  1. The Pumpkin Rice is a good choice along with the J-Chicken(Yum Yum), do not forget about the fresh fruit Rum-P (Don't DWI-MTA it).
  2. It is good to know that you can get good food at great prices.

Good price/Good food

by worldjudah at Citysearch

It is good to know that you can get good food at great prices. As one may very well know, New York City is an expensive town especially in the broadway district. If you have the time to (K)(prior to show time/3hours) and want a reasonablely priced bite to eat, Try Caribbean Spice. The Pumpkin Rice is a good choice along with the J-Chicken(Yum Yum), do not forget about the fresh fruit Rum-P (Don't DWI-MTA it).

  • Pros: Good Spicy Flavor
  • Cons: Long, Long wait

Ordered lunch at 11:09am, food showed up at 12:57PM....how long is that? 1 hour and 48 minutes! Finally sit down to eat & container is broken and all the gravy leaked out. Okay, at this point I am starving and the wood on the table was starting to look good. I was so disappointed = ( Why o Why? it was greasy and did not taste like curry. It was that yellow fake curry like tumeric or fake saffron. It was horrible. The roti was dry, hard and bland. This place needs to close up shop and go back home. Where ever that may be.....it sure is not the West Indies! Don't you think a true West Indian would know! Yes, I am...don't tell me I don't know what I am talking about. I eat this stuff for breakfast with Ma's pepper sauce from Trinidad.

Signed,

True West Indian Gyal
