The Hummingbird Jerk House offers authentic Jamaican cuisine, including freshly made beef patties with flaky crust and flavorful jerk chicken. The menu features a variety of dishes, such as curry-based and jerk options with generous portions. Customers praise the brown stewed chicken for being hot and juicy even after a long drive, and the oxtail is described as so tender and flavorful that it falls off the bone. The brown stew chicken is perfectly spiced without being too sweet. The rice is highly appreciated for its taste, often not needing any sauce. The restaurant also serves refreshing sorrow, and many visitors recommend trying the curry goat next. The friendly service and welcoming atmosphere make it a spot worth revisiting, with great music for all ages and attentive staff. Some sides, like cabbage, may lack flavor, but the overall experience remains highly positive. The owner’s attention to guests, including young children, adds to its family-friendly vibe. Visitors frequently comment that it is the best Jamaican food in town and plan to return multiple times when in Tampa, Florida.
