This low-key Queens eatery is a local favorite for its generous portions of Caribbean-style chicken fried rice.
Description




The menu features budget-friendly eats, though visitors highlight some inconsistencies in food quality, such as dry chicken or underwhelming pepper shrimp. The indoor atmosphere gets mixed reviews; some suggest the space needs brighter, more modern lighting, while others report a rowdy, drinking crowd that has made unwanted remarks to female customers. For those ordering takeout, the plastic containers are prone to cracking and leaking during transport.
