Reviews for Dhat Island Caribbean Creole in Redlands, CA
Awesome as always. Yummy plantains, great bourbon chicken, and the best jamaican sodas. Plus you can put your feet in the sand.
First time to this restaurant, I really enjoyed the dish my niece has recommended. Although it was somewhat spicy to me but I... resisted the need to drink water cooling off my fongue so I could taste all the different flavors that the Meli-Melo dish wasbringing to my palate. I drank half of my glass of water after I finished my food. It wasn't the food was too spicy. I wastuning up for the must-order dessert, the Peignets! This is what I'm planning for my next visit here that I will start my mealwith the dessert first, then the entree. Read more
We have never had a bad dish here. It is always amazing. Favorite dishes include beignets with raspberry sauce, griyo(pork that... is so tender and tasty), sweet plantains, red beans and rice, oxtail curry, macaroni and cheese. It is also family owned by amincredibly sweet and friendly family. Read more
Praline Cheesecake is to die for. Our waiter was informative and friendly. Ordered Jamaican Patties (one beef and one chicken)... and fried Okra. Dont miss the Okra. Perfectly crunchy, no slime ;) Gumbo, greens are amazing. The gumbo was a good spin on NewOrleans... finished with cayenne and fresh herbs. Peach cobbler was great, but the cheesecake! I wanted to roll around in it.I was ready to fight my husband over the last bite. I want it for my last meal. Visit here, come casual and ready to enjoy somegreat food and great ambience! Read more
The food is tasty. To my surprise, the price is reasonable for the large portion. We ordered the eggplant creole and plantain... fritters, and we couldn't finish the fritters. There are 6 fritters (I didn't take a picture). We placed the order onlinethrough their website and picked up the food about 25 minutes later as being told upon submitting the online order. Easyordering experience and parking on Friday evening wasn't crowded. Read more
This place is excellent! I took my girlfriend here for Valentine's day, they were very very busy, but that's a sure sign that... there's something really good to come! I had the seafood fondue and my gf had seafood topped plantains for appetizers. 10/10would eat more of both of those and be happy! For our entrees, I had their Djon Djon rice with seafood, and my gf had theirgumbo. Both entrees were cooked to perfection and seasoned beautifully. We both were stuffed full by the end of our meal, but wemade sure to squeeze in dessert! I had the praline cheesecake and OMG was it good! And it was a huge slice! Realistically wecould have shared one slice and been happy, but she got a slice of chocolate cake and loved that too. We will definitely bevisiting again. Excellent service and amazing food in a very creative and fun environment. (If you sit outside, they have sandfrom the beach for you to sink your feet into) ????? Read more
We were finally able to visit this restaurant after moving to the area recently. Upon entering its quite a bit more quaint than... the big sign boasts. We were seated immediately and overjoyed with the choices the menu had to offer. Our waiter David wasamazing! He was attentive and very knowledgeable about not only the menu but the prep! He made our trip to this establishmentover the top perfect. My husband ordered the shrimp gumbo and I ordered the red snapper. Both were seasoned providing a uniquebut delish meal. The snapper came with red beans n rice and two plantains. We also enjoyed some Mac n cheese & greens for thefull experience. Many who have tried Jamaican or similar foods know that no two recipes are the same. Most seem to be familyrecipes which provides a new and unique experience for each dish. Definitely give this little restaurant a try! No mixdrinks/hard liquor tho :( even with the nice patio dining they provide. Read more
