Why ain't nobody tell me that the Trinis had the oxtail game on lock?…read more I've never had oxtail this tender in my life. It fell off the bone. You literally didn't even need teeth to eat these oxtails. The plate came with a lot of food too: A generous portion of oxtails of all different sizes: big ones, little ones, medium size.... But all of them were meaty and incredibly flavorful. It came with my choice of spinach or cabbage. I chose the cabbage, and it was delicious. It also came with rice and peas, two pieces of plantain, and macaroni and cheese. This was a big plate, full of food! But this is Texas, so I'm not surprised. I also wanted a little cocktail, so I asked the lady at the counter if the rum punch was strong. She gave me a slow nod and that should have prepared me, but ya girl was not ready. I got the blue rum punch, I think it was Caribbean breeze flavor. It tasted like it had coconut milk in it, but I couldn't make out the other ingredients. What I could make out was that rum. That rum was loud! And pronounced! I wanted a strong drink and I damn sure got it! How strong was it? Well...I'm not a lightweight but I barely got through a third of the cup. I was feeling it after the first few sips. If I drank that whole thing I knew I was either going to be swinging from the chandeliers or asleep in the middle of a crosswalk somewhere. That rum punch will creep up on you. Y'all better take it from me and sip slow. This is definitely one of the best meals I've had in Texas and, hands down, the best order of oxtails I have ever had.l!

My daughter has to get a patty every time we visit, and I never leave without one of their homemade juices. The owner is always friendly and welcoming whenever I see him, which keeps me coming back. The food is consistently worth the wait and worth every penny. Speaking of waits, service can be a little slow at times, so I recommend calling ahead or visiting when you're not in a rush. It makes the experience much more enjoyable. The only reason I'm giving a strong 4 stars instead of 5 is the customer service from some of the staff. While not everyone falls into this category, many of the employees can come across as a bit reserved. Once you engage with them, they're usually pleasant, but a few more smiles and a warmer atmosphere would really elevate the experience. I'd love to walk in one day and feel the vibrant, welcoming island energy reflected throughout the restaurant. That said, I'll definitely keep coming back for those wings!

I've passed by The Island Spot so many times at Midway and Trinity Mills and never stopped in--but…read moreI'm really glad I finally did today. I came in for lunch and ordered the jerk chicken lunch special with beans and rice and a side salad. The chicken was incredibly tender--fall-apart, melt-in-your-mouth good--and packed with flavor. Fair warning, it definitely brings the heat! It's on the spicy side, but in the best way possible. Absolutely delicious. The atmosphere adds to the whole experience. There was lively music playing, colorful decor throughout, and a beautiful Jamaican beach mural that makes you feel like you've stepped out of Texas for a minute. And of course, you'll spot Bob Marley on the walls, which just feels right. My server mentioned they've been around for about 15 years, and you can tell--it's a solid, well-loved local spot. Great food, fun vibe, and a place I'll definitely be coming back to.

We ordered via online and realized they relocated. Of course we had to order multiple things to get a feel of their consistency. LET'S GET RIGHT INTO IT; We ordered the Pineapple Juice - (8/10) : The juice was good Hisbicus Tea - (4/10) : The tea was made with cane sugar; that defeated the purpose of a healthy and delicious tea. I really wanted it to be made with agave or date syrup. Side of Cabbage- (4/10) : Cabbage was very bland for fried cabbage, its wasn't seasoned at all and it wasn't cooked through enough to my liking. Side of Fried Brussel Sprouts - (7/10) : Brussel Sprouts were decent and actually seasoned. They just weren't mind blowingly good so a 7 was the best I could give it. Vegan Jerk Oxtail with Mushroom Rice - (8/10) : This right here was great however it was giving more vegan meatloaf then it was oxtail. We had to think of it as a meatloaf for us to be fully satisfied with the flavor. Overall though it was good and we enjoyed it. Vegan Lobster Mac and Cheese - (9/10) : This was the STAR of the show. It was delicious, creamy and the lobster pieces actually were giving lobster lowkey. We enjoyed this one the most and would return just to get this. The Ambiance of the restaurant was cool and definitely would be worth sitting in and enjoying the meals. The decor was decent inside and inside the bathroom, however, the bathroom needs to be upgraded. My rating... DEFINITELY would recommend the Lobster Mac and Cheese, we will return to get it again and maybe try another vegan option. I would totally recommend, GO TRY IT OUT! They also have non-vegan options that others rave about!

Was out on a Saturday afternoon and searched for food nearby. This restaurant came up and seemed…read moreinteresting as I've never had food from Guyana. The establishment itself is small and when entering it isn't entirely clear if one is supposed to sit at a table and wait for a menu or order at the counter. We ended up ordering at the counter after the server gave us a menu. (A sign in future might be helpful). Our server was very nice and answered our questions as we tried to figure out what best to eat. Overall the food tasted good though I think I'm used to a more robust flavor. I would give the place more stars but for a few things: (1) it was 70ish degrees outside but it was warmer inside the restaurant (seemed like they had the heat going very strong); (2) there were cartoons playing on the only TV and it might have been nice to have music or other Chanel options but there were kids present so presumably the cartoons were for them; and (3) we were told there were no restroom facilities. This latter issue was very surprising as I believe it is against state regulations to not have public restrooms in an eatery. A sign alerting customers to this inconvenience might also be advisable.

They were out of oxtails and she suggested to definitely come early for things as she usually sells out - I went there around 2. Each day has a different menu but oxtails, curry goat and chicken are served daily. I believe the roti is only served on the weekends.
