The food took a bit long to prepare but it was really good! We ended up getting the jerk chicken and the oxtails with side of Mac and cheese. The chicken had a spicy smoked flavor and it was a dry rub. The oxtail was cooked very well, very tender. The Mac and cheese was a bit dry but had good flavor. Called the order in and it took longer than 20 minutes waited inside for about 15 and about 10-15 on the way there.

Shout out to my server Nikia! Very friendly, attentive, and helpful. Great interaction with the chef. The staff was very welcoming. DJ was jamming. The main event (the food) was good. It's the authentic Jamaican cuisine...jerk pork was extra spicy for me ....but flavorful. Check it out all you spicy lovers. Great vibes! Get your Happy Hour drinks!

I love the food at this place, when I tell you it's all that and a bag of chip..............babe. My husband and I at and took two plates with us. Hands down I was full but couldn't stop eating and the house punch was good as well. And the drinks lets just say the liquid marijuana had my husband feeling good they are very generous with the alcohol you will leave feeling good. Check them out you will not be disappointed. The food temperature is good and hot, half way through I was still blowing. When I tell you we will be back sooner than later. DO NOT SLEEP ON THIS PLACE!!!!!

First timer, excited to feel the vibes I’ve been hearing about
Walked in around 6pm because I heard of their happy hour is between 5-7. I wasn’t aware if I sat myself or wait to be seated so i walked to the bar and looked at a menu. The bar tender greeted me them told me to talk to someone else to place my order and that person told me to speak back to her since I had questions about what liquor was used to make the drink I was considering. Starting to feel unwanted and look towards the door, but I heard the food was good so I waited.
I placed my order and asked if I could sit anywhere, and was told “just sit at the bar with me”. No problem, I did.
Ordered the oxtail rice and peas & a drink called liquid marijuana. After the bartender disappeared for almost ten minutes, phones ringing repeatedly going unanswered and me still without a drink.
I started thinking I should have went to the gym instead. I almost walked out honestly.
Finally i get my drink and was asked not to hold it against her. Cool, the drink was sweet over strong (like kool-aid with a shot of rum) but good overall . I would have ordered another but I couldn’t keep up with the bartender, she went missing again. it’s 6:25 by now but I read a sign that said the food is made fresh to order so be patient so I understood.
Once my food came it was really good, oxtail was tender and the flavor was nice, (I wish it had more of a kick) but I ate it all. Once I received the check it was $46. They added 6% gratuity to my bill (for just myself) with mid service and no explanation.
I probably won’t ever attempt to dine in again. Simply order to go if Caribbean sunrise on Dunn is crowded. But they’re black owned so I will always encourage people to try it out. Just know you’re going for food not service.

Be very careful because they overcharged you. I paid for my friend bill but the waiter still gave her a bill. I will also double deal for gratuity which they did correct. We got to the establishment at 7:00 they didn't take our drink order until 7:30. I got my first drink at 7:45 and the DJ then announced that happy hours ended at 8:00. I really hope you can correct these issues very quickly.
