    Curry goat, rice and peas and plantains

    Curry goat was very good and they give u big portions. The jerk chicken was oven baked and had sauce on it. Im used to dry jerk chicken so to me it was really just bbq chicken.

    Oxtail, Rice And Peas, Steamed Cabbage
    Barry S.

    Hot and fast service. The oxtails were good they could have been a little more tender, fall off the bone but they were still good. The gravy has a good Caribbean flavor to it.

    Had Mayne Dish today....have reviewed their food before and generally liked it....today this is $27 dollars of undercooked oxtail...super fatty that wasn't cooked long enough to render and the meat itself had the considtency of well done steak...I also got goat which also wasn't tender or juicy but at least had flavor....asked and ordered extra gravy AND paid for and had a line line of gravy that looked like they used a big spoon and scooped a spoonful threw it on the rice and called it a day....very sloppy and lazy 2.3 out of 10 and 1000% waste of money

    You know that feeling when you get to the end of what you're eating and you're sad that it's finished? The aroma and the flavors have all hit the perfect spot and you wish that all of the food you eat could be this good, all the time-that's the way you feel after you eat here. It's so good! Show them some love if you're in the neighborhood. You'll be glad you did!

    We had very high expectations based on other reviews and agreed that the food was good. It wasn't the best we've had, but it definitely was good. The portions are great for the price, and the coco bread was so fresh and delicious. There aren't many places to sit and eat, so it's more of a take out spot, but you do have the option if you want to eat there.

    Rasta Pasta

    I used to order the Rasta Pasta from the food truck/stand on Rt.13 in New Castle; it was delicious! I traveled to the store on Kirkwood Hwy, since the stand has closed for the winter. The pasta tasted nothing like the truck - it was bland and lacked jerk seasoning or flavor. On top of that, I ordered ahead, and it was not ready for another 30 minutes after the designated pickup time. I was told that they had to send someone to the store to get the pasta!! So disappointing.

    Oxtail extra gravy
    Nia S.

    I was actually impressed! I didn't think Delaware had good Jamaican food. I ordered the beef pattie and oxtail with a rice & peas, cabbage and plantain. Everything tasted really good. The oxtail could have been a little more tender but good overall.

    Grilled jerk, chicken wings

    The food at this food truck is so delicious. The wings are grilled to perfection. I highly recommend this location.

    The menu
    Desmond H.

    This used to be a good restaurant that an older lady ran. She was kind and made great food. Since it changed hands, maybe 3 years now, it has been vastly upgraded. For instance, I now want to sit down and eat with my family. The owners have changed the decor to make it more contemporary and inviting. Other good changes include steadier hours and quicker service. I might have to visit this place more often to try out more of the menu. Speaking in the menu, my entree selection was good. It makes me want to come back by the hot temperature and delicious taste. I had the Oxtails and they were pretty expensive but worth it. The small meal is really enough for two. I wasn't thinking it was going to be that big and it was a pleasant surprise. I recommend this restaurant for your Jamaican fix if you're in the Newport area.

    Jamaican Rum Cake
    Barbara Ann S.

    Staff, service and smiles baby! This place does it all. Located kind of on the side where you just might miss it, this is my go to Jamaican place. The staff are always extremely sweet and attentive. I got the jerk chicken which was the PERFECT amount of seasoning. I even added more hot sauce! The rum cake is religious! Tastes so euphoric, and it's dense but a great amount. Don't miss out! You will regret it!

    Large oxtail
    Su A.

    Both of these are Large. $19 each. If you look at the pictures , the portions are different. The picture that has the fork in it was perfect as far as the portions. The other meal had too much rice and less oxtails. The oxtails fell off the bone and the rice and cabbage were alright. .

    This one chicken leg cut into 3 pieces is not worth $11. Never will I return and the customer service is extremely poor and rude!

    Beautiful dinner. I love to cook and I get so disappointed when we go to dinner and it's just…read moresub-par. I can say without a doubt that the Chef at Eclipse LOVES to cook and cares about what he/she puts on a plate. Amazing food. Husband had the pork chop and was beyond pleased with his food. Had a maple bacon glaze - need I say more....and was cooked to perfection; seared and caramelized on the outside, but juicy inside. I had the chicken dish and it was equally amazing. The skin was rendered and so crunchy AND meat was so tender. Was sitting in a perfect lemony sauce, served with super crunchy potatoes. Also, the staff was so personable and attentive. Just a pleasure. We are in Delaware from Ft Lauderdale, and are so thankful for Yelp reviews. They led us to Eclipse and we are SO HAPPY they did. Thank you Eclipse Bistro for a memorable, beautiful dinner!

This is a lovely spot for a special occasion because they give you a giant sparkler for the guest of honor at the end of your meal. It's an intimate restaurant. I loved the unique lights at the tables that felt like taper candles. I'm not sure if it's because of what we ordered, but wait times were really long. It took about an hour for us to get our entrees. Thankfully we were in good company. And our party enjoyed their cocktails. We started with the brussels and cauliflower. This was beyond delicious. You have to order this as a starter. They had a quail special and monkfish special the evening we were there. The birthday girl ordered the quail. It took about an hour to arrive and came undercooked. Thankfully they were kind about cooking it more. I think she enjoyed it once she got to eat. Her husband got the pork chops. I shared the monkfish with a friend and really enjoyed it. We also got the seared tuna for the table and that was good too. Our waitress was super kind especially with the food hiccups. They have one gender neutral restroom stall. It has the prettiest wallpaper. We were stuffed by the time the dessert menus came out. Thankfully they still gave us a mini scoop of ice cream for the birthday girl with a sparkler. It was lots of fun. I think wait times were long for the specials and if we stuck to the regular menu things would've arrived faster. I'd go back to try more yummy food.

During our visits, we had the pan seared salmon, grilled pork chop, crab eggrolls and fried mozzarella. The salmon and pork chop were delicious! The eggrolls had a great crab flavor and a sauce that had a slight kick. There is inside and outside seating. I recommend River Rock Kitchen if you are staying at the hotel or in the area.
