Island Fest

My husband saw this place on TikTok so here I go again trying another Jamaican restaurant. First thing when u walk in no smell that’s a definite 🤦🏽‍♀️. If ur a Jamaican you get it. Anyway decided to try it anyway because I was already there. My husband ordered curry chicken. I got this combination or oxtail and curry goat. I also got a beef patty and coco bread. Coco bread was spot on, hot and soft. Let’s get to the food. Presentation was spot on. I would say for what I paid for that combo wasn’t worth the price. For the food it’s just ok. Something tastes like they put sugar in it cause the gravy was sweet. Oxtail was a little salty. My husband curry chicken was dry and that’s probably because it was not cut up like curry chicken. If u know u know.

The service is amazing, as soon as you walk in a great big smile greats you and the smell is amazing. The music is fantastic the atmosphere is amazing and chill. Ordered the curry goat and am in love, half way through the plate was full but couldn’t stop myself from indulging. The mango lemonade is also fantastic. 10/10 would recommend and definitely delicious! Going to come back

We are so glad we came here for dinner today! Food was delicious, the lady out front is super sweet! I’m actually surprised that the restaurant was not fuller than it was, I did see the majority of customers taking the food to go! We tried the oxtail, jerk chicken, fried catfish, Mac and cheese, yellow rice and the rice and peas and all of it was amazing! Definitely coming back!

Oxtails used to be very good, but The last 2 times The meat was dry and salty. I want to support this restaurant but the food was not good at all. I dont know what happened to this place. I used to love them, but I won't be going again.

Had a wonderful experience at Island Fest. The service was quick, kind and accurate. I got oxtail, Mac n cheese, coco bread, jerk chicken patty and Pinapple ginger juice and everything was very good. The portion sizes for the oxtail were very generous compared to other places I’ve been and the oxtail was very tender and well seasoned. I would recommend this spot to anyone looking to get good Jamaican food!
