One Dream Jamaican Cafe

Solid food. Was not hot, only warm, but that was about what I expected from photos - servings from a large batch. Chicken portion is not as big as it looks, as it's almost as much bone as meat, but it was still solid price. Curry Chicken was good flavor, not the most intense but good. Lots of bones as is the style, but unfortunately many of them had been chopped and cooked such that they fractured into tiny shards that couldn't be identified in the sauce, making eating a bit of an ordeal. Even so it was not bad, but equally flavorful curry chicken can be found elsewhere without the bone shards. Rice was good and has generous kidney beans if that's your thing, pasta salad was excellent. Service ranged from low key to very attentive depending on who it was, but if the order was prepar

So I’ve been missing out on all this good food for a year they’ve been open. To start the macaroni salad blew me out of the wata everything from flavors to texture was Perfect. Digging into my curry chicken white rice n cabbage was nothing short of amazing. So perfectly season with a nice spice to the meal for that kick. Make sure you grab a Cranberry Wata. I was surprised at the taste never judge a book by its cover, that drink is so delicious and refreshing. Customer Service Was Exceptional And The Atmosphere Was Very Welcoming.

OMG!!! The BEST OXTAILS I HAD THIS FAR IN NEW YORK!! THE BEST FOOD PERIODDDD!! Everything came out freshhh & that cabbage is amazing, it gave like a smoked flavor, moist and seasoned to perfection. Rice and peas was so hot & fresh burnt the root of my mouth. Plantains was good just wish it was sweeter. Def went back the next day to get another plate!

First time visitor I was getting my tire fixed across the street. I stopped by when there was only one customer ahead of me, so service moved quickly. The cashier was very friendly and welcoming, both with me and other guests. Inside, there are tabletop seating options and what looks like a full bar. Music was playing overhead—felt like an old DJ club mix—but the visuals on the screen weren’t really child-appropriate. I ordered the curry goat. The flavor was okay—nothing wild this time—but I’d be willing to come back and try another dish before making a final judgment. Overall, a decent first visit with friendly service. Worth giving them a try.

I live in Schenectady but I do a lot of Real estate in Albany so I am there daily. I have tried many of the Jamaican spots in Albany with having a Jamaican mother I crave the food regularly. I was not disappointed at all by the food! I ordered the curry goat, cabbage with rice & peas. The curry goat taste similar to my grandma’s cooking in Queens. Very tender and flavorful. Now I feel like I can get a little taste of home while I’m out working. The workers are kind and attentive. I was definitely hangry and the food made me feel much better.
