We got the asun, jollof rice, swallow. The meats on these dishes were just all bone.... Portion size was tiny given the price. Swallow is basically non flavored mashed potatoes that's like in a ball. Also when we got there, the doors are all locked and we had to ring the bell multiple times. The take out area is tiny and we did not really feel welcome... we drove 30+ minutes for this. This will probably be our first and last time here.

You can really taste the quality and authentic Caribbean influence in the dishes. The portions were satisfying, the presentation was on point, and every bite had that bold, seasoned flavor you want from good Caribbean food. The atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable, making it a great spot to sit down, enjoy a good meal, and relax. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience at Dunns River. Great food, great flavors, and definitely a place I'd recommend checking out! They also have an after hours vibe like Caribbean music, it's very natural vibe!

My original rating for this restaurant was 5 stars, and that wasn't given lightly. I had been here…read moresix times before, and every visit was lively, welcoming, and consistently delicious. The Ropa Vieja was my go-to order, and I genuinely loved this place. Unfortunately, today's visit was a completely different experience & I damn near thought I went to an entirely different establishment. From the moment I walked in, something felt off. The atmosphere was noticeably different, and I don't even recall hearing music. The young man behind the counter seemed to be looking for ingredients, which should have been my first sign to turn around and choose somewhere else. Instead, I stayed because I trusted my previous experiences. This time, I ordered the Cuban nachos and 2 chicken empanadas. When I opened the tray in my car, I was honestly shocked. The nachos were simply chips, melted cheese, and cilantro aioli. There were no jalapeños, no pickled onions, and no fresh cilantro, which were all toppings that are supposed to come with the dish. I never asked for any of them to be excluded. The empanada was another disappointment. The small empanadas they used to serve were delicious. Now, they've been replaced with much larger empanadas containing a filling that tasted more like a generic "chicken-like" mixture than the quality I remembered. I'm genuinely saddened by this experience because this used to be my go-to spot whenever I was craving Ropa Vieja. After six previous visits, I had every reason to expect the same quality I had always enjoyed. I don't know if there has been a change in management, recipes, or staff, but something has definitely changed. Unfortunately, based on today's experience, I won't be returning. It's disappointing to lose a place I once rated five stars and happily recommended.

From the attitude to the lack of love put into the food. As for the Humming bird it needs help in many ways. The cleanliness is lacking, people should see clean tables and no leftover rice grains on the floor left from previous customers. The greetings and mannerisms are lacking as well. I shouldn't feel like I'm getting into an altercation with the cashier. As for the food it's lacking the love from the beautiful island called JAMAICA . When establishments get comfortable they forget what it took for them to open those doors. The hard nights of labor that open those doors, the love of cooking some amazing food, the introduction of bringing the elements of Jamaica. As for the order was an oxtail with rice and peas, and cabbage. Also an order of curry chicken with same sides as the oxtail. The oxtail wasn't tender enough the seasoning a bit on the salty side. The curry chicken tasted as leftovers from the previous day. Again it starts with the kitchen and owners have to be held responsible to the full extent. Either get it together for Tampa needs carribean restaurants or shut down and reevaluate the love once was that represented Jamaica.

The sorrullito de maíz (fried corn fritter with cheese inside for my Anglo friends) is always a favorite. Just the right amount of sweet fried perfectly. As it was dinner time I couldn't get my favorite breakfast items so I went hardcore: Fried pork chops, white rice and Tostones. I was very pleasantly surprised at how nice the presentation was for essentially a non moving food truck. The food looked great and tasted even better. The rice was a bit hard but besides that all was perfect. My wife had grilled chicken with arroz con gandules (yellow rice with pigeon peas) and maduros. Also was a hit. And best part was there was more than enough for left overs. So happy to know we have really good PR food close by. The service was ok but I guess that's the express part. Courteous but quick. It's in Krate so seating is outside and depending on weather and crowd; could be crazy but always a good time.
