This is the absolute worst jerk food I’ve ever experienced in my life. I ordered the 2 meat combo , Oxtails + bbq chicken , cabbage , yams and I paid an additional 7.00 for a small Mac&cheese. My 8 year old son whom enjoys a different variety of food even disliked it. The oxtails had nothing but fat on them with very little meat , the chicken was so overcooked and burnt they just reheated and put bbq sauce on it , the yams are so dull and just overall gross. Have you ever experienced a nasty plantine ??? SMFH , I want my money back so bad . I vow to never cheat on Jerk Villa again because the wait was longer than usual . Not to mention I called to place an order before arriving and was still on hold as I approached the counter. Customer service sucks ugh?

The lady at the counter was so rude and the food was disgusting. We spent $60 on food that was not edible. The chicken was burnt and does not taste like jerk at all.The macaroni was beyond dry and hard. The food was gross. Calling my bank to dispute the

Food was pretty good. Just wish they'd update their prices online. Meals are not $16 they're $20 with one side. Anything extra those prices have went up as well by $1 & $2.

One of my favorite Jerk places! We are always greeted with a smile and great service. On top of that the food is absolutely delicious! I’m always craving me some of their sweet potatoes and Mac n cheese. Their jerk shrimp is so good! I recommend 100%.

Chicken very small pieces dry no flavor, pea and rice taste like artificial smoke flavoring and sugar, mac & cheese dry, sweet potatoes/yams big hunks of potatoes with no flavoring. Plantains over cook cabbage ok, TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY WHERE IS UNCLE JOE!

Love Uncle joes, I came here in high school and even order them for my wedding. Out of all the times I’ve been here I’ve only had one bad oxtail dinner.

I have lived in the neighborhood for twenty years. I use to come here often. This place use to be soooooo delicious! But now the quality and consistency is horrible!!! I would say for the past ten years it’s been this way! I try them once a year to see if there is some change. But nope!!!!! They think they’re slick they give you old dry chicken with a few new pieces. Plantains aren’t ripe. Bread was hardish. The chicken person back there knows what he’s doing. Seems like they know the regulars and give them the best pieces. I wish a more consistent jerk place would take their spot. Yesterday was my last time. I am so disappointed and disgusted with you guys! Serve our community with respect and consistency!

Down hill the chicken has become drier than normal and the side aren't seasoned the same it's still decent but not what it used to be.

They loaded me up. First time there. I got the jerk goat and curry chicken combo with the real ni@@a rice and Mac and cheese and that plantain. FIRE!. I ate that for dinner, breakfast and lunch the next day. That's how much love they poured into my Soul. Thanks so much ???

I visited this restaurant the night before Thanksgiving. I ordered 2 half jerk chicken dinners with rice and peas and Cabbage.I have never tasted jerk chicken as bland and flavorless as this was. It was like they forgot to season the chicken. The Cabbage was bland as well. The rice and peas were watery and also lacked flavor.It was so flavorless that I couldn't eat it. I threw away the majority of the food.This was my first time ordering from this establishment. It is very close to home, so I was hoping it would be good. Unfortunately, that was not the case. I don't think I will be giving them a second chance, seeing as there are several jerk chicken restaurants in the area to choose from.Oh well...

I will never in life eat from this place again or recommend this place to anyone the mac and cheese dry chicken dry not to mention the male cashier is very rude how can you have anyone like that greeting your customers. There was an additional charge deducted from my card that my receipt did not reflect no signage posted to indicate extra charges wen using a certain payment method. i had to call my bank to find out why this occurred so please be mindful using your debit/credit card. This was my first and very last time coming here please be aware!!!!!!!
