  • “ Such a gem! Great little Caribbean restaurant. Got the jerk chicken lunch special for only 7! It was delicious with the perfect level of heat. Might be a bit too spicy for some. Friends got the curry chicken and said it was also delicious and not spicy at all. ”

    Rose Phillips
  • “ Came in from Atlanta and was taken to Elaine's... This was the best Jamaican food I have had outside of Jamaica!! Hands down... Atlanta no chance, South FL gets close... But to find this gem in Dallas was absolutely amazing! Wishing you all continued success! And thanks for a great meal... ”

    LaMarcus Campbell
  • “ Right off the bat, I can tell you, they have the best Chicken patties in all America a dare anyone to challenge that. The beef patty not so much, but the chicken a kick wicked. The goat soup was also slapping with great flavors and loaded with goodies, dumplin corn, and some nice yellow yam. Wanna go back and try some other menu items. Def give them a try. ”

  • “ As I go out on my deployments, as a covid 19 travel Registered Nurse, I visit the local places of business in support of during the pandemic. Typically on my day off it's when I catch up on chores and when afforded the time I also do my part in an effort to support the local tourist industry. But today, I am in need of a laundry day. Although I'm downtown Dallas, I find my way over to MLK boulevard where I go over to the local laundromat. Here it's where it gets interesting. Is early afternoon and I'm developing an appetite. I question the laundromat attendant about a nice place to go for lunch and immediately he suggests Elaine's....next door. "What type of food?" I ask. The attendant smiles and says,"the lick your plate kind." I walk next door, through the wrought iron fence and up to the building's front. Before I enter the wrought iron fence d area, I notice the signage out front on the tall sign post above the wrought iron fence. In faded letters it reads Elaine's, along with the flag of Jamaica... the one Usain St. Leo Bolt aka #UsainBolt help to make even more popular being the world record holder in the 100 m, 200 m, and four X 100 m relay. I open the door to the establishment, and immediately notice the fresh smell of peppers onions and the like. I mean it smell as if grandmother is in the back cooking. Customers are masked up as well as the workers in the kitchen. It was an open kitchen and you can actually see your meal being prepared. The front clerk was unmasked but behind a large plexiglass barrier. I glance over the menu at the counter and decide to try several items so I can take care of my hunger pains and share a detailed review. After a careful assessment of the variety of proteins meals available, I place my order and wait for it to be prepared and packaged. Elaine's is busy with bustling traffic of pickup orders that were called in, orders that were placed for car service pick up and folks like me, walk-ins. I don't wait very long for the large order I made, my name is called shortly thereafter and I'm off in my Uber back to my room. I prepare my smorgasbord of ginuwine Jamaican cuisine. My first taste of the oxtails and one word comes to mind. AUTHENTIC! AUTHENTIC! AUTHENTIC! ... I said one word but it echoed with each taste of everything.. The rice and peas and cabbage married with those oxtails and delivers the flavors my palate has longed for since my travels to South Florida and the island herself. The jerk wings had the perfect bite, the curry chicken as succulent as the pot liquor or gravy; whichever term you prefer. The desserts didn't appear to be homemade, but who can mess up red velvet cake, pecan pies and sweet potato pies. Although the sweet potato pie is a little less potato-y than I'm used to. And of course a Jamaican ginger beer to wash it all down. Please LIKE if this helps you and/or FOLLOW so I can continue to share. ”
