Tyrz That Taurean Goddess!: When I heard that Sankofa claimed they have the “best oxtails around,” I had to try them. Let me say…. THEY did that!!!! The oxtails were cooked to perfection (as if blessed by great grandma on the other side)!!! The vegetables were firm and flavorful and the red beans and rice paired well for an impact of flavors that the ancestors would be proud of!!!!

Shaunda Murphy: So I drove all the way from 125th just to find out you were going to be closed! The website clearly said you were open! Had the website said you were going to be closed I wouldn't have wasted gas coming down there, yea I could have called to make sure,you were going to be open but that's why I checked the website!
Tristan K: My husband and I went here for his birthday. The owner was so sweet and hospitable. It was early for dinner, so we had the place to ourselves. The inside was clean and well decorated. It was reasonably priced with good portions. The Jamaican soda selections were delicious! I want to go back and try their mixed drinks.

Chance Burrow: I tried it for lunch last week, had the fish basket and it was horrible. They got it out fairly quick for hand breaded stuff which it was but the fish wasn’t good.

Shanice Hazley: This my favorite Caribbean place in KC. I always get brown stew, it’s the best brown stew. However, their prices went up to $18 and their portions got smaller. These past two plates I have gotten have been 4 small pieces of chicken. I used to get bigger portions. I thought since they increased prices, they would leave portion as normal or larger, not smaller. 😢
Thuc Ly: Huge portion, I split into 3 meals. It's simple, efficient, similar taste with meals in cafeteria back in my student life.

Sherona Hayden: Horrible!!! Customer service is non existence! We waited an hour just to be given the food to go. We got there at 7pm, ordered and wait till 8:15pm before we were served, there was no communication, I kept asking if our food wasn't ready as yet, no one even cared to respond. I would never go back here even if I was being paid. Please go where you're appreciated and where there's good customer service because this place isn't it!!

Martin Jenkins: I ordered a pan of oxtails and I must say it was the worst I I’ve ever had. Seems like there was rushed. Oxtails had a lot of fat on them and was tough. It was to the point to where my guest didn’t eat them because of all the fat. The highlight was the rice and beans. Wasted 178 dollars. Never again.
Le Aúndra Congregational Administrator: I've been to many Caribbean restaurants and Island Spice's Curry Chicken and Beef & Chicken Patties are the best in town. This is why I purchase several at a time. Keep up the good work and a thumbs up to the cooks - you all are doing your thang. Thank You... Just wish you were open on Sunday because I'm greedy like that...
S T: Food is ok. Nothing special and there are better places in town. I went there because I loved the service and friendliness from the sweet black girl who worked the front. She always made me feel so welcome and had a big beautiful smile. It broke my heart when I went there recently to find she no longer works there. I don't have an incentive to eat there anymore. I would love to know where that girl is now. I always loved chatting with her while I waited for my food.

G's Jamaican Quisine: what do users think?
Asiel Israel (Trucker Asiel): Good
Dasmine Joseph: Well best place I’ve ever gotten for jamacian food . So far my favorite place to eat and I’m a very picky eater and I don’t usually do food reviews but they do deserve my review. They only had one couple and whole restaurant isn’t has busy. All and all FOOD IS BUSSIN ❤️ and service is okay. But I do plan on coming here and bring my family to have a good time. Love the music vibes, love how the place reminds me of being back at home. If felt like I was dinning in an island restaurant in Guam. Highly recommend for those who misses home for islanders who are far away 🇬🇺🇫🇲 even customers who want to feel a different experience. OXTAILS AND BEAN AND RICE 🙌

k kaila: If you’re not eating at G’s Jamaican Quisine you’re missing out. Every meat dish is literally falling off the bone and so flavorful. From the curry chicken and ox tails to the brown stew chicken. Every dish was cooked to perfection. The red beans and rice will be my kryptonite and the ox tails… well they’re indescribable. Everyone behind the counter was so welcoming and kind. Not only will I be back, I’ll be making regular appearances.
Roche' Burrell: Good food, good people!!

Wah Gwan: what do users think?
Chez: Omg!! The ox-tail is on a different level!🔥I ate the ox tail dinner with a side order of FuFu. Delicious.The restaurant looks nice from front to back. I met the Owner/Chef and She is very nice, professional and down to earth person. Her supporting staff is great, including her sister, who has good attention to detail.Next time I’m trying the goat!
Keithley Lake: Best jerk chicken I have had in Kansas City, the plantains were also cooked perfectly. The rice dishes were a little Bland, but when I added the jerk "au jous" to the rice and peas it turned out excellent as well.
George Pettigrew: Nicely detailed with friendly people and magnificent food! Your first time won't be your last time.Parking: Parking is located in the rear of the restaurant. No street parking.

John Adams: Holy moley, I can't rave about this place enough! Excellent menu with ridiculously flavorful food and a service style that made me feel like a member of the family the instant I walked in. The tofu dish was sweet and crispy, jerk chicken was tender, medium spicy, and as juicy as you can possibly make chicken, and the fufu with egusi is packed with unique flavors and textures. Get here now, Kansas City! Tan and Wing are absolutely killing it!Parking: Small parking lot in rear with a back entrance
Rodney Leftwich: Very disappointed. First time eating the food from here and the order didn’t include what it said it would. Sides with an (s) means not just cabbage. I paid $75 for two meals and I didn’t get what was advertised. Why would I NOT want all my sides? Why not include what I paid for? Is $75 not enough to have paid for two meals to include my sides? And then to insult my wife’s intelligence when she called to inquire about the MISSING FOOD.
Marlene Love: DO NOT BUY FROM HERE ON UBEREATS THEY ARE NOT SELLING WHAT THEY ARE ADVERTISING. and that’s wrong. The manager didn’t care when I called about but admitted that they’ve changed their meals options but didn’t update the site. How is that fair to me? Why not replace my meal? My first time ordering and FOR SURE MY LAST. WRONG IS WRONG. SELL WHAT YOU ADVERTISE DONT INTENTIONALLY MISLEAD AND THEN BE DISMISSIVE and not take accountability. So upsetting trying to be nice and patronize this business just to be disregarded after being called out on the FALSE ADVERTISEMENT

Liz LuPi: They offer Nigerian and Jamaican food. Very different on how they are cooked and flavors, lots of Caribbean spices that bring a burst of different flavors, very delicious. I do warn it is spicy, some will have a kick and some will make you sweat even from your ears. They also offer a natural juice drink that is worth trying. If you want to have the whole experience, this is the place to go. Helpful hint, they DO have parking and are on the backside, also when you arrive go to the counter and let the owner know for them to give you the menu and get the order.

Erie Williams: I went there for the first time today and will never go back. I must say the customer service was great but if that was on the menu i would have paid for it. But I ordered the oxtails with rice and cabbage . The cabbage was hard with no season, the oxtails were tough and I could not find the meat in them it was all fat. I wish they had neck bones they may have been better and more meat. So no I will not be back and I drove on my lunch break to the place because it did look good on the website, and I saw the 5 star rating but had no idea the it would not be worth anything but the free pleasant customer service.

Tonisha Couser: I went tonight for the first and had pepper steak and rice and it was delicious 😋. Customer service is on point and the music 🎶 was a vibe.
jocelyn merritt: I tried this place for the first time today. I was eager to try it after receiving a word of mouth recommendation I purchased ox tails and jerked chicken with two beef Pattie’s. I was courteous and left a 15% tip. Once i was settled and had a chance to eat, i tried my oxtails and was disappointed. The flavor was fine but they were very tough. I called and asked if I could come back to get jerked chicken in place of the ox tails and was told since I already took them, I was SOL. I had no way of knowing the food would be nasty until I tasted it. Needless to say, I will not be back. P.S. The Jerked chicken was pretty good. I may have felt better if I received better service.
Leilani Haywood: I got the Jerk Chicken and Plantains. The chicken and plantains were delicious. Generous portions. Great service, I will be back!
George Davis: Jerry chicken and Oxtails were very good!!
TaSheena Gatlin: Oxtails are amazing Also curry chicken

J H: Very authentic JA food! So happy I found this place, woman at the front counter was very helpful. Food is delicious, and the portions are very large. Oxtail was nice, curry goat was perfect!
L Cotton: The food was SOOOOO good! Large portions. I couldn't even finish the medium dinner. I had the curry chicken and my husband had the ox tail. We were both very pleased. Will be coming back. This is a #BOB
Joy-Ann Profitt: Yesterday I bought a fried chicken dinner, never again..never again and never again. 1) The woman at the register doesn't show the customer their food (open the box and show the food) 2) when I got home (I wish I can show pictures) and opened the box I was upset to the utmost. Your current cook doesn't know how to cook, who fries chicken and it's soggy soggy....chicken should be crispy. The food had NO flavor not even the cats around my house want it.

Taste Island Grill: what do users think?
Brittany Buckner: Can’t find a beef patty that’s actually decently edible in KC and this place I’ve tried more than once. The shell was hard, I had to break the edges off. I literally didn’t even eat the second beef patty because of disappointment. There comes a point in time where you would think the business recognizes that they’re putting out a very lame subpar product and maybe take corrective measures. But no this beef patty continues to disappoint and I think I go here because it’s close to my house, but no more. Hoping the rice and beans will be better but I haven’t tried them yet and they only have Coco bread sometimes.
Damilleo Stacks: Great food! Great environment! Small and intimate space. I am in love with their sweet plantains. The size varies but they have never been anything other than delicious for me.I usually get the tacos (Zoe Pound & Deep Sea) but they season everything perfectly! 4 Stars!

Megan Cleary: We had the Reggae Vibes and Good Life bowls, the sweet plantains, and the citrus green and hibiscus juices. Everything was superb and fresh- the juices were absolutely delicious.

I was annoyed because I checked your business hours before leaving, which showed you were open according to Google; when in fact you weren't.I'm sure you could understand the frustration in that.

ReShawn Beard: Showed up around 1:00 on a Saturday. While very cute, therestaurant was EXTREMELY cold (31 outside and not much warmer inside). Ordered approximately $30 worth of food: carnival, beef patty, and sweet plantains. As soon as payment was complete I started hearing the microwave in the back incessantly opening and closing. Received my food and realized why... $30 worth of microwaved leftovers. Talk about HIGHLY disappointed. Patty was no better than the ones you buy in the frozen section... curry on the entree was "dry" and lacking flavor and the whole thing was unrecognizable minus the peas and carrots. With every attempt to get a bite, the whole thing turned to mush (evidence of how many times it's been re-heated). Sweet plantains were decent, not really sweet but that's not their fault. Overall, it's a big fat NOOO! TOO EXPENSIVE TO BE GIVING WHAT WASNT WANTED YESTERDAY, TODAY!!
Renea Love: Cute wooded like restaurant. I ordered the island life for $11 thinking it was going to be good cause I’ve never had jerk tacos , you can’t go wrong with jerk chicken right ?? With all due respect these are the most disgusting spicy jerk tacos . I asked the Indian girl that was training the new girl could I get a refund or get something different because I don’t like it and she stared at me like a deer in headlights and said just throw it . I asked nicely if I could exchange it and she said no I would have to pay for a new meal . I asked her if I could try a sample of the curry coconut chicken and she hesitated but let me try and again MORE DISGUSTING 🤢. Customer service poor because I asked her what do they do for customers that’s unsatisfied about the food and she just looked at me as if she was irritated that I was even talking to her and I asked her why do she lack humility and she sarcastically asked me if I wanted to try something else and I told her no because of her unwelcoming demeanor , lack of hospitality and the quality of food is poor and taste like vomit . She stated it’s been sitting since morning and have warmers . Again the food is not tasty or flavorful at all and I wanted this to be a good experience with a positive review. I wont recommend to anyone and I won’t be back , Respectfully .
Daniel Antoine: I love coming here…my kids love the food I can’t complain… I’m never disappointed
Esperanza Vite: Food was great, not the most flavorful jerk chicken bowl but still good. Their juices they make are very good! Lots of options to try it out multiple times. It is kind of hidden but you’ll see the menu pictures outside the door.
REVIEW with JACKIE: This Jamaican Spot has the best food. Everything was fresh. And the prices are very reasonable. I will definitely recommend this place. 10/10
Authentic Chat Box: Yo the plantain was burnt and didn’t look close as the picture he must’ve left in there to long
DaLeah Morris: Good flavor and tastyRecommended dishes Island Life - Jerk Chicken Tacos …More
Jesse Kates: Great food, but they refuse to serve water and insist that you buy disposable bottles. Pretty sure that’s not even legal, plus it’s a wasteful and environmentally destructive policy.
Twakisha Jones: This food was gross!!! Whomever cooked this dog food must have been born without taste buds. The meat tasted like a rubber band or a small cubes of good year tires.
