“ Since people think good food only exist in Manhattan I am giving Chris Caribbean restaurant five stars since I've been coming here and getting good food for over 10 years. 13 for stew beef, rice and beans, cabbage ,plantain and collard greens can feed a small army. As far as customer service, it's not Park Ave. ”
“ I have been eating Chris’s for 5 years now and every single experience has been fantastic. The folks working here are genuinely nice good people. The food is spectacular in taste and portion. The jerk chicken is very tasted as is the rice, cabbage and plantains. Its a wholesome filling experience for the soul and stomach. I love visiting Chris’s even though its a 2 hour commute home! I recently have been buying their jerk chicken pastry and it too is succulent, juicy and delicious. Thank you to the wonderful folks here who make every visit so worth the 2 hour commute back home ”
