You could sneeze and miss this place in the plaza, so keep your eyes open because it's worth it. I stopped here for lunch during a training one day and had the curry goat lunch special. That comes with cabbage, rice and peas, and I added plantains to it. I tried to tell myself I would only eat half of it and save the rest for lunch the next day. However, I gobbled the whole dish up like the Cookie Monster and loved every second of it. (My iPhone autocorrected Cookie Monster and capitalized it... Weird.) The goat was tender and the sauce was perfect. Paired with the rice and/or cabbage, it was even better. Their plantains were perfectly soft and rash! I'm two for two this month with trying out curry goat at Jamaican restaurants, and I highly encourage you to bask in the tastiness!

Honestly, I don't have much to say about this place other than it was really tasty. They have patties, roti, and more and the staff was pretty friendly. You can also sit inside the restaurant if you want. I may return when I'm back on that side of town because the food was definitely delicious.

Having tried 3 other Island food places in St. Pete (? on Central Ave, Randy's on US19&13 AV N, ? on US19&22nd AV S), this is by far my favorite one. Surprisingly, this is a franchise. The original has a very inspiring background story; I learned about susu, ""using the Jamaican concept of susu, whereby everyone pitched in $100 a week to raise start-up money after banks refused them a loan." Dine-in? Maybe. There are a couple of tables & a few chairs. Food? Delicious. So very tender meats & and very flavorful spices. Ox tail, curry chicken, jerk chicken (too spicy for me), and many more. Each meal comes with a plateful of rice&beans (yum), sauteed cabbage (yum), and fried plaintains (yum!). You can ask for other veggies in place of rice&beans. Drinks? Ginger beer. carrot juice w/ ginger, soursop w/ ginger, other fruits w/ ginger...and your regular high frutose corn sugar stuff. Dessert? Carrot cake, chocolate cake, other cakes. Not much of a cake person so I haven't tried them yet.

I could have written about any other place for my 500th review but I need to write about Golden Crust because I DIDN'T get the patty..I got the Curry Chicken dinner as well as the Jerk Chicken. The small plate could feed three. Jerk Chicken comes with what I call 'dirty rice and beans and plantains as does the Curry Chicken. Satisfying my desire to have something uniquely different. Monte, one of the owners, told me the place has existed for four years but I've only been here for over a year. Living in San Francisco one could completely ignore a place like this (yes, it tis in a strip mall but DO NOT IGNORE!!) Wonderful food and reasonable. The Reggae music here is worth just ordering tea and one of their pastries..I and I love to dance!

The service was not so good as I think the lady could have cared less if she had a customer or not. But the tasty little patties were pretty delicious. I had the veggie patty and dang, for a little over $1, it was pretty amazing! Cool place in a weird strip mall. Check it out for lunch or a snack.
