    Dining at Chez Omar’s was a vibrant and memorable experience. We started with a delicious variety of appetizers creamy tuna tartare. The coconut curry mussels and jerk sliders , tropical flavors. For mains, the grilled branzino was perfectly cooked, the oxtail stew was rich and hearty, and the jerk poulet delivered the right amount of heat. The seafood pasta special was a standout, filled with fresh seafood in a light, flavorful sauce. Sides like rice and peas, sweet plantains, grilled asparagus, and creamy mac & cheese perfectly complemented our dishes. Cocktails like the frozen rum punch and coconut mojito kept the island vibes flowing. We ended on a sweet note with the decadent cheesecake and moist rum cake. Overall, Chez Omar’s offers a lively atmosphere, warm service, and incredible Caribbean nspired
