G & H Caribbean Restaurant

Excellent Jerk Chicken & Jerk Pork (real pork like from a pig roast with skin over the meat for flavor) with plenty of rice & beans, plantains, and sautéed vegetables on the side. Can’t beat this place for the location and food quality. The medium size vs the large only differs by the amount of meat. The sides are the same size. The medium was more than enough and for $ 8 its a great deal. The don’t serve alcohol but we BYOB from the wine store around the corner. Server brought us 2 wine glasses for it and charged NO corking fee. It is a no frills mom & pop style restaurant and we saw most people getting take out. We sat at only table outside and enjoyed the street scene and vibe. We will be back!

Both the food and the service were as Caribbean (aka amazing) as it gets. I got the Ox tail and my friend got Jerk chicken. Both were cooked to perfection! Really. And the ordering process was easy, quick, and laid back. I loved eating here.

Jerk chicken is amazing. Not fancy. Just good food and great prices. And outdoor seating too!

Stumbled into this place after a night of drinking. It was late and appeared closed but a sleepy counter man welcomed our party of 4. We placed our orders and 15 minutes later we were eating at a table. I mention the prep time because the food was made/​warmed to order which makes a big difference from sitting in a steam table as is common in Jamaican eateries. I had a feeling it would be good.
I’ll say the oxtail, spicy jerk chicken, sides of sweet plantains, pigeon peas in rice and stewed cabbage were as good as you’ll find anywhere (and I’ve eaten this food in divey take-​outs, street carts all over NYC to Jamaica and other Caribbean islands). My friend, who eats Caribbean more regularly than I was shocked and agreed it was so well seasoned and executed.
They offer Jamaican drinks like ginger beer which is sweet and spicy and compliments the food. They don’t have a liquor license (but they’ll allow BYO which I’ll keep in mind). They had a nice looking red velvet cake but it was late and we were full. Next time.
I think if people could get passed the somewhat depressing room (it needs some sprucing up and better lighting) and focus on the food they’ll be rewarded. Personally, I think there’s a charm to the space but understand how the general public might think otherwise especially with all the trendy bars and restaurants in close proximity.
Worth checking out for sure.

The décor is not inspiring but the food is authentic and very good.
Being it was my first visit I asked the chef/​owner to feed me her best choice. She asked if I liked «spicy», which I do, so she plated me up some jerk chicken — to go.
The wonderfully spiced chicken came with rice, julienned peppers, onions and carrot and a couple of delicious plantains. All of which added up to an inexpensive but terrific lunch.
Will be back to work through the rest of the menu!

My boyfriend and I stopped by around 6pm on a Sunday, and ordered the curry goat and oxtail. The food was soooo good and the people that own the place were very friendly. They also have a table outside, which is a plus. We’ll definitely be back for more! I look forward to the jerk chicken :)

I was visiting Peekskill and I came upon this restaurant. Knowing that traditional West Indian food should be gluten-​free and dairy-​free I went in. I found a very authentic Caribbean restaurant run by a Jamaican family. Now the place is not fancy. There was no air conditioning. But this just makes it more authentic. In the restaurant the menu is only on a white board, but at their website there is a link to a PDF menu. Check it out.
