This is a review for their catering, which I had the pleasure of trying yesterday.
When I think of Caribbean food, I don't really think "vegetarian-friendly" but Kaya does a really great job of blasting that misconception to smithereens.
I very much enjoyed the veggie Cuban sandwich - I have had sauteed mushrooms and cheese on bread many times in my life, but never has it been so delicious! The black bean spread is super flavorful and it makes for a wonderful sandwich experience. The chips are great too, and the cilantro-lime dressing from the salad makes the perfect dipping sauce for everything.
The salad itself is a little plain - basically just mixed greens and pepitas. But man, that dressing is good! The other lackluster item was the veggie paella. It was less flavorful overall, and there was hardly any pineapple. Due to time in transit, the rice had clumped up quite a bit. It also lacked the crispy crust I expect on a paella.
Looking at Kaya's menu, I'm intrigued to go check it out in person, but I'll have to save it for a special occasion (it's pretty pricey). I wish the veggie cuban was on their regular menu - it's sooooo good!
