Reviews for De Island Shop in Somerset, NJ
Food was really good, but definitely not fresh at all. I enjoyed the beef and veggie patties. The plantains were cold and soggy,... the shrimp and goat roti were good but the roti on both plates was not eatable at all, soon as I picked it up it startedcrumbling. Very disappointed! Read more
Food was good. Except macaroni. IT WAS TRASH. My baked Mac & Cheese taste better than that ????. Excessive wait time..so make... sure to call your order in beforehand. Would order again Read more
Excellent customer service, always remember my face when I order. I had been eating here for over 20 years, when they was on... Hamilton St. and they was a small little shop. The Food is ALWAYS good, I only trust their Ackee & Saltfish. Since their closedright now because of this Pandemic, I'm suffering! I don't eat anyone else..???????? I love you Island Breeze! ????????????Can't wait until y'all back up. Have my favorite dish, I have been continuing to come here every since they opened up again. Read more
I just had dinner at this lovely spot and I have to say it was amazing. I ordered curry beef and it came with rice & peas,... cabbage and plantain. I don't even eat cabbage, but baby let me tell you, whatever they did made this cabbage so tasty. Iordered the rum punch and it was very good and strong.The woman who served me was so nice and polite. When night fell theyturned on the lights on the patio and a dj started playing reggae music. I felt like I was on a Carribean island, just kickingback and enjoying myself. I met some very nice people who are regulars and just had a very nice time here. I'm not from N.J. butI've already made plans to return and bring some family with me. I recommend this place ????% Read more
We enjoy grabbing food from Da Island Breeze/Shop particularly the salmon and jerk chicken as they are always flavorful and have... a nice spice to them. The rice and peas are equally good and a staple of this place. Great place for some authentic WestIndian food. The front staff is friendly and nice enough. If you have a taste for a particular item it?s best to call ahead asI think they only make a certain amount of each item per day so you could lose out if you are ordering certain things late inthe day.

Dine in is not available here. If you are looking for some carribean food in the area than I strongly suggest that you order... ahead as there is always a wait time. The good thing about this place is that the food is good, the prices are fair and imo youget your money's worth. My favorite dish to order is the reggae shrimp, curry goat or their beef patties. I usually substitutethe rice for the mac and cheese pie and it is very good. Read more

I absolutely love mac and cheese, this mac and cheesewas nasty not good at all, like not all..wouldn?t order here again. Read more
