Paradise Jamaican Restaurant and Pizza

Joshua Williams

Mannn where to start first all Oxtails and Jerk Chicken on a pizza is crazy work. Not only is the pizza beyond amazing but it’s worth the hype and price. The fried snapper is seasoned to perfection and bursting with nothing but flavor. Paradise is one of the best Caribbean restaurants out there next to Negril on Silver Star Road. A must try for show.

I tried the oxtail pizza today. It was 10 out of 10. I’ve always loved oxtail, but never considered Trying on pizza, but I decided to be adventurous and definitely paid off.

Very delicious 😋 Oxtails pizza

Jamaican cuisine that is so rich in flavor. Love that the menu had both Jamaican food and specialty pizzas. The price is right for what you order. Lunch specials are a great deal. The oxtail pizza is extremely delicious.

I highly recommend this place! Def 10000 out of 10!!! I’ve gone 2 days in a row. Amazing customer service and the food is awesome! This is def my new go to spot! Shout out to Garfield I believe his name was!

Drove about 40 minutes to try their jerk chicken/oxtail pizza! I called my order in so there was no wait time the food was amazing! I also had the conch soup and will definitely be back for more! Everyone was friendly! Great experience!

Food is really good here as well as the prices. Customer service could use some fine tuning. Also the speed in which the pizza orders are fulfilled definitely needs an upgrade.

They were nice. Had oxtail, and jerk chicken pizza. They were excellent. Patties taste great. Can get a little busy, but that's a good thing.

I saw a video on TikTok about this place and their oxtail pizza and I wanted to give it a try. They did not disappoint, it was AMAZING!! I love the oxtail sauce and oxtail itself was absolutely perfect. It was worth the 30 minute drive. 10/10 🙌🏾🙌🏾

It seems like they did two things; #1 Took the time to cook food and PRICE IT RIGHT.. #2 Tasted REAL Jamaican food and made sure to make it better. (Not kidding) -- I would say the BEST!

Paradise Pizza & Jamaican Restaurant in Apopka is AMAZING! The food is delicious, clean, and full of flavor. From their jerk chicken pizza to rice and peas, everything is top-notch. The customer service is excellent—the manager and owner are so kind and welcoming. Lori is absolutely wonderful, with such a great personality. I truly love her and this place. If you’re looking for great food and a great atmosphere, this is the spot! ❤️🍕🇯🇲

My family love it here. My sons loves the rice and peas, and my daughter loves the patties. This food is great, the owners are very kind people, and they treated us like family when we arrived. The pizza is one of the best fushions I've ever experienced. The Oxtail & Jerk Chicken pizza will make me a customer for life.

I'm happy to find a place that hits all the flavors and Lori is amazing!! We have been looking for Jamaican food near Apopka and this is a must if you are looking for the same. We are no longer looking because this is it! The inside has a small dine-in area which extends out front. Clean environment and chilled atmosphere. I love it and will be back as long as Lori is there.

My family & I decided to live on the wild side today & chose to try the oxtail pizza & jerk chicken pizza. All I can say is Oh My God, the Bomb. I was a little apprehensive with the $30 charge, but by all means it was worth it both pizzas together ended up being $55 in change but my God I’m extremely happy and we will be back next weekend. For those of you that want to experience pure heaven on earth that love the Jamaican flair you must try💯💯💯5🌟

It's busy here so it's best to call before hand. We walked in to order, which took 30 minutes. We ordered the jerk chicken pizza and the oxtail pizza. The service is nice all around and very clean.

First time visiting on 01/16/2025 which was a Friday night. Parking was tight but doable. Preface, we preordered our food. Upon entering, it was a mad house in a good way. Our food was quite ready and this allowed us to look around and take it all in. Anyhow, we ordered the oxtails and jerk chicken with rice and peas and cabbage. Get back to the food later. The restaurant inside eating is small and has only two booths and both were being occupied by take out customers (bummer). We wanted to sit down. Now checking out was interesting. The young lady had gloves on. Either she wanted to protect her nails or she thought by having them on it was sanitary. I say this because she never changed them out while handling food, working the register or taking orders. Maximum cross contamination. The food….oxtails were NOT tender off the bone. They were quite tough meaning someone pulled them too soon. Major disappointment. Now, the chicken was very good. along with everything else. Also, had a couple of beef patties —- tasty! Overall the experience in a small Jamaican restaurant was to be expected with the constant traffic. Will we return? Absolutely, we want to experience some good oxtails as I know they are capable of making them properly. Will update soon!

I finally tried this place and the taste of the food was great. I ordered a large oxtail dinner and red pea soup. Everything was seasoned well and tasted delicious. I have 2 complaints. The portion size of the oxtail dinner was not adequate compared to the $24 they charge. Definitely not enough food for the price. The soup was… it was broth. There wasn’t any dumplings or red peas in it. I think Thais disappointed me more than the oxtail dinner. My mistake was that I didn’t check my food before I left.

I received the brown stew chicken very good flavor but way too spicy also purchased the oxtail Pizza. It was very good, but the only thing I didn't like is that instead of him giving me the Pizza i order. That was cooking for me. He gave me a Pizza that was already prepared for another customer ,meaning it was sitting on top of the oven! so Iit was giving to me. I cold.!!! .you shouldnt switch tickets.hot in fresh is better ! Also pizza should cook a bit longer so that the crust is a bit crispy and not gummie.

Tried it due to Viral Tik Tok. Definetly a lie. I ordered the Jerk Pizza and it tasted like left over chicken thrown onto a cheese pizza. Thats It. No other flavors to bring out the true carribean flavors. Dissapointed. I will give it another try with Oxtail Pizza later.

Too many people have been hyping this place up on social media, I love oxtail, curry, and jerk chicken, I place an order with this place at 7, arrived at 7:40 to find out they hadn’t even started on the oxtail pizza. I didn’t get my pizza until 9 and the whole time they couldn’t tell me how long it would take. They just said “one moment, it’s almost ready . The food wasn’t bad but the service and wait was awful. Plus kinda overpriced. Seanas in Orlando charges less and serves more food and they’re better. This place lost my business.

Worst place to pick up a DoorDash! They are not coordinated everything is a mess. They take forever to gave the food or the pizza ready! Never again.
