Best Indeed — Restaurant in New Orleans

f you’re anywhere nearby and craving real Caribbean flavor, Best Indeed Authentic Caribbean Cuisine lives up to its name and then some! I stopped in for lunch, and every single dish was out of this world.

And don’t even get me started on the fried chicken — crisp, juicy, and seasoned all the way through. It’s the kind of fried chicken that makes you close your eyes for a second just to savor it.

The portions are generous, the service is warm, and the food is pure comfort with a Caribbean soul. Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or treating yourself to something special, this spot hits every mark.
