User Reviews

I had the pleasure of meeting the owners and I must say there’s a reason they are open for so long 42 years!!! I ordered a mini jerk chicken and it was delicious! I love spicy food and it had just the right amount of spice to it. Come eat here you won’t regret it

This is some of the worse Jamaican food I have ever had. The curry chicken was pink and uncooked and no flavor at all. The Rice n Peas was so salty it was also inedible. Complete waste of money.

Im always skeptical of ordering from restaurants that have very large menus because they never seem to master one particular dish. I ordered on Grub Hub. Order came in a timely fashion. Unfortunately their plating sizes do not match up to their pricing. The small dish pictured is a $17.00 large order of oxtails. It comes in a small container. Gravy is good but the meat is chewy. Mac & cheese consistency is great but it is flavorless. Rice and beans aren’t too bad a little hard but not terrible. I feel as though I’m eating leftovers.

This is a small place in east orange. The owner is amazing and her food is an experience: I usually get the fish with Mac and Cheese. Will recommend if you are in the area. You should call. Takes a while for food to be ready but is worth the wait. Get for soul food lovers!

I ordered here in error and reached out to the restaurant for them to lie to me about not being able to cancel my order. I must mention I reached out to DoorDash and when they contacted the restaurant so that I could be issued a refund, they proceeded to informing them that my order is completed. $50 gone, fast forward to me contacting the restaurant again to get yelled at by the owner because robbing a customer matters more than the integrity of the establishment. I recommend no one order from this place. They are frauds, they steal your money, I don’t know what I expected from a place where the reviews complain about roaches. Disgusting.

Bravo's cafe is a rare gem! I've had the pleasure of ordering from this restaurant twice and was more than happy both times. The food is fresh, well seasoned, and very delicious. Smaller restaurants like these don't get the credit they deserve. Thank you very much to the chefs. Please visit you wont be disappointed. **PS...I ordered the large fried whiting, collard greens, yams, mac & cheese, and corn bread! It was so so good.

Super friendly, food is delicious & prepared fresh!! Jerk chicken is most definitely my favorite ❤️ 10/10 wont be disappointed

I ordered oxtail, rice and peas, cabbage and side order of fries. There were 3 peas in the rice, the oxtail and cabbage were fair and the fries were undercooked, mostly white.
