MarlieQs Caribbean Queen Food Truck LLC — Restaurant in Charlotte

I really wanted to like these folks because they were so super nice and I give them 5+ stars for their customer service and friendly attitude. The food just didn't do it for me though.

I had jerk chicken with rice and peas and garlic green beans; beef patty and coco bread. The chicken was seasoned well and cooked properly but didn't have any gravy. I've never had jerk chicken from a Jamaican restaurant without the gravy/sauce. The rice and peas were more like the style that comes in a box that you have at home. Not terrible, but just not restaurant level at all. Most disappointing of all, the beef patty wasn't freshly made. Much to my dismay I discovered that the patty I ordered came from a box (I saw the box in the back of the prep area as I waited for my order. Pic attached). I've bought the same ones before from Costco/Sam's Club. Again, not bad but didn't have the flaky crust as the ones that I am accustomed to having in a Jamaican restaurant. The coco bread was warm and fresh. The entrée portion was small compared to what I have received from other Jamaican restaurants.

I discovered Marlie's big blue truck about 6 week shy of my wedding and was desperately looking for a caterer. Not only did she help calm my panic down assuring me we had enough time to get what was needed, she was super responsive and took the time to answer my umpteenth amount of questions. For wedding day we rented the heating equipment from Marlie; she delivered and completely set up the buffet spread beautiful and in a way that made the line flow seamlessly. Now the food... Being of Caribbean descent we were adamant about ensuring the food was as authentic tasting as one of our family members cooking, Marlie knocked it out the park! IT WAS THE MOST DELICIOUS, WELL SEASONED, FALLING OFF THE BONE, MADE WITH LOVE spread we could have asked for. Hands down the best Jamaican food in CLT, I would recommend Marlie to bring the flavors to every and all occasions. You will not be...
