Blue Flame Jamaican Fusion — Restaurant in City of Schenectady

I have passed this place many times and would say I need to try them. Anytime I see a new Caribbean spot the first thing I order is always the oxtails.

Yesterday was the day. I ordered the braised oxtails cooked with Lima beans and comes with steamed cabbage, rice and peas and one fried plantain.

The oxtails were cooked to perfection - fork tender, fall off the bone with ease, thick gravy, nicely seasoned with a bit of spice. By far one of the best I have had in a while. Enjoyed the lima beans that were cooked with the oxtails.

The steamed cabbage had no seasoning or flavor, cooked well, tender with a slight crunch.

The rice and peas were bland but mixed with the oxtails and gravy was better

Was sad I only received one plantain - next time I will order an extra side of them.

Definitely a decent price for the serving I received.

I give the oxtails an 8 out of 10. The...

The food was excellent and has far exceeded my expectations 😋! I ordered the Braised Oxtail, with rice & beans & cabbage, and the Rasta Jerkfredo Pasta, with chicken and shrimp. And let me tell you that after having tasted these delectable items, I am in extreme bliss. The pasta was flavorful and well seasoned with an added touch of heat, which I loved. The shrimp was succulent, and the chicken, plump and juicy. The oxtail is delightful. The rice and beans were especially cooked to perfection, and the cabbage tasted light and fresh. I spoke with Shakira, who was attentive and never lost patience with me when I asked a thousand questions about the menu. I am looking forward to going here again in the future whenever I visit New York again. This place was truly a great experience for me, and I heartily recommend eating...

I have had a number of dishes here. They are all a 10/10 so far. The rice and peas is consistently good. I have been trying to find a good Jamaican spot upstate since I moved from the city and this place lives up to it. The food is flavorful and the price is affordable. The jerk pork and chicken taste like what you would get in Jamaica and it’s not too spicy, it retains the jerk flavor well, also try it with the pineapple jerk sauce. Exceptional! The jerk chicken taco is a 10/10 with flavors hitting you with every bite. The brown stew chicken is well cooked and flavorful 8/10, I do like my brown stew a bit more spicy but this is a good one. If you are looking for good Jamaican food, this is a great spot! Customer Service is great also! Will be going back...
