Gisele's Caribeyond Restaurant

I was told Caribeyond has good Haitian food so I had to come see for myself. The location is tucked in a small plaza with plenty of parking. When you first walk in Haitian music is playing at a moderate level. The aromas of the food is amazing and the restaurant is clean. There are tables set up for small and large parties, and they even have a pool table. The cashier was welcoming, provided menus and answered all the questions I had. After a few minutes I decided to order the fried kabrit fritay. The dish came with pikliz (pickled peppers) fried kabrit (goat) , marinade ( fritters) and akra (a root vegetable yautia). I also got a side of diri blanc and sauce pois blanc ( white rice and white bean sauce). For my drink I went with Couronne. Haiti's brand of fruit champagne soda. Overall I'm rating 9/10. The rice and bean sauce could have been better but it wasn't horrible. The rest of the dish was so amazing. I also loved how their pikliz was not overly spicy and enjoyable with the rest of the platter.Definitely recommend. I know the restaurant offers cuisine from other countries on their menu, but this is primarily a Haitian restaurant so I would highly recommend ordering Haitian food. You will not be disappointed.

The Food was VERY underwhelming. I ordered fried chicken and rice, I was served fried chicken and fries. The rice has the strong taste of coconut milk as if it was rushed. Chicken was just ok. My niece ordered macaroni and she said it lacked flavor. I believe the restaurant has not been open for an extended period of time because it seemed as though the staff is still working out early kinks to get going. We ordered waters but there are only water bottles for sale. we dined in but everything comes in to-go boxes, which is indicative of a restaurant that is more catered to phone orders than actual dine in patrons. The place is set us like an old dancehall so I'm guessing they host events there?

I wish I could give zero stars for the way I was just robbed. I ordered the oxtail which came with a whole pound of rice and peas, which was dried out from being microwave and some old cabbage which also was dried out from being microwave and on top of that the oxtail only came with two tails for $24.37. I would not recommend going here.

Caribeyond was just okay to me. I ended up ordering jerk wings with rice and peas and cabbage. I also got a side of mac and cheese. There was quite a bit of a wait. I also happened to arrive during a busy time because there was a large group there placing orders.After finally getting my food and getting home, I dug in. I didn't really care for the taste of the cabbage. The mac and cheese wasn't as cheesy as I thought it would be. The wings were okay. It was just an okay, mediocre experience to me. I didn't have anything that would necessarily make me rush to return but it wasn't bad either.

I really want to support this place but, I am at my wits end on the food. It is so inconsistent. One day you can go in and it is spot on and at other times it is meh....

The food is ok . Trying to support local community and not drive to nearby cities. This was my second visit.Disappointed that there no lunch specials.

Extremely cleanI ordered. Jerk chicken & curry chicken The jerk chicken was very tasty & flavorful Curry chicken was okThe cabbage was on point not over cookedNow I'm not a expert on Jamaican food but I've been to 3 establishments in the area with the other on Main Street & another on Route 1 in LaurelThis 1 is my favorite Enjoy!

The food took over an hour to come out, despite us being the only customers in the restaurant. When it finally did, some of our dishes were barely warm. They forgot half of our order and actually asked us (again, after an hour of waiting in an empty restaurant) which dishes we were missing. At some point in the hour that we spent waiting, they began to offer us tea and other drinks, implying that they were a courtesy to thank us for dealing with the wait and that they would be comped. They were not.I got the curry goat, which tasted alright, but was a microscopic portion (especially given the $22 price tag) and I left hungry.I don't usually leave reviews on restaurants, but I left this place feeling genuinely scammed. Avoid this place.

I ordered jerk chicken from here and I heard them microwaving it in the back over priced for basically reheated leftovers quality food.

Very poor customer service, it's like they want money to walk out the door. The rolling of the eyes when taking order was beyond me. The food is hella expensive, it's just going down. I'm glad that two other Caribbean spots are now located in Columbia.
