“ Had the pleasure of eating here to celebrate the 4year wedding anniversary of my cousin and his wife! The food was absolutely delicious well seasoned definitely recommend the oxtails, curry goat, escovitch red snapper and the service was great!! I highly recommend eating here!! ”
“ First of all, I'd like to start by saying that Island Pride Oasis is the REAL DEAL when it comes to delicious Jamaican food! I've been to a lot of other Jamaican spots between D.C. & Maryland, but this place right here is just on a whole other level of quality, care, and taste. I've been looking for a spot that makes good jerk chicken alfredo (since it combines two of my favorite foods, jerk chicken & pasta) and just couldn't find anything that was that exceptional UNTIL I CAME HERE! Island Oasis Pride hit all the necessary spots on my tastebuds. Whatever they are doing in the kitchen, clearly they are doing it right! In any event this is my new go-to Jamaican spot & I will be coming back soon! ”
“ I want to express my appreciation for the exceptional dining experience I had on my birthday at your restaurant. The food was outstanding, and my friends and I thoroughly enjoyed every bite. I was particularly grateful to Ms. Joan for organizing my likkle gathering and to Juju, our waitress, for her exceptional service. Her kindness and attention to detail made our evening truly memorable. I must say that this restaurant has become my go-to spot for authentic Jamaican cuisine in Maryland. If you're looking for a taste of the REAL deal, I highly recommend this place!!!!!! ”
“ I just happened to stop in this place cause I was real hungry and just wanted to find some place that was open and not fast food. Plus I wanted to stop at a place that was close to where I was in the area. I ordered the curry chicken with cabbage and rice & peas as my sides. I also got a side order of plantains. It took me 40 min to get home and I couldn't wait to eat. I didn't even heat up the food. I took one forkful and the taste was so delicious I was amazed. Even cold this food was so good. It had the right amount of flavor, gravy and chunks of chicken (not all bone like most Caribbean places). The cabbage didn't even need vinegar and the plantains were perfectly ripe. Then came the drink. It was actually real homemade fruit punch. At 4 a bottle I thought it was pretty pricey but once I tasted it, I see it was worth the price. I wish I didn't live so far away, otherwise this would be my regular Caribbean food spot. When I want to treat myself. I will definitely take that 40 minutes drive. ”
