As Caribbean people, especially those who own restaurants and serve others, we've got to do better…read more-- raise the standards, man. On Saturday, we went to Flames in Randolph and ordered a large curry goat and a medium oxtail. When I got home, I sat down to enjoy my curry goat and white rice. First bite in -- I felt something strange. I spit it out, and lo and behold, it's a big ol' rock! (See picture below.) I was stunned, like, what in the world is this big macco rock doing in my food? My appetite vanished immediately. I called Flames right away and spoke with a polite employee who apologized sincerely. She asked if I wanted my money back or a new meal. I told her to process a refund. She said she'd let her manager know and that I'd need to come in and swipe my card, but she reassured me not to worry and apologized again. I appreciated that. Fast forward to today (10/28), I went in and spoke with a manager named Nord. After explaining everything, instead of showing empathy or professionalism, she said the employee who handled it "did not do the right thing" and started lecturing me about their policy, saying the rock came from the rice, so it's not their fault. Like WHAT! I had to stop her right there. I said, "Call Jonathan, the owner, and let's just sort this out." I wasn't there to argue and I just wanted a refund or a replacement meal. After a few back and forth, she finally gave me another large goat meal. But honestly, if this was a reputable business, there would've been no need for all that. A good manager would've apologized, empathized, and made it right. Imagine if that rock had broken my tooth -- this could've been a serious situation! What's worse? The employee who handled things correctly got called and reprimanded for simply doing her job -- for caring about the customers and showing decency. That's unacceptable. And let's talk about accountability. Imagine finding a rock in your meal and being told, "It's not our fault, it's the rice." Really? So y'all don't wash the rice? The rice white, the rock black -- how no one see that? That's pure negligence. And to top it off, the food isn't even the same anymore. The curry goat I got today? No flavor, no love, like they forfot ro add the spices-- uugh. Should've just got the refund. The bottom line is this: Flames, and all Caribbean restaurants, we have to do better. Hire people who genuinely care about the customers, who understand what hospitality means. This "bad attitude, twist-up face, no compassion" culture has to stop. Mistakes happen -- that's life -- but taking ownership and valuing your customers makes all the difference. I've been featured in magazines and recommended Flames many times -- globally. But after this experience, I can't continue to support or recommend them. My few dollars might not make a dent, but one thing I know for sure: when people realize they deserve better, they will choose better.

However, we make full use of delivery and have ordered from Jamaica's Best a number of times now. Everything we've had here is delicious, flavorful, and well prepared. The portion sizes won't disappoint either! We usually get a medium size on the jerk or curry meats which comes with rice, veggies, and plantains and that lasts us three meals each. My personal faves from here are the oxtail and jerk pork. SO likes to get beef patties from here, and I've seen other carribbean classics on the menu I'd like to try at some point. Highly recommend supporting!

I hate that this is too far from where I live because I wish their dinuguan (pork blood soup) is accessible. Same with their lechon kawali sisig. I've been going to this place multiple times and I always have a set of things I order. Every. Damn. Time. They're really savory and almost tastes like home. I love looking at the menu and deciding to order the same thing I get. The staff are friendly and it never hurts hearing Filipino language being spoken in Greater Boston Area (actually it does because it makes me homesick lol). I would love this place to get more staff though. I feel like it's popular and there are many people who would line up and wait for their orders so service could take some time. But I love how this restuarant really reminds me home!

My husband really liked his very first Jamaican patty (he got the last chicken patty). This place is a gem. Wish there was better parking but I was glad to get some exercise. Staff were friendly. Prices were reasonable. Food was of good quality. I was interested in trying the oxtail meal but it was $25 so I opted for something else. It was lunch time when we got there and they weren't that busy. There was a group where there was a toddler who was being loud and obnoxious. I know the staff wasn't responsible for something like that but if was disruptive to other customers and the mother or guardian was clearly not doing anything about it, I think staff should gently remind the party that they should be considerate to other customers.
