Amazing Jamaican restaurant. Nothing else like it in the area. Place does get very busy so expect a decent wait (10-15 mins to just be served is average) but the food is incredible and well worth the wait. Would highly recommend
So glad I discovered this Caribbean restaurant while visiting Aldershot with work. The BBQ Ribs starter (£6) were probably the best I’ve ever had. I also had a Jerk Pork and Jerk Chicken (Mix Meat Meal) with rice (£12). This too was delicious. Although the place has a cafe type feel, don’t let this put you off. ‘Tastebuds’ is all about the food which was AMAZING and in my opinion, great value. The service was fantastic too. We had a good bit of banter with the lady serving us, who was doing a great job during a busy final hour of the day. Highly recommended.
My favourite 100% best jerk chicken around.I have used taste buds for years now and I’m never disappointed.
Lovely lady running the place. The chef is also all smiles(and laughs). The food flavours are simply beautiful. No frills seating. But amazing ambience from hosts.
My favourite place ever! The best Caribbean food I ever tried.
Me and my husband drive to this place from another town for 1,5 hours just for this jerk chicken 🍗 no words needed
The queue was slow on Friday dinner time but the food was fantastic! Had the melt-in-your-mouth oxtail, curry goat, and the chicken wing starter. Look forward to coming back and trying some more!
Edit: Since have tried the jerk chicken and pork which is brilliant. And also the BBQ ribs starter is very good and big portion too.
Kelly the owner was very friendly and welcoming too.
I was pleased with the warm way in which we were greeted as soon as we entered this restaurant. The woman was extremely friendly and gave excellent recommendations.
The portions are generous and the service was efficient.
The rice and peas dish was lovely and had a great taste. I would also recommend the Jerk Chicken.
Holy moly! Found this place on maps and ended up coming 3 days in a row!
So unbelievably good! Queue out of the door was a great sign and the atmosphere was so friendly and welcoming.
I asked for recommendations and had a different thing each day, all of which were incredible and a great price!
Recommend to everyone!
Food was fantastic! flavours are exactly what I expect with Jamaican cuisine. Portions are very generous. Service with a smile and lots of positive vibes from both staff and all who came in to buy food. Lots of banter and you get the impression that everyone feels comfortable here...awesome place and will be returning to make my way through the menu. True soul food!
The atmosphere and food made an indelible impression 😋, Great Customer services. The Curry goat and oxtail was awesome . I love the Raggae and dance hall music too.keep doing what you do ,I am a well satisfied customer.
Amazing experience. Super friendly staff, very reasonable prices and totally delicious food. We had oxtail with rice and jerk chicken with sweet potatoes chips. Couldn't be any better! Highly recommended.
Ribs that didn't even make the table, sticky unctuous gems, tender, sweet and savoury. Curried goat, tender and moorish with that fabulous lingering heat, savoury rice and peas. Replete and satisfying. X
Well.. if you are looking for some real soul food that is DELICIOUS and has your tastebuds partying (no pun intended) LOOK NO FURTHER! Ive been here several times over the years and Kelly and her husband never fail to produce delicious food! Everything I have tried from the curry goat to the stewed beef to the fried chicken are all bursting with flavour. The best Caribbean cuisine for miles and miles for real. The portion sizes are very generous for the price so not only are you getting quality your getting quantity for the price paid - win win! All of the staff are really friendly also. Do not hesitate to pop in and grab some serious food, you will not regret it!
A fantastic find, we were looking for a place to eat on the way home from a trip. Five of us had lunch & all enjoyed it. The staff are wonderful as was the food. The goat curry was superb.
Really glad I found this spot. The food is full of flavour and there's many options to choose from for a good price. Service is always quick. Would highly recommend.
Cycled 12 miles and waited in the long queue on a Friday night to be served by the kindest lady and when I got home my curry goat, rice/peas and lamb patty was totally worth it. X
Visited this kitchen during a weekend attending a military reunion event. I love Curry Goat and thought I'd try them out. Absolutely outstanding!. Amazing flavours. On the bone in the traditional style and a truly enjoyable experience. Generous serving, a warm welcome. Went back again on the following day for more.
Awesome food and Great staff, tastiest Jerk Chicken I've had in a long time, freshly made as well! Would definitely recommend and be returning next time I'm in the area 👌
