The Island Caribbean Cuisine and Drinks

I ordered a 2 fritay couple days ago at the Island cuisine it was a total disappointment. Not only they made me wait for 1 hour because apparently they took my order wrong but tell me why when opened the box the lettuce on the side salad was rotten and the meat uncooked ? When I called the restaurant for service recovery they told me to come back mind you I live in Brockton and they are located in Sommerville, getting another side salad? Like really for 44 dollars? You guys need to work on your customer services cuz clearly it's beyond poor and the food sucks

Absolutely incredible! The Island Haitian Spot is a true gem. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with the warmest hospitality, making me feel like I was right at home. The atmosphere is vibrant and full of energy, with authentic Haitian music and decor that really bring the island vibes to life.If you're craving Haitian food or looking to try something new, The Island is a must-visit. 5 stars all the way!

Saturday special is goat soup with bones $12 or meat $18. My friend got fried beef meat with rice & beans and 2 flattened plantains that seemed fried. Everything tasted good and it was well cooked. The only complaint is that the passion friit listed under fruit juices was not a juice, it came on ice (after waitress specifically repeated my instructions not to put any) and it was made on thick and very sweet syrup. The flavor had hints of almond and maraschino cherry. The decor is from a previous irish bar, all wood a stained glass. The benches are too tall for the tables at back. There are themed nights on Saturday with zouk and other carribean dances. "$10 after 11pm, food served all night long".

I eat here all the time. This place is less than a year old and it looks like people don’t know it’s here yet. The food is delicious! I think I’ve ordered almost everything on the menu, but it ranges from rice and meats such as fish, turkey, chicken, goat, and wings to plantains, French fries, and tasty passion fruit or lemonade beverages. Their choice of music ranges from old school r&b to Haitian tunes. It’s very unique and the staff is very friendly and accommodating. It’s a laid back atmosphere, but on weekends after hours, they move the tables for a dance arena for fun. You can still just come in for a bite to eat if you want. I do eat here a lot because I just love the food. There is nothing on the menu that disappoints me.

So listen., I was hungry and wanted to try something different I see this restaurant everyday on the way to work and wish I stopped by sooner I was so much food I had to rub my feet together and take a nap .. 100 wanted to go thank the cook
