De Island Hut

I finally got in to try this spot. I went earlier in the day when I felt I could get a parking spot more easily. The food was so good! Being from the city and working and spending time with coworkers from Trinidad, I missed the food so bad after moving up here. While there’s probably no better food than the food I ate at her cookout, this is the closest in the area. The food was absolutely delicious. They’ll ask you spice levels and the portions are generous, they’ll give you extra hot sauce too. So far I had the doubles, curry chicken, and their freshly made peanut punch. The food I split with my mom, there was plenty. Their own peanut punch was great, it has peanut butter almond milk, and cinnamon. The taste was refreshing. I highly recommend this spot, personally, I can’t wait to go back and order more. I’m eyeing the beef patty in coco bread with oxtail for my next visit. Check out their menu, and honestly, grab something in the moment but also pick something else up to have later. Once you taste their food, you’ll wish you grabbed more to have later.

Have been wanting to try here for a few months, had an opportunity to go for a late lunch and it did not disappoint. Doubles are a must and the jerk wings were tender and quite spicy. Stewed beef and macaroni pie were both excellent. The curry chicken roti was also delicious. Would definitely recommend! Can't wait to go back on a Wednesday or Saturday to try the oxtail!

Food was deliciously flavorful.! Great place to eat! Made our whole day!

What a fantastic little gem to find in Upstate NY! The owner created an extremely inviting atmosphere when we arrived, allowed us to try the Ox Tail Special (Wednesday and Saturdays only!), and guided us through pairing the best sides with our choices. The food was incredible with layers upon layers of flavor. We ordered the Wings appetizer, the Curry Chicken and the Curry Shrimp. All amazing! The family business is obviously a winning formula here, as it was started in the middle of covid and is still around to bring us this incredible taste of of Trinidad! Will definitely be coming back!

Quite amazing to find such delicious Trinidadian food in Binghamton. Was not expecting that at all. The doubles with the different sauces were especially good. They did not hold back on the spice level of the jerk wings which I appreciate very much. This is probably a great spot for BU kids from NYC, but I really think the city locals should give it a try as well.

Food was fantastic. The guy behind the counter was so nice and took his time to make sure we enjoyed the food and explain things to us. First time there. Definitely going back!!

Used to come here when I worked in Binghamton. Absolutely the best place to eat in the entire town. The flavor of the chicken roti with the house pepper sauce is indescribably good. And the owner is the nicest person to be around

The food was delicious, but the real star of this restaurant is the service. The man who took who took my order (Reece) was exceptionally kind and went above and beyond to make sure that we were satisfied. Great food and great service. What more could you ask for?
