    Itis!! Food coma!! This will be your result after eating from Tev's Kitchen. You're looking at Oxtail, Rice, Mac 'n cheese and Cabbage. I also purchased Wings, something I don't normally order. I saw the glistening sauce on a wing someone was eating, and I was curious. Don't skip on the cabbage. It's so tasty and perfecrly spicy which made it hard to stop eating. I purchased this order to go, arriving home over an hour later. I did not warm the food, and dove into the oxtail. They were small but plentiful, perfectly seasoned and the meat fell off the bone becoming addicting. I ate a couple of the tender wings and used the sauce as lipstick. Finger licking good. You'll love the wings . The Mac 'n Cheese will be your demise. It was tepid by the time I got home, but with every bite it was richer and more indulgent. Each bite was gooey, creamy and felt like a warm hug. I can only imagine how rich it would taste hot. I also loved the diversity of people in the restaurant. So many different cultures coming to share a meal. Good food brings people together. Parking is difficult but you'll find it. If you're lucky, you'll see the house with the cats and chickens.

    Receipt for lamb but order of salmon... Minor mistake but I do want my lamb chops please.

    $80- almost 90 for a salmon somebody gotta reach out to ya boy and get this solved though I ain't went back since family

    Caribbean soul food restaurant with delicious food and generous portions. Service was friendly The menu is small so it was easy to choose what we wanted to try. We had four platters and it was so much food-oxtail, goat curry, jerk chicken and fried (boneless) chicken. Love the bold flavors of the food here. Every platter was served with mac & cheese, rice and peas, cabbage and fried plantains plus sweet iced kool aid. The oxtail was AMAZING and the jerk chicken was some of the best I've tried. The oxtail was very tender in a savory sauce that went really well over the rice and beans. The jerk chicken was well seasoned with a great smoky flavor. The goat curry was meaty and flavorful. The fried boneless chicken was good but I loved everything rise even more. The mac and cheese is so good too and I wish my stomach had more room. Definitely recommend Tex's kitchen!

    Jerk & garlic sauces weren't needed.

    Nice covered patio area outside to eat and a few booths inside. Security guard is on site. Second visit and Tev's does not disappoint. Service was straight to the point. Enjoyed steak, mac n cheese and broccoli. A complementary cup of Koolaid was a nice treat.

    Tevs kitchen is a must have when in la and looking to just hang out! food is heavy so that's why i say on a chill day lol but nonetheless very good, exceptionally good at that everything was amazing from the jerk chicken to the short ribs! The sides now they're on a level all alone just delicious!! service was great, super friendly and inviting they do triple check when using a credit card for online orders so please make sure to have the card handy and ID they do not mess around !

    Tev's & Family Kitchen is pure comfort food done right. The plate was loaded with tender, fall-apart meat that was slow-cooked to perfection--rich, deeply seasoned, and full of flavor in every bite. The mac and cheese was creamy, cheesy, and baked just right, while the cabbage and sides balanced everything out with that homemade, soul-food touch. Portions are generous and filling, and you can really taste the love and care put into the food. Nothing feels rushed or generic--this is the kind of meal that reminds you of a family kitchen, not a fast takeout spot. If you're looking for hearty, satisfying soul food that hits every time, Tev's & Family Kitchen is absolutely worth the stop.

    Jerk chicken and wings plate

    Tev's Kitchen This food is so good, it honestly reminds me of my childhood. I grew up eating Belizean food and occasionally jerk chicken, so this was everything for me. The flavors are incredible, rich, bold, and so comforting. Easily 100/10 The plates are always packed to the rim, like they do not hold back The price ranges from about $30-$45, but it's absolutely worth it. One plate can literally last you three days, which makes it such a good value. I would highly recommend Tev's Kitchen and I can't wait for more locations to open up near me Please give this a like if this was helpful

    Got this Cajun steak pasta from Tev's Kitchen and it was absolutely amazing. I believe it's a jerk pasta although I am not a fan of jerk I don't feel like it gave jerk flavor. I feel like it's just a very well seasoned Cajun kind of pasta. The steak was good, it wasn't chewy. It wasn't hard. The salmon was good. The salmon was really good. The sauce was good wasn't too creamy really flavorful big portion ate some for lunch dinner and then lunch the next day very pricey, it was $40. Would I have it again absofreakinlutely.

    I'd been wanting to try this place for a while but was a little hesitant about spending $42 on an oxtail plate. I'm all for supporting Black-owned businesses, but the price gave me pause. I ordered online early and was number seven, so I didn't have to wait outside, which was definitely a plus. When I arrived, it took a few minutes to be acknowledged, and I was redirected a couple of times without clear communication. I expected an ID check, but the process felt excessive: having to show my email, ID, credit card, and then Apple Pay. I wouldn't have even been able to place the order or show up without matching info, so it felt a bit unnecessary. That said, I'm aware they do give a generous portion, and the food was good. However, I've had comparable oxtail plates in LA for less, so while I'm glad I finally got to try it, I'm not sure I'd go out of my way for it again.

    Goat curry is BOMB omg
    Diana L.

    Their goat curry and cabbage are SO DIVINE!~ This was my first time having goat curry, and I hesitated because I never had goat, usually I don't like "gamey" meat like lamb. I'm so glad I took the leap to try it at Tev's because I fell in LOVE! The curry is so delicious, the aroma is still dancing on my taste buds even through the Kool Aid. That's just amazing. Oxtail was also flavorful, fall off the bone tender. Cabbage is a must have. My husband wondered how they made it so tasty. I wish I had more stomach so I can eat more. Portions are huge, so I have food for days! Staff were so friendly and welcoming, you feel like family. Will definitely stop by whenever I'm in LA!

    Oxtail, Mac & Cheese, Cabbage, Plantain.

    This is the best Jamaican food I have ever eaten in my life and I'm not even sure how much better it can get than this. Insanely delicious mac and cheese and tender oxtail. Just go eat here man. It's hella expensive but worth it. 9.5/10.

Fried Chicken with green beans and mashed potatoes. 2. Meatloaf with rice and gravy and cabbage. 3. Fried chicken dinner with greens, macaroni and cheese, and dressing with gravy.

The only two issues were the cabbage wasn't seasoned well and needed to be cooked longer. Also the cornbread was not sweet and was reheated in a microwave. Overall all of us enjoyed our meal!

But it wasn't over cooked so it could be saved. Glad I checked my order because it wasn't correct. I ordered the dinner plate with 3 sides. The rice and gravy(barely any gravy), greens were undercooked, cabbage (mistakenly placed in the container) under cooked & Mac n cheese no flavor and kinda of mushy. The peach cobbler is usually better tasting. But yesterday it was missing something. Maybe they changed the cook. I was highly disappointed after paying close to $40.

Greens & Black eyed peas (this time) I had not stepped foot inside this hidden gem until yesterday. But when I did...my nose was violently assaulted the the aroma of someone's "Big Momma's or Grandfather's" kitchen. The cozy, warm, aromatic atmosphere engulfed us like a warm quilt, as we walked in from the rain. The gentleman we passed outside by the door walked in behind us and welcomed us as if we were expected for Sunday dinner at Big Momma's House! No, that is NOT the name of this magical kitchen, but maybe it... No, it is even appropriately named. I dont know what the "R" stands for, maybe its a play on the Southern dialect, for "Our?" or does it stand for someone's name? I'm sure the meaning of the "R" has everything to do with why the meal I have become so overwhelmingly familiar with is so consistently "Smack a Momma" good. Now, I'm not a professional food critic. But, I know my way around a few pots and skillets. I'm just an average Kentucky-raised, over-60, consistently looking for a good meal when I get hungry, don't feel like cooking or understands when my wife doesn't feel like cooking either, type of guy. Being country bred, from country folk, from a 1 traffic light, 1 cop car, outhouses still on the side or back of the houses; everyone knows everyone kinda town. I don't look for a Michelin Star restaurants, I just want a good cooked meal. Food that has been kissed by the ancestors of whoever goes outta their way to put their creations out to the public with no shame in their game or plates. My wife actually turned me on to "R-Kitchen"- in Lakewood. Her and her friends were out a while ago and called me at home asking if I wanted to try this kitchen's cooking. After 5 wife deliveres plates (all the smothered turkey wings) throughout several months, I finally experienced the personal down-home touch and smells of Lakewood's R-Kitchen. I've promised myself to explore the entire menu by ordering something different on each visit going forward. So, stay tuned, as I work off my last meal to make room for the next. In the meantime, drop by this gem of a kitchen and don't leave without grabbing a slice of that Lemon Cake!!!! ssshhhh!... someone told me they have a Gumbo Day!!!!
