Island Taste Caribbean - Decatur

The customer service is A1!!!The j chicken was delicious! The curry tasted like baked chicken with a hint of curry seasoning. It didn't really have that Jamaican curry taste. I'm going to give it one more try though, everyone has an off day.

Ordered a veggie patty and oxtails plate from here via Postmates. I specifically wrote on the order for “extra oxtail sauce/gravy! Pour all over rice peas and oxtails.” Well, someone did not read and comprehend. These are the absolute driest oxtails I have ever had in my life! Absolutely no sauce/gravy at all. Nothing but meat, a heap of rice with some big beans sprinkled on top. All dry and spiced. The oxtails are tough to chew. Plaintains are blah, cabbage is mediocre. At least the veggie patty was enjoyable! Won’t be eating from here ever again.

I drove all the way from Midtown to enjoy some authentic Jamaican cuisine after seeing glowing reviews for this restaurant. However, upon my arrival, I discovered that the name was completely different than what I found on Google. The place is actually called "Mamas Yawd," not "Island Taste Caribbean Restaurant." I had tried calling twice to confirm if they had the dishes I wanted, but there was no answer. I thought they might just be busy since it was still early. Unfortunately, when I got there, I found that they were closed. Lesson learned: always trust your initial instincts—it would have saved me the trip!

Baru (I may be misspelling the name) really makes this place feel welcoming! He is very nice and attentive to the guests. I truly appreciate his wonderful hospitality!

It was alright. It wasn't unpleasant, but I felt that everything could have used more flavor. The strawberry cake had no hint of strawberry, and the cabbage could have been seasoned better.
