Just had Marlene's brown stew chicken. It was delicious! My husband had oxtails and they were fork tender and not greasy! He's... already looking forward to coming back and trying the curry goat, since the ox tails were so delicious! I'm coming back to trythe jerk pork! We will definitely be back. Can't wait! Read more

I was craving some oxtail w rice &peas, and steamed cabbage and LAKELAND CAME THRU. This deliciousness (and beef patty-not... pictured) came from Marlene's Takeout on Memorial. This deliciousness made my Caribbean self oh so happy. I HIGHLY recommend. ???????????????? Read more

Very nice lady and very clean. Nice portions. I ordered the curry chicken with rice and peas...I guess the rice and peas hadn't... finished cooking because the rice was still hard on the outside. I couldn't really taste the curry. The Mac & cheese was saltywith a thick layer of dried cheese on top. I literally peeled it off still in tact. And the cabbage was greesy. I don't knowmaybe I went on the wrong day or something. I don't think I'll go back. Read more

The restaurant sits on the corner in a tiny plaza. The inside is huge and very clean. Pros: curry goat was good, nice portion,... nice taste, and cooked well. The owner is really nice and the order was made quick. Cons: Parking can be tough if full, therice/beans were a little to hard, and the sauce wasn't thick enough for me so I barely had any sauce. Overall the food wasdecent. Read more
