Love love love it here hands down my #1 jamaican resturaunt to go to. I had fried jerk, which is always good, not too spice ,but have a nice spice to it. My favorite is the BBQ jerk and they only have it on Tuesday. Everything have flavor unlike other jamaican resturaunts I've visited and food was tasteless and supper HOT. You will not be disappointed.

I truly love Taste of Jamaica more after every meal I buy. They prepare your order pretty quickly and it’s usually cooked hot. For today’s lunch I enjoyed jerk chicken with rice beans and cabbage. My meal was delish per usual. Good customer service from the cashier as well.

Amazing first experience. This was the Jerk chicken I had been waiting for. Juicy, tender, with the perfect amount of spice. Rice and beans, steamed cabbage, and plantains complimented the dish perfectly. This restaurant will now be a part of my family's eating out rotation. Great food, great staff, comfortable atmosphere. Well done!

Delicious! We got 2 Jerks and 1 Oxtail meal. The meals came with red beans and rice with a side of steamed cabbage. Take out only though. The Jerk chicken was juicy, tender, and spicey. The Oxtails was ok, not as tender as the jek, but it was still tasted good. Watch out for the bones though. The cabbage was tasty and well seasoned. Finally the red beans and rice was my favorite. It was a mixture of sweet, spicy, and savory. The best red beans and rice I've ever had. It kinda expensive but worth it. I'll be coming back - (2) Jerk Chicken meal for 15 ea - Oxtails meal for 20. - plus 15% tip Totally came out to 67
