Trini Girl — Restaurant in New York

Updated Review!: First time I came here on November 6th, the food was not properly cooked so I had to throw it away.

Came here December 22nd, ordered several different things to give them one more chance.

Curry duck dinner (4.5) it was good, a bit spicy but overall it was tasty with the fried rice.

Doubles (5/5). Maybe some of the best doubles I’ve ever had. No pepper sauce this time but there was a green sauce (callaloo maybe) and cucumber. Very delicious. I would definitely recommend this.

Curry goat and buss up roti with curry potatoes. (4.5/5). The goat is some of the best Trinidadian curry goat I’ve had with a tablespoon of tamarind. I ate some of it and loved it. Would get it like this again.

Saltfish and bake (4.75/5). I got these separately but the saltfish was a bit too salty (ironic), yet it was very good with the bake. Get it, you’ll like it.

I gave them another Trini cause I’ve always been underwhelmed with Trinidadian food. This time, it was actually really good (maybe a new chef).

Come here for some food, you won’t regret it.

The guy with glasses, maybe Indo Trinidadian gives off a negative bad vibe to me. Gut feeling is just letting me know he’s not a good person.

I spent $40, today Monday 11/6/23 and bought two chicken curry roti, five doubles and a chicken curry dinner.

Had to throw everything away. The woman put the extremely hot pepper sauce on the doubles. I couldn’t eat it. I didn’t ask for it either.

The roti (I don’t really like Trinidadian food like that but was urged to fry it) had uncooked chicken in it.

I had to throw everything away and will dispute with my CC. Absolutely upset for what I received.

Take a look in the attached picture I posted and tell me if this chicken looks cooked. Smh. Never again will I come back here.

Im calling the health department too....

I traveled all the way from New Jersey to visit this Trinidadian gem, and it was worth every mile! From the moment I stepped in, the warm and welcoming atmosphere made me feel at home. The aroma of authentic Caribbean spices filled the air, setting the stage for an unforgettable dining experience.

The doubles were hands down the best I’ve ever had—perfectly soft bara paired with a well-seasoned, flavorful channa filling that had just the right kick of spice. The curry and roti were an absolute dream, with the curry rich, savory, and spiced to perfection, and the roti so soft and flaky it melted in my mouth. The corn soup was hearty and full of depth, a warm and comforting bowl that hit all the right notes. The stew chicken was tender and well-marinated, with flavors that were both bold and satisfying.

The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, happy to share recommendations and ensure that I felt the vibrant essence of Trinidadian cuisine. Their authenticity, passion, and hospitality elevated the experience even further.

I can confidently say this trip was worth every mile, and I’ll gladly make the journey again. If you’re craving authentic, mouthwatering Trini food, look no further—this...

My daughter has cerebral palsy and uses a wheelchair scooter, and she was unable to enter this establishment. There is a sign on front of the building, saying no scooters allowed. My daughter had to wait outside for her food. The exit door have a ramp for acess for people with disabilities that uses a wheelchair or scooter wheelchair. The owner has no compassion or charity for people with a disability who want to come into your place of business to sit down and enjoy a meal. In addition to her cold heart and lack of compassion my daughter wanted extra sauce for her meal. I ask politely and the owner of the business who happens to be a woman told me that she will have to charge me $2.00 extra for sauce. I said excuse me Miss I just spended $55.00 for my order and you want to charge me additional $2.00 for a condiment cup size of sauce. I quietly took my food and walk out of the restaurant. The owners attitude was very unwelcoming and she likes compassion for people that has disability because the exit of the building doesn’t allow acess for wheelchair and scooter wheelchair people to enter her establishment. My experience took place on...
