I live just a two-minute walk from Jerk'd Caribbean Kitchen, a restaurant that perfectly blends modern and traditional vibes. The food is flavorful, exotic, and beautifully presented. I particularly love the oxtail, which is bursting with flavor, the stew goat that captures authentic Jamaican tradition, and the perfectly cooked jerk chicken—ideal for any chicken lover. The staff, especially Mr. Mirkale, are well-trained and welcoming; I even asked his name without mentioning I was writing a review. I can easily see myself making this spot a weekly favorite. Portions are generous and prices reasonable, so it won’t break the bank. I’ve told the staff how much I appreciate their food, service,...

At Jerk'd Caribbean Kitchen, the jerk chicken fell short of expectations—it wasn’t grilled to perfection. The sauce was spicy but lacked richness. True barrel-grilled jerk chicken should have a distinct smoky flavor and perfectly rendered, crispy skin, which this dish did not deliver. The chicken also wasn’t properly cleaned; the yellow skin remained on the heel of the leg, and the chicken wasn’t browned enough. While I wouldn’t return for the chicken, the soursop juice was enjoyable—just be sure to ask for plenty of ice to keep it refreshingly cold. My husband enjoyed the ginger lemonade from the menu as well.
Horrible experience.. Walked in, was not greeted. They refused to mix chicken been though I said just charge me extra. Asked for a cup to give water to my dog and they charged me $1- wow! You charge $4.50 for a 20oz water but can’t give a complimentary cup. The staff mumbles under their breath. My first time here they should understand I don’t know the menu. Kindness goes along way. On top of that I was over charged for a salad. $14.95 $8.95 upgrade. Jerk chicken was dry. Collards way too salty. The only thing I could say is the fish sandwich was good place was clean. Will not return..
This is a cute little Jamaican spot. The decor was great. After passing the decor I was met with two friendly employees. I told the gentlemen that I was a vegan and that prompt him to get everything they offer that's vegan so I can try for free. I appreciated this. May I say everything he gave me tasted delicious! When I finished eating he brought samples of each juice they offer. My mother in law is not a vegan and he did the same for her but offered her non vegan food. I will be going again. Give them a try!

I've been visiting Jerk'd Caribbean Kitchen for years and have always enjoyed the food. I can be quite indecisive, but my server today, Mikale, was exceptional! He was patient, explained the menu thoroughly, and offered great recommendations. He was very kind and answered all my questions. I want to thank him and give him five stars! My only downside is that the portion containers seem to have gotten smaller over time. Overall, the food remains delicious and the staff is friendly. Thank you!
Stopped here on a whim. I love Jamaican food and consider myself a pro @flavor and taste. I had oxtail with rice and peas plantains and cabbage. $30 is ridiculous for a single plate just because it has 3 sides that?s like two teaspoons each. On topof that nothing tasted Jamaican but it did taste like it could pass for Spanish food. It was ok but nothing to write home about.
The food was amazing. I was especially surprised by the kale it was the most delicious kale I've ever eaten. The jerk Chicken was perfect not dry the festival was delicious and I enjoyed everything that I ate I ordered so much food and desserts and itwas worth every penny. I would come back again.
We fell in love with Jamaican cuisine after our vacation in early 2023. This was our first Jamaican restaurant in the US. We have visited this eatabliahmebt twicw and the Chicken and oxtail hit the spot when we are craving jamaican cuisine. Food is pricey and the portions are on the smaller side.

"The food is good, but there is not enough staff, and it takes a long time to catch a waiter. They are not attentive enough."
