    This is the beef patty. Its usually in a warmer until you are ready to eat

    I ordered a beef patty and instead of just giving it to me the cashier put the bag down on the counter and took other orders. After watching my food sit for 5min i asked for my food he got extremely rude with me so at this point i asked for a refund and he refused and called out other names. Last time im going here First choice Caribbean has better food and they are always nice

    Oxtail with rice & peas ( I already started eating it  )

    Best oxtails in upstate! They had favor and was tinder, the goat is also very good ! Not spicy but had lots of favor and was also tinder, the food was soooo good I thought I was back in NYC ( I ordered a large oxtail dinner with rice & peas, a small curry goat with rice & peas )

    Every person who comes to the U.S. brings their rich culture, beautiful art and music, and, oh…read moreyeah, delicious cuisine with them, and the Haitian community is no exception. Our communities are enriched by the gifts they bring. Yesterday, I got to experience it firsthand thanks to Amy and her crew over at A.J. W Caribbean Restaurant! They hooked me up with a FANTASTIC meal--a TON of fall-off-the-bone tender stew and delicious black rice and pigeon peas with some of the biggest plantain pieces I've ever seen! They've been open here in Albany for just over a year (a critical milestone in restaurant operations!), and if you haven't been here yet, you're missing out! I'll definitely be back (hopefully to try their snapper!)

    Sometimes a single dish is reason enough to try a new restaurant, and this is the case with akra…read moreat AJW. It's not fried okra as I assumed but a fritter based on taro. Moist inside, crispy outside with just a bit of heat. A must. Also had a medium portion of the beef stew with vegetables which was easily enough to serve 2. Stew was pleasant with harmonious flavors but the available spicy slaw kicked it up a notch. Accompanied by black rice which now comes with green peas, not mushrooms, and a pleasant plantain patty. (I'm used to plantains sliced like bananas at Cuban places and guess this one is mashed then reconstituted into a patty.) Slices of onion and bell pepper, shown in previous photos, no longer included nor is what looked like a pretty ordinary side salad. Still a very good value for what I received. The interior is spacious and pleasant (apparently a former Starbucks) and a little hard to find with a difficult to read sign. It's to the left of the Men's Wearhouse store in a strip mall facing Colonie Center. Give it a go so this cuisine newcomer does not go away!
