A Taste of Jamaica in Gainesville
At Caribbean Spice, we want you to experience the warmth and vibrancy of the Caribbean right here in Gainesville. Our journey started with a simple love for authentic Jamaican food and a dream to share the bold, spicy flavors of the island with our community. We believe food is more than just a meal—it's a way to connect, share stories, and bring people together.
From Jamaica to Gainesville
The idea for Caribbean Spice was born out of my love for Jamaican cooking, passed down from my family. Growing up, the kitchen was always filled with the sounds of sizzling spices and the smells of hearty, comforting meals. I wanted to bring that same feeling to Gainesville. Every dish we serve is inspired by my Jamaican roots, made from scratch daily with love and tradition.
Authentic Jamaican Flavors, Made from Scratch
What makes Caribbean Spice special is our dedication to authentic, from-scratch cooking. We use traditional Jamaican spices and cooking techniques, ensuring each dish is full of bold flavors. Our Jamaican patties, made fresh every day, are a customer favorite, offering a perfect balance of spice and savory filling. Whether you’re craving oxtails, jerk chicken, or curried goat, you’ll taste the difference that comes from using the best ingredients and time-honored methods.
Vegetarian and Vegan-Friendly Options for All
At Caribbean Spice, we believe everyone should enjoy the flavors of the Caribbean. That’s why we offer a range of vegetarian and vegan options, like our rice and beans, steam cabbage, and more. We want to ensure that every guest has something delicious to savor, whether you're a meat lover or prefer plant-based meals.
