Food is delicious, however, if I am paying $24-$28 for a plate of Oxtail. I expect to get more than two pieces of meat. Unbelievable.. I will not be buying Oxtail here again. read more

I'm going to be honest here. I was craving this food like craving craving. So this is what I ordered. To my surprise it was a complete let down. The rice was over cooked or the vibes of left overs. The cabbage had a pickled taste to it. The fish was just fish. The plantines was the only food I liked. The service of the employees they were very polite and kind. The atmosphere inside wasn't much other than ordering your food and do a little bit of shopping for groceries. Very clean inside with a seating area. I do recommend you to try it out. I will give it another try . Some days or better than others, and that's ok it's life. This dish was $27. Go try it out ENJOY!! read more

YELP 100 CHALLENGE 2018 - PART 2: 61/100 Just to get out of the norm of "Texas" food, Big Bro and SIL suggested having Caribbean food. I've bookmarked another place, but since they're the considered locals around here, we went with their recommendation. Plenty of parking since it shares the lot with a few other businesses. It's a no-frills place, an absolutely mom-and-pop digs. And it isn't just a restaurant - they have a couple of small aisles showcasing a few Caribbean products to try and take home. Everything is made to order. Big Bro and I got the same thing: oxtail and goat. Pops originally wanted the escoveitch snapper. Sadly, they didn't have it available. So, he went for their chicken curry special. SIL got the fried snapper. Mom opted for nothing since she knew we would have plenty of food to share. There were a ton of people who came through as we waited. A few put in orders for dine-in, but most were there to pick up. This is a true testament of how popular this place is. But that occurrence may have played a big part as to why our food took more than 30 minutes for completion. The oxtail was cooked to almost perfection. Tender and off the phone, the flavor was infused with well-balanced spices. It truly was delicious. The goat was with only a slight hint of game which added to its essence. I am a complete fan of this combo. I got a chance to try the fried snapper. It was bomb.com! That made the wait almost worth it. The four orders were plenty of food for a party of 5. But there are a couple downers: 1. They need to keep the sodas and drinks stocked up. It is hot season during the month of June and having only one can of cold coke in the fridge is no bueno ESPECIALLY with that kind of crowd coming in and out. 2. Chicken curry special?! Flavor profile is unique and amazing. But it stopped being special once we discovered the chicken wasn't cooked through. It was a bit too bloody on the inside for our taste. I felt they might have rushed it a little given the multiple orders coming through. Overall okay experience, but not enough for me to come bomb-rushing back. There are a couple of other places I'd like to compare it to before considering a comeback. Until then, 3 stars. read more

This is not the level of food that we are used to from Royal Caribbean. It really bothers me to leave this review. For the first time ever I threw out any Jamaican cuisine and did not finish my meal.. I don't know what changed since moving to the Clear Creek location but we were thoroughly disappointed. Cabbage wasn't cooked thru and the oxtail sauce seemed like it was only flour & water. The plantains were the best part of my meal sadly..I really hope they get it together considering all of the newer Caribbean restaurants in the area vying for business. read more

We were looking for a place to eat...looked up on Yelp and was surprised to see so many Caribbean places to eat! So we decided on this place & enjoyed it. Husband and I had curry goat...yum! We took a brown stew chicken home for kids and picked up a few Caribbean grocery items to boot. I noticed they serve breakfast (salt fish!) and wished Killeen was a little closer to home. Service was good ...everyone was pleasant and smiling. Thanks for the treat that your food was! If we are back this way, we will definitely stop in!! read more

Royal Caribbean Restaurant - Curry goat plate! - Caribbean Near Me - Killeen, Texas

The aroma alone gets 4 stars. Order taker is friendly. I really like the cabbage for $2. The flavor is worth more but for the portion size the price is fitting. The curry chicken lunch special w/can soda is $6.50. The $2 Beef patty is filled reasonably; it has a lil spice. I want to try the $2.30 veggie patty next time. read more

Update Terrible customer service experience today. I've been a loyal customer driving from Georgetown!! Won't be returning for a while if at all. Wasted my time and gas today.

Just saw the name on the billboard while i was waiting for my hand braces and thought i would walk down at the end of the strip and try it. There were few people waiting for their order to go and it didn't take long for the staff to take my order. The staff was friendly and the restaurant also sells a few Jamaican products that you can buy. They have salted cod fish if you decide to cook your own ackee. I ordered the oxtail plate with jerk chicken. It comes with red beans and rice, cabbage and plantain. I also ordered one beef patty to go. Although it's pricey, well oxtail is expensive too.... It's worth the price and they do give you big portion. I couldn't eat all my food. The jerk chicken was very flavorful, oxtail was good, i had better... And the red beans and rice was mushy or maybe i should say it needs to be cooked longer.... The plantain was sweet and adds flavor to your food.... I might comeback one of these days and try the ackee. It's a far drive for me and only come this way if i have too... I do recommend this place! read more

There oxtail were juice and good only thing there really busy so if you decide to eat there better call.

This was my first time eating here and I can say it was decent. The to-go plate presentation was a bit sloppy and I felt the oxtail gravy was sweeter than I'm used too. The cabbage was good and the plantains just ok. I didn't feel full afterwards due to the small portion of oxtails. I will probably give this place another try but I hope they work on giving the customers their money's worth! read more

Royal Caribbean Restaurant - 5 piece fried chicken, plantains, cabbage, peas and rice - Caribbean Near Me - Killeen, Texas

I went here yesterday. I ordered the mic plate Jerk chicken and curry chicken. It came with cabbage and yellow rice and plantains. The food was lackluster both jerk and curry portions were small and had no taste. The cabbage was thrown together and have no taste to it. Plantains we're ok. I've been here before and the food was great. I'm not sure if it's a new cook or the low quality of food they use. I definitely wouldn't recommend the place. read more

One of the better Caribbean places in town. They have nice friendly service and are pretty quick on orders. The cabbage, plantains, and rice are really good as is their jerk chicken. I only wish they gave bigger portion sizes. While good flavored food, the portion sizes on the meats aren't that big--at least not if you're getting a double order of jerk chicken. Other than that, pretty decent place. read more

I could give this place 5 stars if the wait wasn't so long. The food was amazing. I don't know what's in the oxtails but they are addicting. Eating here everyday would be a dream come true. read more

First mistake was not ordering by phone. Second mistake was coming here knowing I had to be back for a meeting. Arrived during lunch time (12:18pm) and order a small curried chicken plate to go. Finally got it my order at 12:56pm. Took a quick glance when he opened it for me to check but was in a hurry at that point to get back for a meeting. The food is good (When I finally got to eat it) but I was a little perturbed that there was only ONE small piece of plantain (about 1.5" in size). read more

Authentic and served hot! Oxtails and curry chicken with beans, rice and cabbage were surprisingly tasty and tender. Coconut milk taste in the rice set it off! Friendly customer service and there's even some groceries in the store! Beef patty is good too! We ended up getting a second large plate because my daughter ate over half my food! I will definitely be back! read more

I ordered stewed chicken with yams and rice. The chicken was old, dried out, and tough. I know they were closing within the hour but they knew the food was not worth selling or eating so why serve it. I will never go back and waste my money. read more

The food is not worth how Expensive it is not worth the money at all.... If it was any good taste to eat I wouldn't mind paying for wat it's worth. Or if it had decent portions. I repeat don't order ox tails from here u will be very disappointed and I guess they don't put no type of gravy on the ox tails, like where's the stock u cooked them in?!?! Waste of money. read more

First time here as a real Jamaican the food was ok. I orders a medium oxtail and only got 4 thin slices of it and 2 of the pieces was tiny. The food had flavor but the portion size was not worth it. I also order a jerk chicken and it was very dry and had sweet gravy on it . I was not impressed with the jerk at all. The cashier was very nice. I ordered my food as the first in line as they opened and it took 25 minute for the chef in the back to dish out the first order. Very slow. read more

Simply put: Great Staff, Great Food. If you want real Caribbean food cooked by real West Indians, this is where you need to go. The other Caribbean restaurants in the area do not nearly match. FOOD: Authentic Caribbean cuisine. There are daily specials, groceries, cold drinks in a fridge and your average fountain beverages, blue bell ice cream as well! Food is always hot, expect about a twenty minute wait as the food it cooked and not pre made. PRICE: The price you pay is very reasonable for the amount of food you get. You can also purchase seasoning, teas, and other provisions in their market as well! STAFF: Friendly, serviceable staff. Great customer service. You can call ahead of you know you will be in a rush and they will expedite your order. read more

Ordered the large curry goat with rice & peas with oxtail gravy on it & a beef patty. Each part was very delicious & well portioned. The cabbage tasted different than other places, but still delicious. The only thing that upset me about my order was my husband ate my beef patty. Friendly staff & would recommend to others. Will definitely go back again. read more

I went here for lunch today and ordered the lunch special which was the chicken curry, I got it with white rice and plantains. I opted not to get the cabbage. I placed my order to go and when I took it home to take my first bite. I felt something hard, thinking it was just a piece of chicken bone I went to take it out my mouth and found that it was a thin piece of metal. Pretty shocked about it and was a huge turn off. read more

Great food and friendly.... If you come here enough they'll know your name and know how you like you plate. Great selection of drinks and they even have a little grocery area with all sorts of island products. This is my spot and I'm a big fan. The owner is so nice and always says hi if it ain't too busy. Come on down to this spot and support this small business. I know these mainstream fast food chains are all around but this is home cooked fresh ingredients which are all unprocessed. read more

This place is a better caribbean restaurant than the others around town. There is a store inside that carries spices and other product catering to the carribean shopper. Seats are limited especially around lunch, I usually have lunch around 11am when it's still slow. The customer service is ok and the food quality is good. From the carribean restaurant's in town that I have experienced, I would recommend anyone with exotic taste bads to try this place out. read more

Good spot. I enjoy going here. My only suggestion is that they add more meat to the large plate. Seems like you get the same portion size of meat no matter if it's a medium plate or large plate even though you pay more for large! Other than that I would eat here 2-3 times a week! read more

The food is good. However it's a rip off. For a 11.00 Oxtail plate, all I got was rice&peas. There were three SMALL oxtails, literally no meat. I'm all for portion control, however this wasn't cool. I tried them twice and it was the same thing. I understand as a business, in order to make money, they can't give away food. But this was ridiculous. There has to be a happy medium. I've heard from several people that the portions are a complete scam. Maybe once their business slows drastically, they will listen to the customer. I will say that the establishment is clean. read more

I come here everytime I'm in Killeen. I always get the oxtail and browned stewed chicken combo or the oxtail and curry goat combo. I gotta tell you, they are all pretty delicious every single time. I sometimes get the beef patty as well and that is delicious also. The service is great. They always treat you like family. This is definitely an authentic Jamaican spot. I will continue to come here. Definitely recommend it to everyone in the area. read more

I don't know where the positive reviews for this place are coming from! Maybe things have gone downhill lately? This place was such a huge disappointment. The goat roti was the worst I've ever had. It was watery and flavorless, and it was just goat, no potatoes or anything. I was actually lucky to even get it, since they were out of everything but 2 things on the menu. There were no knives, no ice, and the [warm] fountain drinks tasted like some kind of cleaning fluid. I wanted to like this place so badly, I drove an hour just to get some roti! But I'll never be back. Please do yourself a favor and skip this place. There are so many other amazing restaurants in town! read more

This place is like a Mom and Pop's Jamaican restaurant, small inside, few tables. I rate this place 2.3 stars. The food was average, but the portions were SMALL, for the price I paid for a combo plate meal with drink. (Oxtails/Jerk Chicken) the menu is also lacking. I wanted rice and beans, had to go for the white steamed rice, thats all they had. At the time they didn't have ice in the fountain drink machine, so I had to go for the warm sweet tea. I'll keep searching for a better Caribbean restaurant in the Killeen area. read more
