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.

With free parking and quick service, this place is perfect for a casual lunch or dinner. Don’t miss out - the flavors are unforgettable! 🌴🍗

Garifuna Flava offers a delightful Caribbean escape in Chicago! I devoured the half Jerk chicken, perfectly moist with a thumping flavor and delightful sides of rice & beans and plantains. The atmosphere is cozy, and the art adds a nice touch. Definitely a must-try!
