Don’t get me wrong, the food was amazing. I had the curry chicken, yams and Mac. The only issue I had was I bought a slice of pie(or at least that’s what I thought) and paid $5 for it and it wasn’t what I expected. It was that looked like it used to be big and someone shrunk it down to toddler size. The food was piping hot which is amazing so I will be back for more.

Lil Red catered my birthday party for July 23rd at Golden Gardens Bathhouse and they went above and beyond! They were communicative, engaging, and kept us updated about where they were at, who would be there, and what to expect.

Got the jerk chicken combo here with mac & cheese and the fried rice as a side. Everything was delicious but the mac especially made the whole meal. Guys working there were very nice, will definitely be going back.

The best BBQ I’ve had since moving to Seattle. It’s hard to find a good BBQ spot with good meats AND good sides. Tried the brisket, ribs, smoked jerk chicken, Mac and cheese, garlic mash, collard greens and EVERYTHING hit the spot. I’ll be dreaming about these ribs for a while

The thing that warrants this review was the quality of the food. The other things would’ve been ignored if the food had been up to standard. Have you ever eaten food bad enough to turn you off that type of food periodically? I’ve since grown afraid to try any other Caribbean restaurants. It literally brings back bad memories just thinking about this place.

I’ve never had a bad dish. I spend just under 1 hour and a half driving to get food and it’s worth every bit of the drive. I always bring bring something in my car so the frozen beef patties stay frozen during my trip back.

Excellent BBQ. My first time at Lil Reds after hearing about it from a buddy over a year ago. We ordered the Burnt Ends and Brisket Meals. Mac n Cheese Side, Greens and Yams (also very good). Glad we stopped in because I’m looking forward to the next visit.

Garlic mash potatoes and baked beans were great. Brisket is awesome with and without their sauce.
