    The food was good, but be prepared to WAIT! I called to order and was told 15 minutes. I know how it goes, so I arrived about 30 minutes later. I arrived and paid for my food and still had to wait an additional 20 minutes! I used to order quite a bit but took a break after many experiences with bad customer service. The customer service was fine, but waiting almost an hour for a call in order was a bit crazy.

    Never again! Waste on time and money. The food was bland. No flavor at all; the meat, the rice and the cabbage weren't good. Best part of my dish was the plantains. & if you're looking for butter beans with your oxtail, don't count on it; only 3 came with my platter!

    This was my first time trying Jamaican food in Maryland. I started with the Chicken soup: Very flavorful and hearty. Entree: Oxtails with cabbage and rice and pea, plantain's. The oxtail were very tender and spicy I must say I can tell scotch bonnet was heavy. I love spicy food so I didn't mind. Jerk Chicken, rice and pea, cabbage and plantains: the chicken was grilled which was a plus and the sauce was very good not spicy at all. Drinks: Pineapple/Ginger: this drink was made with way too much ginger as soon as I took a sip the ginger was so spicy that it overpowered the pineapple.

    I was in the mood for some Caribbean food and decided to give Island Quizine a try. I ordered my food via DoorDash. I ordered oxtails with butter beans and it came with a side of rice and beans , cabbage and two sweet plantains. The oxtails were tender and seasoned to perfection. I feel like the gravy had a hint of spice to it. I'm not a fan of spicy food at all but it was so good I pushed through. The rice and veggies were flavorful as well. I didn't care too much for the plantains sadly. They were super dry. They forgot to put utensils and napkins in the bag which was a bit disappointing. I was in the middle of moving so getting to my utensils was a bit challenging at the time. The food sat for a good 30 mins before I could get to it. I will say the food was still hot despite the delay and the flavor made up for the missing utensils. Overall a good choice and I would order again. Just make sure if you order takeout you ensure they send utensils.

    Kingfish, Rice and Peas, Cabbage and Plantains (Kingfish Chefs Way)
    Queen R.

    My husband and I came here came here on July 6, 2024. We both ordered the Kingfish (Brown) it came with Rice and Peas, Cabbage and Plantain. The fish is a thick Kingfish Steak in an a brown sauce, not a whole fish like we're use too. It has peppers and carrots on it too. The cabbage, rice and peas are both scarcely seasoned so that you can mix it with the sauce and the flavor won't clash. The only problem was the it was a lot of Rice and Peas. The fish was cooked perfect and wasn't dry. We also ordered Chicken Patties and Macaroni and Cheese. The patties weren't overly spicy and the flavors were on point. While the Mac and Cheese was some of the best I've had and was super cheesy. Everyone was friendly and made sure we ordered exactly what we wanted. It took about 25-30 minutes for our meal because it was done Chefs Way. Overall it was Jamaican food. There was not too much that made it stand out. We probably won't get the Kingfish again but, intend to come back for the Sakon and trying the other menu items. Oh! The portions are big enough you can save some for later. We were very full and didn't even finish everything. The atmosphere was welcoming, it wasn't too dark or too bright. It was extra clean and the smell of good food filled the air. They have a huge section of food to choose from and we will be back to try more.

    Came here to pick up something for Father's Day. I chose the brown stewed chicken and for hubby the chicken trio. The meals come with plantains, rice and beans, and cabbage.

I have been looking for an authentic Ghanaian restaurant in Baltimore for years and have finally found it. The service is amazing, the owners son is always accommodating and friendly when he answers the phone and always pleasantly greets me when I walk in. Although I'd love to be able to eat here, I'd probably need a wheel barrow to leave so account for this being a to go experience with you favorite pillow and blanket nearby for the nap you'll need. I've been here several times before writing this review because it really felt like I was going to pick up food from aunties house and forgot, WHOOPS. I always get the same thing but my husband has ventured to the Caribbean menu and has gotten oxtails the size of his palm, twice- going above and beyond is clearly they're M O. The goat is always so perfectly cooked, flavorful and more than enough to last the whole meal. They really add a new meaning to Baltimore eating for me and I'm so grateful! I always recommend calling to place your order to ensure it's available because stuff sells out due to its amazingness!

Kudos to the owner for being such a delight! I ordered jollof rice with chicken and a beef patty (of course). Both were excellent but I have to shower the jollof rice with praise. As a Nigerian American, the struggle to find good jollof is real. I have to say that this Ghanian style jollof was quite good. I won't get into a whole thing about which country has the best jollof but I enjoyed this iteration quite a bit. I highly recommend checking out KSB when you're near Parkville.

In my opinion, finding good Jamaican food in the area has been a challenge. Often too sweet and not packing enough flavor. But Diasporan Soul has put that opinion to bed. When you walk into Diasporan Soul they have a very nice Afro-centric dining area as well as a sort of apothecary selection for patrons to browse and buy when the dining room is open. However, the night I stopped by they seemed to be doing only carry out, which you order in the back of the restaurant. My go-to order is always jerk chicken with cabbage, rice & peas, and a beef patty. And Diasporan Soul did not disappoint. The jerk chicken was smoky, seasoned well, and fall off the bone tender. However, next time I'll ask to have my chicken topped with some sauce because that would've definitely taken it over the top. The cabbage was buttery and cooked perfectly and the rice was delicious. The beef patty was actually one of the better beef patties I've had here in the area, with a decent amount of filling. If you're in the area or looking for a new Jamaican restaurant to try, then you have to give Diasporan Soul a try. The service was pleasant, and the food was delicious and plentiful. I can't wait for my next visit.
