“Kingston Delight has been a go-to Jamaican food stop in North Miami Beach for over 25 years, and it continues to serve the community with its consistent, flavorful menu and buffet-style daily offerings. As someone who’s frequented this spot for years, I can honestly say it holds a special place in the heart of the city’s Caribbean food scene.

The restaurant is known for its authentic Jamaican dishes—from oxtail and curry goat to fried dumplings and callaloo. The buffet setup makes it easy to pop in and grab a hearty meal without the wait, perfect for lunch breaks or quick dinner pick-ups.

On my most recent visit, I tried the curry chicken, and while it was a bit saltier than usual, the portion was generous, and the flavor was still on point. One thing I’ve always appreciated is that even when one dish misses slightly, the overall quality and soul in the food brings me back.

Whether you’re a longtime local or just visiting, Kingston Delight remains a North Miami Beach classic for anyone craving authentic Jamaican comfort food.“

“The food is really good! Omg! The conch is so fresh! The cabbage is very tasty….. Everything was delicious!“

“JRK in Aventura absolutely knocked it out of the park! We recently used them to cater an event, and our guests could not stop raving about the food. The jerk chicken, barbecue chicken and jerk fried rice had an incredible, scrumptious flavor. The rice and peas, steamed cabbage and sweet plantains were also cooked to absolute perfection.
​Not only was the food amazing, but the delivery was also right on time. Multiple guests were asking for the restaurant's location and insisted they would be visiting in person soon. If you want delicious Jamaican food, JRK is the place to go! Thank you JRK for making our event a success!“

“I loved everything about this location. The drive thru is the biggest seller for me.
Patties to me are considered fast food so the drive thru is a no brainer. I wish they all had a drive thru.
Employees are friendly and the patties are yummy 😝“

“Went to the Miramar location. The customer service was outstanding. The patties are absolutely phenomenal. They are well packaged as well. The coconut bread was warm and soft. The drinks upfront my goodness so good! This place is amazing! Bravoooooo!“

“we got to eat here today .... it gave me that up north Bodega island feel. we enjoyed our goat n chicken roti w pepper. much love ❤“

“The food is terrible and a complete rip-off—definitely poor quality. Anyone giving this place 4 stars is either intoxicated or has never tasted good food. The Lo Mein is mushy, tasteless, and made me want to throw up. The fried rice is soggy, overly salty, and has no flavor. Absolutely disgusting.“

“Great authentic roti, large portions, made fresh daily. Duck curry, goat curry, etc., etc.“

“Tried the chicken, fries, and plantains today at Big Yard and everything was amazing! The ranch sauce was so good too. My husband got the stew chicken and absolutely loved it, especially the plantains. The food was flavorful, fresh, and definitely hit the spot. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Amanda is seriously so friendly and one of the best bartenders! And u don’t come across someone that knows how to actually make drinks good! And the music was chef kiss! Switched it up but definitely loved the 90s 200s RnB ! 10/10 !“

“food and the employees are awesome 👍 I really love their Jerk Chicken Patty 😋“

“First time trying Coconutz Fusion, the staff was super friendly and welcoming. Small place, with several tables, and very clean. We ordered oxtails and goat curry, both with rice and peas. Delicious and authentic, definitely hit the spot because I took a fat nap right after.“

“The Bouillon was good. I would like two pieces of meat. I got 1 big piece of beef. It was well seasoned and just the right amount of spicy. I also got the spaghetti. Wasn't the best I've had. It was on the dry side. And didn't have any peppers or onion. I would go back to try something else.
The service was good. The older lady was very nice and the young girl speaks softly but she is also pleasant.
Tip. The hours on Google are not accurate. Saturday, they were open at 9:30-10AM. This is around the time I went.“

“Great food and atmosphere! My faves on the menu are the authentic Jamaican jerk pork and chicken with festival or bammy, the seafood platter is to die for, and the oxtail is boss! The cocktail choices are also ridiculously amazing!“

“Let's talk about authentic. The atmosphere...is just like those chill spots back home in Jamaica. The food....the chicken..the pork.. the CONCH. Amazing. Well seasoned to the bone. No knock off oven jerk.. REAL outside.. on the grill Jerk. You won't regret it. Go Jerk...Keep it up. So far you have the BEST jerk in Miami“

“Excellent food, service and portion sizes!!!“

The take out containers & utensils were environmental friendly. Which I liked even more!
The food was very tasty, had some spicy to it. I will definitely visit there again!“

“Omg!!! Oxtail meal was amazing!!!! Oxtail was tender and soft.. more importantly very flavorful!! Rice and peas was really good as well. Plantains very sweet.. Def recommend!!!!

The plate was overflowing, completely full of goodness. The French fries are lacking but the conch and shrimp makes up for it in abundance.

“It gave everything that needed to be given. I had the Montego Bay shrimp and cabbage. It was amazing and flavorful. I will definitely come here again and recommend it to anyone I know coming to Miami!!!“

“Ordered via Doordash.
The food is seasoned well, but would be so much better if they weren't so spicy. The Ground Beef Spaghetti is so spicy that it's inedible... sucks because it would've been good. The Fried Fish Dinner was spicy too but I was able to finish it with 3 bottles of water. The Boulet dinner had a little kick to it where it was tolerable. The Chicken Wings With Fries were okay.“

“Favorite Haitian restaurant! Best snapper in town .
I love the rice , sometimes I just get the rice cuz it’s that’s good . Good portions , they have a pool table in the patio and play the Heat game while u wait for the food . The owner is nice and never forgets your order . Hidden gem“
