Sun Island Plate

Okay i will start by saying the food was good very flavorful and cooked well. The woman behind the counter was very pleasant and the establishment seem clean. Now what i did have a problem with, I ordered a Small oxtail with plantain and no veggies and it came with rice & pea for $21.00. Now there is no reason i paid $21 for a meal and only got 4 pieces of oxtail, 3 plantains even though i opted out of the veggies they could had give 2 or 3 more plantains and of cours a ton of rice which was more so hard even though it was flavorful.. I can until the price of things have went up but a lot of these carribean restaurants need to do better they are raising prices and giving smaller potions at least if you raise the price keep the same potion and it is absolutely ridiculous to charge someone for and oxtail meal and they only get 4 pieces of oxtail especially when you see 4 is being counted out.. Now i will say they arent cheap with the gravy and thats probably because they think it will cover up the fact that you only got 4 pieces.. The food is good but there portion need to improve

Walking into Sun Island Plate reminded me so much of the islands I forgot I’m in New Jersey. The food was cooked fresh to perfection and the drinks were delicious with no additives. We dined in and even played on the little game table just to kill time while the food was being prepared. The food serving was big and great value for money. The fish, rice and pease, cabbage, plantain and Mac & cheese were all top standard and super tasty 🤤. To top it off the atmosphere was off the charts. The music playing was a mix of lovers reggae and beautiful R&B. For a Sunday service it was the perfect selection as if chosen for me and my partner. The service was excellent and to top it off it’s my birthday and the owner generously gave me cakes as a gift. It’s now truly a special place and I’ll definitely visit again when I come back to New Jersey or New York.

Tonight was my first time there, I was a little skeptical at first to be honest. But when I tell you the lady was so nice, friendly definitely they have the best customer service! Also they are not stingy with the gravy. The food is delicious I had the rice & peas with oxtail and cabbage. I will be back soon because there’s more stuff I want to try. I would recommend them 100 percent .

I didn’t leave a review in service or atmosphere ad we ordered on the phone and picked it up. We visited this place while on vacation. Husband got jerk chicken that was so charred he couldn’t eat it. I got my kids fried chicken with macaroni. The fried chicken had no flavor and was overcooked and dry. My kids didn’t eat a single piece. Macaroni had flavor but we didn’t like it at all. I got ox tails and it was decent. Nothing to be excited over. The veggies were good and plantains. That’s probably the only thing I really enjoyed the veggies and plantains. Picture is showing my oxtails and a piece of husband overly charred chicken. We spent $60 and most of it was not edible. Gave two stars because my oxtails were edible but again nothing to be excited over everything else went in the trash.

✨First Time Customer. I Kicked Out $60.00. I Purchased Oxtails Over Alfredo Noodles. First Off The Noodles Was Ok, The Alfredo Was Ok…. The Oxtails Was Tough, Small And Not Meaty. For $26.00 I Wasn’t Expecting VERY Large Pieces, But I Was Expecting Better. Then I Ordered A Large Peas And Rice W/Oxtail Gravy. It Was Ok. I Also Ordered Chili Wings… Now Those Was ROCKIN! Ordered 2 Beef Patties Which Was Also Good. I Ordered In The Evening. Maybe It Was An Off Day, But It Wasn’t That Great (Especially The Oxtails). I’ll Stick To What I Know (Also Tipped $11.00).✨
