Taste Of New York - Smyrna

Love this place! The atmosphere is always great for the laid back. drama free crowd. Live dj was good and good was delicious. Bartender was ?. Drinks are always good.Food: 5/5

Myself and my husband are regulars here; however, today was horrible. I brought a few guest (mother, sister, son) that the service and food are always superb. I was so disappointed and embarrassed that we sat for 2 1/2 hours and still had not received our food. When we questioned the waiter, he apologized and said he could not tell us how long it would be in spite we watched personal associates of the owner get their menus, order, eat and have drinks within an hour while we continued to wait. Although the owner was there, she never came over to apologize, never came over to check on our table or to offer us any conversation to explain things. After sitting for over 2 hours, we eventually left without eating. Although every patron should be treated as such, in being regulars that often eat here, it surprised me of the poor hospitality we received. If this is how they are doing business now; this place won’t be open much longer.So sad. Just when you try to support people of color…..this is how they treat you!

Was craving Jamaican food found this place it was hiding oxtail n chicken was good but cabbage an rice n beans not done n for 36 bucks was not satisfied...though the hostess was polite and the inside was litParking: There is a large parking but it's always packedWheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible

The atmosphere was a vibe. Loved to see all the happy faces having a good time but the food is a hard pass for me. I was not a fan and won’t be returning. My first meal consisted of Salmon, with spinach and mash potatoes. And a side of sweet potatoes and mac. The salmon was ok. The spinach was unseasoned and bland. They never gave me mash potatoes. The Mac was so nasty and flavorless, I barely saw cheese. The replacement order they gave me was just as bad. I asked for fries and they weren’t cooked throughly and the jerk chicken was hardly visible. I just got all bones with little to no pieces of meat. As someone who has traveled to New York for the soul food this taste nothing like it. Go to Brooklyn for your soul food . Oh and parking is kind of limited.

The staff was friendly and the food was delicious. The menu is diverse and I would definitely come back to try more.
