Franceella Caribbean Cuisine - Orlando

Hidden gem! Athetic flavors and good portion sizes. Friendly employees. The mac n cheese is delicious, love the oxtails and baked chicken too. They make a great sorrel too.

I got a small oxtail spicy beef. Oxtail meal was very light on the veggies I love veggies so that was underwhelming, oxtail fell off the bone so that was good. Rice was a bit tough, couldn’t taste too much coconut milk. Mac was better the next day. Patty was 10/10, just missing the coco bread option but was definitely one of the better patty’s especially for Orlando.

Oxtail and curry goat were on point. Mac n cheese was top top. Rice and beans and steamed veggies (heavy on cabbage) were surprisingly also pitch perfect. I had mango hot sauce and other accompaniments already and would recommend that. And yogurt and/or drink alcohol like red wine (Nebbiolo is what I paired with) for taming the peppery heat.

Ordered 2 large Chicken Jerk with 3 Spicy Beef Patty...never received the beef patties but I ended up being ok with it because the rest of the food was terrible. For an authentic Carribean spot there was no flavor to the rice and beans, the Mac and cheese was dry and we could not taste any jerk seasoning on the jerk chicken. It tasted like someone rubbed charcoal all over it. The veggies were undercooked as well. We got a huge portion of rice and the smallest pieces of chicken and the smallest scoop of Mac and Cheese. Im not sure if it was because it was the end of the night or not but being from the Carribean and the claims that its an authentic Carribean spot I expected more and was highly disappointed.

Rice is bland veggies bland gotnthe wrong order of bbq chicken instead of Lunch Special -Jerk Chicken Fresh Pink Lemonade is not fresh its powder tasting.
