BADBUSINESSDECISIONS Just stopped at GK for a package of coco bread. My total was $ 4.28. I gave the lady at the register my debit card. She informed me that they only accept cards on orders of $ 5 or more. So you’re willing to loose a sale that is so close to $ 5? I told her that I did not have any cash on me and she asked me to put the package BACK on the shelf??? A younger me would’ve laughed and left it on the counter, but I’m a bigger person now. I think that any chain restaurant(not mom & pop) should always accept credit card. Suck of the credit card fee for the customer retention. But oh well, I can get my coco bread elsewhere. Too bad GK.

Love, love, love this place! They get it right every time I go. This is the first consistent Caribbean spot I have found so far. I love their ox tail, curry sauce and even their soups are great. The staff is always friendly and helpful with suggestions and explanations of the food. I hope the open the drive-thru soon. That would be amazing. FYI I think the same owner owns the location on S. Hairston and I love their food too!

I love Caribbean food, but due to the nature of the cooking process used to cook this type of food, it’s always inconsistent. I’ll usually find a place that I love, and when I go back the following week or month, the food is not as good. I’ve always thought that it would be great to have a good chain restaurant(because they are generated very consistent) that serves great Caribbean food. Low and behold: Golden Krust! The food was exactly what I wanted. I decided to go with Curry goat, and oxtail gravy on my rice & peas. The curry was nice and mild, with thick cut potatoes and lots of goat.(I got oxtail gravy in my rice because I couldn’t decide between it and the curry; this was a great idea as the oxtail gravy was the best I’ve ever had)! My husband, who doesn’t enjoy Caribbean food as much as I do, chose to go with the jerk chicken dish. He and I both agreed it was just ok. The meat didn’t have that smokiness from the open flame that usually comes with jerk chicken. The jerk sauce that came on the side tasted like it had an A1 Steak sauce base. The sauce wasn’t bad, it just wasn’t very original. The staff here were helpful and very friendly. They answered all of my questions and even offered to let me try a few of their items that I was unfamiliar with. Also, they were VERY generous with the servings. While checking out what other Unilocalers had to say about this place I noticed there is a location in Snellville. I can’t wait to give them a try!

Very reasonably priced. The food tasted very fresh and was seasoned and cooked well. Portions are pretty generous. Would definitely return. I had the stew chicken and Mac and cheese. Wife had the jerk chicken and a beef patty. Both had rice and peas. Quite satisfied.

Was in Atlanta area on business and happened upon this place… if you like Caribbean food, this place is legit! Some of the best Jerk Chicken I have ever tasted. Combined with the beans and rice and fried plantains made for a tasty meal! The coconut cake was amazing! This place is a must try!

Check out the daily lunch special. We ordered 3 lunch specials, 1 dinner, dessert assortment, fresh juice, and the customary beef patty and coco bread. Everything was delicious.

Location: this is right off the Stonecrest Mall exit in the old KFC location. I decided to go to Golden Krust during the opening week. I was impressed with their renovation of the building and the surrounding location first off. Well done. Now to the food. The Jamaican macaroni and cheese was delicious if a bit drier than traditional American Mac & Cheese. Good sharp cheese crust, egg and diced veggie mixture. The veggies were hardly noticed and added great flavor for Americans unused to this new addition. Plantains were perfect — no issues. You get two. Cabbage was fresh and delicious with a nice spicy kick and included peas, carrots, corn as well as cabbage. They give you plenty too — at least two deep spoonfuls. The red beans and rice was very dry and not great all until I got some heavy gravy on it. Then it was PERFECT. I highly recommend lots of gravy on your red beans and rice. Now for the piece de resistance — the JERKCHICKEN. Tge chicken was delicious. Good amount of spice, slightly sweet and very moist. With a large meal they give you four pieces. All were great. Also they have a huge number of fresh juice and drink prepared. I tried the Peach Mango Tea and it was delicious. All told this was enough for three meals for me. At $ 19 it was expensive but worth it for one side, two patties, a drink and a huge meal. Side of Mac — $ 0.99 Small drink — $ 3.50 Patty — $ 2.05/piece Large meal — $ 11 Note — the one thing I didn’t enjoy was no substitutions. If you don’t like cabbage or want half that amount rice — tough luck.
