Best grill chicken in town, a special recipe from Belize “Jerk Chicken” has an amazing blend of spices. The sides compliment the chicken. Even though the restaurant is not fancy but the quality of food and taste makes you forget where you are.

I ordered from Uber Eats, I asked for it to be beautiful and they over exceeded my expectations. My first time trying this restaurant, it was so flavorful, hot and fresh! It hit my taste buds and is my new favorite!

Out of the two Belizean restaurants in Chicago, this is by far the best one. Food has better taste and the granachas are very good.. The server (i forgot his name, is the one that used to play soccer) is really nice and funny!!

My first taste of Garifuna was when they had catered our lunch. I had the Jerk chicken, stewed chicken, beans and rice and Caribbean steamed cabbage! It was all very flavorful and melt in your mouth! Hold up! I didn’t even get to the real star of the show which was the caramel cake! Omg! I didn’t want a slice, give me the whole freakin cake! If you have a sweet tooth, make sure to save some room for dessert!

Delicious Belizean meals and dishes, portions are always perfect and fill you up. The restaurant has a lot of information about Belize and it’s food culture. Jerk chicken, stewed chicken, plantains, rice, and Mac are the go-to choices for me
