“ The warm welcome by Kimberly up front when ordering is very much valued and appreciated and the food (Rasta Pasta w/ Oxtail) couldn’t be more on point!! ”
“ Great jerk pork sandwich. It’s mildly sweet and it works great with the tender pork that’s lil spicy from the jerk sauce. Never been there in person, but considering it’s Caribbean place in the middle of Brooklyn, I’m assuming it’s not staffed with Jewish white kids. Judge the food, not the people that are trying to get through the day ”
“ Outstanding Service & Delicious Chicken Sandwich! Had a minor issue with an online order and spoke with Kimberly, the manager—what a pleasure! She handled everything professionally and truly cares about customers. She’s an asset to the team! And that new chicken sandwich? Amazing! Crispy, flavorful, and better than Chick-fil-A. Highly recommend! ”
“ Really delicious food! Flatbread oxtail pizza was surprisingly tasty! Some items were a bit more expensive than I anticipated. ”
“ Eating clean and healthy on the go can present a challenge, but thanks to this delicious steamed veggies and grilled chicken order at Footprints, I can enjoy a quick, health-conscious meal pack with flavor and nutrients. In addition, the personnel is professional and polite and upholds high levels of customer service (thank you, Aiesha, the cook (I hope that's her name because she was pleasant), and Kimberly another nice gentleman who took my order). Overall I give this location for great food and service. My only critique (and it’s small) is that I definitely need more than one plantain with my order and I believe most would agree! Either way, the staff was very accommodating and ensured I was a happy patron! Thank you Footprints, team! ”
“ Ordered 2 dishes jerk chicken an curry chicken w/rice n peas. When I tell you the food is delish. It’s Proper!!! Well seasoned. Impeccable service. Thanks Tempest. You have earned a returning customer. If lunch is so good I’m looking forward to sampling breakfast, and full catering services. Food was so good not much left - but here’s the pic. ”
“ The food here was amazing. Sandwich was egg and turkey bacon. The orange juice has passion fruit mixed in it. Fries were great. I also brought the porridge, but didn't eat it as I was full. My daughter gets it all of the time and said it is very good. I will try something new on their menu when I travel back to NY. ”
“ So I ordered Rasta pasta, grilled chicken and shrimps no shrimps came with my order. I also ordered a fried dumpling disgusting I thought actually it was some type of bread You couldn’t Holly bite into it. It was so hard and when calling the restaurant on Nostrand Avenue to explain to them about my order, they gave me three numbers to contact Uber eats and all the numbers were wrong. And the lady had the nerve to have an attitude And the lady had the nerve to have an attitude with me the manager They are trash!! ”
