Sybil's Bakery & Restaurant

Sybil’s was my second experience with Guyanese cuisine, and as a highly recommended spot, it certainly showed promise. The pricing was reasonable across the board, though the oxtail definitely sits at a higher price point than other dishes. The ability to grab a table and eat on-site was a nice plus, and I enjoyed the few bites I took before leaving. However, there are a couple of areas where the experience could be significantly improved for clarity and quality. However, the experience needs improvement in a few areas, starting with facilities: I did not see any visible customer restroom. Additionally, the service process needs clarity. The transparent ordering barrier seemed to cause issues with clear communication; I believe my server didn't hear me correctly, as I received four items

Kisses to the chef for inventing, the now legendary, PEPPERPOT PATTY. OMG amazing 10/10. The crust - flaky, buttery, soft. The meat inside - tenderism. Soon as you buss that ting open and the pepperpot smell hit you, there’s no going back. As a true Guyanese I can appreciate the authenticity of this patty. I also purchased fried fish, Mac & cheese and curry goat with white rice. My toddlers enjoyed the fish and mac. The fish is fresh & crunchy. The curry goat was decent. Definitely would recommend this restaurant if you’re looking for authentic GT food. There’s a plethora of options.

I ordered from Uber Eats. Spent well over $80. The food had flavor. That’s the only positive thing I can say. I feel robbed of the serving size. I order 2 containers of curry. When the food arrived, the curry came with rice and beans. This is not how it is advertised on Uber Eats. 3/4 of the container is rice and peas, and 5 pieces of chicken curry sprinkled on top. That isn’t how Guyanese cuisine is customarily served. This is more like Jamaican food. I thought I was buying enough curry to provide left overs. There was none. Because the curry came on a bed of rice, there was no gravy- so the roti I bought was pointless. Perhaps the food description on the Uber Eats app needs to be updated by the restaurant to provide better representation of what you will actually receive. I also ordered

The pastries are really good but I am yet to have a lunch special from here. The service is quick and the price is reasonable. We have had the salary, cheese rolls and pine tarts without complaints. They are fresh hot and tasty.

Delicious tarts. Very reasonable prices and helpful staff. I tried 3 of the tarts; guava, pineapple, and cheese. All of the tarts were flaky and delicious. The cheese tart was surprisingly spicy and savory. For three tarts was $4.50 which is reasonable. Cash and credit are both accepted. No public bathroom available. Very limited spaces inside so not a dine-in location, but more of a takeaway spot. They do offer food for lunch and dinner and are open early for breakfast. However, there are limited options when going early like I did, which was around 8:30 AM. Definitely would come back and try more of the food. 01/2025
