Check out my video on this place on YouTube !!! They're amazing !!! Very good stew chicken and rice and peas !!! Everything was perfect !! They're one of the best Jamaican Food spot I've ever had !!! And I've been to CT, MA, etc and am from NY. Nobody could compare !! Versatile Duplicity on YouTube.
Went today for lunch. 3 to go of oxtail, curry goat amd jerk chicken with rice peas n plantains. Phenomenal. Sauces were deep. Portions n prices more than worth it. Service was patient n informative. Wil come back.
We recently had them cater food for a large house party and Cravin Jamaican was a hit! We've ordered from here many times and love the food but we were impressed with how much everyone at the party were huge fans. My husband was actually not even able to get any jerk chicken because people devoured it so quickly! I'm very glad that we catered from Cravin. We also deeply appreciated that the owner came personally to drop off the food and came early at that. It was one less thing to worry about. Thanks again!
We ordered the jerk and fried chicken with rice and peas, plantains and a side of mac and cheese, everything was sooo delicious. I’m definitely coming back.
My curry goat with rice and peas, plantain was delicious today. MY daughter enjoyed her chicken . Well seasoned and I got value for my money. We had that with cold tropical rhythm juice.We chose to dine outside. A few bees visited but I fan them away. The place is clean and homely. Back ground radio/ music was soothing.The waitresses were pleasant and professional. Bathroom is clean. Totally recommend this place. I will definitely go back when go a cross again.
I got the BOGO Brown stew chicken today when I say Cravin did they thing! The flavors were great it was nice and hot white rice was fresh cabbage was a lil undercooked but it was still 🔥
Ordered for the first time for lunch today and was blown away by the jerk chicken over rice and plantains. The chicken fell right off the bone and had a fantastic jerk rub on it - not too spicy but a nice little kick. Rice was flavorful and moist and plantains were spot on. Looking forward to trying oxtail and patties next time - homemade ice cream in the freezer also looked intriguing. Highly recommend for any fan of authentic Jamaican food - will be coming back!
A little piece of paradise in Ossining! I have been meaning to try this place but didn’t get around to it. The food is Soooo gooood! I just wanted to order everything off the menu. Despite covid and not being able to dine in, the staff were super nice and accommodating. We ordered curry goat, brown stew chicken, a patty, Mac and cheese and plantain! Oh and a soup!! Delicious, I’ll be ordering for delivery!
I found myself up in Wappinger Falls for an event, on my way south back to the city I needed something to eat before dealing with Saturday afternoon traffic. I happened to stumble upon Cravin Jamaican Cuisine in Ossining online and decided to give them a try. A small little shop with a very attentive staff. I ordered a medium stew chicken and some chicken patties to go. The food was delicious and a generous portion, I had plenty left to take home. I was not as much of a fan of the patties as I was the stew. They were not bad, I just have had the opportunity to try several from all over as well as my sister makes some awesome ones. This was nice gem to find for both grab and go or a quick stop and grub on the spot. When in the area again I would Mine stopping by again, even if it’s just to grab to food to go. Just A Note: They have some ice cream (Jamaican run raisin and grape nut to name a couple) that I was interested in trying. However I was full and wouldn’t travel well. Maybe next time I’ll eat the ice cream and save the food. Lol.
I forgot to take a pic of my actual food but I always order a small. It’s tricky when they say small but the portions are big and the container is large. I think they should put it in a smaller container and price it lesser. This price for a small is too much like a medium price. Well I’ve been to places like Golden crust, Poppie’s Deli, Caribbean Thyme, Big Jerk & Richie rich. When you say small the prices range from $8-$10. Medium $15 above that’s their price range at Cravin. I don’t usually finish the food cause it’s a lot mostly rice. I don’t know maybe depending on what day or time I feel like the food I’m getting are leftover for the day. It’s tasty but not satisfying to my Jamaican food cravings. It’s a hit or miss. I can tell when a chicken is old versus fresh. I ordered jerk chicken , curried goat and so far it’s the fried chicken that I tasted and liked.
Ossining has mostly Spanish restaurants and we were lucky to come across this Carribean gem. Food is awesome and the place is nicely done. They have plenty of seating. Loved the goat curry with cabbage and white rice. Food was fresh and portions were generous. Loved the pickled cabbage and tender and flavorful meat. Sure to visit again.
Healthy comfort genuine Jamaican Cuisine. They serve a hefty portion well worth the price. The locale and the kitchen are always spotless clean. They hand craft the food in family size batches so is is always fresh right out of the hot pots and pans. Great service Food is always excellent. #ComfortFood #JamaicanFood #JamaicanCuisine #OutdoorPatio #OutdoorTables
I been coming here for a while the food is great.. The curry shrimp is amazing, the crazy part is it takes 40 minutes to prep the last time i called they had no chef . I've never heard of such thing an in the food industry but to cook shrimp 40 minutes!!. I dont understand that part. That's my reason for a 3 star i think that's ridiculous 40 minutes for curry shrimp.
Bought the stew chicken with rice and peas. The rice was gritty and not cooked right. 2nd time I bought this from them and this time I will really never buy their meals ever again. I’ll stick to their porrage and chicken soup when I’m desperate. The Jamaican Cravin in Whiteplains is actually very good but location in Ossining sucks and not worth the price which is over priced. Also gravy is heavy with bbq sauce 🤮
I’ve ordered once before from them and it was nasty, I said let me give them one more try maybe it was just the chicken? Nope , ordered today again, the Mac & cheese was super greasy no flavor, tasted sweet. The fish was dry and overcooked looks like it was overheated from yesterday. The oxtails too small for a large, the cabbage overly greasy no taste ! Rasta pasta again no taste & super greasy , never again
Worst beef patties I ever ate in my life! They charged me full price for 2 burnt beef patties. I usually go to the white plains location but today i happened to come across a cravin Jamaican in Ossining and said what the heck. Big mistake! White plains at least doesn't sale burnt beef patties. I broke off a piece to show you the inside. Its just a piece but i swear on my child the whole beef patty was like this and was super crunchy.
