Open Caribbean Kitchen

I'm going to ruffle some feathers with this one, but skip the plates and get the tacos.The plate wasn't bad at all, it's just that the taco was mind blowing. I tried the shrimp taco and I'm excited to go back and try the chicken. I think the price for the plate is just a little high compared to the tacos. I did take away an additional star for the service. I was the only one there to pick up, and the lady kept talking over me or just ignoring me. I felt like I was unwanted there, and the way she spoke to the DoorDash drivers gave me the vibe that this is how it always is. It is a little pricey, but if you're getting the tacos, I would say it's worth it. This spot has a dining room, but with the hostile vibe, I wouldn't encourage staying there. They also have a cash only sign but I ordered online. Overall, I have mixed feelings, but would consider going back to pick up tacos.

This was a hole in the wall restaurant I stumbled upon! I got the jerk tacks and they were very flavorful and spicy. And additionally, I got plantains with a friend. I would check this place out again!

My friend and I went to Open Caribbean Kitchen after ordering a few minutes from closing time. They graciously answered the phone and took our orders. They said it would be 15 minutes so we drove over there. We both got the jerk chicken meals and when we arrived they were still cooking the food. The outside of the building is very unassuming, the inside is definitely a lot bigger than you'd think. I didn't take any pictures of the food but it was the jerk chicken wings, a side of rice and a special jerk sauce. My friend had the sauce, I couldn't because it's dairy based. He thought it was delicious but honestly I didn't think the food needed it. Even the plain white rice which I'm not normally a fan of was seasoned to perfection. Everything was reasonably priced for the portions you get. Just remember to bring cash when you go!

We finally made it over to Open Caribbean Kitchen. This place has been on our list to try for a few months & it did not disappoint! Service was great, food was incredible. We pulled up right out front & parked. We walked in, placed our order to go, & waited about 10-15 minutes. While we were waiting a few other people came in to pick up their to go orders. And a few others came in to place their to go orders. We ordered the jerk chicken wings dinner with rice & veggies, as well as the oxtail dinner with rice & potatoes. Each item was full of flavor & absolutely delicious. I highly recommend the jerk chicken wings. They were juicy, flavorful, & the perfect amount. And that sauce on the rice? Amazing. We will definitely be back!

These are the places I'm looking for in Louisville. OCK, is an unsuspecting hole-in-wall with incredible food. I had shrimp and grits, my partner had the oxtail jerk chicken - and of course the front lady was nice, helpful, and fun to chat with - we'll be back to try more!

The food is very good and portions are really nice however it becomes pricey when you opt for a staple traditional side like rice and beans or cabbage (which is fire!!). I understand an upcharge for upgrading from white rice and mixed vegetables, but to pay the cost of a side is a bit much. I would definitely recommend checking them out, but be ready to spend between $70 & $100 for two ppl. They may see me again.

Wonderful experience food was great. I had the jerk chicken plate with a side of cabbage this place is a must the guy working was on point customer service as well as food service. Gotta give this place a try!!!!!

Every dish we have tried was so full of flavor!!! The special sauce, they use on the side , is so delicious! Very nice/helpful people, that help us choose a meal, each time we ,have dined with them. The servings are huge.

Food was hot, fresh, well marinated and seasoned. The beef patties are the best I've had in a very long time. I ordered the chicken and shrimp hibachi. It was too much food for one person and it is seasoned all the way through. I also ordered the oxtail, shrimp and steak plate with rice. The rice was seasoned, the steak was tender and well seasoned. The oxtails were I've been looking for some good carribean for a while and this place hit the spot. Thank you!

DO NOT cater to this Aweful place. I should have checked reviews before going here! Owner I feel is prejudice refusing to wait on me white and my friend who is Asian. But low and behold everything we asked about on the menu she said she was out of and to come back another day! EVERYTHING she said she was out of even plantains but stood in front of us taking phone orders WOW! I'd give a negative rating on this establishment!
