The food here was amazing and the staff were so friendly. We can't wait to come back and enjoy authentic food again. The atmosphere was charming as well. The spicy slaw was amazing and next time I will get some to go too! The food is spicy and I was happy with a level 1 but the slaw is probably 2-3.

The food was so good! I got the jerk chicken and my girlfriend got the shrimp gumbo, both were delicious! Everything was good but the rice was exceptional! I've never had rice that good before! Overall, a great experience, I will be going back!

Wow- if you are a spice person, this place is for you. My husband and I ordered one entree to share as we weren't very hungry. We got the pasta chez olga with level 1 spice. I am honestly unsure how anyone orders a level hotter than that. It was spicy!! Even though it was spicy, the flavor was very much there. The portion size is massive. We had a whole third portion to take home. Small place and service is not super quick, but worth the wait. Excited to go back and try more!

The food is AMAZING! Flavor plus spice made my order of curry goat a must have for any trip to Grand Rapids. The ambience is everything I experienced in the Caribbean, simple, clean and efficient. Service is kind and relaxed so go and enjoy!

I've heard so many great things about Chez Olga. I finally had the pleasure of trying it out with my dad & friends. 5 stars for the Caribbean Fried Rice. You can add beef, shrimp or chicken. My friends ordered the curry which was also very good. The flavors in the food and spice level were perfect. I would visit here every-time I'm in Grand Rapids. The owner was very sweet, she had a great personality! Extremely cute and chic inside as well :)

I can't believe it took me so long to try this place. Last night, our friends were telling us how amazing Chez Olga is, so we decided to try it out right away. The restaurant is very cozy and has plenty of tables for a smaller restaurant, but it also can fill up quickly. The food is all amazing. So many delicious options it's difficult to choose. Even all the dishes that were coming out to other tables looked so amazing I wanted to try them all, haha. They don't mess around with their spice levels, my wife and I love spicy food and we got level 4 spice which was perfect. It definitely has some serious heat without turning into a painful level of heat (for people who like spicy food). The service was outstanding! This is a family owned, local business that makes everything fresh, so come with the mindset your dinner will take a while...but it is well worth the wait. Olga herself was doing an amazing job serving all the customers. She is super sweet and it was so enjoyable talking with her. They do fill up quickly so I would highly recommend a reservation on the weekend. Also, come early. At about 8pm on this Saturday night they switched to "takeout only" because of how many orders they were getting. I can't wait to go back to try some of the other entrees and I'm looking forward to eating my leftovers tomorrow!

Food is the best!! drove the hour and a half from Brighton, and it was worth every mile. I had the Creole shrimp, delicious!!

Visited the first time and wow, the food was just amazing! We had the fried plantains that comes with the spicy coleslaw. This one is a MUST! We also got an order of Pate--2 beef and 1 chicken. Mmm.. they were okay but wouldn't order again. And we also got the Jerk Chicken--this one is a MUST. We got level 5 and it was the perfect spice level for us. The lady who gave us our food is SUPER friendly. We will definitely come back again. Thank you!

Fresh delicious hot creations Excellent service from John Olga makes you feel like you're family and welcomed We will be back!
