★★★★★ 5.0 Arthur Morris · Nov 2025

De Islands is one of the best Caribbean fast casual restaurants around. I've been to this location and one in Brooklyn and the food is consistent. Always seasoned well, the stew chicken has just enough spice for flavor but not enough to scare off young children as my youngest love it. Fried porgies are seasoned well and always fresh. One of the rare places that has both fresh mauby and sorrel. Parking at this location is difficult due to a small lot but definitely worth getting a plate.

The jerk chicken is AMAZING! I kid you not. It’s so juicy and tasty. I literally have it once/twice a week! I need to try other things but the jerk chicken has me in a chokehold. It may be the best jerk I had in a while

★★★★★ 5.0 Argenis Gomez · Sep 2025

Just had the oxtail with rice and peas at De Island Jamaican Restaurant and wow… it was so good! The oxtail was super tender and full of flavor, and the gravy over the rice and peas tied everything together perfectly. Big portions, great taste, and the kind of food that makes you feel like you’re at home. Definitely recommend this spot if you’re craving real Jamaican food.

It's a Caribbean restaurant. So, if you like Caribbean food, you can go and eat. The restaurant is clean, neat, and a good place to sit in. You can smell the Caribbean spice and taste here.
