    a container of pasta
    Jamesa H.

    Listennnn!!!!! I wish you could see the video instead of screenshots! I visited Rose's location in the mall food court and when I tell you I LIVE!!! Yes, I ordered 3 of the hottest items on the menu for myself (oxtails with a side of collards, jerk chicken with , a side of Mac & cabbage, & Pasta). Would have been 4 but it was close to closing and the beef patties were sold out lol From the price/portion to the seasonings, to the customer service & love, Rose's better be your first stop when you're in the Columbus area. You will NOT regret it!! I'm full all over again just reminiscing about this amazing meal!!

    So glad I finally made it to Rose's! Saw it on an episode of True South, and it was worth the trip! Had the boneless jerk chicken, peas & rice, collards, and Caribbean mac. Ordered a chicken patty as well. For $13, it was a bag full of food. Jerk chicken was tender and juicy, with a great flavor (plus an afterburn of heat). The food is great and I see they're opening a food truck! The location is a little hard to find at first, but now that I know, I will be back!

    Curry chicken $10 with cabbage, yams and rice sides

    I haven't had a huge share of Caribbean food in my life. Some when on Caribbean cruises or in the Miami area. Jeremy had heard on base that Rose's was THE one to try in Columbus. It's in a strip mall just a few blocks from the fort. Service was polite and friendly. Offering to help describe any menu items. The oxtail plate was rich, but the meat very fatty. The curry chicken plate had tender meat that fell of the bone. Both dishes needed salt. In fact, even the sides needed some salt. Sweet potatoes were delicious. The cabbage ok. The fried rice was the best side. This isn't a fancy spot. Plenty of parking.

    Jerk chicken pasta

    We're in town, from California. My son and his gf, recommended this place. It's a literal hole in the wall, and it's amazing! The food was hot as in the temperature, it was so good! I wanted to pick up that oxtail and wanted to suck on it, but I kept my composure. It was empty when we walked in, around noon, but as soon as we ordered and sat, there was a line. The service was friendly and prompt. I had oxtail, with jerk fried rice, and plantains, my hubby had jerk pork, jerk rice, and plantains, same as our friend, and my son had the pasta. All was so good! I definitely recommended.

    Simple interior, superior food

    False advertising, small portions and not authentic Caribbean food. Will not be revisiting this establishment.

    Borinquen Foods - Buffet style service. Food was less than mediocre.

    Puerto Rican cuisine is far from an area of my expertise, but I am well-versed in the perils of the…read morebuffet. Few cuisines lend themselves to buffet service as only certain types of foods sit well for long periods of time. Fried foods are the worst, as their golden crispy crunch can quickly become oily and soggy. Roasted foods aren't much better, as they begin to dry out as they sit. The only things that preserve well are soups and other liquid-based foods, as they are kept the proper temperature while still maintaining their original quality. As such, my experience with the buffet at Borinquen was decidedly mixed. Things like the lentils, beans, and this fish and potato stew were nice and interesting, and I was even able to catch some fried fish as it was coming out of the oven that was enjoyable, too. The fried plantains, on the other hand... not so much. I'm left with an impression of a restaurant that certainly has what it takes to offer some good Puerto Rican food, but the talent is being squandered by the lunch buffet. Dinner would probably be a better bet.

    We went on Wednesday for lunch. The place was practically empty except for 2 tables. The staff…read morewasn't very friendly. Nobody greeted us even though they saw us. We had to ask how things operate and a lady told us it's self serve buffet style. We filled our plates and paid then sat down. Not once did anyone come over and ask how things were or check on us for anything. The food was less than mediocre Latin cuisine, really nothing special or worth driving to far for. Too bad because being Hispanic myself and being new to the Columbus area, I was really looking forward to some good Latin food but I didn't find that here. We didn't even go back for seconds. I used the restroom before I left and they were dirty and smelled bad. This entire place was one big disappointment.
