Came here for an evening dinner and ordered takeout, the meal smelled fantastic and was fair priced. As soon as I walked out of the restaurant unfortunately my food fell onto the sidewalk spilling all of the beautiful entree that I ordered. The kind gentleman who’s name I did not catch prepared me a fresh meal in which I carefully returned home safely and devoured the delicious homemade plate without hesitation, thank you for the great hospitality and delicious meal.

I ordered the oxtail (take out) with grubhub. Our food got to us steaming hot, and we all agreed it was fantastic. The oxtail was falling off the bone tender, and the rice/plantains/cabbage were also delicious. Definitely worth the price. Highly recommend!

Hands down the best Caribbean food around. Their oxtail is legendary and if you haven’t tried it before you’re seriously missing out. They also have awesome jerk chicken, curry chicken, and goat dishes. This is a go to place for me, definitely try it.

I’ve been to First Choice on and off over the years, mainly because I don’t live in Troy. Despite that, I can’t recall ever being disappointed with the food.
The owner was kind and pleasant as always. The chicken was delicious and flavorful. The plantains were nice and sweet. The cabbage was okay and the rice was bland.
Because I usually love the food I will try again in the future. I’m hoping that yesterday was just an off day for them.

Had a taste for some oxtail and didn’t want to drive to Albany, so I googled an found this place 6mins from my house.
I ordered a small oxtail dinner with rice and peas, Cabbage and plantains. I get home sit down to eat, not only did I find a piece of plastic wrap in my food, there is not one single pea in my rice and the plantains are not cooked properly.
In addition to that, the smell of the food leaves little to be desired. Lastly, the slice of lemon cake is horribly dry.

I come here for ricky,
And I stay for the food!
Very casual environment. I always feel satisfied after eating here, as if my body is thanking me. The rice,callaloo, cabbage, plantains, and chickpeas compliment each other. What a nourishing meal. They have scotch bonnet sauce in case you like it spicy

I usually get their food at the farmer’s market on Saturdays, but I was craving it today and ordered it through grubhub. Everything arrived quickly and was very warm, and tasted great. Grateful to have this place nearby !

Oooooohhhhhhh soooo good. I’ve not been here in quite sometime and the last time he had a buffet but that’s ok. I had jerk chicken with rice and beans, cabbage and plantains. It was absolutely delicious and hot. My next time will be goat and oxtail. Looking forward to next time.
