Worst tasting Jamaican food I have ever had in my life. I am a Jamaican so I know what the food is suppose to take like an dis here dont taste good at all. Rice was burned tasting and the oxtails taste weird. The only thing that taste decent is the beef patty. Also the place smells like an outhouse. Customer service was not good either. I thought this Golden Krust would’ve been great like the ones in Florida but absolutely not. Its gross.
The ladies inside were sweet and helpful. I told them it was my first time and they recommended the jerk chicken (not wings). Excellent flavors and a good value since this plate was less than $16. Make sure you ask for the jerk sauce with your order, it’s smoky and flavorful. I’ll be coming back for sure.
The small braised oxtail was so delicious, tender, and full of flavor. I also had the spicy beef patty and it was excellent. My mother in law had the curried chicken and the mild beef Patty and she enjoyed. She also had the pineapple ginger drink which was reviewed as amazing. Be warned there is a great bit of ginger flavor but she also loves ginger. Overall a great experience, quick and friendly service and large portions.
Food was delicious and I'm a big fan of oxtails and they were so good I plan to go back again!!
I have eaten at this restaurant before. I initially gave a good review after an in person visit. I ordered an Uber eats order for $9 an received the order on the picture 📸. 1 piece of a chicken thigh cut 3 times. I tried calling the restaurant to see if something could be rectified. NOTHING! The attitude was dismissive an terrible. I now understand the low rating.
Golden Krust has some really amazing Jamaican food! I stopped by to try the new shrimp patties and they were delicious, spicy and had a perfect crust. The oxtails were my fave though! So tender and the perfect amount of gravy. Big portions too which I love. Definitely a great spot to check out!
My first experience with this type of food. I really wanted to try the "staple" beef patty. The store didn't have any. We arrived there at 3pm. So we ordered oxtail, spinach rice, and sweet chili chicken. Our drink was sorrel ginger. The rice and drink was very tasty. Unfortunately I cannot say the same for the entrees. The oxtail was on the salty side and I wasn't expecting the gummy texture. The chicken had the potential of being delicious however the skin was tough, kind of like leftover fried chicken. It was all dark meat. The meals came with plantain but I definitely don't think it was worth $45 (for 2 people)

As an adventurous person, I love trying out new things, places and food. So on a summer Sunday afternoon like this, hubby and I set out to try this restaurant and I must say, it’s been a very different food journey for me. My order was some white rice, jerk chicken, salad and some fried chicken. Hubby went for curry and spicy goat meat. The main review was cause the waitress named Annie was real patient with my indecisive food choice and allowed us taste in small portions before making this choice. 5 star for customer service. 4 star for overall food because it’s my first time. 3 star for the steamed salad (I’m used to the fresh salad). Overall, great afternoon ❤️
