Jamaica Cabana Restaurant

So first I wanna preface my review by saying the service was really good and the staff was super friendly with providing me recommendations. The food was fresh and flavorful and I ended up getting the oxtails combo. The only con was that the oxtails I received were very bone heavy so there wasn’t a lot of meat at all. I think next time I’ll try their strew chicken or another entree.

I’ve been meaning to try this place for a while. The food was pretty good. One reason I didn’t give 5 stars is I would’ve preferred more oxtail for $20 (medium plate) and also more than one piece of plantain. I also think $5 for a patty is excessive, but I know there aren’t many options around for Jamaican food and it definitely satisfied my craving. The service I had was excellent, no issues there. I was even able to call ahead to place my order and then pick up quickly. I like that they sell other items - I got some soup packets and there were seasonings, tea, and other items for sale as well. I’m sure I’ll be back the next time I’m feeling for oxtail.

This Caribbean eatery in the Dallas area is a hidden gem, offering great outdoor dining options and mouthwatering food. If you're in the area, it's definitely worth checking out!

Food was good. It’s a small space, so be prepared to take out. The owner was great and very accommodating. A few of customers were there ordering at the same time, be prepared to wait a little bit if this happens. There is parking provided, for about 4-5 cars at a time. Like I said it’s a pick up and go vibe. There are also some Jamaican favorites available to buy in store like pepper sauces, browning and jerk seasoning.

Hidden 💎. I live in North Texas area pass Dallas but I do work back in Dallas at times and I found a hidden gem today and my NEW lunch spot. Being able to eat Great Island Food outside my kitchen with decent prices I appreciate it!!! That Curry goat with the rice and peas, cabbage, SWEET plantaind. Vita Malts and Beef Patte on the side made my day!!
