My, my, my. What a meal! SO I was craving oxtails and bring that it was a shopping day I had noTime to make them so I did a little Yelp search and came across Caribbean Delight. A small, unassuming, brick building that houses some REALLY GOOD Jamaican fair. I parked around back and walked in, immediately greeted by the nice woman behind the counter. I reviewed the menu and decided on the "small" oxtail plate with rice and peas, and cabbage. I also ordered a Jamaican beef patty. The price was reasonable. I sat at the counter and my food was in front of my before I could get settled. Let's talk portions... a small is MORE than enough food for one person. The taste: SO FRIGGIN TASTY and authentic. The rice and peas were seasoned well, the oxtails and gravy were sticky and thick and flavorful and the cabbage was tender. I was so happy eating this food that warmed up my little soul. Nothing was too salty and it reminded me of my best friend's mother's (who is Jamaican) oxtails... I was impressed. I ate the beef patty later and was equally impressed at the authenticity and taste. Trust me, I will be back and trying the stew...

Ā Ā Ā Read moreIāve been to this restaurant (both franchises) many times. However, I stopper for about 8 months due to the recurring observation that they sell stale meat. I am Jamaican myself and this is the third ordeal Iāve had with them selling stale chicken. The way you know if meat is stale is by the tenderness and texture of it. I had stew chicken with rice and peas yesterday and the rice was delicious, cabbage as well, even the gravy from the chicken but the chicken itself was so stale I couldnāt even have 2 bites. Undeniably tough and hard to chew, the meat wasnāt white or falling off the bone. It was rather brown and hard to remove. I have seen great business plummet because they stop making efforts for their food and I know more people realize this. Both the Moncks Corner location and North Charleston do this same thing where they sell stale meat and bask it in gravy which does...
