Amazing authentic Jamaican food. Service was fast and friendly, food was flavorful. This is a must visit everytime we are in Houston.

Drawn here because of its partnership with inKind, I was extremely disappointed when the app encountered some issues, so I wasn't able to use my points to pay for my order. The woman taking my order (sorry, I didn't catch her name) was gracious about changing my order after we realized the inKind app wasn't working. I opted for the jerk chicken, plaintains, and (Caribbean) potato salad, which was a first for me! The woman let me know ahead of time that the potato salad had a pink coloring due to the beets used in it; I'm glad she told me, atherwise the color would've taken my by surprise. I could barely taste the beets, but the relish and mayo were great combos. The rice was super fluffy, though the chicken was a bit bony and not as plentfiul as I am accustomed to when ordering from other Jamaican establishments. I dined in so was able to see the in and out traffic; it appears that they have steady customers, which is always a good sign! The overall vibe is super casual. read more

Great food and generous portions! I got the goat curry, and not only was it tender and flavorful, but there was a ton of food on the plate. It came with rice and steamed vegetables and was absolutely delicious. I was able to split this plate into 3 different meals, so you really get a bang for your buck here. The staff was also really friendly, and the service was fast. My only note is about the parking situation. There is a very limited lot in the back of the building, and because the strip has multiple businesses, a spot can be hard to get. If the lot is full, there is street parking in the neighborhood behind. I definitely want to come back to try the oxtails. read more

Reggae Hut - Caribbean Near Me - Houston, Texas

Soooo good y'all! This was my first time trying Jamaican food and I'm glad that it was at Reggae Hut. The lady at the front let us try samples of their different curries and stews which was so sweet! It definitely helped us narrow down our decision and expose us to new flavors. We ordered the curry chicken and brown stew snapper. Their curry is honestly some of the best I've ever tried from any cuisine. Nice kick and incredible flavor and spices. I cleaned my plate thoroughly. The rice and veggies were solid. I loved their vibrant potato salad. The brown stew snapper was a tad bit salty and the portion was humongous... But the flavors were great as well. I think the brown stew pairs better with chicken when I tried it as a sample. The snapper was a bit dry in my opinion. Overall, a great first impression of Jamaican food and I must come back whenever I'm in the area! read more

Carl is a top notch professional! This was my first time here. I saw a flyer from my breakfast Klub order. I had no idea they were sister companies. Carl understands client relations! He is very personable and made some great menu suggestions! Food: I got the jerk chicken with oxtail sauce. It was different but good! I typically like my jerk chicken with skin on it. This one was skinless. The oxtail sauce was great! I'll definitely comeback and try the oxtails. The rice and peas were good too. Last the carrot cake was real good. Solid 5 stars. Carl is the best. I'll definitely be back soon! I must try them oxtails. read more

Reggae Hut - Curry Chicken - Caribbean Near Me - Houston, Texas

I ordered two large curry goats with rice, peas, and cabbage. It was outstanding. The meat was so soft, falling off the bone, and very flavorful. I thought plantains automatically came with the order, but they didn't. You have to order plantains separately. They are $4.95 for 8, and we ended up getting 10. So that was a nice surprise since it's unusual not to get plantains in the meal. But back to the food, everything was so delicious. There were even potatoes in the goat gravy. And, little nibbles of corn on the cob in the cabbage, which also came with broccoli and carrots. The vegetables were so soft and felt good going down. I also ordered some homemade lemonade which was a little on the sweet side but still very, very good. We parked in a small parking lot on the backside of the store. It's small inside, so we decided to park close by and enjoy our food in the car. read more

So I called in a jerk shrimp salad with extra ranch on side. Especially with the amount of food they serve here, I just knew I needed more. This was around 11am! Yes I wanted jerk in the morning. I'm not a big breakfast food eater. That salad was delicious! Then it was topped with grilled onions and peppers!!! I'm not sure but that ranch tastes home made! But this salad consists of cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, carrots, lettuce and jerk shrimp of course... read more

A classic Jamaican spot in the third ward area. I've been going here since I was a little girl and they've been pretty consistent. On majority visits I always get the brown stew chicken with rice and peas and cabbage. The sauce is thick, flavorful and has a subtle sweetness. There are some carrots and potatoes in the stew as well. I love the rice and peas as it's moist and you can taste the coconut as well as the fresh herbs in it. The cabbage is also good, sometimes it can use some salt but the flavor is there. I can never not come here and get a beef patty or chicken patty. I love them both and I always get a side of jerk sauce to dip it in. Great ambiance and vibes inside!! read more

Reggae Hut - Jerk Chicken - Caribbean Near Me - Houston, Texas

I had family visiting Houston and they wanted to try different foods. None of us have had too much experience with Caribbean food so we decided to order Reggae Hut. Pick up was easy, employees were super nice. We got: - the oxtails (10/10...soo tender, fatty and flavorful) -curry chicken (10/10, fall off the bone meat with the perfect amount of spice) -jerk chicken (7/10, loved the kick it had, the savoriness...chicken was a little dry) -the rice and peas, veggies, and potato salad balanced out the saltiness of the entrees well -beef patties had a delicious flaky crust I will be craving the oxtails. Will most likely order again soon read more

This is my second time getting takeout. My first takeout of goat curry with vegetable medley and rice was ok, came with an acceptable amount of meat curry so I thought to myself that was a good meal and I would go back. But this time, the quality and value of it was not consistent. Still tastes decent but absolutely Overpriced. Got the a la carte shrimp dish and the goat curry. How is this a $40 takeout? And the goat curry is mostly bones this time. The pictures are taken before a single bite was eaten. read more

First here. Parking for the restaurant is in the rear of the building. I placed an order online and it was ready upon arrival. I like the promptness and timeliness. I ordered the curry got and I love that they give a decent amount of curry goat which has big chunks. Most places skimp on goat and gives smaller bites but I appreciate the portion size. I did order double rice & peas. Ambiance wise, typical Caribbean restaurant vibes; nothing fancy just casual spot to eat and hangout with friends. read more

Reggae Hut - Curry Goat - Caribbean Near Me - Houston, Texas

I think this is the best Jamaican resturant in houston. And if you look on other places I probably have a review on it but I have only tried ones on doordash. The oxtails have the best depth of flavor I've had in houston. Now they are pricey at about $40 for the entree and I only got 4 pieces. However they were very big and full of meat. They could be a bit more tender but overall very tasty. I think I would be very happy if they gave about 7 pieces. I also got a chicken and beef patty.. the chicken was more my jam than the beef. I wish the beef was a bit more flavorful or spicy. They were very fresh and maybe homemade? I can never tell The plantains were also very good. I haven't tried the carrot cake yet but it looks moist and tasty. I would maybe come back when a craving is really bad (like today) but for the price I think I would make them myself so I can have more than one serving read more

I used to loveeee reggae hut but I'm quite disappointed by my last visit there. The veggie plate was really small and there was no plantains. I hope it was an error as this has been a stable in the community for some time now. read more

Food was amazing I got oxtails ,..I know I know expensive(45$) but they were good nonetheless I would go back again but try something else this time. The veggies were nice and soft and steamed the rice and peas was so good I had to order extra to go! Oxtails.. it was 3 big ass ones which I guess would be more meat than 6 -8 small ones so I kind of see why it was so expensive there's a lot that goes into cooking those things so I'll always Esther to just pay but that's just me haha we tore that food up didn't even get a pic read more

Came here to eat dinner after arriving in Houston for the night. Had not been to this tea in years since attending The Texas Southern University. This has been a staple in the community since 1997 and always proves a delicious treat. My wife, two daughters and I came together. You order at the register and they will bring the food to your table (open seating). The portions are quite LARGE, so come with an appetite or share. We all had a beef patty to start and almost ordered more. Very flaky crust with a great amount of well seasoned filling. My wife and I shared the Stewed Chicken plate. Comes with Chicken (dark and white meat),rice and beans, and cabbage. My daughters shared the Jerk Chicken that comes with the same sides. Plantains have to be requested as they have a lot wasted as many do not eat it. The chicken on both plates was well seasoned and tender, the rice and beans were moist and delicious, that cabbage (Man!) is the truth. Only my wife makes it better. Me and my wife had a Rum Punch ( comes bottled) . The rum punch is not lacking rum ( just a bit too sweet for me). My oldest had lemonade (bottled as well). She loved it. Of Note: they provide same tastings if you don't know what you want. If you are ever in Houston and want great Jamaican Food this is a must. Was so hungry I forgot to take a picture . read more

Got their jerk chicken, garlic shrimp, and goat curry. Hands down. So delicious and will 100% be back. Great spices with strong flavor and tender meat all around. I got take out and it was still amazing. Spent 65$ and had plenty of leftovers for next day and fed two very hungry people. read more

Reggae Hut is one of the most underrated spots in Houston, if you like good food you'll love eating here! The beef patties are to die for, you have to get one when you go. We also got the brown stew chicken, goat curry, and plantains. Portions were large. They have a happy hour from 4-7 with $3 beers and other drink deals. The inside is decorated with Jamaica themed murals that give it a colorful and casual ambiance. read more

I ordered the curry Goat. It looks like soup. They barely put any curry on it. The color is horrible and the taste is worse.

I ordered jerk chicken, my friend had brown stew chicken. She said it was very good. My chicken was spicy and good. I ordered online for pick up. The food was ready when I got there. They had music playing inside that gives vacation-like Jamaica vibes. Portions to price is excellent. I want to try to oxtail and the patties. Would go back. read more

I thoroughly enjoyed everything about this place. The jerk chicken was spicy and delicious. The beef patties were so amazing .

Man this place is amazing from the time you walk in you get Kingston vibes. The service was amazing, everyone was helpful and the owner was very nice. But the food was absolutely incredible, by far some of the best Jamaican food I have had outside of Jamaica 10/10 must try again. read more

The vibes in this restaurant is immaculate. I immediately felt like I was transported back home to the island. The servers were friendly and attentive. Originally, I came to order the oxtail, but after seeing the $50 price tag, I had to settle for the jerk chicken. My order was one beef Patty, jerk chicken plate, and lemonade for $30.... Ok cool, this is definitely more of a $20 meal but "inflation" or whatever. The food was very delicious and well packaged for it to be to-go. The jerk chicken was not swimming in sauce like other comments stated and the rice & peas wasn't mushy. Maybe they came on a bad day. I think all of the food was delicious and filling and VERY authentic. I would definitely drive back here from Pearland. 10/10 read more

Feels like my little spot in Jamaica. I don't know how it usually is but the A/C seemed to be off when we visited. But it's something about eating some jerk chicken in the heat, brings me back to the island so I actually didn't mind lol. Music jamming, folks eating and enjoying. Great vibes. But no really, walk in and order at the front. We got the jerk chicken plate with steamed veggies and rice n peas and the brown stew chicken plate. You have to order plantain on the side which was new for me BUT at least the order is large. Fried plantain just completes me and I must have it so I'm happy it's plentiful. Jerk chicken had great flavor, beautiful kick. They have Matouk's to add more heat. My man liked the brown stew. Rice n peas are fire, and oooo do not forget to eat that corn. Sop it in the jerk seasoning and let it get to the cob, so good. Definitely plan to come back and try a few more things in the menu. Other notes: . Oxtail is market price: currently at $46 an order. . Beef patties only come in orders of 3 or 6 . They have sorrel read more

We wanted some Jamaican food so we stopped by Reggae Hut on a VERY hot Saturday. It wasn't crowded when we got there so we were able to order right away. We got the fish, rice and plantain to share because it was a really huge serving. We tried sitting outside but it was way too hot so we moved inside. Our food came out quick but they forgot the plantain and the serving size of it was super small. The service was decent too, definitely better than other JA restaurants I've been too. read more

Great vibe and friendly staff but there are Mexicans in the back making the food. There was so much thyme stems in the rice it was not edible & the meat was a bucket of grease. Definitely not authentic Caribbean food. Maybe I'm just biased cause I lived in south Fl for many years & have been to the Caribbean but it's not even close. read more

All the yums! I was craving Jamaican food (oxtails in particular) so we took to Yelp to search the area, honed in on Reggae Hut, and made our way over! There was a bit of a line, but it moved rather quickly. The ordering process was easy peasy, and the food was delish! I enjoyed my oxtails, hubs' jerk chicken was ok, and the beef patties were great. I truly wish they had the commercially bottled ginger beer (like they have the Ting available for purchase) as their homemade bottle that I purchased was far too sweet, missed the mark with minimal amounts of ginger present. I could only handle one sip, and truly missed that on this food trip. :( Their bottled tea was much better. All things considered, I'd definitely return for oxtails and a beef patty whenever I'm in the mood. Cheers! read more

Delicious! I had the jerk chicken , vegetable melody, and rice with peas. I also order the plantains. One word delicious. Customer service was on point also. I received a call the next day from Avery asking about my experience and asked his was the food. I thought this was very thoughtful and a nice touch from this establishment. Don't second guess go there!!! I can't wait to return. Would post a picture of the plate but it's gone. lol DELICIOUS!!!! read more

I threw up directly after eating, the chicken was dry. I'm not sure if it was fresh or old, food wasn't good at all. If i wasn't at work, i would have taken it back, and asked for a refund. read more

Wow! I've never reviewed Reggae Hut??? I've been coming here maybe once a year for the past 20+ years and always love it! The food is always on point, with a massively filled plate as all Caribbean restaurants do. Excellently flavored as well. The service is good. Order at the counter, sit your arse down and wait for them to cook it up and bring it out. You won't see them again after they bring you the food so if you want/need something else, get up and go ask. The ambiance gives Jamaican diner. They have more tables this year than I'd seen in the past, and the place is never crowded so you can enjoy your dining guests in a pleasant environment without all the loudness you'll get next door at TLH. After eating we always scoot next door to the Caribbean boutique to browse and buy things we don't need, but it's the experience man! 5 STARS ALL DAY!! read more

Was craving some Jamaican food, so I decided to finally give this spot a try. I always go to the competitor (habit), but my friend's swear by this place. I ordered Garlic Shrimp, but went back and forth between that and the Curry Goat. First off, the staff was very pleasant. Both Carl & Maya were friendly and personable. Carl even let me taste test the goat before I left and... geesh! My food was flavorable and portioned well. The staff alone makes me want to come back sooner than later. read more

I wish I could eat this every day!! I love Caribbean food and my sister wanted something different for lunch. She found this place in the area where we were heading. She ordered online so we wouldn't have to wait. I suggested the curry chicken. When she came back to the car with the food, we waited no time to taste it. OMG!!! So flavorful, so good!! The curry chicken with cabbage and rice and peas was on point!! The chicken fell off of the bone. And that cabbage!! My God!! We ate like savages while sitting at the red light. Lol!! I think we ate most of the food while in the car. She also ordered a meat pie. That was devoured before we hit the interstate. The food was do delicious that we thought about going back for more later that day!! If you visit the Turkey Leg Hut, right next to it, stop into the Reggae Hut. Get some food and don't forget to order the sweet tea. If you know about the Breakfast Klub, you know the tea is to die for. You will be happy you got it!! read more
