Island Thyme Grill

I am so going back! My bowl was amazing and the portion was very generous. I highly recommend the plantains. They were so delicious and tender. The jerk chicken was so juicy and though they flag it as spicy, it’s a gentle heat that shouldn’t scare anyone away.

The restaurant itself is adorable and aesthetic, will be a go to place for me to impress folks from out of town. The staff was so friendly and helpful. I took my bowl to go and it stayed warm on the drive home. They also had well spaced indoor and outdoor seating with great music playing.

The food tasted amazing! I got the Rincon since it was the only vegetarian/vegan option but you are able to make your own bowl, all the food is healthy and delicious! The space was super cute, spacious & a small outdoor patio. There's a parking lot which is also nice!

This place is wonderful! The options and flavors are incredible. I recommend adding plantains to any order for a dose of natural sweetness. The staff is super friendly and the portions are very generous.

I’ve come here two days in a row just to try something new! Today we had to wait while they made some more plantains and they gave us some free street corn for the wait, awesome service!

I highly recommend. Would love this place to stay open because I definitely plan to keep coming back!!

One of a kind place, so much better than Chipotle or Freebirds. The actual ingredients/toppings are just fresher and better seasoned than the other burrito/wrap shops around town.

Wow! So so good - I got the jerk chicken salad and added the plantains. Tons of flavor and a really generous portion. Highly suggest getting the plantains too - they were awesome. The ambiance in the shop was so cute! I don’t know who decorated it but they did a great job. It has such flair and I can’t wait to bring out of town friends here. Places like this make Austin great! Tasty food, great ambience and wonderful service.

I was driving around town and decided to stop in due to the appealing colors of the establishment and I was not disappointed. The food is served immediately and is fresh and satisfying. You can tell the food is made with love. I loved the plantains as an addition to the meal. I love the people and food and would 10/10 recommend anyone if they are in Austin!

I ordered this through Uber eats and this was my first time trying this restaurant. I got the Marley bowl and side of plantains. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. It was really tasty. It was the perfect balance of spice and really good flavor. I highly recommend this place to anyone that wants to try something new! 10/10

Such wholesome, healthy, and delicious food! The bowls we got were amazing and the toppings you can get on your food are super creative and delicious! The drinks we got were awesome too, highly recommend their passion fruit fresca! Inside is super cute too! Definitely will be coming back!!💚💚

If you're looking for something healthy and definitely different - this is where you want to go. All of their protein options are delicious and they have so many topping options, but most of all those plantains!!! They also have really tasty drinks and sides. This has become one of my go-to's here in Austin. (try the different sauces too!)

The restaurant itself is so cute with a mural outside and a cute wall for pictures inside too. The music will also make you want to come back.

They're really good with take-out and it travels very well!

Super tasty! I had the coconut curry beef bowl, plantains and guac. (I was hungry.) All so good! Service was quick and the staff were friendly. I’ll be ordering again soon! Super glad they’re on Door Dash, too :)

Expect a “build your own” experience similar to Chipotle, etc. but Caribbean-inspired with MUCH better and tastier ingredients. The owners are awesome and always there making sure things are done right. And DO NOT skip their plantains. Best I’ve ever had!

Very tasty and fresh! I come back for the fried sweet plantains /maduros, pulled pork (lots of lime), and street corn / elote. The workers are great and the owner (I think) let me try some street corn on the house. It's also super cute and cheery inside.

Was really excited to check this place out after reading about it as a great place for pandemic takeout. Delicious, hearty bowls that are filling and have those comforting Caribbean flavors. I ordered the vegetarian plantain bowl (not its official name) and added jerk-spiced chickpeas. The food manages to be both fresh and cozy. I can see it being a big hit with the college crowd as it’s close to UT. Love the decor inside and anticipate it becoming an Instagram-worthy hotspot once we’re free to move about post-pandemic. Brings some new flavor to the fast-casual counter service/build-your-own concept.

so delicious! I havent been able to find any good plantains since moving to austin & these are fantastic. I made my own bowl with the jerk chicken as well - yum! Will definitely be coming back again :)

Absolutely delicious! I had the Mojo Pork white rice bowl, and omg...it was so good. I had to take it to go, but the restaurant was so pretty inside. You definitely get island-vibes being in there. And they have a beautiful mural just outside. I'm definitely going back for more!

The service was very quick and the staff are friendly. I didn't even have to call for curbside--a young woman graciously brought my food out to my car. The food is delicious and the bowls are pretty big--much larger than I expected. Definitely recommend!

Decided to try this place after work today, since it was near where i was going and saw that it was inexpensive and seemed relatively healthy-ish (I got a salad). I was not disappointed! The food was great, portion size was perfect, and customer service was steller. The two guys who served me were easy on the eyes and super kind. Can't wait to try some other things on the menu. Thanks~

Great food, great atmosphere, and great service here! Every time I go (I'm a regular since it's THAT good), I love it even more. I'd describe it as a more flavorful Chipotle with a way cuter vibe. I usually do a build-your-own mojo pork salad bowl which is delicious and filling. I love that they have many healthy options but also yummy treats - hello, plantains and piña coladas! For a flavorful and super affordable meal, go check out Island Thyme!

Delicious food, perfect portions, much healthier and more unique than Chipotle at a great price. They do dine-in inside and outside. The Caribbean beach vibes are on point and it’s a great place to take selfies either inside or against their beautiful mural outside the restaurant. I tried the Calypso Cay and the Montego bowls and they were both undeniably delicious. I love this new spot and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a fresh palette of Caribbean flavors.

The lady and gentleman working there tonight were so helpful, welcoming, and sweet. The food hit the spot and I’m very happy with the portion sizes. Fast, tasty, great portion size per dollar ratio, healthy(?). I’ll be back for sure.
