After what appeared to be a mistake in my last Jamaican joint review (whoa, that has a few connotations), I thought I was being punished by immediately being sent to another one by my random name generator. After smacking it on the side a few times and shaking it, I found it to be working correctly, so I proceeded to Carmen's Restaurant and Catering in Palm Bay, FL.

We ordered take out a few weeks back. The food was delicious! So much flavor! Presentation was beautiful even for take out too. I also noticed how clean the inside was when I walked in to pick it up. The owner and chef were also extremely nice. The chef walked out in a very sharp, professional looking black chef's coat. You can tell the owners and staff definitely take pride in their work. It's certainly appreciated by the community. We will be back 💖
Carmen’s restaurant, a breath of fresh air to the Palm Bay Area! Infusing the Jamaican menu with American classics, there is something for everyone!
My family had the mannish water soup, curried goat, jerk pork, fried chicken and truffle fries. Everything was delicious! The natural juices are also a welcome treat.
Friendly staff, fast service, what more could you ask for!
