Real island cooking, made with fire and love — and shared with our Palm Springs community.
Caribbean Food Shack started with a pot over an open fire and a family full of recipes worth sharing. We grew up around food that meant something — Sunday oxtail, ackee & saltfish at sunrise, jerk smoke drifting through the yard, and rice & peas simmering in a well-worn dutch pot.
We brought that heart to Palm Springs to share it with our community. Today we cater everything from intimate dinners to 300-guest celebrations, but the soul of it hasn't changed: authentic flavor, generous portions, and the kind of warmth that makes a party feel like family.
And while the islands are our heart, our kitchen caters it all — plated steak and fresh seafood, grazing boards, brunch, vegan and gluten-free spreads, and full custom menus in any cuisine. Whatever your guests love, we cook it with the same care.
Traditional recipes and real technique — jerk marinated overnight, stews cooked low and slow.
We treat your guests like our own. Warm, professional, and genuinely happy to be there.
Island soul meets refined plating. Beautiful food that tastes even better than it looks.
Behind every Caribbean Food Shack event is one chef whose whole life has been spent around island cooking — from family kitchens to open-fire jerk pits. That hands-on care is why every dish tastes like it was made just for you.
From marinating the jerk overnight to running the pass at a 300-guest wedding, the standard never slips: authentic flavor, beautiful plating, and genuine island hospitality.
