Because this group is broad, judging a listing on freshness, turnover and how consistent recent reviews are tends to work better than judging by decor or price range alone. Most kitchens in Hempstead will adjust a dish for common dietary needs like gluten-free or vegetarian if you ask when ordering. Hours vary widely: diners and fast-food chains often stay open late or around the clock, while bakeries and cafes tend to open early and close mid-afternoon. Catering and food delivery businesses in New York usually require advance notice, from a day for a small order up to a week or more for a large event, so it is worth contacting them early.

Hours are published for 7 days a week. On most of those days it is open 8 am–9:30 pm. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible.

Just nasty! My food was undercooked and the rice was just bland. Nothing I ordered had taste. When I called the store the owner I assume he was immediately told me nothing was wrong with my chicken and his food is never undercooked until I asked to send him photos and he felt silly when he saw for himself that it was. Don’t waste your money. Truly disappointed. You don’t even get a side with the order like most Jamaican restaurants no cabbage, no plantains just rice and protein. Take my advice don’t order.

While the food is really good , the lady at the front has a bad attitude . I come here often for lunch and the prices keep Changing . Today I ordered bbq chicken (1 leg and 1 wing ) with white rice … $11.46. For the same order I paid $8.32 before (2x) for the food given it is not worth the price of almost $12 .

Great customer service plus they give you large portions. So be careful. A small is a medium and a medium is a large, and a large is XXL. I highly recommend the curry chicken. Flavorful beyond belief!

Prices are good, but not the best representation of Jamaican food... worst rasta pasta I have ever had, fish was dry and tasteless, stews are weak, etc The best thing are the juices, but check the dates; I got one that I didn't realize was expired and I got sick; they had the audacity not to want to return my money... just an exchange... anyway, I'm good. Try it for yourself, but I'm good.

Tropical Jerk never disappoints! I’ve been here multiple times, and every time, the food is on point. The jerk chicken has the perfect balance of spice and smokiness, and the oxtail is always tender and flavorful. You can tell they put love into their cooking. The portions are solid, and the plantains are a must-have. The staff is cool and welcoming, making the experience even better. If you’re craving real Jamaican food, this is the spot!
