Little Ochi Carl's Seafood Restaurant

Firstly this spot was sparkling clean. The atmosphere was good and the staff were courteous and very friendly. The ackee and saltfish I purchased was fresh and taste very good. The festival was delicious 😋. Will definitely be shopping back here soon. Great true Jamaican restaurant.

The only reason I gave a 3-star is because of the lady who assisted me. I know some folks had a bad experience, but not me. However, I was very disappointed with the food. I was hyped about eating there for the very first time. So food, I give a 2-star. Service a 4-star. I ordered takeout. Atmosphere a 3-star. The restroom had all types of items like storage, but it the restroom was clean and surprisingly was not smelling. So that's a huge plus. You can see the cook in the kitchen from the counter. The dining area was clean. Overall, 3-star until I can make another visit, maybe then I can revise my review.

Anyone with a food allergy to seafood please be careful. I love this restaurant they sell the best Jerk Chicken Fried Rice. I ordered it recently this week and originally I was shared out a Shrimp Fried Rice in error but I immediately made the man aware that who would be eating it (my daughter) is allergic to the shrimp so I needed the jerk chicken as requested prior over the phone. He immediately dumped out the shrimp fried rice and even took the steps of getting a new container for me. My daughter ate it and 20 to 30 mins later ended up having a serve allergic reaction that ended up her being rushed to ER. Turns out there were three shrimps in her food which one she ingested. Now I know they have a new container and not the one that had the shrimp so the only thing I can think of is that

Cow heel soup!!! Nuff said. I prefer the cook here to other Jamaican restaurants in the area. I personally get it with some Scotch bonnet pepper on the side. It’s almost a weekly regular for me. Beside the soup the curry goat is amazing. I get it with provision instead of rice To make it a little healthier. Update: been back this time for the chicken soup(Tuesdays.) I love this soup soo much I get it quite frequently. The next time I go it will be for the curry goat so be on the look out for that update :).

A deeply concerning experience – my health and safety were affected I don’t usually write reviews, but after what I experienced at Carl’s Seafood in Tamarac, I feel it’s my responsibility to warn others — especially those who may be older or have health conditions. I’m 65 years old, and I came here hoping to support a local Jamaican business during a visit to the area. What happened left me shaken. From the moment I entered, I was met with cold, unfriendly stares from the staff. There was no greeting, no warmth — just an uncomfortable, unwelcoming atmosphere. I stood there unsure if I should even speak, as the staff acted as though my presence was a problem. The owner, Carl Dixon, was sitting at a table and stared at me intently without so much as a hello or acknowledgment. It was unsett
