The steamed cabbage had no seasoning or flavor. The red beans and rice was extra dry. Then we got jerk sauce to go on top and it was sweet. I never had sweet jerk sauce before. I had left an interesting taste. To top it off, the service was bad. We place two separate orders. She couldn't get the order right. No matter how you explained it to her, she just didn't get it. Will I return? No! It's not worth my money, time, or energy.

My first visit here, it's been on my list since the carribean spot near me in Richmond closed down…read more Food: Love, love the peppery/spicy seasoning on the curry chicken & cabbage. Gotta admit the spiciness had my tongue tingling & my nose running but it wasn't overpoweringly spicy. Btw. I didn't request spicy, that's just how it came. Cabbage and rice & peas were tasty, standard accompaniments. My hubby got the curry goat and it too was very tasty but what got my attention was how tender the goat was! To me, the goat seemed just a little less spicy so the chicken spice level may be just how they cooked the batch that day. Upon entering, I thought it was just a takeout place because I didn't see any tables or seating. While waiting on my food, I discovered a whole other large room with seating, full bar & stage! So takeout or dine-in is definitely an option. It's a little bit of a drive for me but I would definitely return.

My first time here, in the area for work…read more Ambiance: very busy my preorder was ready to go upon arrival. They have a large space on the other side where you can eat they do not take orders appear like. My order, the chicken was definitely more spicier than another place that I typically eat at. They do give you a side of gravy. The plantains were slightly dry and I wished I had more cabbage. I heard that they have a rum punch that is really good. I would Give them another try maybe trying something else.

I love Jamaican food and have been looking for a spot that is not only affordable but also has…read moregood, authentic Jamaican food on the north side. I decided to go here, and I was not disappointed! I ordered my food to go and waited only about 5 minutes. The establishment is pretty small, with a small bar area. I ended up ordering a large Curry Chicken and a side of Jerk Chicken. It definitely reminded me of when I was back in Jamaica! The spice level is perfect, and the portion size is nice! I actually had enough food to last me a couple of days. The only suggestion I would give is that I wish there was more curry sauce on my rice. If I would've asked, I'm sure it would've been no problem! Next time, I definitely want to try the oxtails! Highly recommend!

I went to Taste of the Caribbean and this is an easy 5 stars…read more This place is the real deal when it comes to Caribbean food. You can tell right away it's authentic--everything from the curry chicken to the oxtail and roti is packed with flavor. It's not watered down for the masses, it tastes like somebody in the kitchen actually knows what they're doing. They've got that Trinidad influence too, which I appreciate. You don't see that everywhere. Stuff like doubles and buss up shut on the menu is a big deal if you know what you're looking at. Portions are solid, food comes out fresh, and overall it just hits. It's one of those spots where you keep thinking about the food after you leave. If you want real Caribbean flavor in Houston, this is one of the places you need to try.

The Mac & Cheese taste sooooo good!! Not crazy creamy but still very good. the chicken has thee perfect amount of kick and a small hint of sweet. Fried plantain is always good in my opinion. The chicken patty was also good, has more spice that's for sure but tolerable. The customer service is friendly, as we ate our food they brought over some water. Not because we asked but because it came to them naturally. I loved that!! There's plenty of seating in and outside. Music playin but not to loud!

I really wanted to give a 5 star review but this was not a hit but more of a miss. Drove 30 mins to…read morethis restaurant in the rain because I felt for some Jamaican food. However I was disappointed when I got home and started eating. First off, it's a nice set up inside, not a lot of seating but it's good, some side chairs and also some high chairs and tables. Service was great, friendly staff. I ordered curry goat white rice and plantains, didn't want the steam veg because not all restaurants do it right. I was still offered the steam cabbage on the side with server asking me what was their name and responding "it's great that's why they are called "gud food kitchen" I also got some beef patties which I had there while waiting, they were not bad. My husband got oxtail with rice and peas. When we got home and started eating I was disappointed. Curry goat was just spicy not much more flavor and the oxtail was tasting like a lot of sugar was added wasn't authentic, also no beans in Jamaican oxtail? It needed more seasoning to me. Plantains and rice were good that's all I really enjoyed. Cabbage was not done properly as it was lacking flavor and very chewy. I also didn't like that I couldn't get fried chicken, which was only done if we wanted them to cater. If I do go back it'll have to be some drastic recipe adjustments. Also the owner kept going around asking for reviews on Google, so here is my yelp review of Gud food kitchen.

The food is delicious - I've been 6 times for sure, maybe more. This is one of the places I bring…read morepeople who are visiting Houston or have never had Jamaican food. On this particular visit, I got the jerk shrimp, very spicy but delicious. My dad got the goat curry and he really liked it. The cabbage/vegetables are always seasoned so well. The entire plate is good. The atmosphere makes me feel like I'm in Jamaica. I've met the owner on a few of my visits, seems like a great person who values customer service.

I have always loved the beef patties at Reggae Hut Café, which is why this experience was so…read moredisappointing. The patties just don't taste the same anymore it was very dry and not freshly made. The filling now tastes more like regular ground beef instead of the flavorful, well-seasoned Caribbean-style beef patty I remember and enjoyed. The price has also increased to $5.50, while the amount of meat inside the patty has noticeably decreased. As you can see from the photos, there is a lot of crust with very little filling. I understand that prices go up, but when the price increases, I expect the quality and portion to at least remain the same or increase. Unfortunately, that was not my experience. Although I have loved these patties for years, based on the change in flavor, smaller amount of filling, and higher price, I will not be returning.

A visit is absolute gem of a spot years ago with my dad and my son, and I still think about it. We ended up driving out here twice in a single week and trust me, we do not live down the street. It was a true drive to dine situation, but worth every single mile. The food is incredible. Every single side we order was flawless and made to absolute perfection. The candid yams were fantastic, and the cornbread was soft and sweet like cake (tasted just like the way my dad makes it). I even tried greens for the very first time here and surprisingly they tasted great. I ate all of them and drunk the juice. Don't let the crowd scare you off. There's usually a line, but it moves pretty quickly. Plus, the service is so friendly that the whole place just feels like family if you're looking for an authentic welcoming spot with amazing comfort food this is it. No wonder when you grew with display it says number one soulful spot in Houston.

We just went with the food that was ready to go. And even went back for an extra side--Mac n' cheese for my son. Whew! Lots of food, and it's all sooooo good! In addition to the mac n' cheese, we tried the chicken gumbo, chicken with sweet potatoes (they're sweet) and greens (so tasty!), chopped steak with green beans and mashed potatoes. I will most certainly be back!
