"Just up the block from Turkey Leg Hut, Reggae Hut has been making staple Caribbean meals for over 25 years. Immune from life’s daily hustle and bustle, the place practically mandates that you stay awhile. While they do a brisk takeout business, we’d rather sit in the lived-in wooden chairs and admire the vibrant murals while taking down golden beef patties. The food here, including some of the best oxtail in Houston leaves us wondering how this place isn’t packed every night. While this isn’t the spiciest Caribbean food you’ll ever have, they have an arsenal of pepper sauce that will have you doubling back to the counter for another order of sorrel tea.
