Stuffed Jerk Salmon with Candied Yams & Greens & Cabbage

I've been wanting to try this place out. It did not disappoint. The spice is spicing. I got stuffed salmon with sweet potatoes & cabbage & greens. We got an order of the jerk crab fries and he got spicy chicken linguine & 2 orders of watermelon breeze. Superb.

Oxtail, Candied Yams Curry Cabbage

Yum, yum, yum! Ordered the oxtail dinner delivery last night and it was DELICIOUS. They give you more than enough oxtails that are all meaty, candied yams cooked perfectly and the curry cabbage was surprisingly good. I ate the entire plate and was so full afterwards. My friend ordered the jerk chicken dinner which she shared was perfectly spicy, along with collards and rice and peas. She also enjoyed everything on her plate. Since we ordered delivery, I can't speak for service or ambiance; however, I will be making an in-person visit to try more of their menu in the future! If you haven't already, try them out!

Honey Butter Corn Muffin

Had a taste for Caribbean and wanted to try somewhere I haven't before. Did a quick search on Uber Eats and found this spot. I ordered quite a lot because they were running a special. Greens & Cabbage:9/10- Not well seasoned and had a kick but still good Mac n cheese: 5/10- wouldn't order this again. Too spicy for my liking and oily. Shrimp- 5/10- wouldn't order this again. Not sure if it was the restaurants mix up or Uber Eats. There was supposed to be a Hot Honey Jerk Option but no selection could be made. I called the restaurant to let them know I had placed an Uber Eats order and this is what I wanted. They told me the Hot Honey Jerk wasn't a thing but they could give me jerk sauce on the side. I was appreciative, however, when the food came there was no jerk sauce lol. I might've liked it better jerked. Oreos: 1/10- they were soggy by time I got them (understandable) and I didn't know they came with chocolate drizzle. I would probably order them inside but never again uber eats Rice & Peas- 10/10- DELICIOUS!! I mean I ate this by itself! Probably the best part of the meal Cornbread Muffin- 10/10- this was some of the best cornbread I've had. It was very soft and cake like. I wish I had ordered 2. Definitely would get this again and again. Next time I eat here I would go and sit inside to get a feel of the atmosphere because the staff was extremely nice over the phone .

My second visit and the food is consistently good. The restaurant is clean but nothing special in terms of atmosphere. Service is efficient and this time was super quick. The food is well prepared and delicious. I had the jerk wings not visits with the macaroni and cheese, which was wonderful, along with the greens and cabbage. I had a taste of my daughter's yams and they were fantastic. Glad to stop in for my second visit, and we will make this a regular stop when in the area!

Lemon Pepper Shrimp w/ Hot Honey Drizzle. Sides: rice and peas and honey cornbread

The service was great. We were welcomed when we walked in. We were served in a timely manner. The food was okay. It has a lot of potential to be greater. The oxtail sliders were good, but it didn't have any sweetness to it. It tasted like stewed brisket with melted cheese on a slider. I wish it had a slaw on it or a different flavor profile. The jerk chicken egg rolls tasted great on the first bite but not the rest. I understand that the chicken may have jerk seasoning, but the sauce was needed throughout the egg roll. I would ask for extra sauce next time. Also, the aioli was a little heavy on the mayo. The seasoning on the fries was great. I tried the shrimp from my friend's plate. It was cooked well, but I felt like there was something missing. Maybe it needed more sauce. Last, but not least, I tried the honey cornbread. It was amazing! It was moist and sweet. I would definitely go back just for the cornbread.

Food was good. The oxtail taco the cheese made it a bit salty. The keel shrimp taco flavorful n spiced right. The fried shrimp was ok. The Mac n cheese needed some flavor. Rice n beans compliment the spice n saltiness. The lemonades were delicious. Sweet little spot with a take out vibe. Service was friendly and didn't take too long. I would go back for those oxtail tacos!!!!

Jerk crab fries
Shaunie W.

The food was ok. We ordered the salmon with curry cabbage and fried rice, suga and spice wings and the oxtail sandwich (which isn't displayed on the menu) and jerk crab fries. The oxtail sandwich would've hit better if it didn't have so many BIG pieces of peppers and there weren't pieces of bone inside. There was also way more "gristle" than meat. The flavor was good however. Maybe consider adding the oxtail gravy on the side because my bread was super soggy and offer it on coco bread instead of a roll. The crab fried were really good just really spicy. They give a good amount of lump crab which you don't find at other places. Highly recommend these. The salmon dinner had good flavor, I didn't taste the fried rice (because who would he even order that lol). The suga & spice wings tastes like they fried it and put sweet chili sauce on it. I also ordered the mango cooler which was good. It tastes like a mango jumex. The service wasn't bad but it wasn't great either. They weren't mean or anything but their attitude was just "blah". The menu online and the menu in the restaurant have prices that don't match. It's only by $1 however they need to match. The place was clean as well as the restroom. He wants to go back, I don't because I don't think what we had was worth $100. The only thing worth the price in MY opinion were the crab fries.

Jerk Chicken Coco Bread Coco Sandwich
Larry H.

I came here with a friend to catch up and grab some delicious comfort food. Joy greeted us the minute we walked in with a cheerful and friendly vibe, and within two minutes, she ran down the entire menu like a pro. Even though it was dinnertime, I ordered the Coco Jerk Chicken Sandwich, and wow I was seriously surprised by the portion size. This might be the best $15.90 I've spent in a while. The fries? Seasoned with chili and Old Bay, crispy and flavorful. The chicken fillet had that perfect balance soft inside with a slight crunch, and seasoned just right. Next time I'm in the area, I'm definitely coming back.

I haven't been to the DMV in 20 years. So blessed to see a spot like this in my family's hometown. Put my father to rest last week. This was the comfort and healing I needed. Suga & Spice was an absolutely loving environment. Warm embrace, authentic Caribbean cooking. Antoine and his loving staff greeted me and chopped it up with a welcome informed conversation genuine condolences on my father's passing. Antoine and his whole team came out talk to me and laughed with me making me sure we feel welcome .Time and laughter heal all wounds, thank you, Suga & Spice.

Sunday 2/9/25 I made a takeout order online via toast and got the coco jerk chicken sandwich with/ fries & peach lemonade $15, fried chicken and Hawaiian French toast (Suga & spice sauced wings) $20, and the white chocolate bread pudding. My food was slated to be ready at 1:40 pm, but it wasn't ready until 1:48 pm. Also, I was really looking forward to the oxtail sliders, strawberry lemonade, and strawberry mango lemonade, but they were all sold out. - The coco jerk sandwich meal is the definition of VALUE due to the great bang for your buck. The jerk chicken sandwich was cheesy & messy, and it was still good, and they don't skimp on portions at all. - The seasoned fries were flat out awful: they tasted stale and old. You can just tell the fries weren't fresh. - The Peach lemonade, while not being my first or second option, turned out to be decent. - The Suga & spice fried wings were good. You get around 7x wings that are slightly sauced with the Suga & spice sauce, which reminds me of a specific Asian/Chinese type of sauce that I can't remember. Also, the wings would've been better if they were properly sauced. - The Hawaiian French toast is a very cool concept, but it suffered from an underwhelming execution. They're alright, but I honestly expected better. - The white chocolate bread pudding was delicious. It's a different type of bread pudding that's very moist & dense. You get a good portion of it, and it would be taken to another level with the addition of ice cream & a house-made bread pudding sauce like a praline sauce, but that's just me nitpicking, it's good as is. Overall, my experience at Suga & Spice was good and memorable, and what makes it even better is that it's a black owned business, which is great to see. I would be open to returning and recommending. I really want to go 5-star, but the disappointing fries and French toast are keeping me at a 4-star for now.

The service at Suga and Spice was amazing and the food was even better! I would definitely recommend. The music was nice and the ambience was fantastic.

S & S Wings with Crab Mac and Curry Cabbage
Jahaan T.

My coworkers and I ordered from here back in April. The food was just okay. I had the S & S wings which were pretty good. I just recommend not getting them deep fried since they're tossed. I also had the crab Mac and curry cabbage. I wish the Mac had the crab mixed in and was better seasoned. But I'd try again.

Hot Honey Salmon, Pepper Jack Mac & Cheese, Jerk Crab Fries
Kayla C.

I got a chance to try Suga & Spice this weekend! This restaurant is a Caribbean-Southern restaurant located in Hyattsville MD. I ordered the jerk crab fries, pepper jack mac and cheese with crab, and hot honey salmon with fried rice and a honey butter corn muffin. *Jerk crab fries 10/10: great presentation, seasoned well, lump crab meat (unlike other restaurants) *Pepper Jack Mac & cheese with crab meat. 10/10: seasoned to perfection, lump crab meat, cheesy. *hot honey salmon 9/10: the salmon tasted fresh, it was cooked to perfection (soft on inside yet seared on the outside) * atmosphere: reggae played throughout the restaurant and the staff was friendly and assisted me with my food selection.

Girls night turned full blown main character moment. The DJ understood the assignment and kept the vibe going with straight Lil Kim classics all night. When I tell you we took over the spot, I mean that in the best way possible. The energy was high, the music was right, and the whole place felt like our personal party. Now let's talk food. I ordered the Crack and Peel Seafood Boil and I enjoyed it immensely. Flavor was there, portion was solid, no problems. And listen... I'm obsessed with their wings...well, wings in general lol, but theirs definitely get an A+ from me. They're always a must for me. Service was actually really good too. Staff was attentive, kept up with our group, and didn't miss a beat even with all our extra energy in the building. If you're looking for a chill, quiet dinner...this might not be your Friday or Saturday night spot. But if you want good food, a fun crowd, and a whole vibe, Hook and Reel delivered.

I'm still fairly new to the area and had been wanting to try this location for a while, but it's usually been too busy during my previous visits. I stopped by yesterday for happy hour and ordered a seafood boil, and it ended up being one of the worst I've had. Something about it just seemed off, and the flavor was noticeably different from other locations I've visited. I'm not sure what went wrong, but it was disappointing. The only redeeming part of my visit were the happy hour drinks, which honestly made the meal a bit easier to get through. I was really hoping for a better experience and hope this was just an off day.

They give free samples for NEARLY ALL of their food, I mentioned I traveled to DC from CA, and the workers gave me a sample of one of everything on the menu! Gosh, I have never experienced such AMAZING customer service! My boyfriend loved the etouffee and my favorite was the gumbo sample. We were so stuffed from our previous dinner, and couldn't order more. We noticed everything on the menu was VERY affordable for DC pricing and gave good portions. We ended up opting for the bread pudding, and finished it in minutes. The bread pudding feels like a warm hug, and is a MUST with the ice cream. It has hints of nutmeg, cinnamon, and the bourbon perfectly balanced the creaminess and sweetness of the ice cream.

This place is NOT a Cajun/Louisiana Cuisine Restaurant. The interior and exterior appearances made me want to turn back around. However, I had already placed an online order. I found this establishment on GrubHub, and the reviews seemed promising, though that was not the case. I ordered the Hibachi Shrimp Fried Rice, Honey Habanero Wings, and a Seafood Boil. While the shrimp were larger than expected, the rice was a bit overcooked and was not hibachi-style. The party wings were tiny and lacked flavor. The kicker was the mushy seafood. The crab legs and shrimp were overcooked and mushy and ultimately inedible. This place also lacked indoor seating and sufficient parking. I had to park at the neighboring gas station as there were no parking spots available. Don't waste your time or money!
