Golden Krust Caribbean Restaurant

Went for the first time. I didn't see a menu but the set up is like a cafeteria. You see the food and you tell someone what you want they fix it. I had brown stew chicken, peas and rice, cabbage, sweet plantains, Mac and cheese.. The food was really good and I was satisfied.

I don't know what happened since I came back to Miami but I guess for true Jamaican food I have to go to fort lauderdale where most Jamacans live now.. It was lunch time and I ordered the jerk Chicken with Rice and peas. They told me the jerk chicken was in the back so I waited... I didn't mind paying the $15 but that Jerk chicken wasn't even hot and it wsn't even jerk.. I asked for a jerk sauce and they gave me hot sauce.. really? hot sauce with Jerk chicken.. The rice and peas were good not overcooked , but everything was touching on cold , not even a tad warm.. I must say I came to Golden Krust today because when I was coming here 20 years ago, the food scene was definitely different.. Back then the rice and peas served in restauants were cooked with coconut and you could smell the coconut aroma coming up from the plate.. My only reasoning is that because few Jamaicans live in the area anymore, the current population prefers a low salt meal which actually makes the food pretty much tasteless. My reason for this is because I have gone to other Jamaican restaurants with good names that have been around a long time and I still had the above experience, but I must say because another well known jamaican restaurant I went to the food was so greasy if I had to I would come back to Golden Krust. I have gone to other Jamaican restaurants with good names that had been around a long time and I still had the same above experience but I must say because that food at The other well known restaurant was so greasy (tasted like palm oil) if I had to I would come back up this way to Golden Krust, but not for Jerk Chkn.. The cabbage was EXCELLENT.. but hey it cost me $15? The winner so far since I have been back in Miami is Cliffs... They cook that meat right in the back on a pit..and my food what served hot..

Great food but super slow staff. They could be more attentive and pleasant. Don’t recommend to go during lunch break.

Was standing in front of patty line for 10 minutes as employees walked past me and never greeted or addressed me. When I finally spoke the lady brushed me off sucked her teeth and said “someone coming”. Honestly I will never spend a dime at Golden krust ever again. Absolutely terrible customer service.

Awesome ackee and salt fish.. keep up the good work..

The customer service, here, was awful! I wouldn’t go back, for free.

Not good customer service at all. But the worst part of all is I bought a plate of curry, chicken, peas, and rice tasted very good, but it was here in my food. I couldn’t finish the plate. I had to throw it away, spoiled my appetite. They need to wear hairnets and gloves, hairnets and gloves, please hair nets and gloves staff cooks please wear hair nets before you start preparing food. Wear aprons, wear gloves wear hairnets. The customer service is bad they don’t smile. They barely want to answer your questions when you’re new to the store it’s weird not a good environment. Very dissatisfied Customer.

I don’t know who toke the hands in that kitchen today,at golden krust on 7ave and 183 street Friday afternoon but let me tell you something who ever cooked that goat meat did a wonderful job,the meat was very tenderized,tasty,full of gravy was so dam good,a nice complete hearty meal hot and very fresh!!!! Thank you for your service it greatly appreciated!!!!

I visited on Friday, November 10 at around 5:15pm. The cashier (Heavy set, Dark-skin Lady) was extremely rude interrupting me as I spoke to the young lady fixing my plate. I asked about only purchasing fried chicken wings, she stated “I needed to go next door to Snappers for that.” I purchased a large oxtail dinner and two beef patties, she threw my bag around the plastic barrier. She continuously sucked her teeth and had an attitude.The next morning, the food had to be thrown out. It was spoiled. The atmosphere in this establishment sucks and the food is a waste of money, I’ll wait the extra 15 minutes at Jamaican House or Dutch Pot.
