Jamaican Restaurants in Chicago, IL

“The jerk chicken is the best no cap🥰“

“The food from there very amazing. I buy from there every day and lamb chop,oxtail,plantain,rice,red snapper. It’s so good I will be back“

“Some of the best Jerk Chicken I’ve had on the south side“

“The food is always on point. Some of the employees there are a bit slack sometimes but; this dude has the recipe. I remember when he started on Cicero and he started selling tacos in his girlfriend’s shop. TMI🤣🤣🤣. Great food. He just needs to make a few upgrades on his Pulaski and Jackson spot.“

“This is the very 1st Jerk restaurant where EVERYTHING was good and fresh. I had oxtails, jerk chicken, cabbage, Mac and Cheese, yams, peas and rice, and plantain. My Ma had a full dark jerk chicken dinner as well. The Mac and cheese was seasoned to perfection and cheesy as ever (no egg; baked). The yams not overly sweet, jerk chicken just right. The cabbage is consistently good. Only disappointment was the size oxtail they give is small. (4 little pieces and 2 big. Thats everywhere though) EVERYTHING was hot, and did I say fresh?? glad it's right around my Mas house. I'll be eating here much more often!!“

“Omg!!!!! This is my first time and this location since they relocated from MLK! I ordered at 8:10pm this past Friday and my food was amaziiiing! Do you hear me!!!!! It’s so hard to get quality jerk here in Chicago but I ordered curry shrimp and my partner ordered salmon! The portions were huge I had 3 separate meals!!!!! The service was welcoming and phenomenal! I didn’t get my plantains 🤣🤣🤣 but everything was amazing!!!!!! I will definitely be back!!!“

“I came in last night (03/14/25) before hitting the highway to head home, Food was AMAZING ! The only downside was I purchased the 2 meat + 2 side + an extra side & only received one of my meats. Total was almost $30. Didn’t realize until I was already home 2hrs away eating my meal. I received my jerk chicken, but not my stew meat (I think that’s what it’s called). I was the lady with the baby sitting down. I will say that buddy was back there doing all the work himself and that line kept piling up, so I get it. 😩 I just would've loved to have tasted the other meat & that mean my leftovers (that I’m eating rn) would be bigger 👏🏽🤣 lol“

“First time here and definitely worth trying. The chicken is soft and well seasoned with the jerk flavors. Mac and cheese is cheesy and good. Cabbage is good..now the red beans and rice tasted like rice a roni..it didn’t have that real flavor of red beans and rice plus I think all I got was like three beans. Then it came with some sauce that was sweet, rubbed me the wrong way. But overall I would recommend for anyone to try for themselves.“

“delicious jerk catfish and delicious red snapper“

“Was in town for a visit. I came for the ox tails and they were out of them. No patties. In a new place, I decided to see how their jerk chicken tasted since they didn’t have my favs. The wings were decent and the jerk entree was OK. Not the best jerk I’ve had. Not close. But was definitely tasty and I would recommend. But if you’re used to authentic Jamaican jerk, this isn’t it. The service was fine and rhe atmosphere was 🔥. Definitely a good hang if visiting the chi. I would go back for the atmosphere alone 😎💪🏿🙌🏾“
