About Just Jerk Cafe's

Just Jerk Cafe's is a restaurant that offers flavorful jerk chicken and tender oxtail dinners. The chicken is soft and well seasoned with jerk flavors, while the oxtails are fall-off-the-bone tender. Customers appreciate the polite and patient cashier who provides helpful information about the menu, and the atmosphere is relaxed with gospel music playing in the background. The restaurant, not well-lit from the outside, might be easily missed if not for specific directions. Some customers recommend trying the jerk catfish, which is very delicious and tends to sell out quickly. The mac and cheese is described as cheesy and good, with some enjoying it even more when it’s creamier. The rice and peas are a solid base, and the spice of the sauce is a great compliment. However, one reviewer mentioned that the red beans and rice lacked the authentic flavor of red beans. Overall, customers have had positive experiences at Just Jerk Cafe's, noting that the food hits the spot and they would recommend others to try it for themselves.
