We hired Pearl Island catering for our wedding and cannot not say enough good things about them. We got compliments all night long and weeks after from guests raving about the food. Zakiah, Sober, and their entire team were wonderful to work with. The day of went so well and their staff not only handled bartending, manning the buffet, appetizer passing, and clean up but they also set up our entire reception from tables and chairs to the full place setting. They were extremely kind, flexible, and reasonably priced! 10/10 would recommend!

Best lunch spot in cville! Love getting the trifecta bowl with sous poulet. Chicken curry, and jerk chicken! Great vegetarian options as well with the cauliflower being the best! The most amazing plantains I have ever had… and a super yummy sauce that goes with it. Order ahead for a quick pick up!

Yummy food and sizable takeout portions! We got the tofu curry and jerk chicken platters. Platters came with kale salad, seasoned rice, fried plantains. Tofu curry was really flavorful with a thick coconut curry gravy. Jerk chicken was an unusual flavor that tasted to me somewhat heavy on cardamom.

DELICIOUS! recently tried out the place for the first time. The portions match the price and the food is so good. The fried plantains are crisp and delicious, the kale salad was refreshing and the oxtail was on point! Give this place a try!
