Golden Krust

So the first time I went in, my experience wasn’t the best. But the owner, Maurice, wrote me after he saw my Unilocal review and apologized about my 1^st experience. He told me how most of their customers are senior citizens and they complained that the food had too much flavor and that’s why he had to calm down on the spices. The owner asked me to come back in and try it again. I told him I would come on Monday but I came in Friday instead so I could catch them unprepared and get a raw experience. May I say that was the best decision. He was so nice about the situation. By far the best customer service I’ve received thus far from ANY restaurant in south Florida. Also the food was perfect! Perfect seasoning and not too spicy. I’ll definitely be back.

I went to this new location for lunch and the food was so flavorless. I ordered the curry chicken and it was no flavored properly. The rice was tasteless. I had a very hard time finishing my food. I even asked for pepper. It didn’t help. From another review, I realize that I am not the only one who has had a bad experience. I will go back to the one on university near commercial. I know there food has flavor. They need a new cook at this other location. Never again.

This seems to be a brand new GK location and for an up and coming business I must say I had a GREAT experience.
I stopped by for a mid afternoon lunch after having been traveling for 5 hours. As I walked in I was greeted with a warm welcome and I took a seat to put my things down then took a look at what they were selling. They had everything from patties to jerk chicken, peas and rice, curry goat and so many other Jamaica dishes to chose from; not to mention authentic Jamaican drinks and juices.
I had the goat curry with white rice, veggies and plantains. My grandmother had the oxtail with white rice. I enjoyed my goat curry more than I have at any other Jamaican spot. The portions were quite large and the food tasted very fresh. I took a spicy beef patty with coco bread to go and enjoyed it for dinner.
I found that everything on the menu was well priced and that there was a variety of choices.

The resteraunt itself was very clean and so was the restroom. The employees were very nice. I believe I was served by the owner himself who was a nice man.
Parking is one thing that you don’t have to worry about the resteraunt is located in a shopping plaza with ample parking.
I recommend the patties and definitely the goat curry. Seems like the ox tail is also a big hit & don’t forget to get a coconut water… so delish!

New location alert* Yeah so happy to have this GK location! Close by when i visit my sis in Ft. Lauderdale. Great selections of hot patties and don’t forget the coco bread! I get st least six! Very clean and staff is nice. I had the pleasure of having the owner serve me. Rice and peas, oxtails, curry, brown stew chicken, jerk & fry chicken, steam vegs, plantains and the list goes on… Don’t forget the soup & get a soda to wash it down. Servings are large enough for leftovers. Stop by dine in and enjoy the music!

Let me start off by stating that I love Golden Krust’s food. It is all a girl who grew up eating food like this can ask for. The reason for my rating is for this specific location. Not only does that staff not pay attention when you are ordering, they continuously will push the specials on you once you have already ordered. I don’t know if rice options changes from location to location but this specific store does not have the spinach rice which bothers me. The staff in general just come off as rude. I will not be giving my business to this location again seeing as there are more locations around me that I can go to and get better service.

The food was all that I expected. Had curried goat and oxetail with peas and plantains. Also ordered the patties which they are known for. This is a great place to get lunch and have a little left over for dinner. I think thus us the newest location since this just opened this month. Currently they have Monday specials. I really hope that last because I could definitely be a regular here.
