This place is great. Whenever I need my Jamaican groceries that I can’t get anywhere else, I can find it at Sam’s. They also serve cooked food that’s delicious and they have parking. Prices are very reasonable and good customer service. They are worth the drive to Long Island. I appreciate not having to drive to the city for my Jamaican groceries.

Ambiance - West Indian/Caribbean (of you know, you know) Food: hmm - rice... ok - oxtail gravy...delish - jerk chicken... ok - fish... too dry - festival... too dry and hard (maybe need to be wrapped and not stay on stovers*) - vegetable - delicious; perfectly cooked The grocery is good; many products/ingredients to make a tasty Caribbean meal. Staff is friendly. Service at food is slow; maybe order ahead if in a rush.
