Garifuna Flava is an absolute treasure for anyone craving authentic Caribbean cuisine! 🥥 I recently indulged in their Half Jerk Chicken over rice & beans, and it was divine - the chicken was incredibly moist with a perfect jerk spice blend that had just the right kick.
The plantains and potato salad made for delightful sides, balancing out the meal beautifully. The decor features stunning black and white photos that add a lovely, artsy touch to the cozy atmosphere.
