Josh, the food and service was excellent. I had hot wings and it was the bomb!!!Hope to see you again on the next visit to Orlando.

Jerk Chicken with rice n peas , Fries and Sweet plantains .
Tassandra L.

Ordered jerk chicken off of DoorDash. I choose the sides plantains and fries (originally wanted potatoe salad but they were out ) . The food was good fries was seasoned but just slightly too salty for me . The chicken was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. I do wish it came with more sauce/gravy so next time I will remember to request for extra. The food was excellent and the portions are worth the price. They did not mess up my order which was great. When I arrived to pick up my order, inside was full of tables set up for people to dine in and the person in the front greeted me with a warm smile. Definitely would return back .

Chicken Alfredo chicken pasta
Angela L.

This was my third and final attempt with Seana's. The turkey wings were covered in salty gravy to hide that the meat was bone dry. The Alfredo pasta was bland, pale, and topped with tiny pieces of chicken that looked nothing like the photo online. CARIBBEAN food should have color, flavor, and real seasoning. None of that was in this meal. The food was so bad my turkey is still untouched. I even thought about taking it back to the restaurant to show how disappointing it was. I had considered ordering their turkey for Thanksgiving catering, but after this, there is no way I would serve this to anyone.

Mashed potatoes and Cabbage
Jessica A.

I really wanted to like this place. I came in on a Saturday evening. I was greeted by the owner who was welcoming and friendly. I ordered the 6 piece wings lemon pepper with mashed potatoes and cabbage, and added two pieces of catfish. The wings and catfish were both fried well. I found everything perfectly crispy. The fish was too salty for my liking, and I'm the person who likes everything salty. But that's a matter of opinion. The real issue was the sides. The mashed potatoes were probably the worst I've ever had from a restaurant. They had a yellowish hue that was consistent with the color of the cabbage. You can see in the picture the potatoes almost had a thick hard crust along the edges. There's absolutely no way those were made in the last 3 days. And if they were, they aren't being stored properly. The "gravy" tasted like chicken bouillon and water. The cabbage was equally as bad. I don't know what they're using to make the food yellow, but it's not butter and it looks unappetizing. The saving grace was really the fish and wings being fried well. The prices are also very reasonable. I won't be returning, because this place gives me the vibe that it's hit or miss, and sides are very important in my opinion. When I'm eating something fried and salty, I'd like a light veggie such as cabbage or an airy mashed potato to pair it with. But the only things edible were the fish and wings. I'd suggest getting a "safe side" like fries that are likely made to order. They have too many options for sides and are obviously having trouble keeping things fresh.

Turkey Wings
Arthur B.

Today I want to talk about a place that got me through some of the weirdest, toughest years of our lives--Seanas in Orlando. I used to hit up Seanas regularly during the pandemic. I mean, regularly. Back then, it was one of the few spots that really felt like comfort food for the soul--turkey wings that could fix your day, mac that could make you forget the news cycle, and cabbage that tasted like someone's auntie had been in the kitchen doing the Lord's work. They've got an incredible story: opened in 2020, survived COVID, fed NBA players during the bubble (which is wild), and somehow grew into one of Orlando's most beloved spots. So, today I was hit with a powerful craving: turkey wings. After a solid three-year hiatus, I figured I'd test the waters again via Uber Eats. Here's what I got: * Turkey Wing Plate * Rice with gravy ($0.50 upcharge) * Mac & Cheese ($2.50 upcharge) * Cabbage * Pineapple Lemonade The Verdict? Let's start with the gravy. Thick. Bold. Covered the rice like a warm blanket. Perfectly seasoned. The kind of gravy that makes you pause mid-bite to appreciate the flavor chemistry happening in your mouth. The turkey wings? Smothered in that same glorious gravy. Flavor? On point. Fall-off-the-bone vibes? Almost. My only gripe? Too many bones, not enough meat. I felt like I was doing orthopedic surgery just to get a decent bite. But when I did? It was worth the effort. Rice: Solid. Held up under the gravy flood. Good texture, not mushy, and properly seasoned. Cabbage: Now this was the sleeper hit. Seasoned all the way through--deep, soulful, rich. It actually elevated the wings and rice when you got the perfect forkful. Slightly overcooked? Maybe. But I'm not mad at it. I'd take flavor over texture every time. Mac & Cheese: No crust on top (probably scooped from the middle), but no complaints here. Creamy, cheesy, flavorful. Bonus points for the use of cavatappi noodles--they held onto the cheese sauce like champs. Pineapple Lemonade: Okay, so... it didn't taste like pineapple OR lemonade. More like if fruit punch and Sprite had a baby at a church picnic. Sweet as sin, but nostalgic. Reminded me of the mystery punch they'd serve after Sunday service. I added some ice to tone it down, and it was honestly kind of perfect after that. Final Thoughts: Seanas is still doing what they do best--feeding people food that feels like home. This meal brought back memories, hit the spot, and made me smile. If you've never tried them, you're missing out on a piece of Orlando soul food history. And if you have? You already know what's up. Shout out to Seanas. Y'all still got it.

My s/o & I was craving some soul food so we drove 45 minutes to this location & I promise you every minute was worth it the jerk chicken was soooo good! The chicken was not dry, the sauce was good & spicy! The mac & cheese was good-- not dry at all! The sweet potatoes were so good too! Their honey fried chicken was worth fighting over too all in all this is a great Caribbean soul food spot. Coming from the Bronx it's hard to find Caribbean spots that exceed my expectations but Seana's definitely did!

Oxtail

Seannas food is delicious. But her the energy of this place really is above and beyond. They promote other small businesses selling their products to help them build up, that is wholesomeness. But also the food is

Fried okra
Peachtra C.

I wanted some pasta and after a quick search Seana's was perfect because they had a jerk chicken pasta . Upon arriving I was second in line. I ordered the jerk chicken pasta which came with garlic bread . I also decided to order a brown stew chicken dinner which came with rice & plantain & I was able to also order 2 more sides. So I ordered the Mac & Cheese & Candied yams. I also ordered fried okra . They had one more order of rum punch left so I ordered that too . My dinner came with a drink as well. It took about 20 mins for my order to be ready. I ate the okra before I made it home & it was crispy and delicious. The jerk pasta was delicious & took me 2 days to finish it . It was packed with meat and flavor. The rum punch packed a punch in strength. the chicken dinner I still haven't finished . I did eat The Mac & Cheese & Yams which were delicious. The chicken & rice will be dinner today or tomorrow. The host was great . The music was a vibe I would definitely return.

Cat fish with collards and Mashed Potatoes with gravy
Roberta K.

Ordered tonight for delivery and can't wait to have it again. What an incredible value for the price. We ordered catfish which comes with two sides my mom picked collards and mashed potatoes with gravy. It was a large portion but she just couldn't stop eating it and ate it all. I ordered the stew chicken. It comes over rice of your choice I chose rice and peas. It came with several pieces of delicious chicken. It also came with two sides I chose green beans and cabbage. Both were full of flavor I couldn't even eat half of it the portion was so big. I may have also ordered a spicy patty and side of jerk chicken. I inhaled the patty and had a piece of the jerk chicken which was full of flavor. It had some heat but I could eat it spicier but it had perfect flavors. Still have two pieces of the jerk chicken left as well. I highly recommend trying them out. You won't be disappointed

Baked beans  Mac N Cheese Honey Fried Chicken
Destiny T.

My food was really good ! I got the honey fried chicken and two sides. It already came with rice. I also got the kool aid Service was fairly quick !

Lemon Pepper Chicken
Steve A.

This is a great place for Caribbean and soul food. You order at a counter, and then there are two long tables inside, or you can get your food to go. The menu is very extensive. It's remarkable about all the different items coming out of the small kitchen. We tried three different types of chicken, and they were all good: fried chicken, jerk chicken, and lemon pepper chicken. My favorite was the jerk chicken, which was unusual in that in addition to the jerk seasoning it also had a spicy sort of barbecue sauce. Each dish comes with your choice of rice (the rice and peas was great) and two sides. Excellent potato salad. I'm looking forward to returning and exploring more of the menu.

Seana's is an absolute hidden gem in Orlando. They are a soul food/Caribbean restaurant over in the Good Homes area. This is a small local joint that locals tend to flock to and it's very much a if you know you know type of vibe. When you walk in you'll see the rapport from locals with the restaurant staff. It's very much one of a mom and pop joint but the food certainly doesn't lack. The staff is incredibly friendly and hospitable and they always provide great service. We got an order of jerk chicken with rice and peas, mac and cheese, an order of salmon as well as an a la cart of shrimp. The jerk chicken was flavored to perfection, the spices hit just right. The mac cheese was seasoned well and still cheesy. The salmon was cooked perfectly, seasoned so well while still remaining juicy. The bottom line, this place is truly a hidden gem, the staff is extremely friendly, the food is amazing and all reasonably priced as well. This is absolutely worth a visit.

We ordered from Seana's this past weekend since we were in the area. It's been a while since my last review, so I figured I'd add an update. Happy to say Seana's is still a five star spot! We placed a to go order over the phone. It was ready on time and the people working there were super nice as they were last time! This time I decided to try their jerk alfredo pasta with chicken. This was sooo good! It was very well seasoned with a nice kick of heat and a great creamy consistency. There was a generous amount of chicken perfectly blackened (I always have trouble finding good blackened chicken and seafood and wish other spots did it as well as Seana's!) My bf ordered meatloaf with their mashed potatoes and delicious liquid gold mac and cheese and enjoyed it very much. We also got s beef patty which was tasty. Portions are very generous and the cost has remained very affordable for the amount and quality of food. I'll continue to support this great spot anytime I'm in the area!

Seanna's!

We seen Nikki's on a YouTube recommendation and decided to visit. We have no regrets whatsoever!!! From the start to the finish I knew we were in for a treat. Walking in Nikki's felt like stepping into Nanas kitchen, very down home, walls filled with accolades and other interesting things. The customer service was personable and very friendly. And the food, was wow!!! I've never had grits better than my own until Nikki's , my husband had bacon, home fries and grits and was very very pleased. Our waitress offer us their reputable biscuits and gravy complimentary and we definitely were grateful to take it. The biscuits were freshly made and sooooo great!!!

I will not be ordering pancakes just because though, I will however get another pancake from Nikki's Place when we return to Florida!!!

My meal was decent overall. I ordered the turkey wings with mac and cheese and collard greens…read more The turkey wings were seasoned well on the skin and the outer layer, but once I got into the meat, it was pretty flavorless. I wish the seasoning had carried through the entire piece. The mac and cheese was actually pretty good, especially for a Caribbean restaurant. I usually only enjoy mac and cheese from soul food restaurants, so this was a pleasant surprise. The collard greens were decent as well. The restaurant itself felt like one large space housing three different restaurants: Jamaican, Soul Food, and Haitian. It was very run down, there was no air conditioning, and with the Florida heat it was uncomfortable to dine inside. If I return, it will definitely be for takeout. Customer service was efficient and fairly quick, which I appreciated. One downside was the portion size. I ordered a large meal, but the amount of meat was surprisingly skimpy. Now, let's talk about the passion fruit punch. It was absolutely amazing! It was very sweet, but after adding a little water, it was perfect. Overall, I'd give it another try, probably ordering one of the fish dishes next time. Just don't expect me to dine in during a Florida summer.

There are a lot of younger ladies that work the front of the house and they're all extremely polite.

After standing there and realizing they weren't coming over, we went up to the counter. They said it would be a 45 minute wait. There was already a customer waiting on a togo order that was over and hour so, I started to get nervous that this was going to be a long experience. It only took us about 20 minutes to be seated and the food came over right away. That was definitely a pleasant surprise. We both ordered the baked chicken, with green beans and I had the veggie rice. I appreciated the extra piece of chicken they gave me but you could tell the chicken was old. The green beans were very salty and the rice was okay. You definitely get your money's worth in food. I would just return earlier in the day to get fresh chicken.
