Jamaican Dutch Pot — Restaurant in Town of Hempstead

I was looking to buy stew peas for my wife on her birthday. Everywhere I called did not have it, or they didn't have it on Thursdays. I Google Jamaican restaurants near me, and the Dutch Pot came up. If you're well versed with Stew Peas, not everyone can make it the right way. I called, and the young lady who answered stated that it was just coming out of the kitchen for the lunch crowd. So I told her I'd take a large and rushed over. To my surprise, I didn't realize how close it was and how many times I've driven past the restaurant. The young lady had a few customers in front of me but still greeted me and asked what I wanted. I informed he that it was I who called for the large Stew Peas. She said, "ok," and continued making the previous customers' orders. When she was ringing up their orders, she informed me my order was ready as well. Well, let me tell you, the food was delicious! My wife and I loved it. The flavor was authentic as can be. We will be back for more, as well as trying out the rest of...

This was my very first time eating Jamaican food, I’ve always heard stories and myths about how delicious and sensual Jamaican food was. I came here late at night with my boys and u walked in and i felt at home, at peace.

This is the absolutely worst place that I have ever been to. I ordered a catering order from them and paid $400. I had to cancel the order and they agreed to give me a portion of the order along with a refund that totaled $285. I received a portion of my order along with $100 and was told sorry we already seasoned the chicken. Not only did I not received the chicken they never paid my refund as agreed to. They kept telling me to call the owner or come at night just to be told that the owner cannot be reached. When I tried to call the owner myself she stopped answering and would just read text messages without answering. You try to support local businesses just to get ripped off and lied to. I’ve read reviews that complained about them and the service and even seen that this restaurant almost went out of business. Buyers beware. I would give zero...
