My Dad and I had the jerk chickenš„. We got the regular size and the portions were huge. The staff was super friendly and welcoming. Rice š„ Cabbage š„ DONT THINK JUST GO!!!
should have five stars for how MANY vegan options there are on the menuā¦.. plus itās all delicious!! the owners are beyond kind. there are almost too many choices of what to get.. definitely order the plantains!
First time ordering, got the combo plate. Shared with hubby and it was DEEEELICIOUS! Rice was perfection, and the cabbage was delicious. It was hard to decide which of the trio we liked best! The curry is subtle, and so flavorful. The icing on the cake was the Jonni cakes! Simple, and just sweet enough to make your sweet tooth happy. Weāll be returning.!!
I just wanna say Iāve been coming here for a little over a year now I have seen a lot of growth in this business, they have never cease to amaze me. Food is always quality. Price is FAIR you get what you pay for. I see that some complaints about size thatās ridiculous order the large. Iāll always come back this is my dedicated restaurant. Thank you all for your effort and endless work!
First time at this place and loved their vegan options!šWe had the BBQ tofu and Jamaican patties, Mac & cheese, and jerk lentil balls. All vegan, all delicious!
One word - AMAZING. Everything about this wonderful tiny gem in Phoenix is 100% perfect. The owner and his family are so very kind, with an energy and vibration that really evokes care and love for everyone and the food they provide. Starting with the cabbage as a side, absolutely the best out there. Slightly tender, spiced just right and melt in your mouth with a little chew. The shrimp are plump, fresh and also spiced just right. Cannot wait to come back and try the chicken and the tofu (which are NOT breaded, thankfully). Absolute diamond in the rough of Phoenix and worth a visit to this perfect place.

I love oxtails got a large with tip$44 I got a total of 2 medium and 1 small more rice and peas and cabbage this time I was very disappointed
Five Stars ā A Must-Try!
Iāve been enjoying Desert Island Eatery for months, and I keep coming back for one reason: the jerk chicken meal. The flavors are incredibleāthe chicken has just the right amount of spice to make it unforgettable. The rice and cabbage are the perfect sides, and the sweet plantains round it all out beautifully. Every meal is perfect every time.
Beyond the food, the owner and his family are truly wonderful people. Their warmth and hospitality make every visit special. I just finished another amazing meal and, even though Iām stuffed, Iām already looking forward to the next time. Canāt recommend this place enough!
Food is delicious but I was charged $2 for the Pepper Sauce š„“šµāš« $2!!! I begrudgingly paid it bc it's also delicious

The fod is really good here. I had the jerk chicken with yellow rice and cabbage. The plantains are also super delicious.

Thank you to V
Worth the wait, flakey savory slightly spicy Jamaican patties and a big ass Delicious Guava Limeade, def going back, hours are not traditional, however, I highly recommend, can't wait to taste another offering from their kitchen filled with delicious smells and a cook preparing food by singing to it, you can taste that love
