“I recently visited 881 Grab & Go, and I must say, the experience exceeded my expectations. As someone who is typically a very selective eater, I was pleasantly surprised that I did not need to modify my order at all.
The Cheyney Sandwich was absolutely exceptional—perfectly prepared, with fresh, flavorful fish that truly stood out. Every bite was well-balanced and satisfying, making it an instant favorite. I also had the oxtail mac and cheese, which was equally enjoyable, rich in flavor, and a great complement to the meal.
Beyond the food, the overall experience was just as impressive. The service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere was inviting. The soul music playing in the background created a comforting and enjoyable ambiance while I waited for my order.
This establishment is undoubtedly worth every bite, and the Cheyney Sandwich has officially become my new Friday evening favorite. I highly recommend giving them a try.“

“As an event coordinator for our program, I had the pleasure of working with Milton from Jamaican Kitchen to cater a meeting we hosted in December for 55 attendees in Hamden. Although the nearest Jamaican Kitchen location was in Bristol, Milton kindly agreed to deliver the order to Hamden, going above and beyond to accommodate our needs. Having previously enjoyed their delicious food for a smaller group at the Hartford location, I knew Jamaican Kitchen would be an excellent choice. Milton was instrumental in helping me design a menu that fit within our budget while addressing the dietary restrictions of some attendees. The menu included rice and beans, steamed cabbage salad, sweet plantains, mini cocktail chicken and beef patties, jerk chicken, and vegetarian stew. Milton delivered the meal ahead of schedule, and everything arrived warm, neatly packaged, and clearly labeled—making service seamless. His professionalism, positive attitude, and responsiveness to my various inquiries made the entire experience stress-free. The attendees were thrilled with the meal, with particular praise for the cocktail patties. If you are looking for authentic Jamaican cuisine, exceptional service, and a reliable caterer, I highly recommend Milton and Jamaican Kitchen.“

“The food Is pretty good. The service isn't bad. It's just a bit unorganized and quite slow. They only accept cash, but they do have a ATM area. You can differently have a conversation and talk.It's in a church cafeteria. I would encourage. Trying to at least once. The turkey wings are my favorite from this location.“

I ordered a jerk chicken sandwich (fantastic flavor) and my husband got the curry goat platter and a beef patty. The portions are rather large and it isn’t too expensive. Food was delicious. Would definitely come here again.“

“I come here every now & again and so far my visits (the food & service) has been good. I recommend calling & ordering ahead because it's always crowded when i come here & it's a bit of a waiting line during certain times of the day. Other than that it's a good restaurant 👍🏽“

“I went last night around 9:30pm thinking they were going to tell me they were out of many items but not only did they have EVERYTHING, they also moved quick! I complimented the one girl working the register because she was doing the damn thing! even recalled my order perfectly despite servicing many people at once. Great service, food came out quick & was delicious. That girl who works behind the counter Sunday evening needs a raise!“

WOW“

Her handling our various questions related to our orders; all while serving in-person customers was impressive!! She was fantastic as well as the other staff. Would certainly recommend this restaurant!“
