The 16 Best Caribbean Restaurants In LA
"A legendary Black woman-owned Jamaican spot, Ackee Bamboo is a restaurant staple for the Leimert Park community. You can always count on this counter-service spot for excellent jerk chicken and fluffy festival bread, but they have plenty of options for vegan and vegetarians. Our favorite dish here centers around ackee—the starchy national fruit of Jamaica—stir-fried with chunks of saltfish, onions, tomatoes, and bell peppers, then served over a mound of rice and peas. The flavor from the well-seasoned saltfish soaks into the ackee, giving each bite a savory, sweet pop." - brant cox, garrett snyder, sylvio martins
