Very warm hospitality! We drove from San Jose to Oakland bec I was craving for jerk chicken and plantains. We ordered 2 jerk chicken dinner and beef Pattie’s to go. Amazing food with big portion size. Rice was super delicious, the chicken very tender and flavorful. And the plantains just amazing. Highly recommend this place if you want some real jerk chicken!!

Very Good Food. Restaurant Very Clean Service was Excellent

Amazing food and great service. I highly recommend Sweet Fingers.

The server was nice but the portions were small. There were some sanitation issues that made me rethink my purchase.I’m glad to support but I wouldn’t visit again.

Both the food and the service here were great! All the staff were super friendly and helpful. I had the coconut vegetable splash, which was delicious. It was my husband’s first time having jerk chicken, and he absolutely loved it. One of the cooks even let us sample some of their fresh juices! Overall, highly recommended!

Went to Sweet Fingers on opening day a couple of weeks ago and it was so busy and popular that we decided to come back some other time. Well, we came back Saturday during the late afternoon and it was way worth the drive. We live in Santa Rosa, and heard that the owners were re-opening after a fire.The food was great and I would highly recommend y'all make the trip and try the food, as the chef really knows how to serve it up! We had the oxtail and curry Goad and the sweet fingers jerk to-fu. all were delicious. The dishes all came with rice and peas (beans) and fried plantain. The spices were right on and the meats were tender as can be.We also tried the homemade Lions ginger root and roots herbal drinks. Both were delicious and real fresh.I suggest you come early for dinner as they are so popular that I hear they have been running out of food.

Let's get into the Detail of the authentic Island decor and entire vibe. The establishment is a fixture in the Bay Area. The grand opening was nothing short of a long awaited carefully orchestrated Family Reunion.The food was Spectacular, initially I felt like the portion was small ( greed) I couldn't finish my portion.I will need a side of plantain. For my leftovers. I hadThe curry Chicken I also tried the vegetable coconut curry, when did tofu become yummy? Anyway A must try for all. Eating good in the neighborhood: fresh authentic food!!!!

Prices for the dinners are too high for the sizes of the plates. Ordered side of oxtails and got a lot of small pieces and bones, and $5 for one beef patty? That is ridiculous to me. I could walk to the Walgreens behind them and get a whole frozen box for around that price. Aside form that the taste of food was great just need them to better balance out the quantity vs the prices.
