it was pretty good, not the best, but pretty good. My boyfriend had jerk chicken with the same sides. His chicken was dry despite the fact that sauce was added to it from another dish. The service was okay the lady working wasn't too personable as she often focused on the crying child in the restaurant. This place is okay but not a must have in my opinion. read more

Oh, Exquisite Supreme, you'll be the death of me. I grew up (and still live) in a predominantly Caribbean neighborhood, and I've been lucky to experience what good Caribbean food should taste like. I've had my share of oxtail -- thanks to my Jamaican mothers (two neighbors who "adopted" me). Exquisite Supreme's oxtail: It's not swimming in grease, and it's packed with boatloads of flavor; that's how you want oxtail to be, and how restaurants should make it. read more

I've been going to this place for a few years and after yesterday which will be the last time I go there, I felt compelled to write a review. I ordered a medium sized jerk chicken (only chicken) for $10!!! That's a $2 hike from the $8!!! I could get an entire meal for alot less at their nearby competitors. All in all, the chicken is really fried not jerk unless you ask for jerk sauce which I always get on the side. It isn't falling off the bone like most jerk chicken and has no flavor. It's very tough/dry. Customer service has never been great and no matter how often you go there, don't expect to be treated like a regular. No greeting and no "thank you" . For a restaurant with so many competitors nearby, they really need to step their game up because tge lines aren't as long as they use to be. read more

I would have given this place 5 stars prior to my last experience. This was always my go to spot for jerk chicken and the best Mac and cheese ever. When I was working in Brooklyn and my primary residence was in Manhattan I was reliant on the MTA. I would take a bus to get there which cost me about 40 minutes of additional travel time. When I came to primarily reside in Queens, I would drive to Brooklyn for no other reason but to get this chicken and mac and cheese. However, my last experience might well be the last time I patronize this restaurant. The chicken was bone dry. The texture alone was at best off putting. What made it inedible was the toxic level of hot pepper. When I got home and opened the bag, everyone's eyes began to tear. It was like pepper spray. Truly harmful and unforgivable. I give three stars (passable) only for the memories of better experiences. read more

I ordered the curry chicken, rice and peas and steam veggies. It was pretty good. Was it the best I've ever had ? no but it's decent. I'm lowering my review because they don't take cards and aren't on seamless. Also the location sucks! No Parking. read more

Exquisite Supreme - Curry chicken, rice and beans, steam veggies - Caribbean Near Me - East Flatbush, New York

Maybe I just drank the Kool-Aid the day I ate it but so far this is the best Caribbean food I've had in the junction. Got a jerk chicken and rice for $10. Wolfed it down as soon as I got back to my room. Delicious. Might like it less on the second try who knows. I'll be eating here again to make sure. read more

I have come to Esquisite several times in the past and the food has been pretty good. To my dismay, the last order of beef was awful. The plate consisted of mostly very large bones, fat and a "bare" amount of meat. A side order of mac and cheese was anything but. The top was a very bland, thin layer of "tasteless" cheese (I think American cheese - cheeder cheese is usually used in most recipes which provides flavor). The bottom was lacking "any" cheese and looked like bare mac that was taken right from the pot without any addition of cheese, milk, flovoring, etc. It wasn't even slightly that yellow/orange color you see mac and cheese.....just the color pasta is after you've just boiled it! I would add, this experience was highly unusual for this restaurant in my experience. The food purchased in the past has been good. They need to work on the beef, preferably some with meat on the bones (or how about boneless) and the mac and cheese. I will.try them again but will definitely try something different as I know they can do better. read more

Food is way overpriced.!! Customer service needs improvement. Won't be dining here again

The food is always great!! But they have the worst customer service I've ever seen in my life! No one asks , " may I help you?" Nor do they tell you the total of your bill! And the defiantly don't say, " thank you for coming." I said, " you're welcome" and the woman replied, " okay!" They're just rude for no damn reason! read more

The food is ok however the cashier's attitude turned me off and they are very expensive.

The food is good, not excellent, but enjoyable. The atmosphere is polluted by 2 loud-mouth men engaged in a silly discussion for 30 minutes. In addition the radio is blasting music which makes this unbearable. I will not eat here again. read more

My husband says this place is the bomb dot com, he's Trini so this is home cooking for him. He loves the baked BBQ chicken, macaroni pie, curry chicken and chow mein read more

Jerk chicken not very tasty and tasted like it had been cooked an hour before. Staff were nice, especially compared to other local venues like Fisherman's Cove, where the customer services is ridiculously bad. read more

When my boyfriend stopped at this place and my first meal was the curry chicken, rice & peas with oxtail gravy and sweet plantains. I fell in love. Now that I leave just around the corner. I promised myself that I would treat myself, twice a month. This food is just too damn good, if your not careful you'll put on weight! Not only do they sell carribbean food, their chicken Alfredo is deliciously savary! The garlicy creamy sauce has load of veggies. It's a meal. Trust me when I say this, you can't go wrong with any dish you select. It's just soooooo damn good. read more

I love their porridge, its creamy, sweet, and very traditional. I have also had bakes and a few other items. The food tastes like delicious, authentic Caribbean cuisine, along with a bit of Caribbean attitude. They are generally not very friendly although on my last visit the lady was very polite with a hint of a smile. Yes, I would return because the food is great and I'm not there to make friends, but keep in mind they are not like most New York Eateries, you do not generally get service with a smile. read more

Good Caribbean food. The service is kinda slow, but the food is worth it! The goat curry was really really good, and I liked the spinach they had. Bake&Things is a bit better, but this place is close! Have to go back to try their other options too. read more

I've ordered food from here a few times and it's okay. I haven't been wowed as compared to some other Caribbean spots I have visited.

Delicious Jerk chicken! They have a couple of tables, but it's mainly a take-out restaurant with quick, friendly service, nice sized portions, and reasonably priced. read more

This is the best West Indian restaurant I've eaten from in a long time. The food is excellent. The service is fantastic and they are CLEAN.

The food is alright. I ordered a dinner and they didn't include the plantain that was supposed to come with. I normally frequent the Church ave location as they have me in and out. This particular location took their SWEEEEEEEET TIME. Just ridiculous. I spent almost 25 minutes in here just trying to order. Just off the time spent trying to order, I will never come back to this location. I'll go with what I know works. read more

Consistent jerk chicken. The staff has to provide faster service and it doesn't hurt to smile a bit more.

I'll give them 4 stars...it would've been five stars but the representative you have there by the name of sue is the WORST! Attitude stinks, customer service is horrible and she runs the place like its a fish market. Everyone else there is perfect. I love them all but she has to go. I would rather a ram goat serve me before her. Superb food and environment. read more
