Great experience. The service was excellent. Friendly service

August 1, 2024

My friend was treated horribly here by the owner and was denied the bathroom even after willing to pay because he was "not from their" "came from nowhere" a bathroom is a bathroom and as long as you're getting business I suggest you take a look at yourselves. Human rights 🗑️

August 1, 2024

I was in the middle of nowhere and needed a bathroom and the Lady who I believe is owner said if I need the bathroom I need to pay. So I said alright I'll buy a Pop cuz I'm thirsty and I start walking to the bathroom. As I'm going she stops me and says umm no you're intentions are to use the bathroom by paying for a drink so no not unless you're ordering. It wasn't busy and their was basically no one there. I said again I'm paying for a drink I'll only be a few mins and she says no. I storm out. If you need a bathroom you cant even pay for a drink to use 1 at this place. Stay away from it :)

I ordered the shrimp chow neon through SkipTheDishes and I ordered the shrimp chow mein. It mentioned that the shrimp would be light battered. The shrimp was not battered and the noodles had no taste. I definitely tried noodles that are way tastier.

December 22, 2023

Ordered from this restaurant because it was recommended. I was VERY disappointed. Ordered spicy shrimp fried rice that said it was battered and fried - it had no batter, no spice and barely any flavor. Also ordered chicken chow mein and the chicken in the chow mein was SPOILED! Had to throw it out. Completely turned me off, couldnt even eat the other items I ordered...not that they even tasted good in the first place.

December 22, 2023

Attitude for no reason, lady on the phone has no professionalism. JULY 21st @7:44pm. Glad I called before ordering. I will avoid eating at this place. The lack of respect for customers asking genuine questions is ridiculous. stop working at places you don t enjoy working at.

Great family owned Caribbean/Guyanese Restaurant with friendly and professional service and delicious and well priced menu. The karaoke inside is a wonderful surprise and the guests as well as the regulars sing their hearts out and smooth the souls of the customers who frequent the fine establishment. The patio is well built and very relaxing as well as specious enough for groups and parties. Definitely recommending this hidden gem. Wish I knew of it earlier as it is 9 years old from what the owner told me. Blessings to the owner and the crew

Order through Skip came fast and warm. Mixed fried rice is very nice, crispy chicken, large pieces of pork, many small shrimp. Curry chicken and potato taste nice but is watery, they need to stew it longer and hotter to break down the potato and thicken the sauce ;) Also, they did not send steamed rice as listed in the ad? Roti was fresh and soft with dhal. Everything was not too salty also and thats a good thing! I will be ordering again.

Playing music so loud is can be heard 2 blocks away. Disrespectful awful place. I was hoping theyd close down during the pandemic so our neighbours could finally be rid of their noise, but theyre back at it again unfortunately. They forget other people live here and dont want to listen to their awful repetitive music at top volume.

This is one of my favourite restaurants for food and sometimes, to hang out. I love what the owner, Z has done with this place. Shes an amazing woman with a vision that she and her crew have worked hard to materialize. You can enjoy a variety of very flavourful Guyanese-Indian, Caribbean-Chinese delicacies. There are weekly activities and regular events such as karaoke and dinners. The music is always of mixed genres and the atmosphere is soothing. Great place for dinner parties and quick lunch time meetings. They also deliver their delicious menu via a number of companies like Uber Eats and Skip the dishes. I am Vegan and have had no problems with the cook accommodating my No animal product request. Thanks Caribbean Coast.

I am not one to write reviews but I had to leave one regarding the rude and obnoxious customer service from this establishment. The food is great, but recently when trying to put an order through via their website which links to skip the dishes, it was not working, so I called, twice. The first person said he would find out and call me back, never happened. So I called again and a female answered. I explained the situation and instead of trying to help a customer she told me I should call Skip the dishes with the problem. She was rude, impolite and has no peoples skill whatsoever. She can use some training. Obviously they dont need the business or should she would have asked me if she could take my order over the phone as I was willing to pick it up. How you treat people and speak to them goes a long way.

The waitress is very rude. The food we ordered was spoiled and the waitress claimed that she was there all day and the food was cooked fresh. She gave the food to a random customer to smell to prove her point of view and even the random customer said it smells off . She said she would give us a refund and charged us on top. We went back and told her and we got even more attitude from her and the owner as well. We HIGHLY WOULD NOT recommend this place.

Finally I got a glass, which she slammed down on the counter. This woman does not have customer service, take your business elsewhere where you will get respect and have a great time instead.

Food is tasty, I will say that. But, if u want to go to a place that appreciates ur business with kindness & friendly customer service, this is NOT the place to go. Have been there a total of 4 times. Four different servers. The second one decided to quit after she served us, stating that she was dis respected there too much. More or less a rum shop also. Today, take out, ordered veggie rice & it had a piece of chicken in it. That was it. Will find another place, as I said, it was the food that sent me there.
