I ordered here all the time for parties and personal. The service and food is the best Guyanese food in Brooklyn.

Very spot on. Good prices too. I ordered the Guyanese chicken curry with Roti. It had reminded of my late uncle Saleem from GT. God rest his soul. Almost wanted to cry for a moment, tasted like childhood... I can still hear him say Koff hard! Will visit again!

Love the Guyanese patties! They are fresh, soft, well seasoned & the right meat to crust ratio! The pinetart guava tart cheese rolls salara cheesestraw & roti skins are very good, compared to others I've tried. Been going here for decades. Haven't had the cooked food recently, but it's usually good. Call to see if they are open on Sundays. The few times I tried, they weren't.

This is no frills fast casual dining with a very clean inside and a decent amount of seating. The service is quick. They run out of their plantains so be ready with a back up for side options. The prices to portions are great, I paid $15 for oxtail and $11 for goat curry. One dish is definitely enough to fill you up. The only thing I'd change is I wish the oxtail leaned in to the taste of the beef more with a stronger, more savory flavor instead of cinnamony sweet. I also wish the guava tarts had more filling and were softer.

Those 2 Guys at the front serving have great Customer Service. Omg. Love them. What made me felt special was when I went back there 3 days later, they remembered me. Nice and tasty foods. I ordered Guyanese style Chicken Patties, Butter Flap, Pine Tarts, Chowmein and Cook up Rice with chicken. Now I'm dribbling...lol

Rich and rendered oxtail and tasty fried fish. The hot sauce is peppery and very strong.

We came in as a party of 6 and didn't really know what we wanted. The staff were patient and attentive, and very friendly. The food was similarly fantastic, highly recommended for anyone who likes Caribbean food.
