Helen's Kitchen - Table reservation

They hype is very real. This is the BEST OXTAIL I've ever had in my life. They're so tender and fall off the bone juicyyyy. They're a bit fatty but that is my favorite part. Me tell no lie everything on this plate was amazing. The greens were nice and seasoned with a touch of vinegar to set them off! The plantains were the perfect texture and paired well with everything. The rice and peas are spot on! The Curry mash potatoes are also to die forrrr! You can tell they put a lot of love into this cooking. It is in my opinion the best Jamaican cuisine in Houston. The building looks a little rough, but that is one the key signs that the food is about to bet amazingggg. I'm am on my way now to get...

I’m starting this review while waiting on my food, I bought the last pattie because I came about 20-25 minutes before she closed. And the patty was sooooooo good I think it was a veggie one but you can definitely tell it was homemade! Her son was very polite while he took my order and told us about the menu.THE PLATE GOOD AS HELL she’s not stingy with portions will be back!

It's a hit and miss when you come here. The food was flavorful but why are we serving food in foam plate with no compartments. Then the rice and beans were overcooked, curry goat had more bones than meat. I had to pick through my food because it was all different sizes and shapes of bones. I haven't been here in a minute and I see why.

Was really looking forward to trying the food. My issue is that everything is spicy. Ordered oxtails with rice peas and cabbage. Everything was unnecessarily spicy. If you desire everything to be spicy, this is the place.Food: 3/5
