Taste of Jamaica is a small bodega filled with authentic Jamaican spices, herbs, snacks, and more (lots of interesting Jamaican goods). I tried their jerk chicken meal and the flavor was great, the spice blend was perfect. The jerk sauce drizzled on top was good but I just wish they gave more to eat with the rice. Overall a decent jerk chicken meal!

There was no customers inside, but there was one lonely worker. Immediately she said hi and asked what she could get for me. (I already looked at the menu online before arriving, but I was still undecided.) I decided to go with one of my favorite foods, Oxtails. I got it with rice and beans. When I opened the container, I was surprised to see cabbage and plantains in there as well. (Next time, I'm definitely getting more plantains on the side.) The food was perfect. The oxtails...

I can honestly say, I use to eat here almost 2 times a week but 2 years ago. I stopped coming because of the quality just wasn't there. Something has changed and I feel like they are back and better than every. I could taste the coconut in the rice and everything tasted fresh. Thank you Uber for that coupon.
