Jamaican Restaurants near Riverdale, GA

“I ordered a small chicken soup and immediately regretted not getting the extra extra large. It was that good. I was literally dancing while eating it 😂 I’ve never had soup like this before and I already can’t wait to go back. Plus, the owner was incredibly friendly and helpful, made the whole experience even better.“

“I LOOOOOVEEEE THEIR FOOD! The jerk chicken is absolutely AMAZING! ITS THE BEST JERK IVE EVER HAD! The flavors will make your taste buds explode! I've been eating from here for the last 3 years and I've never been disappointed! The owners are always nice and the patties and plantains are delicious! These people have the BEST sweet plantains, I've been to other places and nothing compares!

Also the prices and portions are beyond reasonable. I normally eat off of my plate for atleast 2 days!“

“Food is on point and fair priced“

We will definitely be back!!!“

“I've never been inside so I can't speak on atmosphere but the food is incredible. This is my new place for escovitch. The sides are top tier as well!! I placed 2 orders back to back and still didn't get a picture because I was ready to eat!“

“I discovered A Taste of the Island by accident a few months back and I have been on it ever since. Every time I go, the service is good. The food is fresh, and the price point is a great value for the portion size and quality of food.

My go-to quick meal is a Beef Patty with Coco Bread. Now, the beef patties are good and flavorful so you gotta get them early as they usually run out during the day (I get two when I go). The coco bread is always thick, fresh and very buttery. It is great by itself as well as with the patty.

For a main entreè my go-to is the Brown Stew Chicken with Rice and Peas and Steamed Cabbage. Babeeeeeeee. It is a 10/10 every single time. It’s never a miss. The chicken is meaty, well flavored, and perfectly tender. The rice and peas are flavor and tender and hiit even harder with that brawn stew gravy. And that cabbage! My my my, this is steamed cabbage done right.

I’m on a personal mission to try everything at A Taste of the Island, however, the Brown Stew Chicken has me in a hold at the moment. LoL!!!

My compliments to the chef!“

“I was visiting from Boston and was pleasantly surprised to find an authentic jamaican food restaurant in the neighborhood. The food was great. I wished I had gone back before I left but they closed at 7pm, which is the only complaint I could offer.“

“I like this place. The food is great. The food is seasoned to perfection. My rice and chicken portion were also excellent servings for the price. You cant beat it. I love the vibe, it seems like a chill calm classy vibe where you can come in be relaxed while you order, get your food, and youre good to go.“

“I had the jerk chicken and vegetable rice food was good but the price is too much“

“the best Caribbean food I've had in the ATL PERIODT“

“Great customers service and it’s packed,Thank you also for the kind gesture giving me my food free it really melted my heart“

“Food Tastes great, but for $34.55. The meat on my plate was very small quantity. They really need to increase the meat portions to support there meals and cost of them.“

“I started coming here about a month ago, and at first I was a little skeptical. However, from my very first visit, Kevin made me feel incredibly welcome. He was friendly, patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely kind.

Every question I had was answered with a smile, and he even offered me a sample of a dish I was hesitant to try. That gesture alone showed me how confident he was in the quality of the food they serve.

I’ve been back several times since that first visit, and the experience has remained consistently excellent. Kevin always greets me with a smile, and at this point, he even knows my order and prepares my plate with care.

Hats off to Kevin for providing exceptional customer service and creating such a welcoming atmosphere. Employees like him are the reason customers keep coming back. Keep up the great work!“

“The food was authentic, fresh, & delicious. The server was kind and the order was completed fast. With each bite I was drifting further and further away from the US. Great meal, especially for my mother’s virgin Caribbean palate.“
