Calabash

Spicy curry chicken or goat, peas & rice, plantains. Yum yum yum! The owner, Ms Kitty Mann, is a sweetie who wants people to relax with sidewalk dining and enjoy healthy food.The kitchen is open and very clean. I like the vibe here... and the food!

This is my first time here. I am choosing the vegan option. I was the only one here so service is good. It's takeout only. Will let tou know what I think later. So far carrot juice is good.

I've been to this restaurant a few times to get takeout and truly enjoyed everything I ever got from them. I felt like having their food for dinner tonight so I stopped off on the way home and was sorely disappointed to see that the place was locked up there was in fact a padlock on the door by the doorknob. So I guess they're out of business, because I can't see any restaurant at 5:00 in the afternoon on a Thursday not be ready to start serving for dinner. I'm truly sad.

The service was extremely friendly! Donna greets you with a warm smile and takes your order. Mr. Mike provides the tasty dishes from Jamaica (loved the tender jerk chicken and brown stew chicken). I love that he cooks the rice and peas perfectly, just like my Jamaican-born grandmother, with a hint of coconut! Many of the Caribbean restaurant in the states do not add the coconut to the rice. I will frequent this local business when craving traditional Jamaican dishes!

I found this place on a happy accident and I am SO glad I did. Had the oxtail dinner and it did not disappoint, it was so flavorful and delicious. It was my guests' first time having Jamaican food and now they're hooked and I have yet another reason to visit St. Pete!

I mean, seriously, so good. Finally open again after COVID. The staff is so friendly. But the food...oh my. We had the jerk chicken and the spice was perfect. We also had the oxtail. I was literally sucking on the bone. And the sauce/gravy-I got some bread so it wouldn't go to waste. Incredible portion sizes that are well worth the price.

I wanted to give it a 2, but I couldn't even do that....I ordered a $18 vegan plate. That's a little pricey to start with, without description m. But I have had many many great vegan dishes that are fun and not basic, that was just labeled vegan plate. So that price was good.... But was I wrong! I received my order (quickly. It was heavy box. I got excited. Thinking about some bean curry, some jerky flavored veggies, some rice and plantains, and just some different exciting dish...Nope nope nope. A platter stuffed with rice. I mean rice a week. And then littler plantains and little cabbage. Plus no flavor, no nothing. I called to make sure I got the right thing. The lady said yeah you get all veggies.. she said rice plantains and cabbage... Fault should fall on me for trusting a new business.--- I did call back after trying to eat it. The lady was nice and giving a refund.

This is one of th best oxtail stews I've had! They make a nice vegan rice for my husband.

The curry goat was divine, I absolutely adored the complexity of flavours and the deep spice that I miss in other Caribbean restaurants. The service was very quick and the lady at the front desk was sweet as can be. The outdoor seating was also an added plus. I absolutely recommend!

My husband and I stopped by for oxtail and curry goat and we were not disappointed. I ordered the oxtail with veggies rice and peas and the flavor of the oxtail was savory and the meat was tender. The veggies were delicious with a hint of vinegar and a spice of the scotch bonnet pepper. My husband had the curry goat with yellow rice and veggies and the flavor was amazing. I had to have a taste. the meat was very tender also and perfectly seasoned. We sat outside and ate until we were stuffed. We washed our food down with jamaican ginger beer and pineapple soda. I am definitely returning to this awesome place. Not to mention, the portion for a regular size was enough for leftovers for dinner. The service here was very nice and welcoming. I'm glad we stopped in for our first visit here. I didn't know its been opened for 3 years. It was worth the 25 mins drive from Clearwater.
