"The Veteran of Foreign Wars building in Oak Bluffs may not be the typical setting for a world-class meal, but don’t let that dissuade you from going to Chef Deon’s Kitchen."

"Head to the Vineyard’s VFW hall for a non-New England take on seafood, which is a little like going to Paris and skipping the Louvre, but we’ve done that too, so no judgment. Jamaica-born chef Deon Thomas and his wife Emily have been serving a rotating menu of jerk or blackened salmon, zesty island kale soup, conch, plantains, and more in this relaxed space for years, and there’s often live music in the evenings. If Deon’s famous jerk chicken is on the menu, get it, and get it spicy." - tanya edwards

A very funky place with all sorts of nostalgia on the walls. The food is very authentic Caribbean, tasty, can be spicy, and BIG portions. Almost no need for appetizers because most people will take home the leftovers of their main dish. Definitely, we have to go back and try a dozen other dishes.

I love to pick up picnic food from here! They have awesome hours and are open at days and times where others aren't. Their menu is diverse and have specials changing. Such a locals favorite, and Chef Deon does amazing things for the community.

I’m from the Caribbean, I cook Caribbean food, I LOVE Caribbean food. This restaurant is not authentic and disappointing. Seasoning is a must in ANY cuisine. Rice and peas - soggy, no salt, no coconut. Milk, onions or thyme Broccoli - no garlic no salt, not even steames Jerk chicken- not authentic. Not seasoned. Oxtail - not seasoned, weird taste. That’s what we ordered. Very disappointed !!!

Ordered some food here during the MVAAFF and it was okay (overpriced and kinda bland) but they failed to tell us that there was already food available for festival guests which turned out to be significantly better that the cod fritters I had ordered. The fish was light and flaky, rice was well cooked and seasoned and the chicken was flavorful. Overall the plate saved the rating. The bartender ended up calling last call early cause she got annoyed and yelled at a customer so that was weird, especially for an event. Not sure if I'd return.

Honest and attentive service with exceptional food! Chef Deon’s Kitchen exceeded our expectations with their Caribbean/soul food flair. Everything was delicious and thoughtfully prepared and the staff was remarkable. From beef patties, wings, conch fritters, oxtails, jerk chicken, curry goat, escovitch, salmon, pork chops, mashed potatoes, mac n cheese, and rice and peas… we had a big party and ventured the menu. I’m sure everything we didn’t try was just as amazing! Pay them a visit! You will not be disappointed!

This is not an authentic Caribbean restaurant. The food lack the true Caribbean flavors. The food is not season well. The price is completely ridiculous for what they are selling. AVOID the curry goat. They fry plantains with the skin still on. I am extremely disappointed, please do not waste your money or time at this place.

Food was good, however I didn't even want it anymore after waiting more than 90 mins for it. I got there a bit after 530 and didnt get my food until well after 7pm. The younger waitress took our order and then never put the order in. About an hour later, a 2nd waitress delivering food to another table that came after me, asked what my table had ordered. Then 20 min later, the 1st waitress came back and said she would give us 2 free desserts since she neglected to put in our order and then hurried away before I could even register what she said. Also there were 4 people in my party so I don't know why it wouldn't be 4 desserts. Later, the 2nd waitress came back and apologized that the 1st waitress didn't put in the order. But she argued with us to the point that another patron came over to us and questioned the interaction. Despite the back and forth, the 2nd waitress was good and brought out our food and took care of us for the rest of the night. I didn't like the 1st waitress because she never apologized, let alone show any amount of contrition. My last complaint is that the bill automatically included 18% gratuity, which was way too much for the poor service I received. But I wasn't charged for my two appetizers nor the two desserts, and I really wanted to leave so I paid my bill without arguing. I will not be returning, but others in my party said they will only do take out and never eat in again.
