Go on vacation to the jewel of the Caribbean In mid Town of Pinellas County. My reviews of over 2 million must include Mrs Helena's authentic, pleasantly presented, exceptional flavors for an unexpected take out small or large portions of Caribbean finger licking fresh made lunch or dinner items. I only gave food a 4 due to only had the jerk chicken ,rice and bean's, cabbage and fresh hand made Mango meatballs OMG, and allows me opportunity to purpose a visit again on Saturday and do additional taste of possible jerk pork ,curry chicken, curry goat,oxtail, etc, It will take me till then to decide and of course, more Meatballs.. fyi, if you are someone who shares meals ,PS the food is so flavorful and spiced so proper you will regret that decision. Unless you request the Large container style My regret is that I was just introduced here. Well Done Greg S Counter Effects LLC
Yes, all the 5 star reviews are true (and well deserved). I’ve been eating here with my family for well over 14 years. Everything is delicious : the oxtail, the curry goat, the fish, patties. You really can’t make a bad choice. The desserts and drinks are also spot on. Everything is made with love and the owner, Miss Helena, is sweet and attentive. I will support this business for as long as it stands.
I’ve tried almost every entree on the menu and I am obsessed with this restaurant. I even ordered a variety pack of the dessert cakes and they arrived in a timely manner ! So delicious! 5 Stars !!
My family and I drove down from PPark tonight to try the Jamaican food at Island Flavors and Tings. It is hands down the best Jamaican food in the area. We had Jerk Pork, Island Fried Chicken, Brown Stew Chicken and Oxtails with rices and peas, yellow rice, cabbage and plantains. Everything was perfectly seasoned and very flavourful. The portion sizes are large. The staff was very nice and the young man on the line helped guide us through the options as it was our first time there. The cashier was very friendly. We tried the mango bread for dessert. It was tasty and moist. Our taste buds are very happy. We can't wait for lunch tomorrow... 🙂🇯🇲🙂🇯🇲🙂
I took a little trip to the Island, Jamaica. The restaurant presents happy, culture, and beauty with island music to sway to. Food presentation and aromas are alluring with great herbs and spices of tender meat and vegetables. That rum cake and famous Helena's mango bread is like no other, and don't forget your island beverage.. The warmth and welcoming from the women is a feeling of home. A 5-star rating is not enough. I was not disappointed and will return often. Thanks Augustine. 😊
