Island Tingz Caribbean Grill

This food was so good, after eating it I was in a Thanksgiving dinner after trans... I am glad I sat towards the back, babe I ate that chicken with my fingers. The curry chicken reminded me of good chicken dumplings without dumplings and the jerk chicken flavor had a subtle bbq taste. It was uhm uhm uhm satisfying good. The vegetables blended perfectly in the rice. The cabbage was served with thin slices of carrots, all I needed was cornbread to mix in it. My stomach was satisfied and my mouth enjoyed each and every bite. FYI it is pricey, but it is worth it. I had two glasses of Jamaican punch. If you do not know about it, shame on you. You will not be disappointed. Customer service was excellent! Plenty of booths and tables, plus patio dining. A great spot for a date, no matter what day of the week it is. Everything was great!

I have driven by Island Tingz so many times and have told myself to stop by...Last night, I finally did and was not disappointed! While walking up I saw people dancing and heard the music jamming! It was a whole vibe on a Friday night. I ordered at the counter for takeout. It did not take me long to decide what I wanted and order my meal. My food came out quick and was hot! They have great portions for a great price! My food was so delicious. I will be back soon!!

First time trying Island Tingz and I was glad they exceeded my expectations. First the customer service from the owners made all of the difference, they were very personable and didn't mind answering any questions. Next was the deliciousness of the food. I had the oxtails, jerk pork chop, fried fish and the coconut shrimp. My favorite sides were the Mac 'cheese and the cabbage. Everything was great and the ambiance experience was even greater.

I have not been to this spot since it was a Cajun restaurant. It's now changed hands 2 times since then. I hope this business stays a while though. The interior is all decked out with Jamaican colors and they have a full bar. I didn't see a menu of drinks, but I visited during lunch and there was no customers dining in, except for me. They seem to be mostly takeout, at least during weekday lunch hours.They have a small lunch menu of mostly chicken items, so I took advantage and ordered the jerk chicken. My 2 sides were rice and peas and plantains. The flavor of the jerk chicken was really good and was just a little spicy, but not so much I couldn't eat it or feel uncomfortable. I really enjoyed the chicken since it was very tender. You receive 2 pieces, a leg and a thigh; the thigh was chopped into 3 pieces. The rice and peas are good and pretty standard as a side. The plantains were very delicious, but this is also one of my favorite sides when eating Jamaican or Columbian food.I also added a drink. They don't have a soda fountain, only a cooler near the register with bottled beverages. They were out of my first two choices during my visit, so I went with a pineapple guava drink which was delicious. All of their bottled drinks in the cooler are imported from Jamaica, so you are getting the real deal.Service is friendly. Even while dining in, you will receive your meal in a to-go container. No points for presentation, they are all about the flavor of the food here.Not my average lunch, but I really enjoyed it. Luckily I visited for lunch, I was able to dine for less than $15. Northeast Houston certainly has a void in Jamaican restaurants, so it's a welcome spot for the Humble area.

In town for work and decided to give this place a try based on the positive reviews. I got the 2 meat combo- ox tails and jerk chicken. They actually forgot the jerk chicken but happily gave me a generous portion of it when I pointed it out. I was surprised by how much oxtail I got! Picture doesn't do it justice. Friendly and attentive service and good vibes. Loved the music. Seems like this place is also a hookah bar, if that's your thing.

The restaurant and bathrooms are clean. Nice Jamaican music played. Ambiance I rated 6 out of 10. There were very few dine-in customers at 3 pm on a Saturday. The cashier did not understand English. No one greeted us. We asked to dine-in and was told to make our order with the cashier. She continued to play on her phone. She was not able to answer any of our questions about the menu. This was our first time at the restaurant. So she asked the cook to help us. He came from the kitchen looking annoyed rolling his eyes toward the ceiling. I only wanted to know if the fried chicken was white and dark meat. Which he seemed confused about until I asked was the fried chicken legs and thighs only, which they are. In fact all the chicken is dark meat, that may explain the reviews of not getting jerk wings, but legs and thighs, when ordering wings. We ordered and seated ourselves. Customer service was 2 out of 10. Less than 5 minutes after sitting down they called our name. The cashier stated oh your dining in. She said I will bring your food. All food is served in to-go containers. I ordered the fried chicken, peas and rice, and cabbage. The peas and rice were the stars of my plate. They were well seasoned. The chicken although it was seasoned well, was barely room temperature. The cabbage was cold. I was very disappointed, but I figured they seem to have a lot of pickup orders, so attention to orders being hot, may not be priority. I didn't complain I knew I would take the food home to heat up. I would rate the food 2 out of 10. My husband had the jerk chicken, peas and rice and plantains. My husband jerk chicken and peas and rice were delicious. It was very well seasoned and fresh. His plantains were cold; this was the worst thing on his plate. I ended up sharing my husband plate. Thank God he ordered the large plate. He rated the food 7 out of 10.If my food was fresh I would have rated my plate 8 out of 10. I rate restaurant over all on would I come back. The answer is NO! I hope the owner takes a look at this review and make some changes. The food is good, better customer service and increased quality control, would make this a restaurant one that we would visit often.

Thank god for good reviews because that's what landed me here and the food was amazing. Plenty of parking and the ambiance was nice and quiet when I went. I had the curry chicken with a side of Mac and cheese and cabbage and I don't regret not one item. The service was friendly and quick.

Decided to visit Island Tingz because I had a craving for Jamaican food. This was my first visit. I'm so glad this place is relatively close. It's located in a small plaza right on FM 1960. Cute place with plenty of parking. I was torn between my two favorites jerk or brown stew chicken. Thank goodness for the 2 meat combo. The meal did not disappoint! The amount of food I was given is enough to feed me for a few days. I will definitely return!

I've ordered this food twice and was impressed both times the portions are on point and all flavors are poppin. I definitely recommend this restaurant.

This was my first time eating from here. I ordered oxtails, rice and peas and cabbage. Everything was delicious.
