Curry's Caribbean Kitchen and Bar offers authentic Caribbean cuisine and vibrant hand crafted cocktails in our lively, tropical atmosphere. Our menu features dishes from across the Caribbean, including Jamaica, Trinidad, and Afro-Guyanese paired with a curated selection of Caribbean beers and cocktails. Located in Historic Jackson Ward in Richmond VA, we are here to offer RVA the true taste of the Caribbean.
If you haven’t tried Curry’s, you’re missing out! I don’t know what’s my favorite the crispy cups or the plantains! Everything is delish, rice and peas, curry chicken, salmon, cabbage and the mac n cheese. I recommend the curry chicken crispy cup with mac, curry rolls or a stuffed plantain! They also have a bar and outdoor patio that’s decorated nicely. They have heaters out there and sometimes a DJ! I’ve also been to their food truck a few times as well!
Beautifully designed restaurant. Authentic Guyanese cuisine with authentic Jamaican and Trini dishes as well. Sorrel, mauby, doubles, bakes, pholourie & much more!

We recently dined at Curry’s restaurant, and it was an absolute delight! Between the elegant decor, warm, “happy-you’re-here” welcome, and the wefting aromatics, we just knew it was going to be a good night!! The flavors in every dish were an explosion of authentic Caribbean spices and fresh ingredients. The young lady who took care of us was excellent (forgive me for slipping on her name) making our dining experience even more enjoyable. Gabriel (the owner) was hands-on; our selections were well explained and ultimately exactly what we wanted. He also shared that the chefs are from Guyana and Jamaica adding to the genuine authenticity of taste. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone craving a taste of Guyanese/ Caribbean cuisine!!
I hadn't had jerk chicken since my trip to Jamaica, but I recently got some takeout from Curry's, and I’m thrilled with my choice. The jerk seasoning tasted authentically homemade, the chicken was perfectly charred, and the meat was wonderfully moist and tender. The generous serving of rice and beans was delicious, and the cabbage was cooked to perfection. I'm so glad I discovered this place. The service was excellent, and the interior was peaceful and spacious. I'm looking forward to dining in and trying more of their entrees and sides.
Love this place. The staff were friendly and welcoming as soon as we walked through the door. Food was immaculate. I thoroughly enjoyed the oxtails, they were falling off the bone. Large portions and worth the price!
First & foremost, we called 15 minutes before closing asking if they could accommodate us for dine (we didn’t have high hopes because it was quite late) and they did! We took an Uber and made it about 6 minutes before close and we walked into smiling faces and warm welcomes! We chose to sit at the bar where we were met with Kalvin with a K! Love him baddddd. His energy is amazing and he’s the best. He made us amazing drinks and gave us laughs to remember. Never once were we made to feel that we weren’t welcomed despite us being there well past closing. Next time I’m in Richmond I’m going straight to curry’s for vibes and AMAZING FOOD. Go here and spend all your coins!!!
One of the best dining experiences we have had in a long time. Food was amazingly fresh drinks were superb. Best jamaican food in the city for sure. None of that dried out stuff you usually get in most spots or overdone jerk. Can't say enough about this place. Authentic curry and jerk seasonings. We loved it
Straight fire
Some of the best food I ve had in a LONG time. Great atmosphere and the curry chicken is fantastic. Definitely will be back.
I was a DoorDash driver and they were so sweet and kind and patient with me. Truly a great atmosphere. :)
No answer when I called, couldnt get inside, everything is boarded up. Where is the entrance? Online says they are open and Ive walked around trying to get inside and cannot.
Currys like that!!!
The food is definitely a 10 out of 10. Highly recommend the Doubles and Saucy Shrimp Crispy cups. Had the Curry Shrimp with fried rice for an appetizer. All was delicious. The owner came out and spoke with us for a bit. It s a family run business with flavors representing Jamaica, Guyana, and Trinidad. The flavors are amazing. The food was delicious. Ended up taking some to-go as well for lunch tomorrow. Highly recommend. One of the best meals I ve had in Richmond, probably the best actually.
We had been trying to get here for a couple of months and then it magically worked out yesterday. We came here because the reviews were great and they did not let us down. We will definitely be back.
Food was amazing. But the portions for the price were rather small IN MY OPINION. I would definitely return.
Great food, great staff!
Gotta go here ASAP. The wife and I did delivery. Even so, the packaging and presentation of the food is STILL impressive and the food is amazing. Best Caribbean food so far in RVA. We can only imagine how much better it will be dining in.
so gas, i had the curry beef over the fried plantain. it was amazing
Food was incredibly flavorful! They doing something special in the kitchen. The menu is packed with flavor.
i have never devoured anything that fast. my sibling got the mac n cheese and my dad got the curry chicken and they were both super good but the oxtail was actually unbelievable. possibly death row meal. i am still in heaven from how good it was. plus there was great music playing, and amazing service, the lady who served us was super nice and she helped my sibling sample a ton of stuff and the mauby and sorrel drinks were so interesting and tasty -- if you like complex, unexpected flavors they were very lovely and yummy. overall perfect restaurant, i will be craving this and coming back!
Highly recommend the jerk chicken crispy cups! Doubles also has great flavor. Best Caribbean food we ve had in Virginia.
Great food and great service!
Food was very delicious, felt like I was in mothers kitchen. Service was good, the owner and staff was friendly.
Super good service, food came out fast and hot, had the jerk chicken, oxtails, rice and peas, plantains and stewed cabbage. Every dish was so good, definitely come check it out!
Food was on point. Everything had a spice to it ,well seasoned and fresh. It is one of the best Jamaican restaurants in the 804.
Good food has good vibes and great service.
Everything was absolutely delicious. Really nice place. Ambiance is on point
I cant wait until I visit Currys in person because oooooooh weeeeee baaaaby! I Door dashed Curry Shrimp with Bussup Shut Roti, doubles, and Crispy Cup. Unfortunately, the crispy cups were out of stock but them doubles and curry shrimp and roti was EVERYTHING MY HEART COULD DESIRE!!! The curry shrimp had plenty of shrimp, the roti was soft and flaky, the curry sauce was sooo good. But the doubles, my lawd! Somebodys granny is cooking in that kitchen because you can taste the love in their food. Vegetarian options: Currys list their vegetarian options.
Found this spot on google. Food is delicious. Oxtail, curry shrimp, chow main, and wings were all on point. Definitely will return!

Tried the jerk chicken, oxtail, and stew chicken- all were amazing but the stew chicken had to be my favorite. Owner was incredibly welcoming as well and atmosphere was cozy & inviting. I recommend trying the sorrel juice as well.

If youre a foodie like us, you will absolutely love this pleasing to the pallet experience!! The menu has an amazing selection of dishes and everything we ordered was finger-licking good! And we will definitely return when we next visit the state of VA!!!
I love everything about this place. This is an AUTHENTIC Caribbean restaurant. The blend of cultures from 3 student countries is unique & they come together well. The service was top notch, theyre very attentive & they answer menu questions with detail. The food was absolutely delicious! We had a chance to meet the owner and she was lovely. I cant wait to go back!!
found this newly open Caribbean restaurant on google! 10/10!!! the jerk chicken was AMAZING and the spice level was perfection!

My boyfriend got the chicken roti and enjoyed the curry flavor and portion size was large!!! beverages: mauby 10/10!! please go check this spot out! the food was soo good we couldnt get a picture
This place was great! I had a date night and we enjoyed every bite! We will definitely be back. We tried, curry shrimp & red snapper eskovitch both with rice & peas and cabbage. The crispy cups OMG they have were delish, we placed a second order. Sorrel & ice tea as well as a painkiller. Everything was amazing!
After being charged by a nearby restaurant for a takeout and then later being told I d be refunded because they were closed, I called Curry s. The gentleman who answered said they closed at 6 (I called at 6:11) but still offered to help me place a to go order I was already in front and they had my order hot and ready to go in less than 10 minutes. Phenomenal! I ordered the oxtail and let me tell you, were they so so delicious and actually worth the $ spent. Unlike many other places that offer the dish. Thank you Curry s! Will definitely be ordering on any future visits to VA
Excellent place to eat! Entres were stuffed Plantain with Oxtail and Saucy Shrimp with fried rice. For an appetizer the Pholorie was fantastic! Never had it before... The favor, the spice mmmm it was so good! The staff was very attentive and the owners personally stopped at each table to check in. As a fairly new place this should be on your radar. Will definitely make the drive from Williamsburg to eat here again.
When I google your Restaurant your prices all say $0 Dollars Please fix Heard Great Things about your Food
It was a take out for me today. Everyone super friendly. A gem in RVA introducing Southern Caribbean cuisine. I definitely will be returning to dine in.
food was amazing
This is a lovely restaurant. Everyone was very friendly and helpful when deciding what to order. The food was delicious! They have spicy food and mild food, good for everyone. We will definitely go back for more!! Vegetarian options: There are some vegetarian options.
My wife and I were actually looking at southern food and the wait was longer than we wanted and we saw Currys across the street and said hey lets give it a shot. We are glad we did. Friendly waitstaff and the food was delicious. I had the oxtails which were perfect and she had the stew chicken which she enjoyed as well. If you are looking for Caribbean food this is the spot. (I would play more traditional Caribbean music on the sound system but that may just be my preference) good luck to Currys in this new venture.
Great food, and drinks. Amazing costumer service and a welcoming environment!! Ill be back again!
Beautiful atmosphere- from floor to ceiling. Music is definitely a vibe. The food is authentic and full of flavor. The front and back of house staff are very welcoming. It has the best doubles I have ever had in Virginia. I will definitely be back.
Cute restaurant with delicious Trini food. We initially passed the restaurant earlier in the day and the aroma filled the air outside the restaurant. We decided to return for dinner after checking out their 5 star ratings. The doubles and pepper sauce was authentic as well as the jerk and curry chicken. The family that runs the place was delightful. We re in town visiting and will be sure to be back when we return to Richmond.
LISTENNNNNN!!!!!!! Food, atmosphere, drinks, music, vibes, hospitality ALL TOP TIER!! Went here for my husbands birthday (very close to closing time) and still the staff/owners went over and beyond to provide an exceptional experience. I cant even think of anything that could have been better. Everyone was professional yet down to earth. The restaurant was very clean and inviting. The food.....was flavorful and did not miss! Will definitely be back!
The food is amazing every time I come here and the staff are super friendly and welcoming!
Food, service and people are excellent
Being from Trinidad - was excited to have this option - food was on point curry chicken and boss-up shot roti was delicious with good Chick peas and potato / condiments with tamarind were delicious - my partner had the stew chicken with cabbage and bake - equally delicious - sorrel drink tasted amazing . Unfortunately they were sold out of doubles classic street food on the island but will be trying soon . Service was on point and great - good to hear some old soca / Caribbean music while dining - can t wait to try their roof top deck and outside area coming soon - for anyone looking for delicious Caribbean food - it s a must !
I love this place! If you want authentic Trini food here in Richmond, this is the place for you. Or if you have never tried Trini food try it!
Fantastic food! The bartender was really hot too.
The owner is so warm and welcoming. The corn soup is awesome. All of the food has so much flavor, the cabbage is the best.
RUN, don t walk, to this spot for some great food! A friend recommended I try this spot so when I visited RVA, I had to stop by. I ve never had Guyanese or Trinidadian dishes before, but everyone was super welcoming, patient, and gave some recommendations when I walked in. I decided on the curry beef dhalpuri with a side of fried plantain. Very tasty and I had to eat it all even though I was full. Still thinking about it 12+ hours later, lol. I ll be back to try more food!!!
Food and service is great.The best in Virginia.
Im absolutely amazed...
Outstanding! My boyfriend and I stopped by for the first time and ordered the vegan options: Dahl Pouri wrapped roti and plantains. Everything was so good! The mango sauce is out of this world. We found our new favorite spot! The vibe is chill. The place is clean. The people are beautiful. I am thoroughly impressed. 10/10
Very good job in this place
Its a place very calm and cozy and theyre food is very delicious. Amen I loved the plate of food I odered. It is a very nice and cozy place with delicious food.
Tru Trini Guyanese food. Entered, and Machel Montano playing. Gobbled up the food so fast forgot to get a good picture. Next time!
Awesome experience from Richmond s newest. Can t wait for this year s growth within. Please visit and support our friends.
We were riding around looking for something new to do on a Friday night .. We drove by and saw the Curry s sign and I told my wife to look it up.. She is from Guyana and when the description said South American Caribbean, I immediately parked and decided this will be dinner tonight Upon entering, everyone was very welcoming! We ordered: bake and saltfish Curry Shrimp Shrimp Chow Mein Sorrel All of the food was very good! Ask for some achar :-) It passed the Guyanese born validation!! The owners and staff stopped by to converse and sharing their stories/vision.. Richmond needs to understand that there are different types of Caribbean cuisines other than Jamaican (which I also love) so I wish these folks all the best with bringing Guyanese/Trinidadian cuisine to the city!!
Visited Curry s yesterday evening and I was pleasantly surprised. I m Caribbean born and I ve lived in Richmond for most of my life and I ve always complained about the lack of diversity in Caribbean cuisine here. When my husband and I stumbled upon Curry s and heard that they serve authentic Guyanese and Trinidadian food, we had to check it out. We ordered the bake and saltfish as an appetizer and it was definitely a 10/10. For the main course my husband ordered the chowmein with shrimp and I ordered the curry shrimp with cookup rice (Rice and peas with meat). The flavors were amazing and authentic! Honestly, the best Caribbean food I ve had in Richmond. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. The restaurant is really nice and the music set the vibe. Please check them out! Also, order a glass of sorrel with your meal to enhance your tastebuds! We will be back!
Omggggg the food was so amazing! Everything was seasoned perfectly, the portions were great, and the atmosphere was very chill. I will be back for more!
Sylvia is an amazing cook. I am a trained chef and I was so impressed by her food! Her husband Gabriel has renovated this previously fire damaged building basically by himself. And let me tell you, the atmosphere is beautiful
Amazing food, atmosphere, and service. I want to thank the owner who greeted me. Gave a warm smile and had so much knowledge about the food and history of Guyanese culture. I plan on coming here often. This is the ONLY Guyanese restaurant I think in Virginia, and its authentic!
Food was delicious well prepared. One of our dishes was the snapper it was cooked to perfection, no smell of fish seasoned well. The bake and salt fish brought back memories of our Bajan corner shop the only thing missing was some maury. I highly recommend Currys the owner was friendly and the atmosphere clean and comfortable.
This place is ! The service and atmosphere is fantastic and the food is top tier. If you are looking for something different and authentic then Currys is the place. You wont be disappointed!
Great curry and stuffed plantains. Bottomless Arnold Palmers too.
The Jerk chicken was delicious! I will definitely be eating here again.
Amazing food! The customer service was great 10/10 definitely recommend!
The food was absolutely amazing. The customer service was exceptional. The atmosphere was such a delight, very clean, very romantic the pricing that you paid for the amount of food you got was really great. Its so great to have this type of customer service stateside I felt like I was taking a trip just by visiting a restaurant, if you havent been definitely put it on your bucket list a must experience
Great experience, it was so good to try traditional curry, worth the travel, worth the money, I will definitely be returning mouth watering just thinking about it
