3D Bakery

Just want to thank 3D for hooking up my end-​of-​school family friend picnic. Due to lack of organization and gathering RSVPs on my part, I called 3D the morning of my picnic to place an order for 20+ people, to be ready by 3pm. Across the board, everyone was raving about the food.
Flavor and crispness of the Fried chicken! Cheesey goodness of the Mac and Cheese! Flavorful, moist and meaty Curry goat! With rice and peas, cabbage to balance. All done on time, packed to carry, and the price was right. I over estimated the quantities a bit, so I get curry goat and cabbage for the next few days!

Curry goat? Fantastic.
Stew peas? Delicious.
Oxtail? Wonderful.
Beef patties? Authentic.
I love 3D’s so much that I’ve walked 20min to get there. I first came here when I attempted to go to Islands. The line at Islands wasn’t even that long, but the service was obviously slow (we were there for 10 minutes and it seemed no one had a spare moment to acknowledge us). So my friend suggested 3D’s and man oh man, I am so happy I discovered it. The food is great, and I’ve never had an issue with the service. They aren’t stingy with their portions (their lunch special is packed to the BRIM), which I love, and their menu is extensive. Definitely the best Jamaican food I’ve had here in Brooklyn (amidst extensive competition). I even liked their jerk pork (which I hear is best on the weekends), and I don’t eat jerk pork outside of Jamaica. $ 10 credit card minimum — GO!

Stop by after wondering at BBG for hours. And dont have gut to stop by at BBG’s café, their food price trully scare me away.
Order small size goat curry, its come with huge portion of lamb meat, rice bean and cabbage.
I love the rice and cabbage, the taste just righ right, but the goat bit salty, but since i am salty person it doesnt bother me. Keep telling myself to finish the meal but i gave up at ¾, my tummy gave me red light.
Will comeback whenever visit BBG.

I was super exhausted on Sunday so sent Hubby out to pick up dinner here. It’s definitely a hole in the wall, so I’d recommend pick up ONLY from this place. Especially because the food is stick-​to-​your-​belly hearty and delicious! Hubby got an order of the oxtail and I got the goat curry. Both were good, but I liked the oxtail better. They were both served over rice and beans, which a generous helping of sweet, fried plantains and some lettuce to add some balance to the heavy meal. Very generous portions and about $ 12/​each for dinner!

Came in for a quick taste (walked back from Brooklyn Indoor flea and stopped by Natural Blend for their ital stew. Already somewhat full but still want to try it out). Odd that Unilocal totally missed the place. It’s a small storefront, no restrooms. There was a line out the door. Everything is behind the counter but since it’s Saturday there are Escovitch fish (mmm) and Tripe-​and-​beans. Ordered a beef patty to go, service is the usual relaxed Jamaican type. The crust was crisp and flavorful, decent beef filling, price is great. Too bad I am not down for a takeout meal. Will definitely come back.

Recently I’ve been eating more Caribbean food. 3D Bakery serves a good selection of Caribbean food. I had the curry chicken from here and it was delicious. The meat was tender and had so many flavors. It’s not the spicy kind of curry, just a tad of spice. I will be returning to try other items on the menu. And best of all, it’s well priced.

This place exactly not a whole in the wall spot but it is close to that category.
We were in the area visiting Brooklyn Museum and decided to grab a bite. Isalnds which nearby was packed (I actually did not have good experience at Islands last time I was there).
While walking we stumbled upon this place, they were ready to close the place. I spoke to the owner he said they some food remaining. I had the curried jerk chicken with rice which comes with salad. My friends had the ribs with rice.
It was about $ 7 – 8 bucks for a small size and the small size is actually a lot of food. Our food was delish, so flavorful and tasty. The guy was friendly and nice and accommodated us even when he was about the shop.
Looking for good and reasonably proved jamaican food then come here.
FYI — They just have 2 – 3 seats inside so it is mostly a take out spot.

We were starving after first Saturday at Brooklyn museum and of course Island had a huge wait so we kept on walking. Eventually we stopped at 3D bakery remembering having some really good beef patties in the past.
Of course at around 9pm there were no patties in fact they were just about to close but we convinced the gentleman to give us food. No lie, we pulled him back into the place and he actually agreed (probably seeing our famished slightly tipsy faces) and admitted he only had oxtail and chicken stew.
2 oxtails and 1 chicken stew later… OMG one of the best oxtails I’ve had. Not to mention the rice & beans being delicious, soft and fresh tasting despite how late it was.
We thanked him and found a stoop to eat our food on. Perfect Saturday night dinner in Brooklyn and I totally recommend this spot– it’s affordable and delicious.

We wanted to eat at The Island but they weren’t ready until 12:30pm so we were lucky to find 3D Bakery had oxtail & other items on the menu outside their front window.
It’s a tiny place with only 3 stool so must everyone does take-​out.
We got for lunch:
mini oxtail lunch $ 6.5 — it’s lots of white rice w/​beans, some oxtail, some veggies & a plantain. I didn’t eat the plantain — looked fried. Oxtail was yummy, rice was good, veggies so-​so.
B. got Curry Goat lunch $ 6.5 in Mini size. He liked it ok, I found my oxtail was better!
Chicken feet soup $ 3.5 — soup was tasty, if a little bit salty, we liked the chicken feet too.
Ginger beer — is ginger soda & it was very homemade taste. Very spicy! I liked it.
B. got a Pineapple soda — he liked it.
We paid Cash, not sure if they take credit.

Great place for a quick beef patty on the go. Meat was nicely spiced and the dough, while it could have been less thick near the rind went nicely with the whole endeavor.

I enjoy their oxtails. I do not enjoy the homeless looking people that hang inside and outside.

I really like their jerk chicken, I will be back for more. It is a small spot and has about 3 seats by the window, not a place to go sit down and enjoy your food. It is more for take out, on that note enjoy the food!

The best oxtail in Brooklyn!

I ventured into this spot since it is in my new Prospect Heights ‘hood– and I really found a gem!
Yes, there is no «ambiance» to be heard of in this oft-​put «hole in the wall» but the small, old wall-​facing bar stools and frequently slamming door behind you as you order is quite ambient for people who like true old school, neighborhood small businesses who put an emphasis on food & less on décor (after all, you don’t eat the walls in a resturaunt).
This place is quite busy during lunchtime and in the evenings, so come prepared to order quickly and be succinct about your order. It is a get in/​get out type of place with only a few chairs facing a wall to eat if you are really intent on staying to eat.
Lunch specials are $ 5– I had the jerk chicken: fabulous blending of spices with the right amount of heat and a touch of sweetness that is subtle enough to meld the spices and the chicken was quite tender. It was amazing and surpasses most other places in the neighborhood.
Definitely go there!

Some mornings you wake up craving okra and codfish. It just sucks in those moments that it happens, when you realize that this meal is not a part of your recipe arsenal and quite frankly, your mental Rolodex is drawing a blank on where to purchase this meal from. After stumbling upon several closed establishments, 3D appeared and had large pots capable of fulfilling my craving on an early Sunday morning. So I was very happy from that perspective, but taste wise lots was missing and it completely took away from the joy of finding my Sunday morning treat.
By the way, this is a to go establishment with no sit-​down option.

i walked in and out of nearby natural blend. The smell and atmosphere there just wasn’t doing it for me. 3D didn’t have much going for it in the realm of atmosphere, though there’s something to be said about a tiny hole, packed with locals. The smell and food here was great. Though I was tempted by the fried chicken and beef patties, I held my head high and got a lunch special order of jerk chicken ($ 5). I got a tiny container, the kind you’d get two chicken wings in, stuffed with rice, beans, plaintains, some cabbage and of course the chicken. It did the job and everything was absolutely delicious.

My second trip to 3D’s Bakery. I was actually on my way to Natural Blend but saw all the local Jamaican’s in 3D’s and just had to go in… what better way of knowing you’re at the right place at the right time! I got the Beef and Chicken Patty at $ 1.75 each (raised it from $ 1.50). It was a great snack and treat after strolling the Brooklyn Museum. The fried chicken at $ 1 was also finger lick’n good. Don’t forget the Scotch Bonnet hot sauce if you like some spice to your food. Will have to order the specials and entrees next time. Can’t wait!!! Also, the lady at the counter was sweet and I loved her island accent.

I LOVE 3D!!! I live right up the block from the place and I frequent there often. I used to get jerk chicken but one night they ran out and had to resort to oxtail. I haven’t looked back since lol. I get it so often that one of the guys knows my order whenever I go there lol. Their curry chicken is also good but I stick with the oxtail. Breakfast is BOMB. I get callaloo with saltfish, dumpling and green banana and I’m always hooked up with some plantain on the side since I love plantain. I love coming in and seeing the TV on TVJ or the old men speaking in patois, it makes me feel so at ease and comfortable. There is one lady who kinda has an attitude that’s off and on so you gotta catch her on a good day. So go to 3D, get the oxtail with rice & peas and tell me what ya think!

Had the breakfast here when my husband and I was jogging in Prospect Park. It was just before 10am and apparently we ordered the last plates and was told that the Callao and Codfish are usually gone by 10am… So lucky for us we had a taste and that taste will definitely have us coming back!!!
Mmmmm

I went into 3D Bakery with my new roommate after he raved about this neighborhood favorite and their talent for making Jamaican beef patties. I’m happy to say 3D lived up to the hype– it did not disappoint.
I was greeted by the friendly woman at the counter, who later called me «Sweetie». She presented me with the two beef patties I had ordered, fresh from the oven, in exchange for a mere $ 3. amazing! The crust was perfectly flaky, the insides were gooey and spiced just right. Long after my satisfying meal from 3D Bakery, the taste lingers. I want more.
I’m not sure how anyone could possibly rate this place so poorly when it stands out as a Crown Heights gem. This place is the real deal.
