Raggas Caribbean Cafe — Restaurant in Liverpool

Terrible customer service. We are a Family of 11 that drove 4 hours to visit Liverpool for the first time. This restaurant came highly recommended but sadly we didn’t get the try the food. We called up at 2:30 and spoke to a lady that told us they close at 9pm so we need to be there before 8:30pm as we couldn’t reserve a table. We walked for 40 mins arrived at 8pm to be told they didn’t have space. I asked if some could sit on a table even though it was for 6 people we could put the 8 children on there she said yes and then we was going to use the sitting at window also. After we got the children seated we asked how you order she reply that there is no food and they are closing 8:30pm. I told her what the lady told me on the phone but she started her shift after we called and didn’t know anything about us calling. Very poor organisation and communication. The child as you can think was very upset and hungry as we then had to walk 45 mins to the city centre to find food for children to eat. Terrible start to are holiday here, Especially with us coming to celebrate Jamaican...

Been going for about 7-8 years and always get a tasty meal.

The meals are always seasoned well and although spicy they never blow your head off

The West Indian style curry is mega as Is the oxtail and stewed steak and sweet potatoes. All the meats are tender and melt in your mouth.

The saltfish fritters are a lovely little snack to eat on the way home and also the Jamaican patties .

The lamb pattie is my favourite with all the flavours coming thru , especially the thyme. But they do beef and chicken also.

The fried chicken is juicy and don't forget to get a couple of festival which are like donuts but not sweet and you can mop up all the spicy sauces.

The coleslaw is fresh and crunchy and really helps to balance all the spices and flavours.

Everything on the menu is really tasty and it's hard to stop eating it even when you are full.

Also any leftovers mixed and heated together the next day is a perfect reminder of the fantastic flavours.

The stewed lamb chops had a good bit of meat and they was in a rich gravy .wil defo...

Very good portion sizes but the food was lacklustre and as a Grenadian who has grown up with amazing Caribbean food this was disappointing. Whilst the lamb chops were the star of the show they still weren’t a patch on my Yorkshire born and bred boyfriend’s take on the dish and like the jerk chicken and curry chicken (the latter strangely boneless which dents the flavour) were marooned like islands surrounded by a sea of watery sauce which diluted the taste and made everything lack ‘oomph’. The rice and peas were bland and substandard but the plantain and festivals looked and tasted the part. Not sure who is cooking the food or running the place but more authenticity and attention to detail needed. The search for a good Merseyside Caribbean food...
