My 1st time at Kool Runnings. I was inspired to try Caribbean food & this is where I ended up. I’m so happy I stepped out of my comfort zone & let the owner / fearless leader, guide me in what I should choose. Let me emphasize I was calling in a to-go order around 9:20pm – by the time I got into the restaurant, (less than 5 minutes later) my food was boxed, prepped & ready to go! Amazingly fast service 🙂 And even more amazing service – the phone order taker (the nice gentleman may perhaps be the owner) graciously helped me navigate a world of unfamiliar dishes, flavors, etc… I’m a virgin to Jamaican cuisine, so I needed all the advice I could get!! I asked for the oxtail w/ cabbage, rice n peas & plantains. I then confessed my uncertainty w/ my selection & desire to get a 2nd back up meal in case I didn’t like the oxtail. He assured me I would like them. I liked his confidence! I also got the stew chicken (as suggested), w/ turnip greens, peas n rice & plantains. I must say – the meat of both dinners (oxtail & stewed chicken) was AMAZING!!! Tender, fall off the bone, full of flavor – delish. Another 1st outside of my comfort zone – The rice n peas were plentiful and very tasty – very filling! Not too mushy, good consistency, nice flavor, large portion. I really love greens but I’m learning perhaps I prefer a traditional Southern preparation (cabbage, collards). So while I ate the greens here, they weren’t my favorite. I could’ve done w/out the vinegary taste found in the collards. No worries – I’ll get those from grandma! I could kick myself that I didn’t get bread pudding with rum sauce or Jamaican rum cake!! Or a specialty drink!! But my sweet tooth was satisfied with the fried plantains – stupidly, dangerously good! Not sure which was my favorite: oxtail or stew chicken? Both are to die for!! Even better, again, the service!! You guys keep doin what you do, we’ll be coming back!!! Thank you!!! Yelpers who haven’t gone, what are you waiting for? You won’t be sorry & they’ll help newbies work through the menu & you’ll soon discover the next dish you can’t live without! Thank you Kool Runnings! I look forward to visiting again, & again, & you get it@o
Delicious Jamaican!. Huge portions-easily get 2 meals out of one! I asked for extra spicy Jerks Chicken, and I got it-delicious and flavorful. 🙂 Good service. Husband got the oxtails:he said it was a good amount of meaty oxtails. The cabbage was good, not overcooked. I’ll be back, again and again!
