OUR STORY
At the heart of Island Queens is a story of love, tradition, and passion for Caribbean cuisine. Founded by a dynamic mother-daughter duo, Chef KJ and Keyshia, the restaurant is a testament to the powerful bond that food can create.
​
It all started in their kitchen, where the two would spend hours preparing family meals, sharing stories, and experimenting with flavors passed down from generations. What began as simple moments of cooking together evolved into a shared dream of opening a restaurant that would bring the vibrant and soulful flavors of the Caribbean to the community.
​
With a deep respect for their heritage and a love for the culinary arts, they decided to take a leap of faith. Chef KJ brought her wealth of knowledge and traditional recipes, while Keyshia infused a modern touch, adding creativity and flair to every dish. Together, they crafted a menu that celebrates the essence of the Caribbean—fresh, bold, and filled with heart.
​
At Island Queens, every dish tells a story, every ingredient is chosen with care, and every meal is prepared with the same love and dedication that inspired their journey. From mouth-watering jerk chicken to a twist on traditional dishes, each bite transports you to the warm, sun-kissed islands.
​
We invite you to join us to experience the flavors that bring our family together. This is more than just a restaurant—it's a place where tradition meets innovation, and where the love of food is shared with every guest.
