My husband and I saw Trini House as we were driving through - we immediately turned around to see what it was all about...it's everything Tampa has been missing since many of the Trini restaurants around Tampa have closed!
Doubles were hot, fresh, and tasty! 10/10! We immediately ordered more after finishing our first order.
It's been so long since I've had hot and fresh pholourie - sauces were incredible too.
We have had Trinidadian food from some other places in the area and Orlando, and Trini House is by far the best. It is very clear the family that runs the restaurant cares deeply about quality, authenticity, and making hot and fresh food. Many Caribbean restaurants take the route of making large batches and letting them sit in a buffet - I hope that never changes at Trini House even as they become successful and popular.
I also loved that they were playing recent soca throughout the restaurant (Kes, Bunji, Machel), had the typical Caribbean sodas and juices, and even sold Chief curry powder!! No more stuffing curry bags in suitcases on the way back from Trinidad!
We will definitely be back to try some of the curry dishes and bake and shark. It will be hard not to get the doubles every time! read more
