Friendly and helpful staff, great environment, attentive. my first time having Caribbean food and got the jerk chicken, the extra sauce is highly recommended for the extra kick.
Deliciousness….
10 out of 10
I usually love this place. We ordered 2 oxtail dinners. The portions were small the meat was not cooked thoroughly and there were slivers in the food from cutting the meat in small portions. Very disappointed. Not sure if they changed owners or chefs but not ok.

Back A Yard Catering & Take Out is a restaurant known for its authentic Jamaican cuisine. The rice is a standout, and the service is both quick and friendly, with staff who are kind and welcoming. The chicken, particularly the jerk chicken breast, is well-seasoned and flavorful, reminiscent of Jamaican cooking in Jamaica itself. The beef patty is a customer favorite, and the mango drink is highly recommended. The chicken can be a bit dry at times, but this can be remedied by adding water or extra sauce. Recent reviews highlight the oxtails as tender and well-seasoned, and the mac and cheese for its perfect cheese to noodle ratio. The rice and beans are also praised for being seasoned well and cooked perfectly. Plantains have surprised some customers, who found them to be incredibly good. Overall, Back A Yard Catering & Take Out is a great option for those looking for delicious and authentic Caribbean food, although some customers noted a lack of dining space.
