Food tastes great and they serve heavy handed. The oxtail was great, the only thing missing was the beans. I guess thats the american way of making it. Over my family and I are satisfied.

The food was prepared just the way it was when I vacationed to Jamaica. The service was nothing short of amazing.

I see a lot of 4 and 5 stars in the reviews and I'm not sure how. For the reviewers this must be the only jerk place they've tried in the area or they're just being nice. The only positive comments I have is the prices are very reasonable and the portions are good. But on the flip side, I sadly have to say this was the worst Jamaican food I've had in the Tampa Bay Area. I got Jerk chicken but it was more like a barbeque-semi jerk flavor. The chicken I received seems to be a bit old. As KL would put it this was "my" experience but I won't be returning.

I'm not local to the area, but if I was, I'd be in trouble because this delicious spot would be a weekly stop! A year or two ago, I visited the mall after visiting the Florida Air Museum. My kids were hungry and I was not excited about buying overpriced, garbage mall food. When I saw Jamaica Delight my spirits picked up a bit and once I tried a few of their samples, I was all in! They have the most delicious brown stew chicken and they were so accommodating when I asked that they absolutely drench my rice in the broth. I was in heaven! My kids love their fried dumplings. They're huge and so delicious! If they haven't just finished cooking them, they will take them back for a quick reheat. I definitely recommend them warm! Just last weekend I stopped back in and I was so happy to see nothing had changed. The service was still amazing with everyone being so friendly and happy to share their amazing food. The brown stew chicken was just as good as the first time and the jerk chicken sample I tried was so yummy I was almost persuaded not to grab my old favorite, haha. Oh, and though only a small side, let me rave about their cabbage for a moment too! Oh, why does my homemade cabbage not even come close!? It's super tasty. The prices are really great, especially for the overall quality. I can only say wonderful things about Jamaica Delight! The only downfall for me, is it being 1.5 hours away. ?Kid-friendliness: Many of the sides can be ordered separately if you have any pickup eaters and I definitely recommend their yummy fried dumplings for a fun and filling snack for kiddos!

It was my first time going to this restaurant and have nothing but amazing feedback had the oxtail with peas and rice and cabbage and a piece of cornbread and let me tell you the oxtail was tender juicy and had good flavor. The peas and rice was fluffy, and also had a good flavor. The cabbage was smoky and spicy and best thing was the huge piece of cornbread buttery and sweet and full of flavor. Definitely will be coming back and the customer service was great.
Came into the mall with a hunger for Gyro. Found this spot and their delicious curry goat, rice and beans, and cabbage. My partner got the chicken curry. Absolutely melts in your mouth.

I have to say I love the oxtail. I have never had it before and was offered a sample and legit danced I was so happy I tried it. My guy side eyed me while I did, but well, I guess he already understands the joy of the food he makes. ? I give all stars bc let's be honest, it's a mall. They do what they can to make it enjoyable.
