"It was our first time eating from here, the Potato Salad had a nice thick sauce on it and the potatoes were fork tender. Good crunchy Queso & Chips. The Brisket was evenly cut and nicely packaged, one pack was a bit on the dryer side and the other pack was a bit on the oiler side. And the bbq sauce trio that came with the brisket complimented it well. And the carrot soufflé?? Delicious. Would recommend eating from here."

"The Burnt Ends was flavorless and too tough and in some parts too fatty. spent $18 on just 5 and literally only could get through 4 because one was too tough. Collard Greens were decent. I would definitely order the collard greens again. Prices are just unreasonably high for the quality of food."

"I always find my meals from 99 are fresh and amazing. The honey glazed biscuit is a favorite. I love the grilled chicken and how it's prepared. The desserts are so delicious. The only "downside" is it used to be much cheaper and was good value. Now it's really expensive and are, in my opinion, overpriced. I understand that's kind of the general way things are these days, but still, used to be able to spend a reasonable amount and now it's pretty insane. But if you want a great meal and feel confident that you are going to get quality and enjoy it? 99 is the way to go. If you're going to spend the money, you don't have to worry that you'll be disappointed."
"Hot, crispy, and delicious. Original Crispy Chicken Tenders were small this time but I got a lot of them! Still wish I had the option to get extra honey mustard. Mozzarella Moons were good for delivery. Only ever had them in the restaurant but for my first time ordering them for delivery they were good! Crisp and gooey. Would order again!"

"Rasta Pasta Chicken -Great flavor. Chicken was tender. The medium size was HUGE (feeds 2-3). The sauce was a little thin for my liking, but flavorful. would order again, but would like to try it with grilled shrimp!"
"Every time I visit Island Fish Head Jamaican Restaurant, it’s a wonderful experience. The owner is always friendly, communicates well, and has a healthy sense of humor that makes you feel welcome. I always order the chicken soup with extra potatoes, and it’s consistently fresh, hot, and delicious. One time, I accidentally ordered a chicken patty instead of fried chicken through DoorDash. When I called to ask for extra potatoes, he realized the mix-up and told me not to worry. He sent out what I actually wanted without hesitation—and even added a beverage! That kind of kindness and attention to detail is rare these days. He definitely went above and beyond my expectations. This is the kind of place you keep coming back to—not just for the food, but for the people. Highly recommend!"

"This place is amazing!! I was worried about the prices since it seems like a lot of places since Covid shrank their portions and dropped in quality, but I was very surprised at how much food you get, and how delicious everything was! The filet in the Herb Salmon Dinner was gigantic and super flavorful. I had a bite of my friend's Fettuccine Alfredo and it was rich and had a little kick from the blackened chicken spices. All around this was one of the best doordash orders I've gotten in a long time. Will definitely be ordering again before I travel back home. "
"The food is nowhere near as hot as it would be served if eaten at the restaurant, but I expect that of delivery. Overall the food is good and I enjoyed the Sauerbraten (especially the cabbage!) and both my husband and cat loved the Tuna Peppadew Melt. The seasonal Big Mac Eggrolls were slightly disappointing because I was expecting more flavor, but they can't all be winners! I wish they had different takeout containers (perhaps with a couple small holes for venting hot food) so that the hot food wouldn't have so much condensation on it."
