Lil Red Takeout & Catering

A hidden gem for sure. The food was amazing. I had the oxtail, rice and peas and greens. The oxtail was literally falling off the bone! The staff was awesome. We were greeted immediately with smiling faces and laughs.They made great suggestions on what to order. Pro Tip: You want the Ginger drink (house made) with Hibiscus. Will definitely be back!

I wanted to love my meal, I had high hopes. I ordered delivery, came in a decent amount of time, warm and packaged well. Spent about $35. I ordered Lg jerk tips, the tips actually came in a round container smaller than the Sm side orders, which was odd & pieces were mostly bone.

Our party was memorable for many reasons, but the food was certainly one of the top highlights. I received so many compliments on the food, from “this is the best bbq I have ever had” to “do you have ziploc bags so I can take some home?” , and everything in between. The portions were extremely generous. I personally think the star of the show was the mac n cheese, but judging by the amo
