Who are in extremely in love with The Island.

I ordered the jerk chicken, it was absolutely DELICIOUS!! Tender, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor. The atmosphere is island like which is a plus, because the meals are hearty and the overall calmness allowed me to enjoy every bite, and surprisingly I was ready for round two. The staff was super friendly and very accommodating. There island drinks pack a punch, but the price was easy on the wallet. I highly recommend this Caribbean establishment. Welcome to Malden!! keep up the excellent work

 

Welcome to the neighborhood! We were looking for a spot for a dinner and this came up. Since it just opened there was no line, no wait. We were seated right away in a cozy spot with lots of pillows. The staff was super nice and attentive. They answered all of our questions about the cool drink menu. There was something for everyone. The drinks had fun names and there was even a drink for people watching their calories. We had the French You (delicious!) and the co-pilot (also super yummy). Both were well mad and easy to drink. We had the fried pork and creole goat for our meals. Both were great but my pork was soooo good. 
Can't wait to come back.

Had a wonderful meal here - much-needed diversity in a restaurant/menu selection in Malden.
Good first date restaurant in the evening (good atmosphere for getting to know someone).

Stopped by this place with a friend during the soft opening. It was nice - the food was excellent, service Superior and it had a very nice vibe overall. Going to a restaurant like this gives you a feeling that you sailed away for a brief vacation. The bar is stocked very nicely also with an above-average selection of Caribbean drinks. Yes there is more then just Captain Morgan.
Was able to speak with the owner and the hard opening is coming next week. If you want to get a feel for the place before the crowds come this weekend would be an excellent time, or if you're lucky enough to work in Malden hit this place up for your lunch.
This is a family-owned and operated business, with roots and Malden and the Caribbean.
Price for two dinners, cocktails and tip right around $60.
If you have well behaved children this place would be a good option if they like seafood.

Definitely no good Haitian food around here until now... loved the food atmosphere and staff.... our waitress was amazing and funny.... the host was very nice as well he quickly gave us a comfortable seat with pillows... this place will be very busy soon enough I need to become a regular before then lol

Best spot in town.... feels like home! Love this place and the food is amazing  
The staff is friendly the place is clean. The prices are unbeatable for a home cooked meal! I could eat here everyday!

I work nearby and was excited to try this new flavorful addition to Malden Center. I found the service from the proprietor and her staff to be friendly, courteous and warm. I ordered the fried goat with beans & rice, garnished with fresh salad and fried plantains and enjoyed a fresh fruit juice. The food was delicious and the atmosphere inviting, so I will definitely be back to sample a summer cocktail at their full wine and spirits bar. Welcome to the neighborhood! My compliments to The Island, Malden MA.

Good food , Friendly staff and affordable.  This place you can bring friends and family the service here will not disappoint you.  Street parking can be a but hard, yhe place has an island vibe to it...over all I like it..I feel very welcomed.

Great Customer Service Great Staff

We love going out for a great dinner to celebrate nearly any occasion. I celebrated my birthday at this restaurant. Ambiance, staff, cocktails- taste as well as variety, food - preparation, menu, taste--- Everything gets an 11/10. I called ahead and they were nice enough to make me my favorite dish that was not in their menu. I had a fantastic, tasty lobster. What a great decision that was.
