Bear with me here; maybe this goes out into the abyss but I'm still gonna say it…read more Years & years ago I was wandering around the area & came upon Island Krave. It was brand new & the woman tending the store was friendly, energetic & passionate about the food she was serving. I ordered jerk chicken but she insisted on letting me have a taste of everything on the menu. Everything was delicious & I now had a new obsession- the sweet coco bread. For years after that whenever I was around I would pop in. I've since moved to GA and been living here for almost ten years. Any transplant will tell you sometimes only family & food keep you tethered to your home state. So happens this wknd I was in town for my sisters wedding & got my hair done a couple blocks away from Island Krave. As she finished up I placed an order on Uber eats, really excited for this meal- something familiar & missed. To see how the quality & care has declined truly hurts my heart. The portion of meat they served me was actually disrespectful to people who work hard for their money & choose to support a small business. These pictures are after they added some. If you're going to chop it to smitherens you need to measure it out to ensure the portions make sense. Anyone that cooks can tell you this is a thigh at best. & this is a $17 plate. I don't want to talk down on the place too much it's just sad how much of a let down the entire meal was after I felt like they threw my stuff together thinking it was being delivered and they wouldn't have to look me in the face. The Mac was good & the flavor of the chicken was as well. Cabbage mushy & salty. Rice is not yellow. & apparently $5 gets you one slice of coco bread now (I got two bc of my troubles, ha!) Idk I hope they can figure it out but personally I would never spend another dollar in this place.

Honestly if you want me to be honest... I literally went to Venezuela eating the meal I had. Let's…read moretalk about the portion. This plate it would have cost $60 at a seafood restaurant. Dude, I paid $23 and I had more than 4 shrimps compared to other restaurants when they serve you their "seafood platter". You know exactly what I'm talking. Anyway, I have not gone out to eat in a while so my fiance found Maracaibo Bistro and it most definitely did not disappoint! He had Bandeja Paisa. His plate. Overflowing with sausage, ground beef, chicharron, chorizo, arepa, +$1 for grilled steak served on top of rice and beans with sweet plantains. Food? Forget about it, scarfed that down like it was for breakfast! So if you like authentic food, GO! Overall experience and satisfaction were both fulfilled! P.S. I bought their Paella to go. We have food for a couple of days!

Whether you are looking for a great selection of Caribbean groceries or a quick bite to eat I recommend stopping by.

I found this place on Yelp, and it was a 10 minute walk from our hotel. My husband is Puerto Rican and makes pretty good mofongo, but this was better than his (sorry babe!). I have not ever had Puerto Rican food this good or this authentic outside of my in-laws house or when we were actually in Puerto Rico. We started with the Rican Sampler -- tostones (fried plantain), beef empanadas, beef alcapurria (plantain paste with ground beef, fried), and some fried chicken bites. All of it was delicious! For the main course, I had the chicken mofongo and my husband had the shrimp mofongo. Our son had 2 Chuletas con Arroz y Habichuelas (fried pork chops with beans and rice). Everything was amazing. The portions were huge (I had enough mofongo leftover to have it for lunch the next day). We are going to try to go back before we leave because I really want to try their Cuban sandwich!

I was so excited to finally try it. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing. When my husband got home with the food, we realized one of the dinners was missing. When he called the restaurant, they went back and forth with him, insisting he had the item and confusing it with a veggie tray. It was very frustrating and unprofessional. I drove all the way back from my home in Chesapeake to resolve the issue. While there, I also returned the glory greens because they were clearly not fresh or properly prepared. I asked to swap them for cabbage, but the cabbage wasn't fully cooked. After waiting an additional 10 minutes, they asked if I would prefer a refund instead. I then had to wait another five minutes just to receive the refund. Throughout the entire interaction, the staff was rude and showed no empathy for the inconvenience -- especially considering I had to drive all the way back after my husband had already brought dinner home. Overall, this was a horrible experience, and sadly, the food was even worse. I truly wanted to love this place, but I will not be returning
