What a vibe! Food is excellent. I ordered the jerky chicken enchiladas and the banana coconut pudding and I’ll def come back for them again. The Mexican server man (corlano?) who brought the food out to me was so friendly and warm. This place is a hidden secret that people should know about 10/10

First time. This is an excellent Jamaica casual cafe. Dishes include jerk dishes chicken, shrimp and salmon and a wide menu.
Parking consists of meter street parking and free establishment parking.
Nice helpful staff that take your order at a window gives out number that results in food service at the table
. I ordered jerk chicken and the chicken melted on the fork, the Jamaica rice was delicious and the grilled banana finished a perfect dish.
Restaurant gets my recommendation because the place has been here for a long time with excellent word of mouth .It is charming! Delicious food!

Two parties of African Americans were waiting in line to order, with 1 Hispanic lady in line after. An Older Hispanic lady worker wearing glasses, calls the single Hispanic patron from the back of the line and takes her order before the 2 parties of AA, from the take out line. Then proceeded not to take any other orders from any of the African Americans who were first... Blatant racism

It is over 20 years since I first dined at Cha Cha Chicken, and I’m so delighted to find it’s still going strong. Just off the plane from England, checked into the hotel, and there was cha Cha, obviously the place to eat. Well done, keep it up!

I was there a few weeks ago...ordered over the phone, when I arrived, the food wasn't what I was expecting. The restaurant had an attitude but changed the order to what I wanted. It was expensive, really wasn't impressed and I got sick shortly after eating the food. Maybe it was a coincidence but

Amazing food. A staple in the venice/santa monica area. My go to for great food when I go to the beach. Customer service is great, the guy taking your order is such a nice person and knowledgeable on what to eat. Seating area is nice and clean. There is a bathroom and the food came out quick. I highly recommend and come here often.

Great for a fast and flavorful lunch. The cha cha chicken was really good, but unfortunately the salmon was overcooked.
The place is super cute !

This Caribbean spot is tucked near Pico Blvd in Santa Monica, serving flavorful jerk chicken and rice with peas. My chicken was juicy and spiced subtly with heat—I could feel the smoke flavor in every bite. The setting is small and colorful inside, with Caribbean music playing softly. My side of plantains added sweetness and texture. Friendly staff made it feel like a neighborhood favorite hidden from tourist eyes

Perfect... tell a friend.
After 2 weeks on the road with my wife and 3 kids, having a home cooked meal is really something special. Kids were quite, wife was happy, food is spectacular... what else could you ask for.
Do yourself a favor... pick something, anything on the menu and order it. You will not be disappointed.
