Island Quizine - Silver Spring

The food is solid, dem cyan cook! I went here enroute to the airport as I had a good amount of time to do so. My friend said it was a good Caribbean and so I was intrigued to know how things would taste. The cashier was smiley and friendly. As I was in a chicken mode, I ordered red wine bbq chicken with rice and peas, which came with cabbage and two strips of plantain. I ordered a portion of plantain in addition to this which made my total $35. It sounds quite steep admittedly, especially it was a chicken meal, but hey. The food didn’t take too long to come, about 10 mins or so from ordering which is decent. I decided to eat in in the end, and glad i did to fully enjoy the food. The food tasted amazing, the flavours were top tier, the only thing I’d say is that it could have been hotter

The lady at the counter was fairly nice and made suggestions. It was my 1st and last time here. I'm a vegetarian so I usually just order sides when I dine out but this place happened to have tofu so I gave it a try. It was disgusting but this isn't the only place with terrible tofu, I was most upset about the mac and cheese and supposed cabbage. As you can see per the pictures it looks like coleslaw without sauce instead of cabbage and the Mac and cheese looks and taste like something out of a box. I usually don't leave bad reviews, if I don't like a place I just never go back, but because I drove 20 minutes to get here and paid over $30 for my stuff I felt the need to. I ate as much as I could before throwing it out.

THANK YOU Island Quizine for an AMAZING birthday celebration dinner. You made catering the event so easy. You were delightful and flexible to work with in creating a proposal. Your onsite team was kind, gracious, and so competent. They transformed my kitchen into a beautiful display! The food was beyond scrumptious!! Every single guest RAVED about the food, and many took cards, so I hope you will get more business! Your services were everything I hoped for and more. THANK YOU again!

I normally visit this restaurant about once a month, and because it’s an hour away for me, I usually spend over $200 each time I come. I genuinely enjoy the food, which is why I make the drive. However, this last visit was disappointing. I ordered jerk chicken and curry chicken, and instead of drumsticks, thighs, or breast pieces, we were given cubed meat without any notice. That’s not the standard cut most customers expect when ordering chicken, and it should absolutely be communicated beforehand. To make matters worse, my husband ate the curry chicken and had an upset stomach for two days afterward. I’m not sure if this was just an off day, but it definitely raised concerns for us. I’m leaving this review because I’ve been a consistent customer and I want to keep supporting the busine

Tasty garlic shrimp. Sides were great - cabbage, rice and beans, carrots, plantains They didn't have coconut shrimp when I visited.
