“Island Spice place wins the race. Not many good places to eat in this area. Island Spice is on point. Great portion sizes and the jerk is done on a grill. Authentic jerk. Any other way is blasphemous. The chicken soup is delicious too. I will definitely be back again, again and again. Thank you for doing it RIGHT Island Spice.?????“

“The place is super busy! Someone said they could do better? They run out of items due to such a high sales rate. That's not their fault, people love their food and buy it. I'm a white guy, I've eaten their curry goat, ox tails, j*** anything pork, chicken, shrimp. The patties sell out everyday. They could do better? No mister customer you should do better by yourself and call ahead! I've been going there for 4 years NEVER A BAD MEAL!“

“Extraordinary.... the welcome was warm and welcoming. The waitress was patient and explained to us the dishes and drinks offered. We were spoiled for choice. Once served we were lucky enough to have 4 places in a high chair. A true luxury. I recommend. If it were possible to eat on site the restaurant would be packed. Prices are really reasonable for eating in NY. Don't change anything.“

“A very special place of warmth and true Jamaican hospitality in NYC. I have hosted several events here (3 cooking classes for students and a special pre-wedding fun "game night" party) and everyone loves generous-hearted Chef Mom, the delicious food she prepares and the wide open welcoming space. What a treat to have this gem in the middle of the city.“

“I was in the area. I googled this place and I wanted to give it a try. I was very impressed with the rice and peas and shrimp which had some heat to it. Not overbearing and very enjoyable mixing it with the rice. The lady who served me was very nice and I appreciated my meal I will comeback again.“

“As someone that has been going to Jamaica 2 or 3 times per year for 35 years, I can tell you the Jerk Chicken is some of the best that I have had. I look forward to trying the oxtail stew. Highly recommended. Great Jamaican staff. Ya Mon. Irie!“

“My friend brought me some J*** Chicken with Dark rice and sweet plantains. Unreal! So much taste, chicken was fresh, the plantains were delicious. I had gotten the hot sauce out of the fridge and didn't even need to use it, the spices were on point. I going to take our for tomorrow also I live 35 minutes away but this is worth the trip...Excellent!!!“
“I ordered off Uber eats and was very surprised by how nice the portion was especially for the price. The food was delicious. I got the jerk pork and also the barbecue pork ribs and both were fantastic. The rice and everything was just so well seasoned, and I’ll definitely be back. Side note I lowkey wish it came with fried plantains but nevertheless the food was AMAZING!!“

“This is a great place to eat. Vendors are friendly and food is really good. The j*** chicken was my favorite (really hot, yes!) and the rice is soft, well cooked. They also have a variety of salad mix. The potato salad was really good. I'm not a fish eater but even the seafood smell good. Price is reasonable, I think it's 9$ a pound but less money if the weight is less. It's definitely worth it.Vegetarian options: They have a variety of mixes for salad.“

“Recently went back end of August I have not been here in years I use come by a lot due to old jobs. It's still awesome! Got goat, j*** chicken, and spinach patty the dishes come with rice and beans and sweet plantains. The flavor and freshness is top notch. I always enjoyed the homemade Jamaican patties they make here once you try them you will always want them like this. The prices are very fair and the dishes come in a variety of sizes to choose from.“
