Best food I’ve ever had in my life, The chicken is amazing and tender. The cabbage is great and so is the mac & cheese.

No rating for the service or atmosphere since I only popped in for pickup but I can say the food is outstanding! The jerk chicken is delicious, the oxtails are so flavorful and tender, I can't help but think the rest of the menu is just as good.

Amazing food at Agnes Eats! The plantains are the best I’ve ever had—perfectly seasoned and made fresh from scratch. Every dish transports you to the islands with its authentic flavors. Highly recommend!

Food was great! Absolutely recommend the jerk chicken and chicken cheese steak sandwich. They could spruce up the place a bit on the inside, but great experience nonetheless.

first time visiting so I had to order a little bit of everything. Food was hot and flavorful, especially the cheesesteak fries WOW. Mac and cheese was a bit too salty but still good. Washed it down with some brown sugar lemonade . Got the pound cake, yummy and moist. Will return for more

Ordered the jerk chicken bowl with rice and cabbage, a side of macaroni and cheese and a side of fries. I also tried a side of the mango habanero jerk sauce and the regular jerk sauce. The jerk chicken is good, but even better with the jerk sauce. The rice and cabbage go well with the jerk chicken. The mac and cheese was creamy and cheesey. The fries were handcut and tasty. The mango habanero jerk sauce was a little sweeter than the regular jerk sauce, both sauces had a good flavor. I like spicy food and was expecting more heat from these sauces, but they were not very spicy.

Absolute Caribbean food. Everything on the menu is top notch, you really can’t go wrong. I’m particularly a fan of the jerk chicken and the turkey coco bread sandwich. So, so glad Jose and the crew are back downtown, I used to go to their previous location off of Ludlow almost daily.

I'm big on appearance, cleanliness, and good customer service! This place wins hands down! Solid 10!! The outside is well maintained and painted. The inside was clean and inviting. Employees made me laugh and the music made me want to dance. All of my questions were answered and the transaction was smoothly processesed with little to no wait time. The slushy lemonade drink, OMG! I'll come back everyday for that. It wasn't too sweet or sour. I can't do all the extra chemicals most freezes and slushies have but this is clearly a better healthier version! The food tasted so fresh and on point; Not too salty or overly processed! I'm a pregnant woman who's taste buds are picky and hard to please but my baby loved everything!!!! Slushy 10! Oxtail bowl 10! Beef patty 10!!! Definitely a new pregnancy craving spot for me! Love that there are no pork products or MSG's to worry about. Thanks for a great experience!
