“We are from out of town and were looking for an authentic Jamaican place in the area. The lazy jerk did not disappoint! We ordered the oxtails and goat curry with rice and peas and plantains. The food was hot, fresh, delicious and authentic! The goat curry was on the spicy side but that’s ok because I love spicy! Plantains were spot on and rice also perfect. Small business owner who clearly takes pride in her cooking and great service. Would come back again any time we are in Clearwater! Thanks again and be sure to try out this great Jamaican experience!“

The trays were stunning—like edible works of art—and the quality was top-notch across the board. And the cherry on top? They worked within our budget without compromising a single detail.

“We went to the Wild Iris while on vacation & not only was it the best breakfast and Bloody Mary, we had the absolute best server. Jeni (I believe was her name) took the time to sit down and play with our son in the kids area.. 12/10 recommend everything about this place and will absolutely be visiting again when we come back next year!“

Note my 2 stars for food was based on me being a vegetarian. I could taste the meat in the eggs. I am sure that wouldn’t be an issue for most.“

“We have always appreciated the family atmosphere, the Manager on the front end & the deli staff. What we were taken aback with was your new cashier. We purchased plenty with you recently, and while adding our phone number as she requested, she grew impatient with my spouse because he is slower then she expected. Everyone is kind there except this individual.“
